Fleitas says a jester, who acts as
the master of ceremonies, is
needed for the program. She en
courages people who like to speak
in front of a crowd to audition for
the part.
"He (the jester) has to be a witty
person, one that can interact with
the audience,” she says. "Once
the show goes on, it’s in the hands
of the jester.”
But not only actors, musicians
and singers are asked to partici
pate. Fleitas emphasized that any
one interested is encouraged to
audition for one of the many roles.
She said the roles are challenging
and enjoyable for students.
In fact, many of the students
who have participated before en
joyed the experience so much
they returned the next year,
Fleitas says.
"The majority of the students
that are in the Madrigal Dinners
come hack," she says.

Bryan and College Station resi
dents interested in weaving, tex-
ile fabric printing, quilting and
ue work are invited to parti
cipate in a community project that
‘arts Monday at the College Sta
tion Community Center.
The project, a three-panel Fiber
design, was designed by Linda
Greaves, newly appointed artist-
presidence for the City of Col-
;e Station.
Greaves resigned as assistant
manager of the Memorial Student
Center Craft Shop in order to
coordinate the community pro
ject.
The design was picked by a
panel of judges in a contest spon
sored by the Arts Council of Bra
zos Valley. The project was cre
ated by Jody Bates, former dire
ctor for the arts council, to Find a
to decorate the multi
purpose room of the Community
Center.
The fiber for the 4-by-6 panels
ill be hand dyed from such
lings as onion, indigo, tea and
iffee.
The first panel of the the fiber
design will be small weavings
made from wool, cotton, horsehair
and other natural materials in the
Brazos area.
The second panel will be a sur
face design taken from historical
pictures of Bryan and College Sta
tion. Greaves said the pictures
will include an old train depot and
the first school house.
The third panel will be made
from needlepoint designs of
brands used by local cattle ran
chers.
Peggy Calliham, director of the
community center, said the pro
ject is intended to attract students
from elementary through high
school and senior citizen groups.
But, she said, anyone is welcome
to help.
"It will be great to have a little
community spirit in putting
together the decoration,” Calli
ham said.
Newsletters were sent to local
schoolteachers to encourage them
to bring students on Field trips to
the community center and help
with the project.
The initial work will be done
during the first six weeks, Greaves
said. The piecing together oF the
project will begin in November,
she said, and probably be com
pleted in December.
Greaves said she is excited ab
out the project and hopes it will
lead to Future projects in the Col
lege Station area.
