Happenings at Central Square

Get ready for a soul-filled evening on Saturday, Oct. 22, at 7 p.m. Legendary vocalists Bruce Henry and Gwen Matthews team up to present and celebrate The Legends of Soul. For this show, they welcome special guest Kathleen Johnson to join them as they perform songs made famous by artists like Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Gladys Knight, Beyoncé, BB King, Prince and more. Each of these vocal titans has a history of commanding the stage with magical solo performances and when they synthesize their talents, the sum is greater than its parts.

Tickets for Legends of Soul are $30 in advance and $35 on the day of the event. A reminder that children 12 and under are admitted for free with the presence of an adult ticketholder. Get your tickets today by calling 320-634–0400 or visiting https://ticketpeak.co/centralsquare.

Art in the Square Gallery

Central Square’s gallery exhibit features the intricate drawings of Dennis Anderson. He captures the nuances of shadow and light and translates them into powerfully detailed renderings of landscapes and portraits.

Gallery hours are Monday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Fridays by appointment. 

Thank You

Central Square thanks all who donated items for our rummage sale and all who came to treasure hunt, making it a successful fundraiser allowing us to continue providing low-cost arts programming for the Pope County community.

Coming Soon 

This Thursday, Sept. 29, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., join your fellow community members for Open Mic Night. Whether your talent is in music, comedy, poetry, spoken word or storytelling, you will be part of a safe space where all participants can share openly, inspire each other, and support one another in mutually respectful ways. Central Square staff believe in the transformative power of art and writing that allows us to express, explore, reveal, understand ourselves as well as each other, creativity and storytelling. Feel free to come and simply listen. Whether or not you are ready to share your own creative work or voice, we hope to inspire you with empathy, to think deeply, feel passionately, embrace vulnerability and find your creative spark!
