| George Rodrigue signs Blue Dog Speaks Barnes & Noble Lincoln Park | Sun., October 12, 2:00pm | Park Cities | |
George Rodrigue painted a blue dog for a collection of Cajun ghost stories in 1984, and he's been painting different portraits of that ghostly loup-garou ever since. If the dog's blue fur coat and eerie yellow eyes weren't so captivating and mysterious, the dog probably would have been labeled... More >> |

| Dave Attell House of Blues | Sun., October 12, 7:00pm | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
There's this guy who's known for wandering the streets late at night, kinda drunk, and harassing people by asking them lots of questions. He's pretty blue, smokes a lot and talks frequently about pirates and other people who are typically missing appendages. No, he's not the creepy homeless guy... More >> |

| Laurie Anderson's Homeland McFarlin Auditiorium | Sun., October 12, 8:00pm | Park Cities | |
When music collides with performance art, the hope is always that nymph-like art rock icon Laurie Anderson is the mastermind. For more than three decades, Anderson has provided fodder for head-cocks and deep thoughts through amazingly diverse performances, film and, hell, even a little dance.... More >> |

| Ricki Derek The Cavern | Every week Sunday | East Dallas & Lakewood | |
For the past decade, Derek has been Dallas' own Sinatra. With well-cut suits, slicked-back hair and sometimes a drink in hand, the MacArthur High School graduate cuts a striking nostalgic figure complete with a voice that could fit right in with Bobby Darin and Mel Tormé on any... More >> |

| Canstruction 2008 North East Mall | Daily from Sun., October 12 until Sat., October 18 | Mid-Cities (H-E-B) | |
Thirteen teams of architects and engineers have teamed up to compete in the 2008 Canstruction Competition and Show.

| It's A Mad, Mad, World DECORAZON gallery | Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Thu., October 9 until Tue., November 11 | Oak Cliff & South Dallas | |
If only Alice had been more patient with the Mad Hatter, she may have found the key to making sense of Wonderland. This was certainly the case for artist James Gasowski. A colorful life shared between California, New York and Europe taught him that the world is a mixed-up place, but... More >> |

| Blending the Old and the New: Quilts by Paul D. Pilgrim Irving Arts Center | Daily from Sat., September 20 until Sun., November 9 | Irving & Las Colinas | |
Despite the general preconception, quilting isn't just for little old ladies. It's a labor of love for anyone who attempts the craft--after two years, thousands of little squares, a countless number of spools of thread, and probably a pint of my own blood, sweat and tears, I made a quilt that,...

| Denise Fleming: Painting With Paper Irving Arts Center | Daily from Sat., October 11 until Sun., December 28 | Irving & Las Colinas | |
The 1998 film Can't Hardly Wait is like Kevin Bacon: Everything in the universe can be connected to it in six degrees or less. For example, three of the film's leading actors went on to star on Six Feet Under together. And you know the Judd Apatow flick Forgetting Sarah Marshall? The film's... More >> |

| Dallas Portfolio Exchange The Magnolia Theatre | Daily from Thu., September 11 until Tue., October 14 | East Dallas & Lakewood | |
I'm a little confused. Take 12 photographers, have them submit "13 identical, archival, photographic prints from one single image," share the first dozen with the other photographers, hang up the final one and that's the Dallas Portfolio Exchange? I think with a little more tweaking and drama,... More >> |

| Moslah Shriners' 66th Annual Shrine Circus Will Rogers Memorial Center |
Sun., October 12, 2:30pm more dates/times |
Fort Worth | |
Though I shudder at the thought of clowns, I love the circus. Tigers, elephants, high-wire acts, cotton candy, pony rides...and it all goes to a good cause. Well, normally it all goes into the owner's pocket, but the Moslah Shriners' 66th Annual Shrine Circus--put on by the guys that wear the... More >> |

Northwest Dallas | |
When the days grow shorter and the leaves rattle on the trees, while pumpkins begin to appear beside front doors to await their violent, eviscerated ends, lots of people put on spooky seasonal shows calculated to appeal to those who love this macabre time of the year (anyone who has any sense...

| Andy Hanson Exhibit Music Hall at Fair Park | Daily from Wed., June 4 until Sun., October 19 | Fair Park | |
Go ahead and scramble to sneak a peek at Mylie Cyrus' so-called side-boob (whatever) in that Annie Leibovitz portrait all over the racks. Dallas has their own artistic exhibition of celebrity upon which to feast the eyes. The Music Hall at Fair Park showcases the work of local photographer... More >> |
