Praise Time with Preacher

Praise Time with Preacher

The word "gospel" is derived for the old Anglo-Saxon word meaning “good message” or “good news." Host Preacher believes gospel music is powerful, whether the listener is or is not Christian — that everyone can enjoy listening to gospel because it is uplifting and inspiring, sung with passion and belief from the artist, touching all who hear it in a good and heartfelt way. The aim of Praise Time is to help listeners find what Preacher believes lives in everyone: a good spirit that drives us to be the best we can be.

Live Tuesday 4-5pm
Replays Sunday 7-8am

Davisville, May 4, 2026: Dating by painting at the Arts Center

Mon, 05/04/2026 - 5:30pm | Bill Buchanan

Paint Date painting pair.jpeg

There are lots of ways to get to know someone you like, lots of ways to date. What if your outing consisted of you painting pictures together with your friend, partner, perhaps prospective spouse? Call it a paint date.

The Davis Arts Center offers a Paint Date workshop as one of its events this spring, on May 16. It’s a clever idea for getting people to think about taking up a paint brush in front of an easel, plus there’s a social side. What do people paint, when they have an hour to paint something, in the presence of a friend? Are there any stories here?

Today on Davisville we talk with the Paint Date instructor, Roshelle Carlson, sometimes known as Miss Rainbow, and Sam King, executive director of the arts center. We’ll also hear about what else the center is doing this spring, and how it’s doing in this, its 67th year. King says they’ve come back strong from the pandemic, and she explains how they did it.

Tune in this Monday, May 4, from 1 to 3 p.m. on KDRT 95.7 FM,  or catch it on demand at KDRT.org. Be there!
