What? The Arts Association of East Alabama?
A new arts organization?
Nope. It's the Opelika Arts Association. Executive director Phillip Preston and the board decided to change the name to "more accurately reflect its membership and area coverage."
He sent me a brochure for the 2007-08 season and it's going to be another good one.
Oct. 9: Jazz guitarist John Pizzarelli.
Nov. 5: The Ballet Folklorico de Mexico de Amalia Hernandez.
Dec. 11: "Gypsy," the musical about the life of Gypsy Rose Lee.
Jan. 24: The State Symphony Orchestra of Mexico directed by Enrique Batiz with featured soloist violinist Joan Kwuon.
