Liberty High School Basketball: Spangle’s Small-Town Excitement

Signs on Gym Walls to Boost Spirit

I’m not much of a sports fanatic. Growing up a theatre geek, I generally prefer to go see a play than a basketball game any time I have a choice between the two options. This has frustrated my younger sister, a cheerleader for Liberty High School in Spangle (about [...]

Entertaining Food at the Shogun &; Entertaining Dance at the INB

Some of the girls I work with and I decided we had been working too hard and needed to reward ourselves with an upscale, girl’s night out. I opted for seeing “Burn the Floor” at the INB, and someone else inputted going out to dinner at the Shogun. Together, they ended up being the perfect dinner-show combination for our night on the town.

Spin the Birthday Wheel at Fast Eddies Pub

It’s amazing how many people I know with winter birthdays. In December alone I know upwards of six people with holiday birthdays. As far as January is concerned, I’m not even counting anymore. I’ve lost track. Thankfully, there’s a place in Spokane where birthdays are welcome.
Among my group of friends there are certain late night [...]

Discovering Sophisticated Arts and Crafts at Artisan Wares

A common misconception is that the coined term “arts and crafts” refers to gift items of a lesser quality because they are handmade. Artisan Wares is a gallery that is sure to prove any thinking along those lines as false. The immediate sense I felt upon entering the place was their sophisticated ambiance. There are hundred of items on display, but they are displayed in an orderly, correct manner.

Sweeny Todd Performs at the Fox

I love the Sweeny Todd Musical. I listen to the Broadway soundtrack daily. I saw the Tim Burton movie twice in theaters and bought the DVD as soon as it was released. I went to the Civic Theater production in the beginning of November, but as good as that was, I still had not had enough of the musical thriller. When I found out that the touring Broadway show was coming to the Martin Woldson Fox Theatre in downtown Spokane, I jumped at the opportunity and bought 4 tickets at $38 a piece.

The Nutcracker Transformed and Bedazzled Before Its Audience at the INB Performing Arts Center

Nutcracker ballet here in Spokane at the INB Performing arts center. The entire ballet was completely redone, everything from the dances and costumes, to the story itself. The INB chose to show the original Russian version of the ballet, and obviously, the theater budget had increased since last time. We all sat at the edges of our seats mesmerized by the beauty on the stage before us. Even the small children in the audience, usually more on the squirmy side, gasped “wow” with each changing set and dance. Even they were breathless.

Take a Break from the Hustle & Bustle at the Chase Art Gallery

City Hall (808 W. Spokane Falls Blvd.) I am glad I did because I had forgotten that they have an art gallery in the lower level. I decided to take a peak downstairs and see what the were showing this month. This month they are showing paintings by Rick Garcia, Robert, Kraut, Charlie Schmidt and Marvin Smith.
