Peony in Love Open Location	Tue., May 13, 4:00pm	Downtown & Deep Ellum	Book Events
If there's one thing about the Chinese culture, it's that it pays great honor to tradition and history. So do the written works of New York Times best-selling author Lisa See. Steeped in Chinese history, See's works are love stories, ghost stories and emotive sagas. See discusses her fifth novel, Peony in... More>>

The Misanthrope Dallas Theater Center	Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday from Tue., May 6 until Sun., May 18, 7:30pm (more dates/times)	Uptown & Oak Lawn	Theater
Every time I think of the work of MoliÃ¨re I can't help but also think of John Hughes' The Breakfast Club : specifically the scene in which Judd Nelson's John Bender sits on a card catalog "re-alphabetizing" the cards, pausing at one to drawl, "Moe-lay really pumps my nads." Oddly, The... More>>

Un-Ordinary Horizons Bath House Cultural Center	Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Thu., May 8 until Sat., May 24, 12:00pm-6:00pm	White Rock Lake Area	Art Galleries
Landscape art can be a risky venture. For instance, for every Ansel Adams, there are practically 10 Thomas Kinkades (and just one is plenty scary for us). Thankfully, the artists of Un-Ordinary Horizons each take vastly different approaches to the art form, and none of them claim to be "masters of... More>>

Borderline Greatness Janette Kennedy Gallery	Every week Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday from Fri., May 9 until Fri., May 30, 10:00am-6:00pm	Oak Cliff & South Dallas	Art Galleries
If you haven't been to Marfa, face it: You're just not that cool. Two of the year's most kick-ass movies were filmed there ( There Will Be Blood and No Country for Old Men ), seriously indie bands make special trips there (Boris, Joanna Newsom and others) and even Prada developed a free-standing...

BitterSweet Landmark Magnolia Pictures	Daily from Thu., April 24 until Tue., May 27	East Dallas & Lakewood	Art Galleries
We thrive off the raw, nourishing underbelly of this huge concrete mother of a city. Don't let flash and glitter fool you—the real proof of our survival is the enduring hunger to examine our inner nature. To toast awakening talents, boast of independent voices and post diverse visions that raise civic... More>>

Archie Scott Gobber: In Loving Memory of You Marty Walker Gallery	Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Sat., May 10 until Sat., June 14	Downtown & Deep Ellum	Art Galleries
To be perfectly honest, I'm not terribly familiar with the work of Kansas City artist Archie Scott Gobber . I do know that "Gobber's mixed-media constructions and works on paper slyly deconstruct 'of-the-moment' words and phrases, manipulating both surfaces and meaning in an often biting and humorous...

May Flowers Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens	Daily from Thu., May 1 until Sat., May 31	White Rock Lake Area	Nature Centers/Parks, Women's Events, Festivals & Shows
Recent studies have proven that women may enjoy, but cannot actually be described as loving flowers until they enter the maternal state. The maternal state, however, is not exclusively that of having passed offspring through the vaginal canal, but may be inclusive of being a pet mommy, baby-sitter,... More>>

Global Warming: still/LIFE and Field Notes McKinney Avenue Contemporary	Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., May 9 until Sat., June 21	East Dallas & Lakewood	Art Galleries
I find it fascinating that once Oprah declared environmentalism suitable for the masses the way she did with literacy, it suddenly became cool to talk about your carbon footprint and recycling programs over dinner. It's really too bad Oprah didn't clear her couch of polygamists and diet gurus 20 years ago... More>>

There's No Place Like Home Photographs Do Not Bend Gallery	Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Sat., May 10 until Sat., June 14, 10:00am-6:00pm	Downtown & Deep Ellum	Art Galleries
Two things that can never be mentioned in the same breath without triggering the gag reflex: "John Waters" and "dump." I bet I know the first image that juxtaposition conjured in your mind: the infamous closing scene from Waters' Pink Flamingos . Even if you haven't seen the movie, you probably know... More>>

Ring of Fire--The Music of Johnny Cash Music Hall at Fair Park	Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Tue., May 13 until Sat., May 24, 8:00pm (more dates/times)	Fair Park	Theater, Musical Events
Whether Johnny Cash is singing an old spiritual or a song by Trent Reznor, there's something sacred and sincere in his raw, earthy voice that makes me feel like everything is gonna be all right. And, at first, the idea of a jukebox musical featuring 38 of the Man in Black's songs seemed downright... More>>
