By Katie Albright · Wednesday, Jan. 29,2003 11:42 p.m.

A "cheers" to the lassies, a bagpipe rendition and a birthday cake big enough to feed an army -- all contributed to the success of the annual Burns Night Supper. The dinner took place Saturday evening inside the Indiana Memorial Union's Tudor Room. The Scottish Society of Greater Bloomington hosted the celebration with a cuisine and itinerary to make the would-be 244-year-old Robert Burns do a jig in his grave.

New art gallery to open

By Erin Thieme · Wednesday, Jan. 29,2003 1:11 a.m.

The love and drive of the arts bring inspiration to Bloomington. Bloomington's newest gallery, The Gallery North, plans to inform and educate the community about the many creative outlets of a work of art. While the gallery has been in operation since December 2002, the grand opening of the gallery is from 5:30 to 10 p.m on Feb. 7. A silent auction will be held with a portion of the proceeds going to the Hoosier Hills Food Bank. Well-known Nashville artist Charlene Marsh will be the guest artist featured in the Spectrum Gallery. The gallery was started at the end of September 2002 by gallery president Jackie White and Paula Bates. They wanted to offer a venue for emerging as well as well-established artists, Bates said. The club of 38 members spans from young student members to a woman in her 80s.

By Alyson Brodsy and Michael Kuchwara · Tuesday, Jan. 28,2003 11:52 p.m.

NEW YORK -- That golden haze on the meadow is a bit brighter the second time around. The current Broadway revival of "Oklahoma!" received a muted welcome from many of the critics when it opened at the Gershwin Theatre last March. Tasteful, a tad sedate and a little reverential, the production was intimidated perhaps by the show's standing as a landmark of the American musical theater.
