Theatre Production - Big Love
<p>Big Love, written by American playwright, Charles Mee, tells the story of fifty brides fleeing a forced, arranged marriage to fifty cousin-grooms only to become refugees in a nearby country. Big Love, based on Aeschylus's play "The Suppliants", raises questions on the nature of love and rage, relationships and gender politics, domestic violence, anger, heartache and the responsibility of one people to another. Set against an arresting visual art installation, this production promises to be as engaging as a multicultural wedding party, where music and dance take the stage together with razor sharp dialogues.</p> 2018-12-05 22:00:00 -06002/16/197:30 p.m.Coe College, Dows Fine Arts Center, Dows TheaterCedar Rapids -

American Visionary: John F. Kennedy’s Life and Times
<p>American Visionary: John F. Kennedy’s Life and Times brings together seventy-seven images culled from the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library, Getty Images, private collections, and the Kennedy family archives. The dramatic scope of Kennedy’s life is evident in these photographs—from his first congressional bid as a decorated war hero in 1946, his fairytale marriage to Jacqueline Bouvier in 1953, his run for the White House in 1960 and role as commander in chief, to the tragedy of his death in Dallas in 1963. These images remain as vivid evidence of John Kennedy’s imprint upon the American conscience.</p> 2019-02-17 16:00:00 -0600

Raising School-Ready Readers
<p>Research shows that good literacy skills have a long-term impact on your child’s development! Reading proficiency by third grade is the most important predictor of high school graduation and career success. Also, children who have good literacy skills are less likely to experience grade retention or school failure, drop out, or exhibit delinquent behavior. When they become adults, they are less likely to be unemployed or underemployed.! Each workshop will begin with a FREE family meal, followed by an hour-long parent workshop, and ending with a parent-child literacy activity. Childcare will be provided nearby during the parent workshop. This workshop offers an opportunity for caregivers to come together to share resources and experiences! Materials, food, and childcare are provided FREE of charge for this workshop. For families with a child ages 3-5 years, siblings welcome!</p> 2019-02-18 19:30:00 -06002/18/195:30 p.m.Hiawatha Public LibraryHiawatha -
