Spectrum Playhouse Hosts Special Event Today, 8/4

A Day of Entertainment with the Spectrum Playhouse and Good Purpose Gallery in Lee today, August 4th:  Art in the Alley: 10am - 4pm Come check out the eclectic and ever changing offerings of local artisans in the Spectrum Back Alley.

11am - Family First Series: The Watershed Waltz - Come see this puppet performance that examines our impact on our local water sources. Good for all ages! Marmalade Productions specializes in educational and inspiring puppet / school shows. Their goal in family shows is to send the audience away with a smile on their lips and a story of their own bubbling up. If a parent picks up a spoon that night at dinner and starts to talk to the potatoes they have reopened the door where children live all the time!
