' - ' "-- ; jonoi o D o o D 0 O D o 0 D o o a o o a o o D o a o Arts fair to include puppeteer, Arts and crafts, music and dance underly a demonstration fair this weekend at Clinton School, east of 27 and Holdrege Streets. Dead Man's Runn, Lincoln cultural education group, is sponsoring the opening. The program begins at 7 p.m. Friday with a puppet show by nationally known puppeteer George Latshaw. He will continue to perform during the main exhibit, which is open to the public from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday. t"Y- r l " ! - r Activities will include portrait painting by Julie Haskell and UolClQllS Pottery making by Carolyn Hadsell, both UNL students, and creative candlemaking by Jim Healey, UNL English Instructor. Artwork will be for sale. A religious rock group will perform, and local Latvian dancers also are featured. Puppet shows will charge admission, but the rest of the fair is free. The point of all this activity is art education, particularly for low-income children. Dead Man's Runn aims to form arts and crafts workshops. "If you have a talented child and don't have any pennies, the talent all goes down the drain," said Carol McShane, member of Dead Man's Runn. She said, the group wants to remedy this situation, by hiring professional artists for high caliber art instruction, which will be free for those who can't afford it. "We want low-income children to have a chance to spend 20 minutes a week with a professional artist,'-' she said. With finances from a local committee and with indepenr ; ;t contributions and sales, Dead Man's Runn can incorporate to form what McShane called "an underground cultural school." The classes would be accessible by bus, for Lincolniies unable to drive. The first children's program will be a "creative corner" in the Saturday and Sunday grand opening. Children will be provided with cardboard and paints to make whatever they want. Artists and craftsmen interested in demonstrating their skills during the opening ate welcome, McShane said. To arrange space they should call her at 466-4815 before 6 p.m., or Sami Wehrmeister at 475-9834 after 6 p.m. The group needs a woodcarver, McShane said. Dead Man's Runn is named for a creek running through north Lincoln, she said, and the name expresses the hope that a flow of cultural education can reach Lincoln's low-income community. , LINCOLN COMMUNITY PLAYHOUSE 2500 South 56th St. Last Weekend fn ir pavhouse WOODY ALLEN'S O n2szrt For Reservations Call 489-9608 September 7,8,0 14,15,16 21,22,23 28,29,30 I0E30I aonoc iodoi 30E30I 30DOI 30C30C: 10E30I j o o D o HUMAN POTENTIALS SERIES Thursday, September 27 DR.
