Dog-Man 13: Big Jim Begins
Dog-Man! Dog-Man! Dog-Man is HERE, people! Maybe you’re not losing your mind over this, but I bet you know a 6-to-12-year-old who is. From the brain behind Captain Underpants, superhero pooch Dog Man, as described by author Dav Pilkey, is a “crime-biting canine who is part dog, part man, and ALL HERO!” This new addition to the bestselling series sees character origins revealed and the universe threatened by the evil Space Cuties – and this event sees you and your kiddos meeting the real Dog Man for photos! Bark, bark, woof, woof, and a hearty a-woo to you all. – James ScottMon., Nov. 4

"Native America: In Translation"
One thing I’ve loved about newer theatre or museums is the space given for land acknowledgement – statements about the ancestral roots of the space being used. Space that was not always ours, but taken. The Blanton’s latest exhibit tackles that question, but pushes the boundaries. It’s not just about what Native America was, but what it can be. Curator and lauded artist Wendy Red Star has assembled nine other Native artists to create a rich exploration of what life in America is today. Shown through a variety of mediums, something is guaranteed to resonate with the audience. Whether it’s the photos, paintings, videos, or multimedia works is up to you. – Cat McCarreyAug. 4-Jan.5 -
