Attendees will learn more about creative placemaking in general\, the Artists on Main Street Initiative\, examples of projects funded in other MN communities\, and the project parameters specific to Northfield. \nThe name of Northfield’s initiative is “Connection/Conexión.” Project funding will be available to any artist\, creative\, or maker living or working within the Northfield Public School district boundary. Projects will use art\, creativity\, events or performances to help to draw people from across Highway 3 to downtown and create connections between people and places within our downtown. \nProjects should occur within the boundaries of 2nd street on the north\, 5th street on the south\, the railroad tracks on the west side of Highway 3 and the East Riverwalk/backs of Division St. buildings on the east. All cultures\, ages\, and styles of creativity are welcome! A full call for proposals will be distributed at the workshops. The project’s fund of $15\,000 will support 10-15 projects that will be selected by a Public Art Review Committee\, a process facilitated by the City of Northfield’s Arts and Culture Commission. Projects must be implemented between May-October 2019. \nFunding applicants must have attended a creative placemaking workshop in order to be considered for funding. Light snacks and beverages will be provided\, and a bilingual Spanish interpreter will be available as well. \nThe Creative Placemaking workshops will take place on Friday\, March 8 from 5:30-8:30 pm at the Northfield Arts Guild\, and Saturday\, March 9 from 9 am-12 pm at the Northfield Public Library. Registration for the workshops is free\, but attendees should RSVP at http://downtownnorthfield.org if they plan to attend. \nAbout the Artists on Main Street Initiative and Partners \nThe Northfield Downtown Development Corporation was awarded a $30\,000 grant through the Artists on Main Street community development initiative in Fall 2018. The\nprogram is a partnership between the Preservation Alliance of Minnesota (PAM) and Springboard for the Arts\, with support from the Bush Foundation. The program explores the intersection of arts and culture\, downtown revitalization\, and historic preservation in eleven Minnesota Main Street communities over a four year period. \nMinnesota Main Street is an economic development program of PAM that uses a historic preservation based strategy to revitalize downtown districts in Greater Minnesota communities. The program works with communities long-term and provides training and resources\, including a Main Street Project Fund; to help community members revitalize their downtown. \nSpringboard for the Arts is a national leader in creative community development. Their approach is rooted in the principles of community organizing and focuses on a “lots of little” strategy that surfaces unrecognized leaders in communities\, builds public narratives from a multiplicity of perspectives and voices; and creates low-risk opportunities for collaboration. This equity-based model centers on the lives and experiences of the people in and of the place; values the relationships\, partnerships\, and creative capacity that artists and communities build together; and aims to build power and agency for individuals\, neighborhoods and communities. \nAbout the Northfield Downtown Development Corporation \nThe Northfield Downtown Development Corporation (NDDC) is a nonprofit organization founded in 2000 to support\, strengthen\, and grow Northfield’s unique downtown district. It is made up of business owners\, buildings owners\, and engaged residents who value the role downtown plays in Northfield’s vibrancy. \nNorthfield\, Minnesota\, is a picturesque river town with a walkable downtown district along the scenic Cannon River. Northfield is home to St Olaf and Carleton Colleges\, and so is one of the upper Midwest’s best college towns. It is home to historic buildings\, a swirl of art and cultural activities\, state-of-the-art businesses\, a rich offering of hotels and restaurants\, and a sophisticated retail environment. \nThe program will help the NDDC to sustain a vibrant downtown by providing art and creative placemaking experiences that draw people to shop\, dine and connect in Downtown Northfield; enhancing the downtown’s aesthetics through the creativity of our local artists; and utilizing the arts as a springboard for improving diversity and inclusiveness in Downtown Northfield across all cultures. As the Designated MN Main Street organization\, the NDDC will coordinate the Artists on Main Street program in collaboration with the City of Northfield’s Arts & Culture Commission and the Northfield Arts Guild.

SUMMARY:Lysistrata
DESCRIPTION:by Aristophanes \nPart of our 2017-18 Striking Conversations Theater Season\nThe original burlesque comedy about\njust wanting to live in peace!\nA hit since 411 B.C.\, this social spoof offers a surprisingly contemporary take on anti-war sentiment and the creative spirit. The comedy glorifies the power of women in the face of battle\, and playwright Nicholas Rudall’s new translation captures the splendid variety of Aristophanes’ astute theatricality and poetic wit. \nAthens and Sparta have been at war for years with no end in sight. Peace-loving Lysistrata has a solution – she unites the women of both city-states to withhold sexual relations to encourage their soldiers to come to their senses. Putting the plan into action\, however\, proves more difficult and hilarious than anyone imagined.  This production contains mature comedic content and language. \nNicholas Rudall says of the play\, “What the women are saying is\, ‘We will produce no more children for men to use as the fodder of war.’  This is a play about fertility and survival\, rather than sex\, frustration\, and gratification.” \nBe prepared to laugh! Without apology\, this production contains zestfully mature comedic content and language.\nPerformances:\nFriday\, June 22\, 2018 at 7:30pm (Opening Night Reception)\nSaturday\, June 23\, 2018 at 7:30pm\nSunday\, June 24\, 2018 at 7:30pm (Pre-show Discussion at 7:00)\nThursday\, June 28\, 2018 at 7:30pm\nFriday\, June 29\, 2018 at 7:30pm* \nSaturday\, June 30\, 2018 at 7:30pm \n\nThe Guild is offering ASL translation for the June 29th performance with advance notice to the office no later June 8th:  507-645-8877 or theater@northfieldartsguild.org\n\nVenue:  Northfield Arts Guild Theater\, 411 Third Street W\, Northfield\n(The show was previously slated for Central Park\, but all performances have been moved to the theater.)
