Media Club- My Octopus Teacher
2020-12-12 19:00 - 20:30
“Perhaps one of the most seemingly alien things to humans, aside from the mysterious depths of space, is the spellbinding enchantments of the ocean–right here on Earth. There is so much to be explored, understood, and observed for the first time. As Craig Foster discovers in this life-changing documentary, there is a great likelihood of encountering something entirely new every time you explore it, the underwater vastness and variety are screaming for scientific discoveries.
Co-directed by James Reed, this meditative documentary stars Craig Foster (also the narrator) who spends every single day for a year boldly free diving in the chilly waters near Cape Town (with no wet-suit or scuba gear) to spend time with an octopus. After quitting her job to work on the documentary, co-director and editor Pippa Ehrlich masters her first feature-length film with a fervent passion to spread their knowledge.

PLYMOUTH AVENUE PROJECT- JULIE LANDSMAN
2020-12-30 08:00 - 17:00
PLYMOUTH AVENUE PROJECT
Artist name: JULIE LANDSMAN
WALK-UP WINDOW SHOW
HOMEWOOD STUDIOS, 2400 PLYMOUTH AVENUE, MINNEAPOLIS
JANUARY 3-30, 2021

Cost: FREE
What will be on gallery in the windows of Homewood Studios for January are sixteen watercolor paintings I did of the aerial view of Plymouth Avenue from Wirth Park to the River. I became fascinated with the patterns and color and objects and streets, the plants and buildings and empty spaces, all from the air. I also added some lines of poetry along the way. It is a rich Avenue, with its new mural, its garden, its barbershop and houses, bus stops, liquor store and day care center. From the air all of this looks like much care was made to keep it green, tree-lined and spacious.

Simple to start endless in its potential; kiln-forming is to glass what conducting is to instruments. In this course students will learn to cut patterns out of sheet glass, make frit, and work with a variety of glass formats by combining them in the kiln to produce a glass ring dish. These are beginner sessions intended to introduce a glass-working approach. You will learn basic techniques specific to that approach with hands-on practice time to get comfortable working with glass and open your eyes to the creative potential of glass!
