Saturday, Mar 19 at 9 AM - 1 PM SCREEN PAINTING
Workshop

Screen painting is yet another peculiarly Baltimore practice. To maintain privacy in their right-on-the-street row houses and still have air circulation, many home-owners commissioned artists to paint their front door screens and sometimes their first floor window screens, often with idyllic country cottage scenes. Dee Herget, one of the finest screen painters still practicing, conducts a workshop on screen painting. $40, registration required.

Mathnavi
DC's Open Theatre offers an adaptation of this work by Jelaluddin Rumi, the "Shakespeare of the Middle East" and "America's bestselling poet." (Who knew that Americans had such good taste in Muslim poetry!) Directed and designed by Joe Martin with original live Persian music by Kasem Davoudian. Billed to encompass movement, sacred Indian dance, parables of peace and unity, tragedy, amazing reversals of fortune, laughter and visual delights. And I believe it! General public $16, members $12
