Steel Band Concert

NEW PARIS, Ohio — Sick of snow? Then dig out your Hawaiian shirt and flip-flops and get set for a musical trip to the tropics. The “National Trail in Paradise” steel band festival will be at 7 p.m. Saturday, April 10, 2010, at National Trail High School.
The seventh annual event will feature the mesmerizing island sounds of steel drummers representing not only National Trail High School but also Miami University of Oxford as well as Talawanda, Walnut Hills, Elder and Kekionga high schools. Also featured will be younger musicians from Franklin-Monroe and National Trail playing smaller steel drums called Jumbie Jams.
The night-time music extravaganza at National Trail High School, 6940 Oxford-Gettysburg Road, is the only one of its kind in this part of the country.
Concert admission is $8 for adults and $7 for students and senior citizens.

Fine Art Center seeking Teachers!

The Preble County Fine Art Center is seeking TEACHERS!

Last year we saw a sharp drop-off in class attendance due to the economic conditions and classes were suspended. We are now seeing a growing demand for classes and will be scheduling classes now for the spring and summer. We are currently contacting teachers who have taught in the past and interviewing new teachers to teach adult and/or children’s art classes. Interested individuals should email us at pcaa@takepartinart.net or call us at 937-456-3999 if they are interested in teaching. We are looking for talented individuals interested in teaching drawing, painting, traditional or digital photography, pottery, jewelry, sculpture and much more. We are interested in you talents and sharing them with Preble County so feel free to give us your ideas.  Interested individuals should be prepared for an interview as well as a portfolio and reference review. Class scheduling is flexible, as we host daytime classes, evening classes and weekend workshops.

If  you are not interested in teaching, but know someone who might please pass on this information. We would love to have a huge list of classes for the spring this year.

Thank you for you time and continued support!
