Tuesday, November 24
5pm Art Gallery, Humanities Building
The Tuesday before Thanksgiving, please join Amy Whitaker as she talks about "Lifelong Creativity" in conjunction with her new book, Museum Legs: Fatigue and Hope in the Face of Art.
Museum Legs is a collection of essays that places art museums at the intersection of creativity and public life. It is a funny and engaging look at the history and politics of museums, in a way that invites people to think differently about art and creativity in their own lives.

A student-written and -directed play about the inner workings of the adolescent psych ward. Starring mostly students, one alumna and one local actress, this piece is a starkly humorous and often heartbreaking look into the challenges of mental health care, and the problems of how we conceive "mental health" and "mental illness." Admission is free, but donations are being accepted on behalf of the Neighborhood Involvement Program, a non-profit community healthcare provider in Uptown. Requested donation is 3$; but even 50 cents from 150 guests could be hugely significant. Please give what you can, and enjoy.
