• MISS NELSON IS MISSING

    Miss Nelson’s class is the worst-behaved in the whole school. Spitballs flying across the room, paper airplanes sailing every which way and uncontrollable children send gentle, long-suffering Miss Nelson over the edge.

    But the students of Room 207 are in for a surprise when Miss Nelson goes missing and is replaced by Viola Swamp, a no-nonsense substitute who assigns piles of homework! The students learn lessons of appreciation and respect as they set out to find their beloved Miss Nelson… but will they ever get her back?

  • Representation Matters: Women’s Lived Experiences

    Closing event for Women’s History Month. This event will begin with a brief recognition of women who make a meaningful impact on our campus, followed by a film screening and conversation exploring how media shapes identity, gender norms, and our understanding of womanhood.

    Using Barbie as a cultural lens, participants are invited to reflect on representation, societal expectations, and the ways women’s lived experiences are portrayed—and challenged—on screen. A post-screening discussion will provide space for thoughtful dialogue, critical reflection, and shared perspectives.

  • In Studio: Zinc Plate Lithography

    Zinc plate lithography is one of printmaking’s most expressive processes, often described as the printmaker’s equivalent of drawing and painting. Artists work directly on a smooth metal plate using greasy drawing materials such as lithographic crayon, pencil and liquid tusche, creating marks that range from delicate lines and soft washes to rich, velvety blacks.

    Over four weeks, students will learn how to prepare a zinc plate, draw on it using traditional lithographic materials, chemically process the plate and print a small edition using the Takach Lithography press. The process works through the interaction of grease and water: greasy marks attract ink while damp areas of the plate repel it. This class welcomes artists of all levels. Beginners will receive clear, step-by-step guidance, while more experienced artists and printmakers will have the opportunity to explore lithographic mark-making and deepen their understanding of the process.

  • The Audience

    Location: Coral Gables Art Cinema

    For 60 years, Queen Elizabeth II met with each of her 12 prime ministers in a private weekly meeting. This meeting is known as The Audience. From Winston Churchill to Margaret Thatcher and David Cameron, the Queen advised her prime ministers on matters both public and personal. Through these private audiences, we see glimpses of the woman behind the crown and witness the moments that shaped a monarch. Peter Morgan’s Netflix phenomenon The Crown was based on this hit play that was captured live from London’s West End in 2013 and went on to become one of the most-watched NT Live productions.

    This production includes an intermission. The screening on Friday, April 4 features open captions as part of our commitment to make programs more accessible to d/Deaf and hard of hearing audiences.

  • My Neighbor Totoro

    Location: Coral Gables Art Cinema

    One of the most endearing films ever made for children, My Neighbor Totoro, is a deceptively simple tale of two girls, Satsuki and Mei, who move with their father to a new house in the countryside while he cares for their ailing mother.

    They soon discover that the surrounding forests are home to a family of Totoros, gentle but powerful creatures who live in a huge and ancient camphor tree and are seen only by children. But beneath the film’s playfulness and narrative simplicity lie depths of wisdom.

    As with much of Miyazaki’s work, My Neighbor Totoro is infused with an almost spiritual reverence for the power of nature. Like Satsuki and Mei, audiences are left with a sense of wonder at the beauty, mystery, and preciousness of the world around us.

    Saturday, April 4 – 11:00 AM – Japanese with English subtitles

    Sunday, April 5 – 11:00 AM – English dubbed
