APRIL 28 — "Erth's Prehistoric Aquar- ium Adventure: The Mystery of the Dinosaurs of the Deep" "They have these amazing puppets that are huge, in some cases. They really span the scale from very intimate puppets to huge whale-like puppets," Goodwin shares. "The particular show that we're going to see is based on underwater creatures, so it will give children and families an up-close and personal view of what these creatures looked like back in the day." MAY 1-2 — Windmill Theatre Compa- ny's "Beep" Non-Series Offerings OCT. 12 — "Harry Potter and the Pris- oner of Azakaban" in Concert, at the Walmart AMP JAN. 18 — Arkansas Filmmakers Show- case "We're really excited to work with the Fayetteville Film Festival to curate evenings of film," Ross says of the WAC's new artistic affiliate partnership with the festival. "With the Arkansas filmmakers evening in January, that's where we kick off our relationship, and I'm really looking forward to exposing our patrons to more Arkansas filmmak- ing." MARCH 6-7 — Opera Fayetteville "Glory Denied" "A resident company essentially is one that does the bulk of their work in our buildings, on our property, in our venues," Galbraith explains of some of the industry vernacular. New partner- ships with the Fayetteville Film Festival and Opera Fayetteville, similar to WAC's relationship with Trike Theatre, are providing opportunities for artistic growth in the coming year. "An artistic affiliate may do work in many different places, but what they do here with us is exclusive to us." Festivals VOICEJAM — April 3-4: Competitors from all over the country travel to Fayetteville in April for the Walton Arts Center's original a cappella festival where the champion group wins the opportunity to attend and perform at Vocal Asia Festival, Voice- Jam's sister event, in Japan. MOSAIX — April 20-25: A new festival will debut in April that seeks to elevate the intersection of arts and the rich cultures (hence the "x") that make up the mosaic of Northwest Arkansas. Born out of the desire to ensure every part of the community sees themselves reflected in WAC's content, organizers consulted and collaborated with community organi- zations to incorporate more culturally specific programming. The inaugural Mosaix festival will celebrate the vibrant cultures of India. ARTOSPHERE — April 28-May 15: Next year marks the beginning of the second decade of WAC's art, music and nature festival. In celebration, the festival will see the return of a few fan favorites that organizers have heard through the years the commu- nity couldn't get enough of.

AUGUST 4-10, 2019 WAC Continued From Page 10 COVER STORY Courtesy photo "The Nace Brothers have played at George's [Majestic Lounge] for years. I mean, the very first time they played here was 1992 Springfest, and I was there, at George's, in the garden," WAC programming director Jennifer Ross says of the performers joining the West Street Live lineup. "Their music and the songs they write themselves are fun and fascinating and compelling. I'm really looking forward to having them, not in a club setting where you'd want to get up and dance, but in a quieter space where you can really focus on the lyrics."
