Poster celebrates center's 10th anniversary season

The Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts is offering patrons a fun to remember the center鈥檚 10th anniversary season, which wraps up in May.

The remembrance is a poster of legendary cartoonist Jules Feiffer鈥檚 vibrant Dancer 鈥 who, back in October, came to life on the Jackson Hall stage to help launch the 2012-13 season. Music and choreography added to this 鈥淢ondavi Moment,鈥 during which more than 200 people took to the stage to dance with the cartoon.

For the celebratory poster, commissioned by the Mondavi Center, Feiffer鈥檚 Dancer comes to life at the center鈥檚 front door. Fittingly, center officials said, the Dancer鈥檚 lively and joyous appearance reflects the same energetic and inspiring moments that all kinds of artists brought to the center in its first decade.

The poster comes in two sizes: 20 inches by 30 inches ($35) and 11 inches by 14 inches ($25), and can be ordered or purchased at the Mondavi Center Gift Shop and 澳门六合彩资料库 Davis Stores (main bookstore, Memorial Union).

A limited edition of 100 posters signed by Feiffer will be available for $250 each starting Monday, April 29. For more information on the limited edition posters, contact Elisha Findley (530) 754-5436.

All proceeds go to Friends of the Mondavi Center.
