ArtyFacts for January
Are you looking for love and laughter in Paris with someone special this Valentine’s Day? Then plan to attend the Paris Henry County Arts Council’s 2nd Annual Love & Laughter event at the Paris Convention Center on Saturday, February 13! What better way to celebrate than dinner and a show with your loved one?
The evening begins with a social time with the Paris Winery, followed by a meal catered by Show Thyme Catering with dinner music provided by the Shepherd Family, then the evening is finished with a family friendly comedy show by David Ferrell.
For over 20 years, comedian and motivational speaker David Ferrell has shown audiences that comedy can be clean and funny! He is a multi-year nominee for Comedian of the Year by The Inspirational Country Music Awards and has been named one of the top “Hot Acts in America” by Event Solutions Magazine. David can be heard on Sirius XM radio’s “Laugh USA.” In addition to his uproarious tales about everyday life, David delights audiences with hilarious impressions of famous celebrities, cartoon characters, farm animals and many more!
Tickets can be purchased at the downtown branches of Commercial Bank and Security Bank, Foundation Bank on East Wood, and at Boutique MariMac, My Favorite Things, and The Iron Place. Tickets can also be purchased through the Arts Council at www.phcarts.com or through any board member. Dinner and show tickets are $75 per couple or $40 per person.
