Jul 2 - Dec 7 Visual Weimar, 1919-1933 |
This exhibit brings together select paintings, drawings, and etchings by some of Weimar Germany's most prominent artists, including Otto Dix, George Grosz, and Käthe Kollwitz. The works confront the viewer with representations of this highly visual culture in Germany's first democracy and the productive and sometimes problematic relationship between criticizing and participating in a culture that could not prevent its people from falling for Hitler's Germany under the Swastika. |

Artist Greg Haberny describes his own style as "completely loose and out of control." He uses an array of materials, refusing to conform to a single medium. Melted crayons and Band-Aids add a vital texture to his work, while appropriated images of pop culture, like the iconic Mickey Mouse, create a tone of cultural and political critique. |

Sep 7 Vermonters for Vermonters |
Vermonters for Vermonters will be hosting a benefit concert at the Vermont State Fairgrounds Grandstand in Rutland, from 2PM-8PM. There will be live music by Joey Leone, Bow Thayer, Jeremy Graham, Ashley Buchart, Myk Sno, Tony Lee Thomas, as well as many speakers from Governor Peter Shumlin to many inspiring people affected by Vermont’s opiate addiction epidemic.
Vermonters for Vermonters is a volunteer effort of citizens committed to raising funds and awareness to help combat the negative effect drugs have had in Vermont. The group started this organization in response to the growing epidemic of drug abuse in Vermont, which is affecting citizens across the state in increasing and alarming numbers. The Vermonters for Vermonters volunteers have decided it is time to take action against this epidemic, and have organized this benefit concert to help raise awareness and get other Vermonters involved in the cause.
Proceeds from the event will benefit three organizations that are directly involved in combating this epidemic and providing assistance to Vermonters and their families suffering from drug abuse and addiction: Project Vision, VT Recovery Network, and Dismas House.

Sep 12 - Dec 7 Picturing Enlightenment: Tibetan Tangkas from the Mead Art Museum |
This exhibition highlights 18 centuries-old scroll paintings of Buddhist figures from the collection of Amherst College's Mead Art Museum. So fragile that they have remained largely inaccessible to scholars and museum visitors for nearly six decades, these tangkas, primarily from Tibet, have recently been gently cleaned, stabilized, and repaired. Vibrantly colored, intricately patterned, and ranging in height from two to nine feet, each work rewards close study. |

Sep 27 In the House |
A 16-year-old boy becomes involved with the family of a fellow student and writes about it in essays for his French teacher. Faced with this gifted but unusual pupil, the teacher rediscovers enthusiasm for his work, but the boy's intrusion leads him into a treacherous no-man's land between the literary and the literal. "The view it affords is at once so silvery-clear and so misted with longing and confusion that, unexpectedly, it draws us close to heartache"-Anthony Lane, The New Yorker.
