  3. Small Wonders: Collection has multiplied like rabbits

    It's hard to take a place seriously that bills itself as &ldquo;the hoppiest place on Earth.&rdquo;
    It's hard to take a place seriously that bills itself as “the hoppiest place on Earth.” But when it comes to keeping my preteen daughters happy, entertained and out of prison, I'll take anything seriously. I am all about high culture and...

  4. Review: Petra Schilder invokes another era at Carter & Citizen

    Dutch artist Petra Schilder&rsquo;s exhibition at Carter &amp; Citizen revitalizes a mostly bygone way of life. In the intimate gallery, Schilder has painstakingly constructed a replica of a Dutch <em>smuiger</em>, or fireplace, out of hand-painted ceramic tiles. The tiles, which cover the wall from floor to ceiling, depict a farm landscape dotted with sheep. The hearth is flanked by two chairs holding piles of sheared wool in its raw state, and a chandelier loaded with lumpy brown candles hangs from the ceiling. The whole scene feels a bit like a diorama in a museum display, or an altar to an older way of life.

  7. Recycled art and delving into the depths

    I&rsquo;ve often mentioned the display cases in the front foyer of the Library, but the other day as I was walking through the Youth Department, I realized I had forgotten to mention display cases there that also deserve monthly attention. Really, if you want to give your spirits a lift and your artistic sensibilities a lively tweak, you owe it to yourself to go into the Youth Department to look at their monthly displays.

  12. Weekend Escape: Ely brings Nevada's Old West to life

    Motorists have plenty of reasons to stop in Las Vegas, but for those whose final destination is Ely, Nev., the most important is gas. That's because the three-hour drive north on U.S. 93 is filled with so much nothing that they'll start to ask themselves two questions: First, have those scientists who claim our planet is overpopulated ever driven this route? Second, does Ely, a town of about 4,000, really exist? The answer to the latter, thankfully, is yes.
