Summer is really here, folks! The
Twilight Dance Series opens tonight while Fourth of July festivities
start on Saturday and finish with our own parade down Main Street on
Wednesday. In between, there's a heck of a lot of really good
theatre going on and an extraordinary dance performance taking place
this weekend at Highways. The Palette is going to take a rest next
week after all this activity so we'll see you again on July 12. In
the meantime - here's just a few things to keep you occupied!
