WHITPAIN/POTTSTOWN — The new year brings new opportunit­ies for fun and excitement for the whole family.

Join the Montgomery County Community College Lively Arts Series for its Young Arts Explorers and Family Series for great performanc­es and activities for both children and adults right in your own backyard.

The fun kicks off with “Jeff Boyer’s Bubble Trouble” on Saturday, March 26, at 11 a.m. at Steel River Playhouse, 245 E. High St., Pottstown.

Boyer takes bubbles to the max in this one-man bubble extravagan­za. It is the craziest, most creative bubble show around. Boyer juggles bubbles, sculpts and builds with bubbles, makes fog-filled bubbles and more. Mixing comedy, music and interactiv­e bubble-magic, he engages and delights audiences of all ages.

Pottstown has a growing, vibrant arts scene,” said Senior Director of Cultural Affairs Brent Woods. “‘Jeff Boyer’s Bubble Trouble’ is a wonderful show that’s great for the whole family. It’s a great opportunit­y for parents and grandparen­ts to take their children out on a Saturday morning for a show and some fun downtown.”

Then through the use of live music, dance, and storytelli­ng, “Trekking Mexico,” immerses audiences into the magical realism present in Mexican culture, igniting the imaginatio­n and leaving you

with an enhanced awareness of our global community. The show begins Saturday, April 2, at 11 a.m., in the Eisenhower Science and Technology Leadership Academy Auditorium, 1601 Markley St., Norristown.

“Eisenhower (Science and Technology Leadership Academy) is one of our adopted schools,” said Woods. “This program is an incredible experience showcasing

the beautiful culture, through music and dance, of the Mexican people. It’s a performanc­e you won’t want to miss.”

Tickets to both “Jeff Boyer’s Bubble Trouble” and “Trekking Mexico” are open to the community and are on sale now.

“Through these wonderful performanc­es and activities, families across our region will have plenty of

fun things to see and do together,” said Woods. “Take the kids out for the day and share an incredible experience you won’t forget.”
