FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CITY OF PALMDALE NEWS RELEASE CONTACT: John Mlynar PHONE: 661/267-5115 DATE: March 13, 2017 Palmdale Playhouse to Host Opening Reception for “Our Peculiar Family–Macy Family Art” This Thursday PALMDALE The Palmdale Playhouse, located at 38334 10th St. East in Palmdale, will celebrate the opening of its newest art exhibit titled “Our Peculiar Family – Macy Family Art” with a free reception this Thursday, March 16 from 6:30 to 9:30 pm. Light refreshments will be served. The Macy Family will be on hand to take part in discussions and answer questions about their art. “The Macy children discovered they excelled in art and music at a very young age,” said Palmdale Recreation Supervisor Annie Pagliaro. “Their eyes see beauty that others sometimes miss and in this beauty see purpose and meaning.” From a decrepit old building or the many colors found on a rusty old car, to the barren stillness of our desert valley, to a wondering child’s face, the Macy’s believe the world around them reflects the beauty and glory of its Creator. Working in a variety of mediums, they enjoy using graphite, colored pencil, pen and ink, watercolor, pastels, and paper collage. “Our Peculiar Family” will be on display from March 16 through May 7 in the Palmdale Playhouse.
