COSI’s Science Spots traveling science exhibition comes to Sidney.  Your little ones are sure to enjoy the wide assortment of Science spots listed below:

Air Cannon – Participants press against a rubber membrane that covers a large drum. As the pressure builds within the drum, air shoots out the hole in the bottom and blasts passers by with a puff of air.

These fun active activities are suitable for adults and children.

Gather the kids for the Madcap Puppets being presented by the Gateway Arts Council.

A Workshop beginning at 10:00 AM will be lead by Madcap personnel where children will create their own puppet masterpieces.  You never know what Madcap puppets you’ll encounter! Children only. Admission is $10.

The performance Twice Upon A Time will begin at 11:15 AM. Aiden Legend, an only child, is making funny faces into a mirror when it falls and breaks, accidentally propelling Aiden’s mirror image into the real world. Is there room in our world for two Aiden Legends? Can Aiden get the Accidental Twin back into the mirror!? Children under 12 are $4. Adults $6.

Born in Novokuznetsk, Siberia, Russia, and raised in Kharkov, Ukraine, Elena embodies much of that which is classic pre-Soviet Russia and Ukraine in her art. She derives her inspiration from nature, music and dance, and brings them to life in her paintings.

This 42nd Annual Exhibit will be presented at the Amos Memorial Library thru December 27th.

Details coming soon.  Please check back…

If you enjoy quality community theater, this one’s for you.

Truvy Jones runs a successful beauty salon in Chinquapin, Louisiana, where all the ladies in the neighborhood have a standing Saturday appointment. Along with her anxious and eager assistant, Annelle, Truvy styles the hair of many of the women about town: wealthy widow and former first lady of Chinquapin, Clairee Belcher, local curmudgeon Ouiser Boudreaux (“I’m not crazy, I’ve just been in a bad mood for forty years”), intelligent and compassionate career woman M’Lynn, and her daughter Shelby, the prettiest girl in town. Shelby’s engagement is the talk of the town, but the joy and excitement of her wedding quickly turn to concern as she faces a risky pregnancy and a myriad of health complications. Eventually, when Shelby dies from complications related to her diabetes, M’Lynn has to deal with the most difficult of life’s challenges: the loss of one’s only child. As the women of Chinquapin makes their ways over life’s many hurdles together, they find comfort (and a fair amount of verbal ribbing) in one another. “You have no idea how wonderful you are,” M’Lynn tells the ladies at the end of the play. Truvy responds, with a smile, “Of course we do.”
