THIS WEEKEND
The gallery at the Coastal Arts League Museum is opening a new exhibit entitled "Visions Revisited." Artist Arabella M. Decker has created this mixed media show by using upon biblical and historical figures. Her work will be displayed until Dec. 6 at the gallery located at 300 Main St. in Half Moon Bay.

Mountain View's Center for Performing Arts hosts a variety of local and international performances groups on its stage. For only two weeks, the Peninsula Youth Theater will bring our community "Seussical: The Musical." The show made a splash on Broadway a few years ago.

Showtimes are 7:30 p.m. for evening performances and 2 p.m. for Sunday matinees at the main stage located at 500 Castro St. Please call 903-6000 to purchase tickets.
