SUMMARY:NIGHT SHIFT - Paintings by Fred Schuback
DESCRIPTION:NIGHT SHIFT – Paintings by Fred Schuback\nSeptember 7-26\, 2024\nOpening Reception: September 7\, 2024 2-4PM \nJoin us at Bethany Arts Community for NIGHT SHIFT\, an exhibit showcasing the evocative paintings of the late Fred Schuback. This exhibition offers a glimpse into Schuback’s unique artistic vision\, featuring works that capture his exploration of New York City’s underbelly. \nA preview of Fred Schuback’s work is available at www.fredschuback.com. \nAbout Fred Schuback \nIn order to support himself\, Frederick Schuback drove a yellow cab in New York City in the 1970’s and ‘80’s. He chose the night shift\, which gave him the freedom to paint during the mornings when the light was best in his Alphabet City studio. He rendered the people and places he had seen during the night with a vivid palette that may have been influenced by his childhood in Mexico. \nWhen Schuback was active\, New York was considered the epicenter of the art world. The city’s explosive creative energy and vast wealth had enabled unconventional artists like Andy Warhol\, Jean-Michel Basquiat\, Keith Haring and others to reach unprecedented levels of fame and glory. \nAs an artist\, Schuback was beginning to achieve recognition in the late 1980’s. He had earned a BFA from Pratt Institute and had had several critically acclaimed shows\, including a one-man exhibit at the Federal Courthouse in lower Manhattan. But he struggled with poor mental health and\, in 1992 at the age of 42\, he lost that battle. \nHis legacy lives on thanks to Pratt Institute’s Fred Schuback Scholarship\, which was established by the Schuback family\, and each year awards a monetary prize to a promising fine art student. A portion of the proceeds of this exhibit will go toward that scholarship. \nExhibit Dates: September 7-26\, 2024 \nGallery Hours (Starting September 9):\nMon-Fri: 10AM-4PM\nSaturday\, September 14 & 21 10AM-4PM \nOpening Reception: Saturday\, September 7\, 2024 2-4PM

SUMMARY:Everyone Has a Story to Tell! Storytelling Workshop with BAC Artist-in-Residence Kona Morris
DESCRIPTION:Everyone Has a Story to Tell! Storytelling Workshop\nwith BAC Artist-in-Residence Kona Morris\nDate & Time: Thursday\, September 26\, 7 – 8:30PM \nJoin writer and storyteller Kona Morris (The Moth\, RISK!) for a crafting workshop to generate story ideas and learn how to structure them for optimal audience engagement. Bring a notebook and your most vivid memories!   \nMore About The Workshop\nStorytelling is both unique and universal. Our stories are what make us stand out as individuals\, but also what allows us to relate and have empathy for one another. The desire to share our stories is in our DNA. For as long as our ancestors could speak\, they were telling each other stories—to entertain\, to share learned wisdoms\, and to process intense experiences. It is a medium like no other because it encompasses every person on the planet\, no matter their background\, field of study\, or walk of life.  \nIn this 90-minute workshop\, we will start with a “Story Mining” exercise that provides prompts to help you remember your most important stories. Then we will cover storytelling techniques and tools for structuring successful stories. We will talk about the importance of a strong ending\, and how to tailor it for your specific audience and purpose. You will leave this workshop with a list of your best stories—and with the inspiration and confidence to share them!   \nAbout Kona\nKona Morris is a writer\, storyteller\, and comedian. She has won The Moth StorySLAM in Los Angeles\, and she’s been featured on national podcasts such as RISK!\, Monkey Tooth\, and It’s Funny Now. Kona starred in Denver’s Live Drunk History Comedy Troupe\, and her short stories and articles have appeared in a variety of publications.  \nTo learn more about Kona: https://konamorris.com/  \nThis event is a Fall Multidisciplinary Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC\, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program. Community Programs are a unique opportunity for both artists-in-residence and our local community to gather\, engage\, and be in conversation with one another through art. Community Programs are free engagements open to the public and/or in collaboration with a local community partner

SUMMARY:Art\, Intuition & Intention: Conversation and Co-Creation with BAC Artist-in-Residence Ziedah Diata
DESCRIPTION:Art\, Intuition & Intention: Conversation and Co-Creation\nwith BAC Artist-in-Residence Ziedah Diata\nDate & Time: Saturday\, September 28\, 2024 2 – 4PM \n“Art\, Intuition & Intention: Conversation and Co-Creation with Artist\, Ziedah Diata” is an artist talk and guided art-making experience. Ziedah will share her views on “participatory art” as a social connector and as an activator-amplifier of the inner voice. She will guide participants through movement\, breath and visualization exercises for waking up and sustaining natural\, accessible intuition. Participants will create a personal\, interactive art piece for working with intuition and intention-setting at home.   \nThis experience is designed and intended for cross-generational connection and creation. Youth\, elders and everyone in between are welcome. Recommended for participants age 8 and up.   \nAbout Ziedah\nZiedah Diata is a Brooklyn\, New York-based artist\, facilitator\, and attorney. Since 2011\, Ziedah has created participatory art experiences independently and in collaboration with cultural organizers\, teachers\, poets\, healers and playwrights. Her work is inspired\, in part\, by the recurring themes that emerged in testimony during her 15 year career as an administrative law judge: harm\, repair\, empathy and transformation. In 2023\, Ziedah left her role as Chief Administrative Law Judge for the New York State Department of State. She now explores these same themes through facilitated art-making and storytelling experiences. In 2023\, Ziedah launched Bed-Stuy Drawn Together\, an intergenerational art-making and story-sharing project\, in collaboration with Stoop Stories and the Annual Stoops Art Crawl. Ziedah is a 2024 Laundromat Project Create Change Fellow. In addition to creating communal experiences\, she also designs personal participatory art pieces for reflection\, intention-setting and play. \nThis event is a Fall Multidisciplinary Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC\, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program. Community Programs are a unique opportunity for both artists-in-residence and our local community to gather\, engage\, and be in conversation with one another through art.
