Blue Jean Ball held; Play Time honored
Blue Jean Ball, Arlington's favorite party is to return in person to celebrate connection and community on Saturday, April 30, from 7:30 to 10:30.
The party and fund-raiser includes live music by Mike Duke & the SoulTwisters, dancing, awards, socializing and an irresistible silent auction at the newly renovated Arlington Community Center at 27 Maple St., ACA's home.
The items in this year's auction are specially crafted and generously donated by our BJB committee and community members and include local experiences, excursions and treats to help us all feel a little more connected and creative this year.
The Arlington Center for the Arts is excited to be honoring local Arlington business Play Time with the 2022 Alan McClennen Community Arts Award.
The award is presented in recognition of the artistic resources, joy and connection they have provided the community for over 75 years.
Led by owner Carolyn Levosky, Play Time has played an integral role in the creative pursuits of hundreds of artists, students, and families across generations.
This year's award is sponsored by Kickstand Cafe.

Exhibit dates: March 3 through June 9
Panel discussion: Sunday, April 3, at 3 p.m, to feature our curator and select artists.
ACA’s newest exhibit is "Integrated Cycles: Artists Respond to Our Changing Earth," curated by Emily Belz. The artists— Richard Alan Cohen, Cedric Harper, Shelby Meyerhoff, Ponnapa Prakkamakul and Stefanie Timmermann—invite viewers to consider topics ranging from climate change, to our interconnectedness to animal species, to how we form more purposeful relationships to landscapes and space.
This panel discussion will feature Belz and all five participating artists, as they discuss artwork presented in the exhibition, the themes addressed in their work and the connections these artists all shared through their diverse perspectives.
This event is free and open to the public and and we ask all attendees to RSVP here because of capacity limits.
