Tools in Motion Works from The Hechinger Collection is a light hearted exhibition of artwork inspired by tools and hardware. Witty and thought provoking, these 47 paintings, sculptures, and works on paper are courtesy of International Arts & Artists’ Hechinger Collection: Tools as Art. John Hechinger, Sr. owner of a hardware-store empire began collecting art in 1978. He thought his new company’s headquarters was efficient but looked sterile. To foster a creative environment, Hechinger began collecting art that celebrated the company’s livelihood and installed it throughout the company to inspire his employees to take pride in their work. Tools in Motion explores the collection’s fundamental themes — metamorphosis and magic – the transformation of a utilitarian tool into a work of art. This family friendly exhibition rejoices in the “do it yourself” ethos and the power of art to transform expectations in a playful, visually inspiring way Read Less

Magic can be hard to come by these days, but it is alive and well at the Historic Cocoa Village Playhouse this December 2009. Frank Galvez's original production of The American Nutcracker ushers in the season with an extravagant performance full of wonder and surprises set to the original music score by Tchaikovsky and based on the book by E.T.A Hoffmann. Created in 1994 in Fort Lauderdale Florida, and six years since it was first staged on Florida's Space Coast for the Galmont Ballet in 2004. Galvez added a unique twist to the story, aiming to create a truly American Nutcracker, set in the North East of the United States of America in the 19th century. Galvez’s production portraits a beautiful old-fashioned Victorian Christmas tree, all decorated in red, white, and blue, thrilling battle scene, exquisite costumes, impressive special effects, illusions, and magical tricks. Although it is a very lavish production, the values of The American Nutcracker remain the same, the celebration of family, tradition, and love, so essential to the holiday season. Frank Galvez infused the ballet with a style that expresses the festivity and ambiance of an American Christmas. December 18 & 19, 7:30 pm December 19 & 20, 2:00 pm Read Less
