SUMMARY:The Abstract Language of Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:The Abstract Language of Ceramics\nExhibit: April 10 – June 3\, 2026\nReception: April 10\, 6-9 PM (Free) \nThe Abstract Language of Ceramics features the work of ceramic artists Karyn Gabriel\, Mark Goudy\, Kris Marubayashi\, Liza Riddle\, and Laura Van Duren. Together\, these artists create striking geometric and biomorphic forms that underline their pursuit of simple forms inspired by nature. Karyn Gabriel’s woven vessels and hangings merge the idea of fiber and weaving with the flexible nature of clay. Goudy’s current sculptures are modeled on mathematical equations\, which he adapts on the computer\, using new technology to design and create molded forms. Kris Marubayashi’s vessels have a sense of movement and balance\, and employ natural textures and an earth-toned palette. Liza Riddle’s modified cubes\, hanging plinths\, and circles use color sparingly to emphasize the beauty of cracks that form while drying. Laura Van Duren shows a playful incorporation of found objects\, textiles\, and clay\, closely resembling the corporal reality of human interaction. \nThis exhibit is sponsored by Hollie Malamud & Chris Kelsch\, and Helen McClosky\, in memory of ceramicist Shelly Simon. \nImage:\nLaura Van Duren\, “Curl”\nKris Marubayashi\, Untitled\nKaryn Gabriel\, “Aspen Brick”\nMark Goudy\, “Flux Series”\nLiza Riddle\, Untitled

SUMMARY:More Great Songs from Unfortunate Musicals
DESCRIPTION:April 10\, noon – 1pm; Live@DCC Free Noon Concert Series: “MORE Great Songs from Unfortunate Musicals” at the Davis Community Church\, 4th and “C” Streets\, Davis. \nSome of the best (and best-loved) songs of the Great American Songbook have come from flop musicals—and some of the best songwriters in the business. \nNow we’re back with more great tunes for your enjoyment. One song from a big-budget flop was a late-career smash for Frank Sinatra. Another went through two movies and three lyric changes before emerging as a hit on its own. Still another began life in a failed Broadway show\, then gained lasting fame when it was inserted into an iconic World War II Hollywood classic. \nCapRadio’s Stephen Peithman (“Connections”) provides the inside stories\, while Lenore Sebastian and Joe Alkire deliver the vocals\, accompanied by LuAnn Higgs. (Stephen sings a bit\, too.) \nIt’s music to brighten your spirits—and make your day. \n
