SUMMARY:FREE Workshop: Writing as Excavation
DESCRIPTION:The Northfield Arts Guild hosts…\nWriting as Excavation\nTHIS WORKSHOP IS NOW FULL! To be added to the wait list\, please email Megan Proft at megan@northfieldartsguild.org . \nIn this free\, immersive workshop\, you’ll use generative exercises to unearth the stories within us that are awaiting disclosure and discovery. Exploring new imaginative terrain can be intimidating. Yet it is the writer’s task to peel back layers\, pursue deeper truths\, and see past the surface of the familiar. Using writing prompts that operate as invitations\, you’ll excavate past creative blocks\, find permission to articulate interior worlds\, and locate the heart of our stories in order to bring them to life. \n Please bring to class the following items:  \n\nSomething to write with or on: notebook\, pen\, laptop.\nA spirit of creativity\, a sense of openness\, and a willingness to explore new depths in your writing.\n\n The workshop will be guided in its work by the words of Gaston Bachelard: “When it comes to excavated ground\, dreams have no limit.” \n  \nThis workshop is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund. Although free of charge for all participants\, donations ($10 suggested) are welcome and gratefully received. \n About Lara Palmqvist\n \nLara Palmqvist is the recipient of a 2019 Minnesota State Arts Board Artist Initiative Grant and a 2019 Elizabeth George Foundation grant for emerging writers. She was a 2017-2018 Fiction Fellow in the Loft Literary Center Mentor Series. Her writing appears in platforms such as The Washington Post and Ploughshares.com\, and has additionally been honored with awards from the Kimmel-Harding-Nelson Center for the Arts\, Ox-Bow School of Art\, Marble House Project\, the Saari Residence in Finland\, the Sozopol Fiction Seminars in Bulgaria\, the Jerome Foundation\, the Kone Foundation\, and the U.S. Fulbright Commission\, through which she taught creative writing at the Ivan Franko National University and Chernivtsi National University in Ukraine. Learn more at www.larapalmqvist.com.

SUMMARY:FREE Workshop: Dance That Makes Music
DESCRIPTION:The Northfield Arts Guild hosts the Flying Foot Forum Workshop…\nDance That Makes Music\nIn this hands-on workshop\, students learn to stomp\, clap\, hit\, shout\, sing and slap\, making music while dancing\, by dancing. The class\, led by Joe Chvala\, begins with improvisations and exercises that teach some of the methods the Flying Foot Forum uses to create their dances. By the end of the workshop students have created a group percussive dance piece that is partly choreographed by the company and partly created by each of the members in the workshop. This is the ultimate Flying Foot Forum workshop. Dancers should wear comfortable clothes and hard soled shoes\, if possible. Ages 8 to adult. \nThis is a free workshop but registration is required! Please email Megan Proft at megan@northfieldartsguild.org by Oct. 22 to register. \nAbout Joe Chvala and Flying Foot Forum\nJoe Chvala has spent most of his adult life based in New York City\, Gothenburg\, Sweden\, and since 1990 Minneapolis. During this time he has worked as a director\, choreographer\, writer\, composer\, performer\, and teacher for opera companies\, experimental and nonexperimental theatres\, concert dance venues\, performing arts academies\, and universities. \nHis work\, noted for its breadth and its singular brand of creativity\, is inspired and informed by his unique combination of artistic skills and experiences. The range of his work has earned him such diverse titles as “Fred Astaire on acid” and “the Agnes Deville of tap.” \nAfter moving to the Twin Cities in 1990\, Joe worked with a variety of theater companies while developing his own choreographic dance/theater work for his company of percussive dancers\, the Flying Foot Forum. Since the premiere of their first full concert (May ’93)\, the Flying Foot Forum has been presented in a variety of venues around the world from Paris to New York City\, Jacob’s Pillow to England. \nJoe has received numerous choreographic and interdisciplinary fellowships and grants from such organizations as the National Endowment for the Arts\, The National Dance Project\, the Minnesota State Arts Board\, the Bush Foundation\, The McKnight Foundation\, The Jerome Foundation\, Intermedia Arts Minnesota and the Minnesota Dance Alliance\, as well as Ivey and Sage Awards for dance and theater. flyingfootforum.com

