Worth a thousand words
How often do we take time to reflect on and share the stories behind the many photos we take? At a workshop in conjunction with the Dittmar Gallery’s exhibition “STREET,” share photos, craft collages, swap stories and hear from artist Ann Kogen about the stories behind her artworks.
The event is at 6 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 23, in Dittmar Gallery, Norris University Center, 1999 Campus Drive, Evanston. Register here.
Power of the pen
The Center for Native American and Indigenous Research presents a screening of “Bad Press.” The documentary follows Muscogee journalist Angel Ellis as she works to expose corruption after the Muscogee Nation begins censoring its free press, leading to a fight with far-reaching ramifications.
