Summer is a great time to do things when school is out and schedules seems more open.<\/p>\n
This summer our girls had a chance to be involved in a play.\u00a0 The Oak Grove Improvement Association\u201d of Malden put together a Play in the Parks event. The play was \u201cMidsummer Night\u2019s Dream\u201d.\u00a0 There was a need for little fairies so our girls were recruited.\u00a0 It was fun to see them learn and play and be a part of a theatrical project.<\/p>\n
Years ago my husband had been involved with a community theater.<\/p>\n
I enjoy plays too.<\/p>\n
When our friend, Brian, co-owned a small theater company in the late 90\u2019s, we got involved.\u00a0 We helped out with the ticket booth and concession stand.\u00a0 Occasionally I did some art work for a couple of the play’s promotional materials.<\/p>\n
It was fun to be able to get involved again.
\nI did some art work for promotion of the play.\u00a0 And our girls got a chance to learn and perform in a play.<\/p>\n
It was a great experience.\u00a0 We feel very proud and grateful.<\/p>\n
Play and Rest.<\/p>\n

\nDarla Dixon organized a group of artists who will create no-charge compassionate portraits for the families who have lost a loved one in Operation Iraqi Freedom\/Operation Enduring Freedom. We are looking for artists to join our efforts, and also for non-artists who will help spread the word about this free service and token of our gratitude to families who have sacrificed so much.”<\/p>\n
