Photos from last year's event. But those stores we pass by on our way to work or to some other place we feel we’re in a rush to get to, have a lot to offer and they are instrumental in keeeping the place you live alive. They will be open on Black Friday hoping not everyone is heading to the malls or outlets in other towns. And they will be open on Small Business Saturday praying everyone isn't shopped out and remembered they also rely on you to keep their doors open and their business on the tax roll. And many will be open their doors to help support artists who may not have a storefront of their own on Artists Sunday. You can purchase truly unique gifts with ten-fold more thought put into the purchase of them than the after thought put in at the supermarket checkout aisle where the twenty dollar gift cards to giant box stores probably owned by a committee of millionaire stakeholders who you’ll never meet. Dollars spent here stay here. It's a local shopping holiday trifecta if done right. Oil City is one community embracing the nationwide Artists Sunday movement to think outside the box with your holiday gift giving. Whether it is affordable handcrafted jewelry or prints of paintings worth investing in as one-of-a-kind artworks. Several Oil City businesses have invited artists from Erie, Meadville, Pittsburgh and other communities to show off their wares in their shops while they open on Sunday, their normal day off. Also artists with studios in the National Transit building will open their studios for visitors and shoppers. Artists Sunday will also offer live entertainment with singers and writers sharing their talents. It’s a chance to network, meet cool people and perhaps find a conversation starter at this years holiday gatherings. Several artists will be demonstrating their work and be available to talk making it a great educational opportunity as well. The event kicks off at 11 a.m. with shops open and the reading of a proclamation about Oil City’s support of Artists Sunday by Mayor John Kluck. Oil City’s artist relocation plan has brought dozens of artists to the area and added to the city's tax roll and culture. Host sites include: The National Transit Building’s artist studios, Transit Art Gallery & Gifts, Wye Bridge Hobbies, John Kluck’s 237 Catering and Events, Cork n Screw Winery, Dloniak Barbershop, Oil Region Alliance’s newly renovated Downs Building, William’s Travel, Clifford’s Carpets, Core Goods, Woods & River Coffee, Evergreen Pottery and Innis Park Studios. Maps with artist listings can be picked up at any of these locations. The event runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. More information: visit facebook.com/artsoilcity or call Barbara Pierce at 814.677.3152 x105 or email at [email protected] This is the fifth year Oil City artists have participated in the event Below are lists of artists participating and locations. Jamie Bastello, Northern Wincek and Noah Grice will also be performing Check the Facebook link above for more.
The remainder of the cast brings life, and in some cases death, to the memorizing characters that round out this chilly tale of good versus evil that seems to revive the immortality of Bram Stoker's 127-year-old novel. Hess has created a world of wonder and fright, including recreating the proscenium as as stone castle archway into this vampire dark world. The use of projections brings the entire audience into Dracula's lair. This is a bit of art to behold. Dracula at the Barrow-Civic Theatre in Franklin opens tonight (Thursday October 31) at 7:30 p.m. There are also shows Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. as well as two matinees Saturday and Sunday ar 2 p.m. Tickets are available at barrowtheatre.my.salesforce-sites.com/ticket#/events/a0S8Z00000JAS70UAH See many more photos at sayerrich.zenfolio.com/p540700147 See many more photos at sayerrich.zenfolio.com/p540700147

There are performances for the ages - those ones that people talk about for years. Little orphan (Lainie Smith's) portrayal of Annie is likely one of those. To ask a preteen human to dedicate months to performing an iconic character is quite a feat. And she has delivered. so have several others in this fun cast.
Below are a few more photos from a recent live performance. It is quite the show. Getting a chance to watch a great performance is a gift that extends beyond the price of admission.
The Franklin Civic Operetta's production of "Annie", which opens tonight at the Barrow-Civic Theatre, has not just one, not just two, but several individual performances that will knock your socks off. Lainey Smith is as close to genius as a youngster can get. She exudes Annie. The mother figure to other kids, and the vulnerable orphan, and little girl who longs for her own family. Smith's performance, if anything like dress rehearsal, emphasizes exactly why quality local theater productions are an essential part of a community. These characters are us. These people performing are our neighbors. And they give us an escape to a world we all understand. Titusville's Joe Thompson, a nice guy in real life, transforms into a bawdy despicable Rooster who is always scheming to get ahead instead of looking for legitimacy. Thompson's over-the-top-performance will have you laughing out loud. And there is a visit to the Roosevelt White House with Annie giving the adults a good splash of hope looking towards tomorrow. The Mona Lisa makes an appearance in a spectacular funny way as Warbucks is so rich he struggles understand what it is he actually has. Priceless in more ways than one. And, perhaps the best part for dog loving Franklin, Isaac the dog makes his acting debut. Annie is a wonderful Applefest celebration of talent. A great reason to be in Franklin two weekends in a row. The show opens tonight with a 7:30 p.m. performance. Additional shows are will be done at 7:30 p.m. on Sept. 28, and Oct. 3, 4, and 5. There is a 2 p.m. matinee on Sept. 29, which is nearly sold out already. These images were taken during dress rehearsal Tuesday.
