In case you haven't already been notified, the Royal Crown Revue concert set to happen tonight at the Rialto Theatre has been canceled. You can still get your money back at the place you bought your tickets, as long as you're nice about it. Since now you don't have anything to do, swing over to Central Arts Collective, 188 E. Broadway, for MIMESIS 4. It's an exhibition of work by graduate and undergraduate printmakers from the University of Arizona, as well as alumni and even a professor. Gallery hours are noon to 4 p.m., so make it an early date.
