DUCK FOR PRESIDENT - The winds of change are blowing, and a politically ambitious Duck is leading the revolution! But can he bring a new bill to Capitol Hill?
I HAVE TO GO! - Andrew insists that he doesn't need to use the restroom, but once he's zipped, snapped, buttoned, and buckled in the backseat, he hears the call of nature.
LEONARDO, THE TERRIBLE MONSTER - Though he isn't big and he can't seem to frighten anyone, Leonardo just knows he can scare the tuna salad out of the biggest scaredy-cat.
PIRATES DON'T CHANGE DIAPERS - When Jeremy Jacob's old seafaring mateys show up to claim a buried treasure, they wake up his little sister, and the whole piratical crew must go on.

ART Exhibition at the Ansin Family Art Gallery
Inside the Miramar Cultural Center
Also open is Pop Art in America:  From the collection of the Museum of Art | Fort Lauderdale, Nova Southeastern University. This exhibition samples the work of the best known of American Pop artists. Pop art originated in the mid-20th century, and was rooted in the imagery of pop culture and advertising. Artists such as Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg, James Rosenquist and Roy Lichtenstein embraced mass media, and often employed mechanical processes to create their work rather than those traditionally associated with fine art.
The Ansin Family Art Gallery is open Monday, Wednesday & Friday 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.; Tuesday & Thursday 10 a.m.– 7 p.m.  Donations are suggested.
