With two Red Light Nights and a fantastic Trick-Art-Treat, we had a wonderful October here in Southeast Missouri! There is plenty more to look forward to during our last two months of the year, for now – mark your calendars for the following Arts Dates to Save in November! A comprehensive listing of November arts events in Southeast Missouri is available at on our website Events Calendar>
 10th Annual Empty Bowls EventSunday, November 1st from Noon – 2:00 pm
At the Salvation Army Worship & Community Center at
701 Good Hope Street
A community-wide event to increase awareness of hunger issues in the Cape Girardeau area. Tickets for the event are $12, which can be purchased at the door, and participants receive a soup meal and a handmade pottery bowl of their choice. All proceeds benefit the Salvation Army. This year approximately 600 bowls will be available to purchase and are made entirely by local potters and painted by community members and volunteers.
Bowls will also be available during the Arts Council of Southeast Missouri’s 45th Annual Christmas Arts and Crafts Extravaganza.
The Arts Council is pleased to welcome back internationally renowned artist Gary Lucy for a display of original pieces and high-quality prints of his original artwork. Lucy’s representational pieces focus on capturing the beauty of regional landscapes, as well as depictions of important scenes throughout the history of the Mississippi River. Lucy is a native of Caruthersville, MO and graduate of Southeast Missouri State University. The artist will be present during the reception. 
Planning to attend the First Friday with the Arts this November? We are trying out a Selfie Scavenger Hunt, with every #FFSELFIE submitted entered into the drawing for a $100 gift certificate for use at participating First Friday galleries! The lucky winner will get to support local artists and buy a gift for a loved one (or themselves – we won’t judge)! Join the Facebook Event>
