BRINGING ART TO THE TABLE
The Leeds Arts Council is producing
its third annual Tablescapes November 5th through 8th at the Leeds Theatre and
Arts Center at 8140 Parkway Drive in downtown Leeds. This event is for those who
enjoy celebrating a holiday or the cherished company of family and friends. It
is full of inspirational ideas to make your table come alive for your special
occasion.
The tablescapes fundraiser was
inspired by Jo Ann Malone, 2007 LAC President, to help fund arts programs
presented at the Leeds Theatre and Arts Center.
The first year tablescapes hosted six table designers and twelve in 2008.
As excitement has grown the number of tables have grown. “We plan to have more
than fifteen tables this year,” says event chairman, Marie Gardner.”
One returning tablescape designer is
The Monkey’s Uncle, Alabama’s 2009 Retailer of the Year. Last year their table
was very popular with the teen crowd. It included a table top covered with snow
and included purple and silver polka-dot decor. Another unique table included a
seascape design by Gloria’s Arrangements embracing sand, sea foam, fishing nets, coral, fish and sea shells.
This year themes range from football party ideas, French Country, Christmas,
Thanksgiving and New Years. Decorating styles embrace traditional, classic,
modern and edgy motifs.
The event opens Thursday, November 5,
from 5:00-9:00 p.m. and runs through Sunday November 8th. Opening night tickets are $10 and include an
evening of live music with pianist David Brasher and hors d’oeuvres from Top
Notch Catering. Friday and Saturday hours are 9:00 - 5:00 p.m. and Sunday hours
are 1:30 – 4:30 p.m. Tickets for Friday through Sunday are $5. Drawings for door prizes will be help
following the closing ceremony on Sunday and winners will be contacted on the
following Tuesday.
Three workshops are provided during
the event. Decorating with Southern Living at Home workshops will be Friday and
Saturday at 12:30 and Cooking Hors D’oeuvres with Pampered Chef will be Sunday
at 2:00.

| | | 7:00 PM | LAC presents Poetry Reading
Contact Regina Arnold - regina@leedsartscouncil.org
LAC presents our Poetry Reading every two months on the last Monday. A poetry reading is a performance of original works of poetry, presented by the poet and given on our small stage. Poetry readings often involve several readers and occasionally have a theme. Though a form of entertainment until around the turn of the previous century, poetry readings are now identified with a literary fringe. We invite anyone interested to bring their original works to share or simply enjoy listening to others. Free to the Public. Handicap Accessible. Free Parking. Located at the Leeds Theatre and Art Center, 8140 Parkway Drive, Leeds, AL 35094. 15 Minutes from Downtown Birmingham.
