Arts reporter and critic Rosemary Ponnekanti keeps you in touch with the arts and culture scene with the help of other News Tribune writers, critics and editors.
Rosemary Ponnekanti is the arts reporter at The News Tribune, and has been a classical music nerd nearly all her life. Besides spending way too much time in galleries, museums and concert halls, she occasionally brings a whistle or double bass to Celtic jam sessions, and insists on singing "Happy Birthday" in four-part harmony.

Good news--Elise Richman's dreamily surreal series of 3D encaustic oils has been extended at Kittredge Gallery. This assistant professor at UPS does work based on the shape and feel of San Juan Island, ending up almost tropical in ultra-saturated aquas, turquoises and lime-greens. The show repopens after Thanksgiving on Dec. 2, through Dec. 15. The annual student show runs in the big gallery.
Kittredge has also posted a Richman podcast in their series of 10-minute discussions between artist and students.
Visitors can also check out an ipod in the gallery to listen to podcasts while visiting.
Kittredge Gallery is open 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Mondays-Fridays, noon-5 p.m. Saturdays at the University of Puget Sound, at the corner of Lawrence and North 15th Streets, Tacoma. 253-879-2806, www.ups.edu/kittredge.xml
