SUMMARY:City Center Art Spring 2026 - Studio art classes for young artists in grades 2 – 12
DESCRIPTION:City Center Art is Space One Eleven’s afterschool studio art program for students of all skill levels and is designed to build visual communication skills and foster creative thinking. Throughout the semester\, young artists learn the elements of art and principles of design\, strengthen foundation skills\, and further their understanding of art criticism\, art theory\, and art history. \nTeaching artists balance instruction between creating and responding—young artists make\, discuss\, and write about their work—thereby facilitating a transformative learning experience for young artists. \nSpace One Eleven’s philosophy is to provide an environment in which young artists can learn\, create\, explore\, and forge their own path into the world of art. All CCA young artists participate in the end of year exhibition and open house at the end of the Spring Semester. \nStudents are welcome to join the art class any time during the school year if seats are available. Class cost will be pro-rated for those who join later in the semester.

SUMMARY:Erin Jane Nelson: Living and Working Exhibition Opening
DESCRIPTION:AEIVA presents Living and Working\, a survey exhibition of work by Erin Jane Nelson made between 2015 and 2025\, while she was based in a suburb of Atlanta. Inspired by the ecologies and shifting landscapes of the southeastern US\, Nelson’s work draws from regional craft traditions and science fiction alike to consider how sentimentality and personal narrative are entangled with ongoing environmental change. With a formally inventive approach to photography\, textiles\, and ceramics\, her work finds quiet persistence in the intimate labor of living and working on a changing planet. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public. Join us for an opening celebration on Thursday\, May 21 from 5 to 7pm. \nAEIVA will be offering drop-in tours on Saturdays all summer long\, starting on May 23. Tours are led by AEIVA’s student guides and typically last between 20-30 minutes. No registration required.

What separates us from the other crawl companies is that we are the creators of food & booze events such as our famous Taco & Tequila Crawl and our Boozy Brunch Crawl that date back to 2018-2019 when we took it nationwide. There may be others out there trying to imitate the events but be sure our event is the only crawl that includes tacos in every ticket type\, VIP experience\, & so much more. Check our Facebook & Google reviews for confirmation on just how much value and fun we bring. \nPlease visit our blog on how to be a Taco & Tequila Crawl expert at the event.

SUMMARY:C.S. Lewis: Beyond the Wardrobe
DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets \n \nDoors open at 6:30 p.m.\, show at 7:30 p.m. \nC.S. Lewis: Beyond the Wardrobe – the year is 1963 and C.S. Lewis\, the famous British author\, is hosting a group of American writers at his home near Oxford. They are about to experience a captivating evening with a man whose engaging conversation and spontaneous humor made him one of the great raconteurs of his day. \nSeated in his living room and in front of a warm fire he recalls the people and events that inspired his thought and shaped his life; of his friendship with J.R.R. Tolkien; why he nearly abandoned the Narnia Chronicles; how he came to embrace Christianity and of the American woman who turned his life upside down. \nDescribed by critics as ‘Extraordinary!’ ‘A Must See!’ ‘A Master Class!’ An Evening with C.S. Lewis has proved again and again to be an enthralling theatrical experience and one which has led many thousands to discover (or rediscover) the continuing impact of a man who died over 50 years ago and whose collected works made him one of the literary giants of the 20th Century. \nParking Info: \n\nThe Lyric Theatre is not responsible for parking and does not provide any free parking for concerts.\nParking meters are free after 6pm on weekdays and all day on Saturday and Sunday.\nPlease be aware of tow-away zones. Lots marked “permit parking only” are tow-away zones and they will tow your vehicle at your expense.\n\n \n
