Dave Barnes performed with opening act Andy Davis at the Music Mill on Friday night.

I once heard that the average age of symphony-goer's is 80. Last night's Happy Hour at the Symphony proved that statistic was outdated! Perhaps it was the free food, desserts, coffee and other beverages that wheeled everyone in - young and old alike!

On Monday evening people came together at Clowes Memorial Hall to raise funds for programs working to prevent the spread of HIV and AIDS. This was the annual Spotlight event, in which 19 performing arts groups, media, catering companies, philanthropists, politicians and citizens donated time and talent to create an event strong enough to raise an estimated $400,000 for programs rooted in the understanding and prevention of HIV and AIDS.

A memorial at Indianapolis Public School 27 marked the death of Civil Rights leader, Martin Luther King Jr., and former presidential hopeful, Robert F. Kennedy's famous speech that maintained peace and calm in Indianapolis in 1968 when news broke of King's assassination. Kennedy's wife, Ethel Kennedy and their son, Max, joined Indianapolis citizens on Friday, April 4, at the school gymnasium to pay tribute and remember the lives of two extraordinary men.

Pictura Gallery, located on the square in Bloomington at Sixth and College, hosted a grand opening tonight showcasing Arboles, an exhibit with photographs by Tyagan Miller. Arboles is a collection of images from Miller's continuing series on vexed landscapes, offering ways of paying attention to the grace and resignation of trees. Many local residents came to support Miller's new work, resulting in an impressive turnout.

Gallery owners David Moore and his wife Martha expect to showcase Tyagan's work until the beginning of May.
