Artist-Founder, Roy M. Ropp Returns to Direct Laguna Beach Festival of Arts Preparations for the 1950 Festival of Arts and Pageant of the Masters in Laguna Beach from July 22 to August 6 are off to an early and auspicious start under the second year presidency of portraitist Russell Iredell. Bigger and better than ever, the Pageant, which this year is a Fifteenth Anniversary edition, will be directed by its artist-founder Roy M. Ropp, who returns to the helm for the first time since the war. Laguna's two week spectacle is unique in America, annually attracts more than 50,000 visitors. The spacious Festival site lies in Laguna Canyon at the entrance to Irvine Bowl, a natural amphitheatre where the Pageant is presented nightly. A central outdoor gallery is given over to a juried exhibition sponsored by the Laguna Beach Art Association. Scores of smaller individual booths display the works of local artists, ceramists and other craftsmen, with exhibitors in attendance afternoon and evening. Selected art efforts of Orange County school students occupy a Junior Gallery adjoining the free-for-all children's art class. Another highlight is the Puppet Theatre of Don and Ivy Wilson. The evaluation of this pretentious community enterprise from the first threadbare effort of 1932, when depression-dumped artists hung their canvases on a downtown fence and hoped for the best, has been gradual but continuous except for a four-year quietus during the war. It was in 1935 that Director Ropp first undertook the staging of the Pageant of the Masters—a series of tableaux with townspeople acting as living models, reproducing famous paintings and sculptural works on a picture frame stage. Twenty-two re-creations of masterpieces will be presented each evening, introduced by a spectacular prologue, accompanied by the world's finest music, and separated by explanatory commentaries. Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper" by tradition culminates every performance and makes the Pageant an experience long to be remembered. For Monday nights tickets will be sold on a general admission first-come-first-seated basis, instead of seats being reserved as on other nights throughout the Festival. The grounds open daily at noon.
