Woodrow Wilson High School’s famous Spring Musical starts tonight and runs until Sunday, April 21. The Woodrow Fine Arts Department gives you its rendition of the classic “Anything Goes,” about two unlikely pairs who find love out at sea aboard the S.S. American with the help of singing sailors, exotic disguises and a little blackmail. The show starts at 7:30 p.m. in the Woodrow auditorium. Tickets are $10 in advance and $12 at the door. Go to the Woodrow website for more.
Promise of Peace Community Garden, in partnership with Hotel Palomar, is building a new garden this Saturday from 10 a.m. to noon at C. C. Young Retirement Center as a part of P.O.P’s effort to “plant it forward.” The garden will be located in the back of the Thomas Building between buildings 400 and 600. They will plant a small butterfly garden to inspire, and four container boxes of fresh herbs for snipping. Plus, Palomar is donating a bench so visitors can sit a while. If you’re interested in getting involved, visit the Promise of Peace website, or call Elizabeth Dry at 214.240.9220.
