As spring bows out and summer begins, the James Smith Noel Collection is opening a new exhibit that showcases not only the floral beauty of the rose, but also its historical and cultural significance. Come see our collection of materials from the 17th through the 20th centuries that not only showcase the stunning beauty of roses but also their influence, including a look at the English Civil War known as the War of the Roses; literary works inspired by roses and gardens; and a view of the rose window in Gothic architecture.

"The Odd Couple" by Neil Simon
April 11-21
Presented by City Park Players - This classic comedy opens as a group of the guys assemble for cards in the apartment of divorced Oscar Madison. And if the mess is any indication, it’s no wonder that his wife left him. Late to arrive is Felix Unger, who has just been separated from his wife. Fastidious, depressed, and none too tense, Felix seems suicidal, but as the action unfolds, Oscar becomes the one with murder on his mind when the clean freak and the slob ultimately decide to room together with hilarious results as “The Odd Couple” is born. Directed by Allen Rowlen.
