A WORLD PREMIERE Written by Charles Borkhuis Directed by James P. Darvas On stage: July 15-Aug. 7, 2022 Pablo Picasso lived quite a life. During his childhood, his father taught him the techniques of the art of painting. His father supplied him all the tools and practical knowledge to succeed. It wasn’t very long before young Pablo surpassed his father in talent and success. At the turn of the century, in a land full of sights, sounds, and people who Pablo had never experienced before, Pablo’s personal and artistic lives would undergo a drastic metamorphosis. Pablo and his best friend Casagemas traveled to Paris and their eyes and hearts were opened to things they had never imagined. The few months they spent together in Paris put their lives on a trajectory that neither of them saw coming. For Pablo, success on an unimaginable level. Unfortunately, the same could not be said for Casagemas. Related links: OnStage Playhouse on Instagram OnStage Playhouse on Twitter OnStage Playhouse on Facebook OnStage Playhouse's 2022-2023 season

On view at the Kellogg Library at CSU San Marcos through July 2023. View the exhibit online here. From the organizers: The exhibition is a collection of plant-based sculpture and assemblage created by Britton Neubacher, M.A. (B.A. and M.A. in Women’s Studies with a focus on community organizing) and full-time artist. Neubacher’s sustainably-minded work explores nature’s organizing principles of adaptation, integration, and renewal through fractal geometries and “suspended animation” materials. "Working with plants as my medium has shown me just how adaptive and tenacious the natural world is. There is no forcing my will onto the things of nature. If I want to enjoy my process I will see them as collaborators and allow them to shape me back. In exploring the animating relationship between people and plants, and the natural order/disorder of our complex partnership, I imagine that something more hopeful can be born between us." - Britton Neubacher For detailed library hours information, go here.
