After Hours Cabaret
Saturday, November 7
American Stage, St. Petersburg
STAFF PICK: VENUE

The not-so-well-known Broadway selections are bolstered by Latin favorites and art songs. Mix in a dash of rum and a twist of lime, mix well, and enjoy the show.

Art in Science -- Science in Art
Saturday, November 7
Museum of Science & Industry (MOSI), Tampa
STAFF PICK: VENUE
"Art microscopist" T. H. Saunders showcases sixty images of his craft -- pictures captured with high def photography and precision optics microscopes. Dazzling images of mundane objects -- Tylenol doped with coffee, tea, wine, beer and more -- are no larger than the tip of a needle and are recorded using cross-polarization lighting techniques. It sounds technical, but there's nothing confusing about the colorful, whimsical patterns that Saunders creates with his combination of art and science. On display through Jan. 3.
