True West: True West is a new play how sibling rivalry takes a hellish turn when a screenwriter is forced to pen his outlaw brother’s wild Western movie script. Tensions rise like the desert heat as the brother’s showdown in this darkly funny Pulitzer Prize finalist. It’s now through January 28.

Winter Restaurant Week: The Winter Restaurant Week starts Sunday. Check out the website to see the restaurants and their menus.

Meet the Geo Gnomes: Ten very special Geo Gnomes are in the Aullwood Audubon. Grab a Geo Gnome raffle ticket at the front desk and start hunting to find these winter visitors and figure out which state each one hails from. They are there until the end of February.
