SUMMARY:Stan Olthuis | Interconnected
DESCRIPTION:Interconnected is a solo exhibition of work by Stan Olthuis. Grounding the entire project is Mira la Vida\, a large-scale kinetic sculpture comprised of two eight-foot intersecting discs representing the elements of our world: water\, earth\, fire\, and air. \nStan Olthuis is a Canadian multi-disciplinary visual artist currently based in Nogojiwanong/Peterborough. His work is driven by an ongoing curiosity of our relationship to the world around us. Often reinterpreting persistent symbolisms such as sacred geometry\, Olthuis explores spatial tension and interaction through abstract shapes and audience provocations powered by a colourful palette.

SUMMARY:Quilt-In and Show
DESCRIPTION:After record-breaking attendance in 2023\, the Trent Evening Quilters invite community members with a love of art and quilting back to join them for a sewing bee and quilt show on April 20-21. The quilt-in is an annual show that arises from Curve Lake artist Alice Williams’ residency at Champlain College 25 years ago. \nThis quilt group began in 1999\, so working women could participate\, learn and grow their art of quilting. Previously\, all quilt guilds in the region met during the day. In 2001\, the Quilters started hosting a quilt-in at Champlain College’s Great Hall where visitors can see them working on current projects and ask questions about quilt arts. The event has become a popular attraction for other quilters\, aspiring quilters and people interested in how quilts are made. \n“This event reflects our long-standing relationship with Trent University\,” says Barb Dummitt\, one of the founding members. “We welcome students and adults with an interest in reusing materials to create new pieces of art. Ultimately\, we invite people to come see how we create our artwork so they can make their own.” \nThe celebration runs on Saturday\, April 20 and Sunday\, April 11 from 10 am to 3 pm on both days. Admission is free and birthday cake is served on the Saturday. The Quilters’ Bolt will have a booth at the event to sell colourful supplies. Everyone is welcome to drop in to visit over the two days.

SUMMARY:Staged Reading: Silent Sky
DESCRIPTION:Henrietta Leavitt\, begins work at the Harvard Observatory in the early 1900’s. She is not allowed to touch a telescope or express an original idea. Instead she joins a group of women “computers” charting the stars for a renowned astronomer who calculates projects in “girl hours” and has no time for women’s probing theories. In her free time\, Henrietta attempts to measure the light and distance of stars\, but she must also take the measure of her life on Earth\, trying to balance her dedication to science with family obligations and the possibility of love.

SUMMARY:Matthew Good with special guest Vilvant
DESCRIPTION:Matthew Good is a multi-platinum selling Canadian recording artist\, best known for his signature vocal style\, guitar-driven melodies\, and cinematic lyrics. \nHe began his career as the frontman for the Matthew Good Band\, one of the most successful Canadian alternative rock bands during the 1990s and early 2000s. \nGood’s body of work includes thirteen full-length studio albums\, four EPs\, two compilation LPs\, and one live album. He has been nominated for 21 Juno Awards throughout his career\, with two solo wins for Rock Album of the Year for Vancouver (2009) and Video of the Year for 2003’s “Weapon”\, and two wins for Best Group (Matthew Good Band) and Best Rock Album for Beautiful Midnight (2000). \nHe has also garnered eight Top 10 radio singles in Canada as a solo artist\, including “Weapon\,” “In A World Called Catastrophe\,” “Alert Status Red\,” “Born Losers” and “Last Parade.” \nHis most recent studio album\, Moving Walls (2020)\, was praised as his strongest solo effort\, and a “haunting and cinematic piece of art”. \nThrough his music\, Good’s defiant spirit anchors a vulnerable\, unapologetic outlook on life while offering glimpses of hope and reminding us there is beauty in the world. Never one to bite his tongue\, his hyper-awareness of the world around him\, including political\, socio-economic\, and mental health issues\, has earned him accolades for his thoughtful and deliberate approach.
