What a fun weekend! Troy and I had very little on our "to-do" lists weekend so we had lots of time to play and do all the things we never seem to have enough time for...
- Friday night we were lucky to participate in the Vivace Grapes of Wrath Preview Event, that took place at the Salt Lake Art Center (http://www.slartcenter.org). There is a photography exhibit there right now that was just amazing. Most of the photos were from the depression and, oh my, do they just pull at your heart strings! Right in the gallery there was a special preview concert of the brand new opera, The Grapes of Wrath. And we also had the privilege of meeting the composer (Ricky Ian Gordon), who was there to talk about the process of composing the opera. He was so entertaining to listen to and he gave a glimpse into his writing process that people rarely get to see. It was a really neat experience and I am so glad we went! After that we still had time to hit a few more galleries in the Gallery Stroll (http://www.gallerystroll.org) and we found some amazing art work that we just love!
- Saturday we browsed through some book stores, hit another art gallery and even browsed through a furniture store or two. :) We had tickets to a play that night and just had a nice relaxing, fun day before heading off to the play. The play was very entertaining, as they always are at Desert Star Playhouse and we just loved it! (http://desertstarplayhouse.com)
Next week we are going to see "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" and we can't wait! (http://www.broadwayacrossamerica.com)
