MARCH 2015 GALLERY SHOW
During March, the Last Resort Players’
theatrical production of “Our Town” will be in
collaboration with the Florence Events Center
galleries by exhibiting the works of local
photographers and artists capturing “Life in Our
Town.” Entries will either follow the themes of
the play – everyday living, love and marriage,
and the reality of death — or will focus on our
own town of Florence. The glass case will also
offer 3-D artwork.
LRP’s Our Town will be presented on March
20 and 21 at 7 p.m., and 22 at 2 p.m. It will be
repeated on March 27 and 28 at 7 p.m., and
March 29, at 2 p.m. The three-act play has two
intermissions, and the audiences will be able to
enhance their theatrical experience by visiting
Gallery One during intermissions to refl ect on
the artwork and its relation to the play.

“I am looking forward to the chance
to meet the people I will be serving
and representing within the Florence
community,” said Reynolds.
