Learn how to draw and transfer your designs onto the silk. Then, once the resist has dried, mix and apply dye colors and set the dyes. The results: a colorful scarf or wall hanging, perfect for a gift or a treat for yourself!

Holiday Season begins at Townsend
The holiday season is here and there is no better way to celebrate tradition than by attending the Townsend Center for the Performing Arts’ holiday extravaganzas in December.
This season’s entertainment features the exciting International Juggling Champion and Comedy Entertainer of the Year, Mark Nizer, and the traditional “Christmas with the CSO” performed by the regions’ very own community orchestra, the Carroll Symphony Orchestra.
Imagine four lasers juggled at thousands of RPMs with beams dancing just above your head or an orbiting propane tank. It’s time to expect the impossible at the Mark Nizer 3D performance on Friday, Dec. 11, at 7:30 p.m.
The tradition continues with a reception beginning at 6:30 p.m. with an offering of desserts and hors d'oeuvres, holiday music and the annual toy drive, Rudolph to the Rescue. The Rudolph to the Rescue reception is a wonderful event families can enjoy together. An unwrapped toy is the ticket to the catered affair in the Townsend Center lobby and and a trip to the festive toy land in the Dangle Theatre.
Sure to thrill and ring nostalgic, the CSO returns with its gift of Christmas favorites ranging from Leroy Anderson’s “Sleigh Ride” and the holiday classic “The Twelve Days of Christmas” to sacred Christmas hymns and sing-along songs.
Classical wonders such as “Winter” from The Four Seasons, Bizet’s “L’Arléslienne Suites” and “A Christmas Carol” by Michael Runyan are sure to be delightful treats. Bring the entire family and make Christmas with the CSO part of your holiday tradition.
Sponsors for the exciting shows at the Townsend Center throughout the year are the Dr. Richard L. Dangle family, the Community Foundation of West Georgia, Dr. Chester and Mrs. Faye Gibson and the Carroll Symphony Orchestra Foundation.
Holiday show tickets for Mark Nizer 3D are $18 for adults, $15 for seniors and $10 for children. Tickets for Christmas with the CSO are $15 for adults, $12 for seniors and $8 for children.
A Townsend Center season ticket package offers significant discounts for three or more shows and the best seats in the house.
The Townsend Center Box Office is open Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and one hour before show times. Go to http://www.townsendcenter.org for information on the 2009-2010 season, educational outreach programs at the TCPA and directions to the theatre.

Magic Duo Presents Land of Illusion December 12
Stay close to home and enjoy a spectacular holiday extravaganza with modern day Houdinis Kevin and Cindy Spencer at the Townsend Center for the Performing Arts. The dazzling duo will present “The Spencers: Theatre of Illusion” on Friday, Dec. 12, at 7:30 p.m. on the University of West Georgia campus.
The family show will cross the threshold of reality as the theatre of illusion launches you into a world of magic, comedy, romance and suspense. The Spencers propel the art of magic into an unforgettable theatrical experience for the entire family. Early ticket purchases are recommended, said Robert Jennings, artistic director of the Townsend Center.
“This is a wonderful holiday event for the community to enjoy,” said Jennings. “The high caliber of the entertainment matches other metro shows easily and the festive decorations will delight the children.”
The Spencers’ performance will follow the annual Rudolph to the Rescue Toy Drive and reception, a Department of Family and Children Services benefit for underprivileged children of Carroll County. The community is invited to join in the festivities in the lobby before the show at 6:30 p.m.
The Spencers are international stars and have been named Performing Arts Entertainers of the Year for six consecutive years. No other performer has held the title longer and only one other magician, David Copperfield, has received such recognition.
They have also been honored as the Best Touring Production, Best Major Performance, Best Variety Artists and Best Performing Arts Event. In 1996 and 2000, winning over such contenders as the Dave Matthews Band and Garth Brooks, they were recognized as College Entertainers of the Year. This show is one not to be missed.
Tickets are $18 for adults, $15 for seniors and military, and $10 for children. Discount packages for purchases of three or more shows scheduled for December and the upcoming spring semester are available. TCPA Box Office hours are Monday – Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and one hour before the start of the event. For more information, call 678-839-4722.
