SUMMARY:ArtBreak: Simon Pokagon’s Birch Bark Stories
DESCRIPTION:Originally published in 1893 and 1901\, Simon Pokagon’s birch bark stories were printed on thinly peeled and elegantly bound birch bark. In Dr. Blaire Morseau’s 2023 book\, As Sacred to Us: Simon Pokagon’s Birch Bark Stories in Their Contexts\, these rare booklets are reprinted with new essays that set the stories in cultural\, linguistic\, historical\, and even geological context. Experts in Native literary traditions\, history\, Algonquian languages\, the Michigan landscape\, and materials conservation illuminate the thousands of years of Indigenous knowledge that Pokagon elevated in his stories. \nBlaire Morseau is a citizen of the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians\, a beadwork artist\, and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Religious Studies as well as affiliate faculty in American Indian and Indigenous Studies at Michigan State University. Before joining MSU\, she was Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Massachusetts\, Boston\, where she served as Interim Director of Native American and Indigenous Studies. Dr. Morseau also worked as her tribe’s first Archivist\, where she launched the online collections website\, Wiwkwébthëgen. \n\n\n\nAll hybrid events will be livestreamed to our YouTube page and can be found under the “Live” tab. Recordings of select past events are available on YouTube as well. No registration is necessary in order to join in virtually.

SUMMARY:ArtBreak: West Michigan Area Show Artist Highlight
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an artist’s talk and live demonstration with Jeffrey Bohl\, whose sculpture Ellie is featured in the 2024 West Michigan Area Show! \nBohl has been creating bronze sculptures for over 16 years\, exhibiting along the way in numerous regional competitions and in several individual shows. He pours most of his bronzes in his own backyard\, using foundry equipment he has designed and built himself. He creates sculptures by assemblage\, first creating various hollow wax forms\, then looking for relationships between those individual shapes and assembling them into compelling larger forms. Bohl tends toward light-hearted figurative work and has been creating animal forms for the last few years. His work is represented by J. Petter Gallery in Saugatuck. \nBe sure to stop by the West Michigan Area Show before June 24 to cast your vote for the People’s Choice Award! The winner of this award\, sponsored by the Arts Council of Great Kalamazoo\, will be announced during Art Hop on Friday\, July 12\, at 6:00 pm. \n\n\n\nAll hybrid events will be livestreamed to our YouTube page and can be found under the “Live” tab. Recordings of select past events are available on YouTube as well. No registration is necessary in order to join in virtually.
