An art fair, a fantasy painter, an encaustic artist, and 'No Sex Please, We're British'

With the return of Fall into Art this weekend after a 2-year hiatus, Diana Moxon chats with one of the art fair's organizers, Melynda Lotven, about the event's new venue and the challenges of re-starting the festival, plus she chats with two of the exhibiting artists - St Louis-based surreal and fantasy painter, Mollie Chounard, and encaustic artist and jeweler, Jamie Scheppers from Columbia. And as Columbia Entertainment Company moves into the final weekend for its production of the classic 1970's farce 'No Sex Please, We're British' Diana goes behind the scenes with director Terry Schoonover and actor Ginger Cawley and gives them a No Sex Please trivia quiz.

What is Speaking of the Arts?

Speaking of the Arts is mid-Missouri's only weekly arts show. The show is hosted by Diana Moxon, who chats with actors, directors, authors, musicians, festival directors, event organizers, arts curators, and artists about the events they are involved in and also about their own works and their influences. Whilst the show focuses mainly on the mid-Missouri arts scene, Diana's guests have included international composers, conductors, authors as well as artists, musicians, and performers from around Missouri.