SUMMARY:Lend Me a Tenor Auditions
DESCRIPTION:Audition Announcement!\nThe Northfield Arts Guild and director Marc Robinson are hosting auditions for our winter production of Ken Ludwig’s Lend Me a Tenor!\nAudition dates are Thursday\, October 17th\, from 6-8pm and Saturday\, October 19th\, from 2-4pm\, with potential callbacks on Sunday\, October 20th\, from 4-6pm \nRehearsals will start after the holiday season\, with performances scheduled for February 14-16 and February 21-23\, 2020. \nPerformers of all genders\, abilities\, races\, ethnicities\, and experience levels are encouraged to audition. We look forward to meeting new performers and seeing familiar faces! \nAbout the show:  \nSaunders\, the general manager of the Cleveland Grand Opera Company\, is primed to welcome world-famous Tito Morelli\, known as Il Stupendo\, the greatest tenor of his generation\, to appear for one night only as Pagliacci. The star arrives late and\, through a hilarious series of mishaps\, is given a double dose of tranquilizers and passes out. His pulse is so low that Saunders and his assistant\, Max\, believe he’s dead. In a frantic attempt to salvage the evening\, Saunders persuades Max to get into Morelli’s Pagliacci costume and fool the audience into thinking he’s Il Stupendo. Max succeeds admirably\, but Morelli comes to and gets into his other costume\, ready to perform. Now two Pagliaccis are running around in costume and two women are head over heels\, each thinking she is with Il Stupendo. A sensation on Broadway and in London’s West End\, this madcap\, screwball comedy is guaranteed to leave audiences teary-eyed with laughter. \nCharacters \n\nHenry Saunders – The Cleveland Grand Opera’s general manager. Father to Maggie. A blowhard who often loses his temper at the slightest mishap.\nMax – Saunders’ long-suffering assistant\, who is forced to take Tito’s place.\nMaggie Saunders – Saunders’ daughter\, and Max’s girlfriend; she has great admiration for Tito.\nTito Merelli – The world’s most renowned opera tenor\, and notorious ladies man.\nMaria – Tito’s long-suffering wife\, with an “Italian temper”. Leaves Tito early in the play\, but ultimately returns to him. Loves Tito\, despite his philandering.\nDiana – The opera’s ingenue soprano\, who is “flinging her way” to the top. A seductive woman (and she knows it).\nJulia – Chairwoman of the Cleveland Opera Guild\, who considers herself a “grande dame.”\nThe Bellhop – A comic relief character who has an ongoing feud with Saunders. An obnoxious opera fan\, the Bellhop keeps showing up at the hotel suite at the wrong moment\, trying to get an autograph and a photo of Tito Merelli.\n\nActors will be asked to read in pairs and trios from the script which will be emailed ahead of time when an audition slot is confirmed. Memorization is not required. \nAny men interested in the roles of Max\, Tito Merelli\, or the Bellhop should also prepare a short operatic piece to sing a capella (any song sung operatically – if it’s Hotel California operatically\, that’s great!) \nTo sign-up for a half hour audition slot\, please email Performing Arts Manager Jared Zeigler at jared@northfieldartsguild.org \nQuestions can also be sent there. We look forward to seeing you!

SUMMARY:Reception for Krisi Lillie: Tiny Impressions
DESCRIPTION:Krisi Lillie: Tiny Impressions\nAugust 1 – August 31\, 2019\n \nIn the Guild Members Gallery. This exhibition features oil paintings by Krisi Lillie which explore the landscape of Southern Minnesota. \nArtist Statement:\nTiny Impressions reflects my interpretation of the natural beauty that surrounds us\, providing endless compositions to paint. I am especially intrigued by the moods of the clouds. My primary focus is to portray nature in a whimsical\, semi-abstract fashion as opposed to a more literal depiction. I reach this goal by selecting a creative color palette which I apply with a painting knife to generate movement\, texture\, and a modicum of whimsy. \n\nPlease join us for an Artist Reception on Friday\, August 2\, from 7 – 9 pm.  Refreshments will be served. \n  \n2018-19 Gallery Season sponsored by: \n\n\n\nTiny Impressions supported by:

SUMMARY:"Baggage" Capstone Event
DESCRIPTION:Baggage: Immigrants\n\nby Isabella Rose\nAugust 1-31\, 2019\nIsabella Rose’s solo exhibition is a snapshot of her long-term project featuring mixed media collages inside suitcases interpreting personal interviews. This series features the life stories of three immigrants. She received a SEMAC Emerging Artist grant for this project. \nSEMAC Capstone Event: Friday August 2\, 6:30 pm \n  \nRose’s art explores what makes people who they are\, the parts we hide and the parts we share. The parts of people that seem inconsequential interest her\, the parts that are not perfect or pretty\, but add up to make them whole. Through her art she wants to share these facets of people unprocessed and raw. Her desire is to create unease by revealing the beauty in the imperfect and broken. She hopes this unease leads to reflection\, connection\, and empathy. \nIsabella Rose was born and raised in Northfield\, MN and graduated from the Northfield ALC in 2018. She has worked with numerous Minnesota artists in Northfield and the Twin Cities and currently lives in St Paul. She will be attending the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in the fall. \n  \n\n \n  \n  \n  \nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Southeastern Minnesota Arts Council thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts & cultural heritage fund. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2018-19 Gallery Season sponsored by:

SUMMARY:Capstone Event-Cell Persona: Incarceration's Impact on Black Lives
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for an free Artist Talk (SEMAC Capstone Event) at 5 pm on Friday\, March 22\, where Paul will present on his grant project. Followed by a reception from 6-8 pm; refreshments will be served.\nCell Persona: Incarceration’s Impact on Black Lives\nby Paul Briggs\nMarch 21 – May 11\, 2019\n   \nArtist Statement\nBy addressing the impact of incarceration on black lives\, Cell Persona draws attention to an aspect of society that prevents the world from reaching Utopia and the “restless yearning for a more livable\, just\, and meaningful world.” Indeed\, Cell Persona is about the far psychological and civic reach of incarceration into the lives of persons and their families’ ability to participate in democratic life even after incarceration. The disenfranchisement of blacks due to incarceration is what Michelle Alexander explores in her book\, “The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness.” \nMy cells discover the fact that disproportionately black persons populate our prisons and the cell reaches beyond its interior. Again\, the exploration is two-fold in exploring the reach beyond the actual cell and the reach of incarceration beyond an individual’s prison sentence. The forms dramatize both the reach of incarceration but primarily my own personal\, emotional\, experience of working with families with incarnated loved ones. Under the present laws a literal felon label and a cell mentality becomes part of the life of freed persons and their families perpetually. \nPreceding the Artist Reception on Friday\, March 22\, Briggs will lead a Capstone Event at 5 pm discussing the ideas he explored in his grant project. \n  \n\nThis exhibition presented in conjunction with Claytopia\, National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts (NCECA) Annual Conference\, March 27-30\, 2019\, Minneapolis\, MN. \n\n\n\n2018-19 Gallery Season sponsored by:\n\n\n\nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Southeastern Minnesota Arts Council thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts & cultural heritage fund.
