ArtsinStark to Award $7,500 for Giant TV Image

August 21, 2017   Canton, News

ArtsinStark in Canton, OH invites any artist over 18 years of age living in the state of Ohio to submit an image to fit inside the giant television set being created for “Monday Night Football, 1970” — the sixth moment of The ELEVEN public art series.  ArtsinStark will award $5,000 to the winning artist, and $500 to each of five runners up.  All entries must be submitted by end of day September 18 at CAFÉ www.CallForEntry.org. Winners will be announced on October 2, 2017.  The area inside the TV screen is approximately 30’ high by 48’ wide.  Images submitted can be drawings, paintings, or digitally-created art.  The sponsors of “Monday Night Football” are: The Deuble Foundation, The Hoover Foundation, Stark Community Foundation, and The Timken Foundation.  For more information on The ELEVEN public art project, please go to www.ArtsinStark.com/84.

Canton, OH is the birthplace of the NFL.  The ELEVEN is a public art project of ArtsinStark and The Pro Football Hall of Fame celebrating the greatest moments in professional football history.  Five of the ELEVEN moments have been completed to date (three sculptures, one banner mural, and one painted mural).

“Monday Night Football” recognizes the phenomenal success of NFL games telecasted during prime time on a weeknight which began on September 21, 1970, when the Cleveland Browns faced the New York Jets on ABC-TV’s Monday Night Football debut.  Here is an excerpt from the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s 150 Anniversary Book: Sundays have long been synonymous with NFL football. But in 1970, a new weekly tradition that included one featured game on Monday night forever changed the landscape of the game. Few could imagine the enduring impact of ABC’s telecast of the NFL during prime time on a weeknight. Doubters were prevalent when the Cleveland Browns faced the New York Jets in the Monday Night Football debut on September 21, 1970. Yet the tradition became a nationwide phenomenon that captured huge ratings and in turn was a major reason for the NFL’s dramatic rise in popularity in the years that followed.

The judging criteria are: a) Does the design truly capture the moment?  b) Is the art of the highest possibility quality? and c) Is the concept so amazing that even visitors who don’t love football will still want to come see it?  Artists new to CAFÉ www.CallForEntry.org should reach out to Alaska Thompson, Project Coordinator at (330) 546-3098 or artbyalaska@gmail.com with questions.  Applying is a two-step process: 1) first you create a profile on CAFÉ https://youtu.be/2XOoFON-HMw , and 2) then you use your profile to apply for this specific call: Monday Night Football Design Competition ($7,500 in Prizes)

Massillon Museum to Present “Women on the Move: Fashions from The Great War Era”

August 18, 2017   Massillon, News
The Massillon Museum will host “Women on the Move: Fashions from The Great War Era”—a luncheon, fashion display, and program—on Wednesday, September 20, at noon, at the MAPS Air Museum. 
 
The $35 ticket includes a generous lunch, admission to the MAPS Air Museum, and the program.  The event is a Massillon Museum Capital Campaign fundraiser for the expansion of the Museum to enhance programming, preservation, and exhibitions for the community. Tickets may be purchased atmassillonmuseum.org or by visiting the Museum at 121 Lincoln Way East in downtown Massillon.
 
Laura Loew, an expert in costumes of a century past, will present an entertaining program about women’s clothing of the World War I era, including how the war affected the restrictive attire typically worn by American women. Women on the homefront contributed to the war effort by rationing, selling bonds, knitting wool socks for men in the trenches, doing Red Cross work, working in factories, ferrying planes to military bases, and many other activities that affected the clothing they wore. Loew will display clothing from the early 1900s.
 
The MAPS Air Museum is located at 2260 International Parkway in Green near the Akron Canton Airport—turn off Ohio Route 241 when at the historic airplane near the road.
  
The event accents the Museum’s exhibition, Stark County in the Great War, which will be on view through November 12.  It includes uniforms, letters, military papers, propaganda posters, shrapnel, music, gas masks, and other war-related gear. An original, 30-minute documentary film also plays on loop in the second-floor gallery.  A visit to the Massillon Museum is always free.
 
Sue Reid and Mary Ann Poling are co-chairing “Women on the Move” as part of the Capital Campaign special fundraising events team.  Jean Mummertz, Debbie and Denny Bachtel, Trisha Merchant, Jeannie John, Joi Letcavits, Kathy Malinowski, Margy Vogt, and Sue Kelewae serve on the committee.
  
