Frank Lloyd Wright: Organic Architecture for the 21st Century is the first exhibition to explore Wright and his relevance today through a survey of more than 40 projects, including his vision for the decentralized city, presented through rarely seen drawings, scale models, furniture, films and photographs.

    Regarded by many as the greatest American architect of the 20th century, Frank Lloyd Wright was a champion of organic architecture. His visionary designs emphasized use of natural materials, harmonious integration of building and landscape and high functionality. Many concepts developed in Wright's revolutionary work are central to today’s sustainable, green architecture movement.

    Frank Lloyd Wright: Organic Architecture for the 21st Century is organized by Phoenix Art Museum and Milwaukee Art Museum in conjunction with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation.

At seventeen, she formed her own acting company, and her radical productions sold out houses across Europe. In 1977, she turned her attention to music and left for the United States to study film scoring at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. Scoring gave way to her love for guitar and in 1981, Leni moved to New York to play in a variety of rock and jazz bands. In 1983, she formed a group of her own with Paul Motion on drums and Bill Frisell on guitar. As a recording artist, she originally made a name for herself in jazz circles (her first nine albums were instrumental,) then crossed her talents over into the singer-songwriter realm, garnering consistent praise in the process. Critics have said her music incorporates “intelligent lyrics and beautifully drawn vignettes” (Washington Post), “crystalline, jazz-meets-blues guitar lines” (Guitar Player). Tickets $10 More >>

Alfred Hitchcock's The 39 Steps. A mind-blowing cast of four actors play over 150 characters in this fast-paced tale of an ordinary man on an extraordinarily entertaining adventure. The madness begins when mild-mannered Richard Hannay starts his evening at the theatre and ends the night with a dead body in his lap. Caught in maze of murder, espionage and flirtatious entanglements, our hero careens from the British music hall to the moors of Scotland and back to the London Palladium in search of a plausible alibi and the true identity of the killer. Broadway’s most intriguing, most riotous, most unmissable Tony-winning comedy smash proves that anything the movies can do, the theatre can do more hilariously!

The gathering is held in the 2-acre sculpture garden at the Arizona Fine Art EXPO, March 17, 2012 from 1pm to 5pm.

    For the "Painting Live Ponies" event, Horses Help will transport their horses and pony to the biggest live horse painting event of the year in Arizona. Renowned artists, Bob Coonts and Gene Dieckhoner, participating artists at the EXPO will paint the first horse. The second is a pony that veterans from the AHAF classes will paint in addition to any veteran attendees that would like to participate. The Children of Fallen Heroes will paint the miniature pony. The horses will be painted with washable watercolor paints that are harmless to the animals.

    AHAF and Horses Help will each be signing up veterans for their classes during this event. Trail of Painted Ponies collectable horse sculptures will be for sale throughout this event in addition to pony kits for painting by AHAF. The EXPO artists are supporting AHAF and getting involved by painting original sculptures that will also be for sale during the event. Purchasing the sculptures up front is their donation to American Healing Arts Foundation. Everyone is invited to come out and have their photo taken with the horses for a small donation to the charities.

    AHAF offers free art classes for our U.S. Veterans by award-winning art instructors for art therapy. For the veteran that would like to take therapy to a deeper level, the Foundation also has licensed art therapists. For more info on this program, call Horses Help Therapeutic Classes (602)569-6056.
