Machinal Preview with director, Lesley Ferris
Weekday Brown Bag
|
 Tuesday, February 17th
noon - 1pm
Join us during the lunch hour for a preview of the OSU Theatre Department's winter performance of Machinal, written by female playwright Sophie Treadwell.
The play opened on Broadway in 1928 and is inspired by the true story
of convicted and executed murderess Ruth Snyder. It is truly a tale of
the human condition. The conversation will be led by OSU Theatre
Professor and Machinal director, Lesley Ferris.
This preview is part of our weekday programming offered throughout
the month. Locally hand-roasted coffee is generously provided by Cafe Brioso. Bring your lunch and enjoy.

The Marotta Hour: KBD Sonic Cooperative
Thursday Evening Concert
|
Thursday, February 19th
6:30pm - 8pm
"What strikes me about the KBD Sonic Cooperative,
both in performance and on recording, is how deftly and easily they
subvert many of the supposed factions within improvised music today;
the flavors and nuances of the jazz tradition, 20th Century classical
compositions, past and current electroacoustic music, as well as noise,
all permeate, in one way or another, the collective sound of this
group."
-Toledo Bellows
This series is part of our after-work programing offered Thursday evenings. Before the show stop by Tip Top Kitchen & Cocktails and ask for the Urban Artists' Special: It's very special indeed and its only $3.

| 2009 Arts Scholars Juried Exhibiton

February 4 - April 28
 The 2009 Arts Scholars Juried Exhibition
features work from high-achieving students from all years
of study who share a joint interest in the Arts, including music,
visual arts, design, dance, and theatre. Students major in many areas
across campus, including many non-Arts majors. This exhibition gives
students an opportunity to experience the jurying process and the
hanging and promoting of a professional show. Work in both performative and visual forms illustrates the diversity of
skills and creativity among Arts Scholars. Jurors hail from the
university community as well as the greater Columbus community. This
show has traveled, over the past four years, from campus to the Short
North to downtown. Arts Scholars appreciate the support you provide for
the development and expression of their creative interests.
