Make Valentine’s Day Extra Special For Kids in the Hospital!

February 9, 2021 By Dayton Most Metro

Kids love to make and give valentines. Every year, Dayton Children’s Child Life team plans extra special Valentine’s Day crafts for kids who are in the hospital over the holiday so they can have the chance to make something special for a loved one.

This year, you have a chance to make something special too — a personalized Valentine for a child in the hospital!

Simply click the photo, choose your design and add your name. Children’s will  make sure it’s delivered to a boy or girl who is spending Valentine’s Day at Dayton Children’s!

Please help ensure every child spending Valentine’s Day in the hospital gets a card that shows exactly how much they are loved. It’s so easy, and it means so much.

P.S. After you send your card, please share this post so others have the chance to get involved too!

You will even get the chance to participate in the show by asking Dwight your own personal questions or even requesting your favorite song! You know him and love him as Elvis and after this show you will know and love him as Dwight Icenhower!

Per health department recommendations, we are permitted to sell 60 tickets for each live show, one show will be at 1:30pm ET and the second show will be at 6pm ET. In addition to the live, in-person performances, we will also be livestreaming the 6pm show. Tickets for the live show are $50 each. To purchase limited in-person tickets for these special events, you must call 740-753-1924. Online tickets are not available for these concerts. The livestream will be available to watch free of charge at stuartsoperahouse.org, but donations to Stuart’s Opera House are welcomed and encouraged.

Want to ask Dwight Icenhower a question or make a song request?
Email [email protected]

Please include your first and last name, where you are from, your question for Dwight, and your song request.

IMPORTANT INFO:

Stuart’s Opera House, like all performance venues, have been shuttered since March of 2020. The only way we can all safely get the live performance industry back is if everyone agrees to adhere to strict safety protocol. We greatly appreciate your respect for and support of the following guidelines.

This is a socially distanced event that will take place indoors in our historic theater. You should enter with the guest(s) you intend to sit with for the event. A nose and mouth covering is required to be properly worn for all of those in attendance. No one will be allowed entry without a face covering. Stuart’s Opera House will have face coverings available for guests who need one. The mask must be worn at all times, including in the Theater and the Grand Lobby. If you are taking a drink, the mask may be removed to do so, but must immediately be put back on after you are done taking the drink.

Guests are encouraged to purchase tickets in pods. Pods are a small group of people who agree to sit together and socialize with one another exclusively. These are the people who you have been regularly exposed to throughout the pandemic. Each group of seats will be spaced at least 6 feet apart in the theater. We ask that if you purchase your tickets in a pod, that you arrive with the other members of your pod, so you can be seated at the same time.

Upon entry, each guest will be asked to sign a form indicating that they have not experienced any symptoms of COVID-19 prior to the show. If guests have experienced symptoms within 48 hours of the show, they are not permitted to attend the show. Please call Stuart’s Opera House and we will issue you a refund for your ticket(s).

Because of the current pandemic, we are asking audience members to stay in their seats the entire show. We will not have our usual bar service, but we will provide a complimentary bottle of water for every attendee.

 
Dwight Icenhower will perform at Stuart’s Opera House in Nelsonville, Ohio on Saturday, March 13
th at 1:30pm and 6:00pm. The 6:00pm show will also be livestreamed. Tickets to either live show are $50 each. To purchase limited in-person tickets for these special events, you must call 740-753-1924. Online tickets are not available for these concerts. The livestream will be available to watch free of charge at stuartsoperahouse.org, but donations to Stuart’s Opera House are welcomed and encouraged.

DSA’s 16th Annual Printmaking Exhibition, Litho-Lino-Mono-More

February 5, 2021 By Dayton Most Metro

Opening February 5, the Dayton Society of Artists (DSA) is pleased to exhibit their 16th annual printmaking exhibition. The call for art was open to all adult printmakers who live, work, or attend school in Ohio. Julie Harris, graduate of Wright State University and assistant professor at Kean University, juried the entries for the exhibition.

Christine D’Epiro Abbott, Columbus 
nearest and dearest, 2020

Litho-Lino-Mono-More 2021 features thirty prints by eighteen artists who use a wide variety of printmaking methods such as screenprinting, etching, mezzotint, linoleum and woodblock printing, collograph, and serigraph. The artists included in the exhibition are Vanessa Bahr, Janet Ballweg, Stephanie Berrie, Brent Billingsley, Claire Bowman, Christine D’Epiro Abbott, Cassidy Ely, Nicole Fiely, Autumn Geer, Robin Landis, Gabrielle Lawrence, Arturo Rodriguez, Libby Slauenwhite, Ryan Stoneberger, and Kathryn Yarkosky. The artists represent a wide swath of Ohio’s cities including Toledo, Berea, Athens, Columbus, and Cincinnati. DSA is also pleased to report that three local DSA members, Shannon Grecula, Melanie Morrett, and Charles Wright, were selected to participate in the exhibition.

DSA’s annual printmaking exhibition was first started by David Smith, a well-known Dayton artist and an avid supporter of the DSA, sixteen years ago to honor his wife and printmaking artist, Kay Smith. An award will be given in memory of Kay’s legacy as well as a first and second place prize. In lieu of a reception, award announcements will be made over a facebook video and will be included on the home page of the DSA’s website.

Paul Rienzo
Yellow, Goodbye, 2021

Showing concurrently is Paul Rienzo in the DSA’s project space. Rienzo is a Chemical Engineer and a self-taught artist. His photo-realistic Millennial Parade series “convey[s] observations about evolving American society. The parade serves as a metaphor for trends of constructing of new realities and their blending, inflated importance, complexity, teaming up, the daily marching by of what matters, and anxiety.”

The exhibitions will run from February 5 through February 27. DSA’s gallery is open 12-5 Friday and Saturday, and 6-9 on First Fridays. The gallery is free and open to the public but is operating by appointment only during the pandemic. Appointments may be made on their website’s homepage, daytondsa.org or by calling 937-228-4532. The exhibition will be viewable online at daytondsa.org/llmm2021.

Today, more than ever, help is needed to support the work to preserve and protect the green spaces we love. In the midst of a global pandemic, our parks, forests, wetlands, hiking trails, rivers and streams are there for us. They give us a place of peace, discovery, joy and rejuvenation for our physical and mental wellbeing. And we need them to be there for us in the future. We need clean air to breathe, clean water to drink, and healthy soils to grow our food.

For the month of February, the Gifts That Grow campaign unites local and regional not-for-profit groups to help raise awareness and needed funds to continue their work. The campaign is a collaboration managed by the Partners for the Environment including:

    • Little Miami River Watershed Network
    • Marianist Environmental Education Center
    • Tecumseh Land Trust
    • Rivers Institute at the University of Dayton
