CALENDAR OF EVENTS DECEMBER MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS HOUSTON Monet and the Seine: Impressions of a River Oct 26, 2014 - Feb 1, 2015 Law Building, Second Floor 1001 Bissonnet “I have painted the Seine throughout my life, at every hour, at every season. I have never tired of it: for me the Seine is always new.”

—Claude Monet CALENDAR

6

Monet and the Seine: Impressions of a River examines Claude Monet’s abiding fascination with the Seine by tracing his life along the iconic French waterway, both chronologically and geographically. Monet (1840–1926) used the river from an early point in his career to explore many of the artistic concerns that define his oeuvre, such as the transformative effects of light and atmosphere.

This beautiful exhibition brings together more than 50 paintings on loan from locations around the world. Beginning with scenes of leisure activities, modern life, and

cityscapes along the Seine, the presentation culminates in the ethereal works from the Impressionist painter’s famous Mornings on the Seine series.

Amaluna invites the audience to a mysterious island governed by Goddesses and guided by the cycles of the moon.

Their queen, Prospera, directs her daughter’s coming-of-age ceremony in a rite that honours femininity, renewal, rebirth and balance which marks the passing of these insights and values from one generation to the next.

In the wake of a storm caused by Prospera, a group of young men lands on the island, triggering an epic, emotional story of love between Prospera’s daughter and a brave young suitor. But theirs is a love that will be put to the test. The couple must face numerous demanding trials and overcome daunting setbacks before they can achieve mutual trust, faith and harmony.

Employee SPOTLIGHT

Shaft “Lee” Dail

Jack & Pamela Wright, owners

I’ve been in the pawn business for approximately 10 years; the last two years here at the wonderful Wright Pawn and Jewelry. Just when you think you’ve seen it all something new comes through the door. The best thing about this store is Jack and Pamela Wright!

They are the most fair and professional business owners I have ever been involved with. They genuinely love their customers, their business and their employees.

I have worked for 4 years in the jewelry business as a GIA Accredited Jewelry Professional; the last two years at Wright Pawn and Jewelry. I truly love my job because no two days are alike. I also really enjoy helping customers find the “perfect” gift and being a part of their special moment in life. The best part of working at Wright Pawn and Jewelry is getting to work with such great people.

Linda Calk I have been working at Wright Pawn and Jewelry for over 2 years and every day is a unique day full of new experiences.

Working in this environment has given me a new perspective of the pawn business. Pamela and Jack Wright make this business the “Wright” place to be, and the “Wright” place to work! It’s an honor to work with highcaliber people like Pamela and Jack.

Jarah E. Flores Eight years of pawn experience makes me realize my love, passion and dedication for this industry. I especially love my job because of the people I work with and being able to help customers. But the best thing is working every day for Wright Pawn and Jewelry.
