SUMMARY:The Uwharrie Players presents Now and Then
DESCRIPTION:Sometimes what happens after last call just might change your life. One night in 1981\, just as Jamie is closing the bar where he works\, a desperate last-minute customer offers him and his girlfriend Abby two thousand dollars to sit and have a drink with him. Who wouldn’t take it? As the trio swaps stories and Jamie considers the decisions he faces about his musical career and his future with his girlfriend Abby\, the young couple begins to realize that this older man is unusually invested in their choices… and the reason he gives them is completely unbelievable. But when a very displeased second stranger arrives\, the unbelievable begins to look like it just might be true. Now and Then is a heartfelt romantic comedy about the costs of the choices we make\, and the people who make them with us. \n

SUMMARY:Swinging in the Street with the Salisbury Swing Band
DESCRIPTION:The Stanly County Historical Society invites the community to step back in time for an evening dedicated to the sweeping brass and infectious rhythms of the 1940s. During an era defined by the challenges of World War II\, big band swing served as much more than entertainment; it was the heartbeat of American resilience and a primary source of national pride. This music provided a sense of unity and hope that sustained the “Greatest Generation” both at home and abroad\, becoming a symbol of the very freedom they sought to protect. By hosting the Salisbury Swing Band on the lawn of the Historic 1852 Isaiah Snuggs House\, we honor this vital chapter of our cultural heritage and the enduring spirit of that transformative decade. \nThe performance begins at 7:00 PM\, and we encourage guests to bring lawn chairs to set up in the street or within the parking lot located between the Stanly County Public Library and Uwharrie Brewing. As this event takes place within the Downtown Social District\, those enjoying local refreshments are reminded to request their beverages in an official Social District Cup. This concert is free to the public\, offering a unique opportunity to gather as a community and celebrate the timeless music that once rallied a nation. \n  \nSwing Band 1 (8.5 x 11 in) – 1

SUMMARY:Stanly Arts Guild presents Summer Art Explosion
DESCRIPTION:This is an “anything goes” type of show. There is no official theme. This show occurs during the long mid-summer days\, and it’s just time for FUN art.

This show is a wonderful opportunity for artists of all types to enter their work and perhaps walk away with a ribbon and cash prize for their creativity.
