The Doris Ulmann Galleries is hosting a reception to begin the final week of Margo Duvall & Katherine Strause: Around and Around Again in the Lower Traylor Gallery in the Rogers-Traylor Art Building. Margo Duvall will be joining us to give an artist talk, and refreshments and snacks will be served. We hope to see you there!

Katherine Strause and Margo Duvall are both nationally recognized and awarded artists and educators from Little Rock, Arkansas. They share an interest, in both their pedagogical and professional art practices, in exploring personal narrative as expressed through ephemera and found imagery. Capturing ordinary moments with wit, sentiment, and tenderness, the artworks on view in Around and Around Again welcome us into conversation about the circularities of human experience that transcend both time and individual circumstance: the moments of full freedom felt by children at play; the liminal space between adolescence and adulthood; the associations of ‘home’ that can be both fond and difficult; and the strength we gain from a supportive sisterhood.

Berea College presents the 50th annual Celebration of Traditional Music, celebrating a half-century of home-made music passed on from person to person in the Appalachian Region and the musicians who play it.

This year, we honor some of our earliest performers and the many committee members who have worked to sustain this jewel of an event over the years.

Events take place across campus at the Loyal Jones Appalachian Center, Gray Auditorium, Woods-Penn Commons, and Cowan Chapel.  CTM is sponsored by the L. Allen Smith Memorial Fund and is planned and presented by the Loyal Jones Appalachian Center, the CTM Committee, the Music Department, and the students of the Folk-Roots Ensemble.

Visiting artist Margaret Setser has work on view in the Upper Traylor Gallery as part of her solo exhibition, Meredith Setser: Immaculate Crude.

On a visual level, the works reference the history of textile craft and Setser’s interests in geology and ecological sciences. Setser’s work will be on view through Friday, October 20, and she’ll be on campus that day to give an artist talk and demo for the closing reception.
