SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: "Beyond Labels" by Virmarie DePoyster @ South Arkansas Arts Center
DESCRIPTION:Beyond Labels | Más allá de las Etiquetas \nVirmarie DePoyster is a bilingual\, Puerto Rican artist interested in utilizing art to bring communities together. In this portrait exhibition\, she explores how in today’s world — a melting pot — the labels we assign each other have the power to either divide or connect us. Rather than focusing on the boundaries these labels can create\, DePoyster’s goal with these works is to inspire a sense of community as each subject’s intrinsic beauty is illustrated. Her hope is to inspire an appreciation in our community for what makes each of us unique so we can learn to look beyond labels and truly see one another. \n  \nMás allá de las Etiquetas \nVirmarie DePoyster es una artista puertorriqueña bilingüe interesada en utilizar el arte para unir a las comunidades. En esta exhibición de cuadros\, ella explora cómo en el mundo de hoy\, un crisol\, las etiquetas que nos asignamos tienen el poder de dividirnos o conectarnos. En lugar de centrarse en los límites que pueden crear estas etiquetas\, el objetivo de DePoyster con estos trabajos es inspirar un sentido de comunidad\, como se ilustra la belleza intrínseca de cada sujeto. Su esperanza es inspirar un aprecio en nuestra comunidad por lo que nos hace únicos para que podamos aprender a mirar más allá de las etiquetas y realmente vernos.

ABRAHAM VAN HELSING……………..…..Charley HankinsARTHUR HOLMWOOD…………………….…………Austin GrovesQUINCEY MORRIS……………………………………….Clayton EversJOHNATHAN HARKER……………………….……..Matthew PowerDRACULA…………………………………………………..….Will ThomasGrab your garlic and your crucifixes\, the Count will rise again on Halloween at South Arkansas College in a first reading of a new dramatization of the Bram Stoker classic.\nSubtitled\, a Horror in Requiem\, this incarnation adheres closely to the book in both spirit and plot as the legendary evil vampire finds himself battling a group of friends who are determined to end his reign of terror. Combining dialogue\, movement and stage combat\, the play offers the audience a chance to experience the fear and passion behind the classical tale of horror and blood. Don’t expect sweeping romance\, but expect to be challenged and shaken by the nineteenth-century themes that are just as relevant in a modern era. This is the first step in a workshopping process for the new play and we will have an audience talkback session\, if time allows.\nThe reading will be held in the auditorium of the Mahony Family Library on the South Arkansas College Campus in El Dorado at 6 p.m. Admission is absolutely free. So kick off your Halloween evening with a travel back to Transylvania\, if you dare\n
