- [Aminah Robinson: Journeys Home, a Visual Memoir](https://mobilebaynow.com/event/aminah-robinson-journeys-home-a-visual-memoir/): Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson (1940 – 2015) was an exceptionally prolific artist who used traditional and unconventional, non-traditional materials to create a staggering body of work. Her drawings, paintings, sculptures, and mixed-media textiles chronicle her family’s African ancestry, her worldwide travels, and her witness to African American life. A MacArthur Fellow, Robinson was also a researcher, historian, and poet who used her vast talents to draw harmony into a discordant world. When Robinson passed away, she entrusted her art, writing, personal belongings, and home studio to the Columbus Museum of Art in Ohio, her hometown museum. 
- [Handle with Care](https://mobilebaynow.com/event/handle-with-care/): Handle with Care is a new interactive exhibition exploring all the potential of what we take for granted.In a partnership exhibition originated by Alabama Contemporary Art Center for Mobile Museum of Art, artists Calder Kamin (Austin, TX) and Jacob Reptile (New Orleans, LA) transform trash into soft and complex sculptures to create a new kind of environment. Through purposeful reuse of fabrics, plastics and second-hand materials, these artists create new alien lifeforms, flora and fauna to populate an imagined landscape.The space they have created speaks to local ecology, the environmental impact of waste and inspires a playful consideration of what we produce through industry. Everything here was once discarded, now re-purposed into a mythical topography that celebrates vibrant and unfettered growth, and invites viewers to inhabit the exhibition as they consider how we inhabit the natural world we live in.Everything has been touched by human hands and can be touched. Everything can find purpose with a little imagination, and the work of making a sustainable planet can also happen through play.

Dr. Suzuki based his approach on the belief that “Musical ability is not an inborn talent but an ability which can be developed.” He began to apply the basic principles of language acquisition to the learning of music, and called his method the mother-tongue approach. As when a child learns to talk, parents are involved in the musical learning of their child. Listening to music every day is important, and constant repetition is essential in learning to play an instrument. Children ages 4-7 are accepted for violin, viola or cello. Music Magic Lab 1 & 2! Learning is fun, learning music theory is the best! The Mobile Symphony presents the theory of music in a step-by-step, straightforward way for anyone who wants to have fun learning the music fundamentals. This class covers treble clef notation, time values, time signatures, sharps, flats, naturals, note spelling and much more. Learning the basics of theory will prove useful for life and for multiple instruments. Some students pick up music by ear. Great! They can sit down and start to play what they want just by listening to the melody of their favorite song. For the rest of us, however, having a basic knowledge of the notes on the staff, the location of those notes on our instrument, is the foundation we use to read and build music. LEVEL I Grades 4-6: Note reading fundamentals, basic musical symbols and concepts, melodic and rhythmic ear training. Materials will be provided LEVEL II Grades 7-12: More advanced musical concepts and ear training. Circle of fifths, intervals, key and time signatures, etc. Materials will be provided BEGINNING STRINGS: Learn how to play a string instrument during summer and develop new skills under the expert guidance of a professional string teacher artist.
