Robinson Film Center Opening Gala, Week One Announced

Everything's coming together for the opening of the Robinson Film Center, Shreveport's latest cultural resource. The grand opening gala will be on Saturday, May 3rd at 7:00pm. Tickets are available by calling (318) 424-9090. They're $150 each, which is kind of pricey. However, all the money is fundraising for the center, which is a good thing!
