The program features a lineup of activities that encourages creative thought through a monthly “Big Idea.” This go-around, the Big Idea is “Balance,” and the art project is “Plane Portraits.” Take any DART Rail line to St. Paul Station and walk three blocks North to Flora Street, or catch the D-Link.

It’s the opening day of Picasso/Rivera: Still Life and the Precedence of Form at the Meadows Museum. The visual dialogue taking place in 1915 between these two giants of modern art was awesome. The exhibition provides rich anecdotes, as well as an opportunity to find parallels and differences between the two artists’ canvases. The museum is on the SMU campus; go to Mockingbird Station and catch the Museum Express (Route 743).
