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.

Bellevue Arts Museum is adjusting its opening hours, opening every day of the week but beginning later in the day. And to kick things off, the museum will offer a 50% discount on admission on all four Mondays during the month of April.
Seriously, folks. It ain't no April Fool thang.
The new hours of operation are 11 a.m.-5 p.m. Mondays-Thursdays, 11 a.m.-8 p.m. Fridays and noon-5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays.
According to the press release, by adjusting the hours of operation the museum will "be able to make the most efficient use of its resources for admissions, retail and security."
Free First Friday will continue to be held the first Friday of every month with free admission to the museum’s galleries all day in addition to lectures, artist demonstrations and other activities.
Museum admission will remain the same ($9 adults, $7 seniors/ students, free for children under 6, free for members) except on those half-price April Mondays.
So what's on view at Bellevue? Some really good stuff.
"The Book Borrowers: Contemporary Artists Transforming the Book" (through June 16); "American Quilt Classics, 1800 – 1980: The Bresler Collection" (through May 31), "Intertwined: Contemporary Baskets from the Sara and David Lieberman Collection" (through March 22) and "Etsuko Ichikawa: Traces of the Molten State" (through May 3). On April 9, a new exhibition by renowned Northwest wood sculptor Michael Peterson will open to the public.
