a lovely performance photograph showing a saxophonist in action during what appears to be a jazz performance. The musician is wearing glasses and a dark shirt, playing what looks like an alto or tenor saxophone. The atmospheric lighting creates a beautiful blue and purple ambiance typical of jazz club settings, with dramatic stage lighting highlighting the performer against the darker background.

a vibrant promotional poster for "Club Groovy Funky Family Fest" taking place on Saturday, 9th August from 1-2pm at The Point Theatre, ARC Stockton.

There's someone in a yellow chicken/bird costume on the left, and several people in playful, vibrant outfits including tie-dye, sequins, and fringe. A disco ball is prominently featured in the centre of the image. The text is designed in a retro 70s-inspired style, with "FUNKY FAMILY FEST" in large, stylised letters across a yellow/orange paint-splash background.

a bright yellow background with a man and woman in 1940s period costume. The woman wears a red dress with white trim and has blonde hair flowing in the wind. The man behind her wears a green and white striped shirt and a flat cap, smoking a pipe. They appear to be running or moving dynamically across the poster. The title "CAROUSEL" is displayed prominently in large, decorative letters with red heart symbols dotting the text. Above the title, "RODGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN'S" appears in white text on a blue banner.

In the lower right, another couple is shown - a woman with auburn hair and blue eyes looking at a man, also in naval attire.
