AUBURN — The Auburn Cultural Council’s first “Art for the Arts” Show and Sale Saturday, April 10, was a huge success. The Pakachoag Church served as an excellent venue for the 20 local artists to display their exceptional talents. Beautiful oils, acrylics, pastels, pencil drawings, photographs, fabric and mixed-media framed art were complimented by soft music for a reflective stroll past the 51 exhibits. Visitors renewed acquaintances as they relaxed and enjoyed complimentary refreshments. Artists mingled and discussed their motivations and techniques in response to guests’ ques- tions. Participating artists from Auburn and Oxford were: Blair Cote, Rebecca Day, Irene Dabrowski, Mary Lou Delonghzmps, Loretta Hall, Monica Hamilton, Marilyn Kulesa, Rosalie LaCroix, Joy O’Connor, Antoinette Pacifico, Bill Parandes, Lorna Parandes, Elyse Parandes, Bryan Parandes, Lorna Pezanelli, Steve Provost, Monica Przelomski-Pacifco, Tammy Rebello, Eleena Rioux-Olsen and Wayne Yacino. They were enthusiastic about ACC continuing the “Art for the Arts” on an annual basis. The council members are Co-Chairpersons Ginger Pellicano and Anne Berberian, Coordinator and Resident Artist Marilyn Kulesa, Ellen Gaboury, Diane Auger, Roberta Stencil, Sue Allen and Kathy Papineau. ACC is a local agency funded by the MA Cultural Council. This event used no state funds but was supported through the in-kind donations of Pakachoag Church, Shaw’s, and the Millbury and Auburn Cultural Councils.

BY KEITH GRIFFIN

It was fun this year heading down to the westside of Manhattan for the annual New York International Auto Show. The last couple of years have been a little subdued but this show had a lot to offer in terms of introductions (19 in all). Here are just a few from a couple of busy days during the media preview. Of course my heart will always be with the New England International Auto Show in Boston, but if you ever have the chance get down to the New York Show, which is always held around Easter. Equus on Equal Footing with Lexus, Mercedes Hyundai has stepped up its game ten- fold with the introduction of the 2011 Hyundai Equus sedan. The Korean manu- facturer’s new flagship is going to turn heads with its features, looks and price. The luxury sedan has a longer wheel- base than the Lexus LS 460, is reminiscent of a previous generation Mercedes S class in its design, comes packed with an amaz- ing litany of features, and, when it’s intro- duced in the fall, will cost between $50,000 to $60,000. That’s at least $5000 below the LS 460 and $35,000 below the S class. The Equus is practically Maybach in its features, among them: * Heated, cooled and (optional) massage seats for the driver * Reclining rear heat and cooled seats Photo © Hyundai with footrest The Hyundai Equus is the Korean automaker’s first stab at a high-end luxury car for the North American market.
