Tickets for Party Arty, the annual see-andbe-seen celebration of the Nelson-Atkins’ Young Friends of Art, are totally sold out. At last look, tickets were selling for up to $200 on Craigslist. That’s a steep price for “Eternal Spring,” this year’s theme. But it might just be worth it, with catering from North, Cooper’s Hawk, Tito’s Vodka, Patrón, and others. The party starts at 8 p.m. (Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, 4525 Oak, 816-751-1278) and builds anticipation for the Nelson-Atkins’ next big exhibit: Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera and Masterpieces of Modern Mexico From the Jacques and Natasha Gelman Collection.

arlier this month, National Geographic News posted a photo of a bald eagle with leucism, a mutation that produces white spots on an animal’s body from lack of pigmentation. Photographer Traci Walter called the sighting unforgettable. Watch for leucistic eagles during the 12th Annual Eagle Day at Mr. & Mrs. F.L. Schlagle Library (4051 West Drive, Kansas City, Kansas, 913-299-2384) and J.P. Davis Hall (North 91st Street and Leavenworth Road, 913-596-7077), located at opposite sides of Wyandotte County Lake, which organizer Jessica Lawrenz calls a prime feeding ground. “If the water is frozen and the eagles can’t catch fish, they’ll prey on the old, weak and injured waterfowl,” she says, warning of bird-on-bird violence. The free event includes live bird presentations, binocular and field-guide checkouts, and eagle crafts for the kids. Activities go from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. See kckpl.org for more information.

Ballet-dancing Billy Elliot can’t catch a break. His mum is dead, his dad and brother are caught up in the mid-1980s coal miners’ strikes, and his best friend is gay. His fictional struggles, set to the music of Elton John, make up the plot of the Tony Award– winning Billy Elliot: The Musical. It finishes its KC tour today at the Music Hall (301 West 13th Street). Performances are at 1 and 6:30, and tickets cost $35–$75. See kansascity. broadway.com or call 816-513-5000.
