ARTS & CULTURAL LISTINGS
OPPORTUNITIES
IN THE GALLERY AT ARTS ILLIANA:
HOPE SPRINGS...
Viewing days: May 2 - June 19th, 2025 | Gallery days/hours: Tuesday - Saturday, 10:00 am - 4:00 pm (GALLERY IS CLOSED SUNDAYS & MONDAYS)
HOPE SPRINGS... explores the interplay between fragility and strength, light and shadow, despair and possibility. Through painting, sculpture, mixed media, and photography, the artists capture the essence of hope—delicate yet unyielding, fleeting yet eternal.
Each piece in this exhibition tells a story of emergence, whether inspired by personal struggle, social change, or the cyclical rebirth found in nature. The imagery of sprouting seeds, sunlit horizons, and determined blooms serves as a metaphor for the human spirit’s ability to endure and flourish, even in the harshest conditions.
As winter’s grip loosens and new life begins, Hope springs... invites viewers to reflect on their own journeys of renewal, reminding us that hope, like spring, always returns—sometimes quietly, sometimes defiantly, but always with the promise of something new.

CROSSROADS REPERTORY THEATRE
Opening June 20
THE WIZARD OF OZ (RSC Version)
By Frank L. Baum
With Music and Lyrics by Harold Arlen and E. Y. Harburg
Based upon the Classic Motion Picture owned by Turner Entertainment Co. and distributed in all media by Warner Bros.
June 20-29, 2025
Follow the yellow brick road in this delightful stage adaptation of L. Frank Baum’s tale, featuring the iconic musical score from the MGM film! L. Frank Baum’s classic novel comes to life in The Wizard of Oz. This faithful adaptation by the Royal Shakespeare Company features all the most beloved songs and moments from the 1939 classic film, brought to life onstage. Young Dorothy Gale is swept away by a tornado from her Kansas farm to the magical land of Oz. There, she encounters a host of whimsical characters: good and bad witches, animals that talk, scarecrows that walk, and things magical to behold. To find her way home, she must journey along the Yellow Brick Road to see the mysterious and all-powerful Wizard in Emerald City. Along the way, she makes new friends, but must also brave many dangers, including the Wicked Witch of the West, who will stop at nothing to get her hands on Dorothy’s magical ruby slippers. To make it home safely, Dorothy must learn an important lesson: there’s no place like home. The Wizard of Oz has entertained audiences for generations and continues to thrill audiences worldwide. Audiences will experience all their favorite Wizard of Oz songs: “Over the Rainbow,” “Munchkinland (Ding Dong! The Witch Is Dead),” “If I Only Had a Brain/a Heart/the Nerve,” and “We’re Off to See the Wizard (Follow the Yellow Brick Road).”
