SAN ANGELO, Texas — When I was in elementary school, first learning about the seasons of the year, I remember instantly finding fall and spring fascinating. Not only are the visuals during these times of year some of the most inspiring elements of the human experience, but also the notion of what is happening is quite a powerful sentiment.
I was taught that fall and spring are times of transition. Fall is the season where life begins to feel compelled to go to sleep or complete a cycle. Spring is the season where life begins to wake up or begin anew. The notion that a period of transition can manifest itself with vibrant colors and powerful storms (I was also taught that storms are Mother Nature’s attempt to “right” the world again) makes the scary idea of “transition” seem beautiful and necessary — and right.
A family obligation pulls me away from San Angelo in a hurry. I wish the transition could happen a different way, but I am reminded that I am a human being and am not in charge of the way life flows. I’ve worked hard while I’ve been here, and I’m happy to have served Angelo Civic Theatre and the community of San Angelo to the best of my ability.
It seems the role of a human being is to wish, work and serve, then let go of all expectations or attachments. Seems like an impossible task. At least we can party!
Chefs Gone Wild is one way Angelo Civic Theatre will be celebrating spring and transition. Angelo Civic Theatre and the Texas Chefs Association have partnered to create a fabulously fun event to be held at Angelo Civic Theatre on Saturday night.
The event will feature the culinary genius of Jason Helfer of Peasant Village, Billy Hillis and Robert Martinez of Chartwells at ASU, Larry Lambert and Rudy Perez of Shannon Medical Center, Manny Martinez of Miss Hattie’s, Liz and JR Matthews of Silo House, Mike O’Neill of Sealy Flats, Sergio Rico of Community Medical Center, Jeff Utter of Feffer’s, and Henry Wiens of Community Medical Center.
These chefs will create appetizers with the best flavors in the world. The funds raised from the event will go to support the artistic programming of Angelo Civic Theatre and scholarship funds for the Texas Chefs Association.
Hope you will join Angelo Civic Theatre and the chefs Saturday night!
