This free monthly event for live poetry reading at The Cup will pair flow with joe, rhythm and brews, beats and beans, and result in many a steamed stanza.

PlySpace Resident Artists Danielle Joy Graves and Nick Witten invite high school and foundation-level college student artists to join them for a free day-long workshop on professional practice for artists and contemporary art issues.

https://www.eventbrite.com/e/professional-art-practice-pancake-extravaganza-tickets-45252947785?aff=efbeventtix

The workshop will be geared toward students looking to pursue a career in fine art. Through discussions, presentations, and demonstrations, participants will be introduced to resume building, careers and alternative jobs in the art world, and contemporary art practice. A pancake breakfast will be provided (gluten and dairy free).

In the afternoon, students are also invited to join a group critique of participant's artwork. Students will learn how to photograph their work for a professional portfolio, and the photographic documentation taken during the workshop will be published online for participants to use for future applications and websites. Nick and Danielle will also publish documentation of each critique online so students will be able to use that credential on their resumes.

The event is free and open to any students interested in art practice. Students are encouraged to bring a few pieces of work for the group critique and to have photographed during the demonstration. Participants are welcome to attend the entire day, or just the workshop they find most interesting. Breakfast is provided but please bring your own lunch.

FINAL FRIDAY: LIFE

Emcees Braydee Euliss & C.S. Hendershot introduce PechaKucha* talks to Muncie to highlight what is unique, unexpected, and inspiring in our city.

Enjoy music by DJ Jannell, refreshments & cash bar, art, and a first look at DOMA's special exhibitions: Gorey's Worlds from the Wadsworth Atheneum and The Power of Place: 100 Years of Architecture at Ball State University, organized in partnership with the College of Architecture and Planning and University Libraries.

6 - 9 pm | Art, music by DJ Jannell, refreshments, and more
7 pm | PechaKucha* talks on Life

More to come—check back for details on activities and presenters!

*PechaKucha, Japanese for "chit chat," is a concise presentation format where 20 images are timed to automatically advance every 20 seconds as a presenter talks along. Each presentation lasts only 6 minutes, 40 seconds. This is an informal and fun gathering where creative people get together and share their ideas, works, thoughts, snaps—just about anything, really—in the PechaKucha format.

Join Erin Monroe, the Robert H. Schutz, Jr., Associate Curator of American Paintings and Sculpture at the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, for a richly illustrated talk about the artist Edward Gorey and DOMA's special exhibition, "Gorey's Worlds."

A 5 p.m. reception precedes the 6 p.m. talk, and the exhibition will remain open until 8 p.m. for those who wish to enjoy an informed viewing following the lecture.

Event is free and open to the public. See bsu.edu/doma/exhibitions for more information on the exhibition and other related programs.

Unless otherwise noted, the works of Edward Gorey in this exhibition have been provided by the Edward Gorey Charitable Trust.
