Second Annual West Bank Bash Eagles Club - The Nest Sun., October 12, 5:30pm Minneapolis (Downtown)
The West Bank School of music began in the '70s as a flexible way for people of all ages and skill levels to add a little music to their busy lives. A 501 nonprofit music school, it offers private lessons, group classes, and even band placements for those ready for and interested in playing... More >>
Stereolab First Avenue Sun., October 12, 7:30pm Minneapolis (Downtown)
A tremendous live band with a songbook to match, London's Stereolab draw crowds even as their albums feel less like the cultural events they once were—though am I wrong to hear their airy influence in Estelle's Top-40 candy "American Boy"? Still, anyone tuning out after 1997's Dots and... More >>
Weekender Pops: the Blind Boys of Alabama and Preservation Hall Jazz Band Orchestra Hall Sun., October 12, 2:00pm Minneapolis (Downtown)
This joint tour by an outstanding pair of iconic and incredibly venerable bands (the Blind Boys have been around nearly seven decades; the PHJB nearly five) was precipitated by the Blind Boys' latest CD, Down in New Orleans (Time Life). It was the first time the gospel institution recorded in... More >>
Balls Southern Theater Every week Saturday, 12:00am Minneapolis (Downtown)
The first time I went to Balls, the most memorable performance of about a dozen involved a man shouting atheist poetry from inside a refrigerator box. The second time I went, a musician who was in the midst of a small tour through the Midwest stopped by for a heartbreaking acoustic guitar... More >>
Eero Saarinen: Shaping the Future Minneapolis Institute Of Arts Daily from Sun., September 14 until Sun., January 4 Uptown/Eat Street
It might not be well known, but Minnesota is actually a hotbed for architecture by 20th- and 21st-century masters. Whether it's Frank Gehry's bendy-metal Weisman Art Museum, César Pelli's Wells Fargo Center and Minneapolis Central Library, or Frank Lloyd Wright's Lindholm service station... More >>
From Sportswear to Streetwear The Goldstein Museum Of Design Daily from Sat., August 16 until Sun., November 2 Como
All the cool kids might think their Converse Chuck Taylor All-Stars are just hip canvas shoes. Ditto for Technicolor Nike Air Force Ones. But to the well-trained designer's eye, these kicks mark a significant departure in our fashion history: the idea that clothes designed to be worn for sports... More >>
Hindsight is Always 20/20 Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum Daily from Sat., August 23 until Sun., January 4 University
As the Faces lamented in "Oh La La": I wish that I knew what I know now/When I was younger. Truer words are rarely spoken. In "Hindsight Is Always 20/20," New York-based artist and composer R. Luke Dubois explores this irony with a visual pun. In his 43 prints and light boxes, Dubois creates a... More >>
History Room: 20 Years of No Name The Soap Factory Daily from Sat., April 19 until Sun., October 26 University
A lot has changed over the past 20 years. We've gone through three presidents. Macs became cool, then lame, then cool again. Alternative music became corporatized, then turned into emo. A lot has changed over the years for the Soap Factory as well. One of the oldest galleries in the Twin Cities... More >>
Macbeth Minneapolis Theater Garage Mon., October 20, 7:30pm
more dates/times 		Uptown/Eat Street
Stacia Rice has played a number of heart-warming female leads in recent memory (Jane Eyre at the Guthrie, Anne Sullivan in Torch's The Miracle Worker), but this fall she threatens to trample all of that goodwill as original mean queen Lady Macbeth. She'll perform opposite Sean Haberle... More >>
Robert Rauschenberg: Prints/Editions 1962-78 Minneapolis Institute Of Arts Daily from Sat., October 4 until Sun., March 15 Uptown/Eat Street
Forty or 50 years on, it's hard to imagine now the manic energy of the art world in the 1960s, or the way that Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns, in particular, blew the doors off of artistic sensibilities at the time. Their libertine experimentalism bridged abstract expressionism and pop... More >>
Statements: Beuys, Flavin, Judd Walker Art Center Daily from Thu., May 15 until Sun., July 12 Minneapolis (Downtown)
At first glance, it might be hard to find a common thread between these three artists, other than hastily applying a "Minimalism" tag to their work or noting that the bulk of their work came out of the 1960s and '70s. Joseph Bueys often worked with felt and manipulated found objects,... More >>
Vatican Splendors: From Saint Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums and Swiss Guard Minnesota History Center Daily from Sat., September 27 until Sun., January 11 St. Paul (Downtown)
Remember that Onion headline a few years back when Pope John Paul II died? "Heaven Less Opulent Than Vatican, Reports Disappointed Pope." Zing. Everybody knows that the pope and his posse at the Vatican live surrounded by ornate and priceless treasures amid ancient buildings designed and... More >>
