Weekend Arts Roundup, 1/27-1/30

Posted at 12:00 PM on January 27, 2011 by Steve Seel


The Current's Senior Arts Correspondent Marianne Combs has her regular Thursday check-in for us:


Helen, the woman with the face that launched a thousand ships, can we really blame her for the fall of Troy? What did she do, other than just look good? Twenty Percent Theatre presents a modern re-imagining of the cursed beauty January 28 - February 11 at the Gremlin Theatre in St. Paul.

This Sunday marks the annual ART SLED RALLY!!! Head to Powderhorn Park with your latest creative invention, or just go to check out what others made, and how well they do on the slopes. The rally runs from 2-5pm.
Need some bright colors to get you through the winter blahs? I've got two exhibitions for you. Jimmy Longoria's paintings - which serve as rough-drafts for his amazing street murals - are on display at Hopkins Center for the Arts. Or, check out new paintings by Frank Big Bear in the brand new All My Relations Gallery on Franklin Ave in Minneapolis. Both are sure to warm your spirits and brighten your day.
