So much happened before Dorothy dropped in.


WICKED, the Broadway sensation, looks at what happened in the Land of Oz…but from a different angle.  Long before Dorothy arrives, there is another young woman, born with emerald-green skin—smart, fiery, misunderstood, and possessing an extraordinary talent. When she meets a bubbly blonde who is exceptionally popular, their initial rivalry turns into the unlikeliest of friendships…until the world decides to call one “good,” and the other one “wicked.” 


From the first electrifying note to the final breathtaking moment, WICKED—the untold true story of the Witches of Oz—transfixes audiences with its wildly inventive story. “If every musical had the brains, heart and courage of WICKED, Broadway really would be a magical place” (Time Magazine).

Artlink's First Fridays Art Walk

Artlink has not restarted the monthly Third Fridays Art Walk due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Nonetheless, many art events are still occuring in the downtown Phoenix area.


Join us on the third Friday of every month for one of downtown Phoenix's signature, ongoing art events. 


While similar in programming to First Fridays, Third Fridays are also known as “Gallery Night.” Many arts destinations and businesses open up, and the visiting crowds are decidedly more arts-focused.

A Co-Production with Theatre Aquarius  
WAITRESS  
Music & Lyrics by Sara Bareilles  
Book by Jessie Nelson  
Based upon the motion picture by Adrienne Shelly  
Directed by Rachel Peake

Jenna lives a small slice of life, in a small town – baking punny pies at work and trying not to think about her troubled marriage at home. Caught off guard by another type of bun in the oven, a thrilling affair, and nowhere else to turn, Jenna wonders if her pie-making talents are her ticket to finding a soft place to land.

With music baked-to-perfection by Grammy Award-winner Sara Bareilles (“She Used to be Mine”, “When He Sees Me”), a story based on the indie cult-classic film starring Keri Russell, and the presence of a _pretty cute_ OB/GYN, _Waitress_ is a musical that has charmed its way across Broadway, the United States, the United Kingdom, and will be brought to life on the Grand Theatre Spriet Stage by Artistic Director, **Rachel Peake**.

In celebration of Reggae Month, the National Gallery of Jamaica (NGJ), in partnership with the [International Reggae Poster Contest (IRPC)](https://reggaepostercontest.com/), proudly presents the _30th Art of Reggae Exhibition_. Mark your calendars for **Sunday, February 23, 2025**, when the exhibition opens at the **National Gallery of Jamaica, 12 Ocean Boulevard, at 1:00 PM**. Guests will also be treated to a special performance by the talented musicians from the **Alpha School of Music**.

## **Honoring Reggae’s Influence on Hip Hop**

This year’s exhibition will feature the **top 100 submissions** from the **9th International Reggae Poster Contest**, centred around the theme **“The Jamaican Roots of Hip Hop.”** The collection pays tribute to the legendary **Clive Campbell, aka DJ Kool Herc**, the Jamaican-born innovator who laid the foundation for hip hop culture.

Born in Kingston, Jamaica, in 1955, Campbell migrated to the Bronx, New York, at age 12, bringing with him the deep musical influence of Jamaica’s sound system culture. Inspired by Jamaican DJs like U-Roy, King Stitt, and Count Matchuki, he revolutionized music by rapping over riddims and perfecting the instrumental break—leading to the creation of the breakbeat, the very heartbeat of hip hop.

## **The Mission of the IRPC**

Founded in 2011 by the late **Michael Thompson and Maria Papaefstathiou**, the International Reggae Poster Contest (IRPC) is a global celebration of reggae and its far-reaching cultural impact. The contest serves a greater purpose—advocating for the establishment of a Reggae Hall of Fame museum and performance center in Kingston, Jamaica. Additionally, it aims to raise awareness and support for **The Alpha Institute** (formerly Alpha Boys School), a vocational institution run by the Sisters of Mercy. The school provides holistic education and training for underprivileged youth, nurturing the next generation of musicians and creatives.

Join us as we celebrate **reggae, hip hop, and Jamaica’s enduring musical legacy**. Whether you’re an art enthusiast, a reggae lover, or simply curious about the roots of hip hop, this exhibition is not to be missed!

Celebrating Reggae Month: The 30th Art of Reggae Exhibition

Join the Arizona Dragon Boat Association on March 29 & 30 for two days of exciting dragon boat competition with teams from all over the United States and beyond.

Dragon Boat Racing is a unique water sports activity that is sure to provide everyone an exciting experience. And yes - even the audience!

Dragon Boat is (usually) a 10-row boat that allows 20 paddlers to paddle in unison, with room for a drummer at the front and a steers person at the back, and the entire boat racing towards the finish line.

This fun-filled, adrenaline pumping competition may have originated in Southern China, but today, Dragon Boat races are held worldwide. It even found its way to a modern man-made lake in the middle of the Arizona desert - the Tempe Town Lake.
