In April and May, the Pacific Beach/Taylor Branch Library will present an exhibition of paintings created by longtime local teacher and Pacific Beach resident Nona Perrin. She will be showing 30 of her color-soaked works (many of them featuring wild animals) in an exhibit she has named, "Let's Get Wild!" Nona loves art and has spent her life immersed in creating, learning about or teaching art. She has evolved her own style while teaching art to thousands of young students in local public and private schools for over 25 years. She also taught art at most of the branches of the San Diego public libraries during that time. In addition to painting (using various media), she continues to study and create work in stained glass, ceramics, mosaics and sculpture. Nona loves to learn, and describes herself as, "Sometimes a teacher, but always a student." Pacific Beach Library on Facebook

All at once and much, much too completely." The Big Easy is anything but for Blanche DuBois, the quintessential creation of Tennessee Williams' classic tale of lustful deceit and the longing for redemption. On the run from her mysterious past, the destitute Blanche arrives on the doorstep of her younger sister Stella who is pregnant with her first child. Desperate for attention and demanding the devotion that has forever eluded her, Blanche inserts herself between the mother-to-be and her hot-blooded husband Stanley and sparks a flame of passion and possession that cannot be contained and can only consume everything in its path.
