Creativity unleashed

Published July 21, 2005

Your pet disappears. You want closure. What do you do? If you're playwright and author Bill Leavengood, you write about it.

Cat Moon Do is a children's book with illustrations by Michelle Feulner-Castro about a missing cat and his feline pals who set out to find him. Feulner-Castro's charming paintings for it, including one shown above, will be on display at the Arts Center, 719 Central Ave., St. Petersburg, beginning Friday through Aug. 21. Unlike most real-life tales of lost pets, including Leavengood's, this one ends happily.

Leavengood will be at the Arts Center at 11 a.m. Aug. 3 for a reading of Cat Moon Do.

Also opening at the Arts Center, "Marks and Metaphor: 2005 Members' Exhibition," "Rose Marie Prins: Enigmas" and "Rebecca Skelton: Rondo." (727) 822-7872.