“Women on the Move” is one of many fundraising efforts that are part of the Capital Campaign. Contributions may be sent to the Museum at 121 Lincoln Way East, Massillon 44646. The Museum has acquired all properties bounded by Lincoln Way, City Hall Street, Diamond Court, and Park Row. Plans for the upcoming expansion will benefit the community with additional education and exhibition space, an auditorium/meeting space, and a home for the Paul E. Brown Museum.

KENT STATE UNIVERSITY AT STARK ANNOUNCES 2017-18 THEATRE SEASON

August 4, 2017   News, North Canton
Three groundbreaking productions featured this academic year
 
A man spontaneously transitions into a woman, Jesus Christ makes an appearance on the Home Shopping Network and the aftermath of the Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy will be examined this theatre season at Kent State University at Stark.
 
In keeping with its tradition of staging contemporary and thought-provoking plays year after year, Kent State Stark Theatre ups the ante with three cutting-edge productions for the 2017-18 season:
 
Consider the Oyster
By David MacGregor
 
Auditions: Sept. 6 & 7 at 6 p.m. in the Fine Arts Theatre.
Performances: Nov. 10, 11, 17 & 18 at 7:30 p.m.; Nov. 12 & 19 (American Sign Language performance) at 2 p.m.
Tickets: $10 adults; $7 students under 17 and senior citizens; Kent State students free with current ID.
Tickets will be available online and at the Fine Arts Theatre Box Office beginning October 30.
 
After watching his favorite team win the Super Bowl, Gene spontaneously proposes to his longtime girlfriend Marisa, and in the midst of his excitement, breaks his leg. The oyster shell the doctor leaves in Gene’s leg to aid in healing sets off a chain reaction of odd feminine changes in Gene’s physicality, hormones and emotions. Just as an oyster changes from male to female over the course of its life, Gene is changing, too. He begins to question his feelings for his new fiancée, and his relationships with friends and family become awkward and strange. Watch as gender identity and humor explode on stage in comical, yet thought-provoking, ways.
 
 
Virtual Devotion
By Eric Coble
 
Auditions: November 28 & 29 at 6 p.m. in the Fine Arts Theatre.
Performances: Feb. 23 & 24; March 2 & 3 at 7:30 p.m.; Feb. 25 & March 4 (American Sign Language performance) at 2 p.m.
Tickets: $10 adults; $7 students under 17 and senior citizens; Kent State students free with current ID.
Tickets will be available online and at the Fine Arts Theatre Box Office beginning February 12.
 
It’s the end of the world as we know it; pollution, terrorism and disease have taken over humanity. Pete, Anne and Ruth attempt to sell their faith to nonbelievers in various, and sometimes violent, ways, as a last-ditch effort to save souls, including their own. Through a series of ironic, laughable and most unfortunate events, all of the characters, including the returned Son of God, Jesus Christ, find one another on the Home Shopping Network selling religious artifacts. But now that they are finally together, is it too late to stop the ensuing Armageddon?
 
 
26 Pebbles
By Eric Ulloa
 
Auditions: January 30 & 31 at 6 p.m. in the Fine Arts Theatre.
Performances: April 13, 14, 20 & 21 at 7:30 p.m.; April 15 & 22 (American Sign Language performance) at 2 p.m.
Tickets: $10 adults; $7 students under 17 and senior citizens; Kent State students free with current ID.
Tickets will be available online and at the Fine Arts Theatre Box Office beginning April 2.
 
What happened to the people of Newtown, Conn., after the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre? Months after the attack, Eric Ulloa held intimate interviews with members of the Newtown community, and created a play that nods to Thornton Wilder’s Our Town. This docudrama is a weave of verbatim interview excerpts from many people of Newtown as they recount the ripples that were made in the aftermath of unthinkable tragedy, and the resulting push forward towards healing in their community.
 
************
 
Directing Kent State Stark’s theatre productions is Brian Newberg, associate professor of theatre and theatre director with scenic and lighting design by Louis Williams, sound design by Ron Jarvis and costume design by Stephen Ostertag.
 
All upcoming productions will be performed at the Kent State Stark Fine Arts Theatre, 6000 Frank Avenue NW in Jackson Township.
