Calendar Highlights For Thursday, August 22

KERA Arts Story Search

“Made in America: A Portrait of a City” is a new series of paintings by artist Riley Holloway. The works examine Dallas’ Black neighborhoods and history with portraits and audio interviews. The interactive show opens tonight at the African American Museum of Dallas. Be sure to bring your headphones!
In Fort Worth, Jubilee Theatre also explores the African American experience. You only have one week to see “Sistas: The Musical.” It’s an electric history of black woman empowerment through song.
Author Dave Lieber will be at the Allen Public Library tonight. He’ll be discussing his biography “AMON! The Ultimate Texan: The Amon Carter Story.” A play based on the book will play in Fort Worth later next month.
