Frank Lloyd Wright 'Through the Eyes of a Child'
The Barn at Fallingwater
Route 381
Mill Run, PA 15464
Telephone: 724-329-8501
Website: www.fallingwater.org
  The exhibition showcases the students’ ability to discover and capture the power of architecture through the art of photography. To create the art for the exhibit, a professional photographer trained seventh grade students on the basics of photography and composition, and equipped them with a high-quality digital camera. The students then explored and photographed Fallingwater. Two other Wright buildings, Unity Temple and the Westcott House, also opened their doors to the group. Some used cameras for the first time, and for many, it was their first encounter with Frank Lloyd Wright’s architecture. Taken with an unbiased approach, these photographs bring fresh perspectives to three of Wright’s architectural landmarks.

While this musical biography covers plenty of Wynette's musical career, and includes 26 of Wynette's hit songs, it also looks at Wynette's personal life, which includes a bizarre 1978 abduction that saw Wynette taken from Nashville shopping center and beaten - a crime that was never solved. A thoroughly moving and entertaining musical, Stand By Your Man promises something for everyone.

  Deadly bagpipes, a bumbling mayor, incompetent cops, the Highland Clan's Big Mac and the infamous Highland Hitman - who, it is said, always dons a kilt and plays the bagpipes before making a kill - all converge on a hotel room where the city's new accountant discovers embezzlement. The day does not start off well when two inexperienced police officers bumble the videotape surveillance and record more than they bargained for. To crack the case the officers must overcome their fear of the dark, guns, enclosed spaces, and the opposite sex. Unnecessary Farce delivers a huge laugh with its raucous comedic twists and turns.
