"taking pART" activism and Art - A First Monday Salon

taking pART: activism & art

With an Opening Presentation by Ilse
Schreiber-Noll

A First Monday Salon

Monday, April 2, 2012  6:00-8:00pm

at The BeanRunner Café

201 S. Division Street

Peekskill, NY 10566

Here is the burning question:  “Does the poet continue writing when the
building is burning?”

Do we continue to craft objects and words when:  the earth is warming?  the poor are suffering?  the children aren’t learning? the cooling pools
are leaking? the wars are raging?

The First Monday Salon in April will be a “real” salon.  We will gather to talk about these questions
and the role of the artist in the Twenty-first Century.  To start us off, Ilse Schreiber-Noll will
give a short presentation about her compelling work which will be on the walls
of the BRC Gallery. Then, the discussion will be open to any/all thoughts and
ideas relating to “taking pART.”
