SPECIAL EVENT
Creative Context
Help kick off this new monthly party in style! l’etoile magazine (one of my side projects) and The Guthrie team up to bring you Creative
hosted by some of the most influential local women in arts and
media. Every 2nd Thursday of the month enjoy happy hour drink specials,
killer tunes by Jonathan Ackerman and DJ Bach, and an opportunity to
pick the brains of some pretty amazing ladies – or just sip vino
with your pals while enjoying the view. This month’s host is Emma Berg,
Director of mplsart.com and head curator for the Gallery at Fox Tax.
You do not need to see a play to attend the party, but I’d highly encourage it – you can see The Government Inspector for a mere $20 at 7:30pm tonight by calling the Guthrie’s box office at 612.377.2224 and quoting the price code "AH".
10pm-Midnight, The Guthrie’s Target Lounge (2nd Floor), 818 2nd Ave. S, Minneapolis, Free
ART
Ars Insurgo & Three Way
Rosalux Gallery does us one better with this evening’s double-header art opening! Debuting in the main galleries, Rosalux members Eddie
A journey of humor and nostalgia for the viewer, Hamilton and Young
investigate everything from debate to youthful memories with their
whimsical paintings and multimedia constructions. Don’t forget to pop
in to Rosalux’s new "Pocket Gallery" which is opening Three Way, an
eclectic array of work by up and coming artists (and exiting interns)
Mike Carney, Lauren Chezik, and Sarah Reuter. Want to make it a date?
I’d definitely recommend checking out Spill the Wine a cute and classy little wine
joint and restaurant about half a block from the Gallery.
7-11pm, Rosalux Gallery, 1011 Washington Avenue, Downtown Minneapolis, Free
FILM
4 Sheets to the Wind & Sikumi (On the Ice)
Lucky Minneapolis! Not only do we have one of the top art museums in the country, but they let everyone in for free on Thursdays ! Stop into the Bazinet Lobby before 7:30 to snap up your free tix to an evening
What makes these films special you ask? Both films have been heralded
for their artistry with prestigious awards from the Sundance Film
Festival and both films are written and directed by Native American filmmakers. The feature length Four Sheets to the Wind,
directed by Sterlin Harjo, weaves the tale of a young man in search of
his identity on the reservation and beyond, with subtly humorous undertones
and thoughtful cinematography. Sikumi (On the Ice), a short film directed by Andrew Okpeaha MacLean. The first film ever to be made in the Iñupiaq language, Sikumi tells the story of an Inuit hunter who inadvertently witnesses a murder.
7:30pm, Walker Art Center Cinema, 1750 Hennepin Avenue, Minneapolis, Free
