Humpty-Dumpty Is Missing! is an affectionate spoof of the private-eye thrillers of the 1940s and '50s . Sammy Scoop is a private investigator in the tradition of his grandfather, Samuel Shovel and his father, Sam Spade. Sammy faces the biggest challenge of his illustrious career with the sudden fall and disappearance of the jolly Humpty-Dumpty who apparently had no enemies. But Sammy and his sidekick, Alice from Dallas, soon come up with a list of suspects who had motive and, perhaps, opportunity. Mistress Mary, Rip Van Winkle, Henny-Penny, Peter Rabbit and his sisters, Rapunzel and the Handsome Prince (who, because he is a painter, prefers to be called the Artist Formerly Known As the Handsome Prince) are among the many suspects called onto the carpet. A last-minute surprise appearance by two of fairy tales most celebrated characters, Mother Goose and Mother Hubbard, finally help Sammy and Alice nab the culprit (the least likely suspect, of course—we'd never break tradition in that important area).
Let's Paint a Mural! 
Picture
 We are excited to announce that Artist Brian Tull has been selected for Arts in McNairy's new Rockabilly Highway mural commission! As you may know, Brian is the creative force behind the two iconic murals in downtown Selmer and we are thrilled to be working with him again. We can't wait to get started!
Much more information soon, but in the mean time, hop over to the new mural's GoFundMe page to help us fund another public art masterpiece in McNairy County! Let's create something together. Click here for more information.
