WHAT IS THE HUMAN PURPOSE OF THE ARTS? Why are our brains wired to crave and create things like movies, music, tv shows, novels, paintings, et cetera? What is their practical function? And how do the Arts contribute to our most practical function---our ability to survive and thrive? Join local arts-maker LONNIE POTTER (BFA, UNO 1995; MFA, SAIC 2005) for an interactive discussion about the answers to these questions and more. Learn what the Arts are for---how the Arts are tools that help humanity, every day, to rise and meet the challenges of survival.
Lonnie has been refining this talk for a while now. It is clear, concise, and compelling. It's one for the "ART CURIOUS" at least as much as for the artists, so if you area a fan of art and you've been meaning to check out this series, now is the time.
FIRST TUESDAYS at Todd's is a free monthly event series at 6:00 pm on the first Tuesday of each month, at LONG GRAIN FURNITURE, which is the studio of artist and furniture maker Todd McCollister. Each event is different; past events have seen guest speakers, panel discussions, round-table discussions, or no format at all. The main idea is to share our experiences and grow a stronger artist community, so before and after the more formal part, we'll have some time for mixing and mingling. All events are FREE and OPEN to the public. Please share with anyone you think might be interested.
Support for the series, so we can defray some costs, is provided by folks like you, through PATREON. If you can, please consider becoming a patron, at https://www.patreon.com/FinalFridaysAtTodds
