SUMMARY:NAA presents Garland of Hours\, Gage Opdenbrouw\, oil
DESCRIPTION:“For many years now\, I have found old family photos\, from my family\, as well as found photos\, to be poignant and moving source material for a body of paintings I call ‘Garland of Hours’” says Gage Opdenbrouw. “The paintings are often torn apart and rebuilt\, destroyed\, and reconstructed again and again\, in the course\, of their development—a process analogous to both the passing of time and our experience of memory.” \nUltimately the paintings are intended as meditations on themes like time\, remembrance\, forgetting\, love\, loss\, impermanence\, attachment\, and letting go—a reflection on mortality and the passing of days\, distilled into paint. \nThis demo will provide an overview of the work and an opportunity to look over the artist’s shoulder as he works on a canvas or two from this body of work. \nAbout Gage Opdenbrouw\nBorn and raised in Northern California\, Gage Opdenbrouw is an award-winning painter\, who\, until recent times\, traveled frequently to paint and teach.  He now teaches online courses at Washington Studio School\, in Washington DC\, and Winslow Art Center\, near Seattle. \nHe has an upcoming show at Sue Greenwood Gallery in Laguna Beach\, with Ryan Reynolds and Sandy Ostrau\, and another with San Francisco painter and longtime friend Heidi McDowell\, at SHOH Gallery in Berkeley in this fall.  Other recent exhibitions include Black Spring\, at Horse and Plow Taproom in Sonoma County\, California\,  a solo show at B Sakata Garo Gallery in Sacramento\,  Midsummer Sun in an Empty Room at SHOH Gallery in Berkeley\, and Silent Music at Washington Studio School. \nHis work was included in John Seed’s recent book Disrupted Realism. Opdenbrouw was the recipient of the Avigdor Arikha Fellowship for a residency in Civita Castellana Italy with the Jerusalem Studio School. \nZoom Details: \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/89812069236?pwd=QjBnclFRbWw1KzVwQ2dMWEVxbTVtZz09\nNewton AA is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. \nTopic: Garland of Hours\, Gage Opdenbrouw\, oil\nTime: Oct 13\, 2022 07:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada) \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/89812069236?pwd=QjBnclFRbWw1KzVwQ2dMWEVxbTVtZz09 \nMeeting ID: 898 1206 9236\nPasscode: 658853\nOne tap mobile\n+16469313860\,\,89812069236#\,\,\,\,*658853# US\n+13017158592\,\,89812069236#\,\,\,\,*658853# US (Washington DC) \nMeeting ID: 898 1206 9236\nPasscode: 658853\nFind your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/knJuA2baF

SUMMARY:Historic Newton presents: Half American - The Epic Story of Black Americans Fighting WWII
DESCRIPTION:For Black Americans World War II was about not only America’s standing in the world but also about how much actual freedom would exist in the United States. Black troops fought bravely in combat and they formed the backbone of the U.S. military’s supply effort\, all while fighting in a segregated military. Black veterans returned from the war and kept fighting white supremacy at home. Drawing on his upcoming book\, historian Matthew Delmont explains how World War II raised questions regarding race and democracy that remain unanswered more than seventy years later. This is an inspiring history of bravery and patriotism in the face of unfathomable racism. This event is part of the Newton History Series co-sponsored by Historic Newton and the Newton Free Library. Register here for this Zoom talk.

SUMMARY:Scandinavian Cultural Center presents: Book Talk - "For the Love of Cod" with Eric Dregni
DESCRIPTION:A journey to find Norway’s supposed bliss makes for a comic travelogue that asks\, seriously\, what makes Norwegians so damn happy—and does it translate? \nNorway is usually near or at the top of the World Happiness Report. But is it really one of the happiest countries on Earth? Eric Dregni had his doubts. Years ago he and his wife had lived in this country his great-great-grandfather once fled. When their son Eilif was born there\, the Norwegian government paid for the birth\, gave them $5\,000\, and deposited $500 into their bank account every month\, but surely happiness was more than a generous health care system. What about all those grim months without sun? When Eilif turned fifteen\, father and son decided to go back together and investigate. For the Love of Cod is their droll report on the state of purported Norwegian bliss. \nSaturday\, December 4th | 1pm  | FREE with registration | register here \nABOUT ERIC: Eric Dregni is an associate professor of English and Journalism at Concordia University in Saint Paul\, Minnesota\, where he teaches writing. He has written or cowritten travel memoirs and essays about Minnesota\, Norway\, and Italy\, as well as guidebooks and books on popular culture in the American Midwest.
