It’s “Off the cuff armchair theater” again!
Come along and try your hand at play reading! Wednesday, February 12, 2014 at 7 PM in the PAS Room, Princeton Center, 18 Boylston Ave, Princeton. This year we’ll be reading the work of contemporary award-winning playwright David Ives, whose work has been described as “at once enchanting and perplexing, incisively intelligent and side-splittingly funny”. Before his success on Broadway with “Venus in Fur” (currently playing in Boston), Ives wrote a number of short, playful, inventive one-act plays.
Join us as we read through three or four of these humorous plays from his popular book “All in the Timing”: ”Sure Thing”, “Words, Words, Words”, “Variations on the Death of Trotsky”, and “Mere Mortals”. Scripts will be available to share and minimal props will be provided.
Bring your voice and ideas for plays to read next year! Refreshments!!! For more information, email contact@princetonarts.org.

Princeton Arts Society Portrait Group “FACES” Exhibit
The Gallery at Briarwood Is “Something Special for the Community”
Princeton Arts Society Portrait Group “FACES” Exhibit

from L to R: at exhibit opening

Worcester, Massachusetts Briarwood Retirement Community hosted a private opening reception for artists of the Princeton Arts Society Portrait Group on Sunday, January 5. The exhibit entitled “FACES” was the first of six to be scheduled in The Gallery at Briarwood in the coming year. The next exhibit will be presented in March by a member of Briarwood’s Board of Directors, Sharon Smith-Viles and the Silk Road Art Guild of Central Massachusetts. A complete schedule for the year will be released at a later date.
The Gallery at Briarwood was the brainchild of the weekly “Art with Merry” class held at Briarwood. “One day the class suggested they have an exhibit. We walked down the hall and kept walking,” laughs Briarwood resident and class instructor Marilyn “Merry” Pratt. “The light bulb went off. We realized it was the perfect space for an art gallery. Residents from the entire campus exhibited their works October through December 2013. It was then we realized we had something very special for the community.”
“FACES” was presented to showcase the caliber of work that is produced from weekly portrait sittings at the Princeton Center, 18 Boylston Ave. in Princeton. The mission of the Princeton Arts Society is to foster interest in the arts and to promote the talents and skills of its members.
The Portrait Group meets year round on Tuesdays from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., and has a live model who sits for twenty-minute segments during that time. The group has a long history of portrait making. It is led by founding members Merry Pratt and Jean Murphy.
