1ST TUESDAY RETURNS WITH THE STARS AT NIGHT
Please join First Tuesday SMTX for the award-winning feature documentary THE STARS AT NIGHT directed by Betty Buckley on Tuesday, April 2 at The Price Center & Garden. The Stars at Night explores the connection between astronomy, mythology, and original storytelling. Through expert interviews and an expedition to one of North America’s last truly dark skies we try to discover what impact light pollution is having on our culture, and what stories may have never been told, had the storytellers never seen the stars.

BITS & PIECES TO CELEBRATE RECYCLING & PLANET EARTH

Drop of art Tues., Wed, April 30 & May 1 from 10am -5pm. The show will hang May 4 -- June 22.
