CULTURAL SEASON T here’s a lot going on in Columbia, and if you don’t know that then you haven’t been paying attention.

That’s where the annual Free Times Cultural Season insert comes in. Here, you’ll find listings for hundreds of upcoming arts-related events, including arts exhibitions; classical, choral and opera perfor-

mances; films; theatrical productions; dance performances; literary events; and more.

If you’re already into the arts, then you already know the value of our annual calendar. If you’re new to the area or a newcomer to the arts, here’s your chance to catch up.

For further information about specific events, your best bet is to

follow organizations’ websites and Facebook pages — and to check Free Times in print and online (free-times.com) regularly.

Of course, schedules sometimes change, so be sure to check with the specific organization or venue as dates approach.
