Medea is a sorceress who is a refugee in a foreign land with her two sons. Her husband Jason is wooed by King Creon to marry Creon’s daughter and thus\, to abandon Medea. This centuries-old tale and its themes of betrayal\, misogyny\, and revenge still resonate and ring strongly in our modern day.  URL:https://historicvenues.pgparks.com/event_list/medea-by-euripides-5 CATEGORIES:Arts,Performance ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://historicvenues.pgparks.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/HHAC-Medea-2026-600x400-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20261116 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20270110 DTSTAMP:20260803T141527Z CREATED:20251121T152905Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260803T141527Z UID:10000410-1794787200-1799539199@historicvenues.pgparks.com SUMMARY:Ceej Maples: Good Luck with That DESCRIPTION:In partnership with Art Enables\, Brentwood Arts Exchange is proud to present the solo exhibition Good Luck with That by artist Ceej Maples. Weaving humor\, pain\, and irony into every work\, Maples uses his art as both a profound form of self-expression and a vital tool for navigating physical and mental challenges. \n\n\n\nGood Luck with That explores the spectrum of the human experience\, confronting hardships with wit and imagination. The title piece captures this sentiment perfectly\, a blend of earnestness and sarcasm that acknowledges life’s difficulties while proving that creativity makes the journey more bearable. Maples’ inventive and playful works invite viewers to find hope in difficult moments\, serving as a powerful celebration of resilience and the healing power of art.  URL:https://historicvenues.pgparks.com/event_list/ceej-maples-good-luck-with-that CATEGORIES:All Ages,Arts,Exhibition,Free ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://historicvenues.pgparks.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/BAE-Ceej-Maples-2-2026-600x400-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20261116 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20270110 DTSTAMP:20260803T141528Z CREATED:20260803T141528Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260803T141528Z UID:10006188-1794787200-1799539199@historicvenues.pgparks.com SUMMARY:Shifting Grounds: 38th Annual Prince George's County Juried Exhibition DESCRIPTION:From personal evolution to shifts in community\, environment\, and technology\, the present moment can feel uncertain or even unmoored as ideologies and identities are reconfigured.
