Chartwells, the food service provider at UE, is co-sponsoring the event and providing chili.

For $10, customers can buy a one-of-a-kind ceramic bowl and fill it will chili. Paper containers will be available for those who prefer not to put chili in their newly purchased bowls. Larger bowls from $15-$50 will also be for sale. Some more artistic larger bowls will be sold at a silent auction as well ranging in price from $60-$100.

The Clay Club officers chose this organization for their work with education and feeding the less fortunate in the Evansville Community. The rest of the proceeds will be used by the Clay Club to attend conferences, visit museums and galleries, and host visiting artists.

THE MONTHLY SCOOP ON THE ARTS COMMUNITIES

Catalysts for Change: REN ART WLK

By Bobbi Jo Sammons, President, Main Street Rensselaer

Our Main Street Rensselaer, Inc. (MSR) Summer of 2019 project was the creation of an art mural along the riverfront wall facing Potawatomi Park and phase one of the REN ART WLK in downtown Rensselaer.

We wanted the mural to be an added attraction to the area offering an additional point of interest thereby integrating the arts more fully and fostering inspiration in our community. Our hope was that the art mural would reflect a freshness of vision and design while bringing a unique, dynamic energy to our community. The addition of the rest of the murals was something beyond our wildest dreams for our community.

Such improvements in the heart of our community would promote community pride, attract community members/visitors from all over the state to the downtown area, and improve the overall “walkable community” theme that we have been promoting with our recent projects. The art murals are consistent with the proposed improvements included in the Parks for People Campaign and the proposed City of Rensselaer Downtown Revitalization Plan.

Public Art Sessions at the Indiana Arts Homecoming

October 24-25, 2019, Downtown Indianapolis

1. Explore the importance of arts-based infrastructure
Led by three artists and a curator from Big Car Collaborative (three of whom offer perspective from growing up in small-city or rural Indiana and the fourth from rural Mexico), this session illuminates how to build community cohesion work in a challenged area.

2. Get the youth in your community engaged with preservation
Learn about examples of creative placemaking projects that sit at the intersection of arts and historic preservation and that include networking with non-traditional preservation collaborators such as local graffiti artists and muralists.

3. Create accessible public art with important design standards in mind
Before any public art project begins, artists and designers must take certain steps during the planning and design process to ensure a project is accessible to all. Learn about case studies and best practices for accessible public art in communities across Indiana and across the country.

4. Increase equity in through a public art program
Access to public art projects may be inadvertently cut off for some artists unless equity is kept at the forefront. This participatory workshop will guide participants through ideas to create equity in public art.

“Right Jab And Middle Jab And Left Jab” OCTOBER 13, 2019

13
“Right Jab And Middle Jab And Left Jab” was created because we have a couple of commenters that post on a daily basis either in our “IS IT TRUE” or “Readers Forum” columns concerning National or International issues.
The majority of our “IS IT TRUE” columns are about local or state issues, so we have decided to give our more opinionated readers exclusive access to our newly created “LEFT JAB and Middle Jab and RIGHT JAB”  column. They now have this post to exclusively discuss national or world issues that they feel passionate about.
We shall be posting the “LEFT JAB” AND “MIDDLE JAB” AND “RIGHT JAB” several times a week.  Oh, “LEFT JAB” is a liberal view, “MIDDLE JAB” is the libertarian view and the “RIGHT JAB is representative of the more conservative views. Also, any reader who would like to react to the written comments in this column is free to do so.

Today’s “Readers Poll’ question is:  If the election was held today in the City Council 1st Ward who would you vote for?

ADOPT A PET

Zero is a 6-month-old male rabbit named after the Nightmare Before Christmas! He’s a curious little bun who loves exploring. He would make a great first-time bunny for any family who may not have had a rabbit before. Remember, bunnies live for 10-12 years and need to have ample time hopping around the house every day instead of just living in a cage! Zero’s adoption fee is $50 and includes his neuter & microchip. Contact Vanderburgh Humane at (812) 426-2563 for adoption details!

Vehicle Crash Claims Life of Indiana State Trooper

0

(Tippecanoe County, IN)- The Indiana State Police is mourning the loss of one of its own after a single vehicle crash late last night on Old State Road 25 near Stair Road. The crash claimed the life of Trooper Peter R. Stephan, 27, Lafayette, IN, who served with the Indiana State Police Department for four years.

The preliminary investigation by Indiana State Police Sergeant Rick Brown indicates at approximately 10:25 p.m., Trooper Stephan was traveling northbound on Old State Road 25, south of Stair Road, when his 2018 Dodge Charger police car entered a curve. For an undetermined reason, the Dodge left the east side of the roadway, rolled at least one time and struck a utility pole.  Trooper Stephan was going to help another trooper who had called for assistance in Americus prior to the crash.

As a result of the crash, Trooper Stephan suffered fatal injuries, and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Trooper Stephan is survived by his wife and six month-old daughter.  Family notifications have been made.

“This is a tremendously sad day for the entire Indiana State Police family.  We will band together as we always do in support of Trooper Stephan’s family, friends and co-workers”, said Indiana State Police Superintendent Douglas G. Carter.

The Indiana State Police was assisted at the scene by the Tippecanoe County Sheriff Department, White County Sheriff Department, Tippecanoe County EMS, Lafayette Fire Department, Buck Creek Fire Department, Tipmont REMC and troopers from neighboring Indiana State Police Districts.

No additional information is available for release at this time.

USI stunned in fall seconds, 2-1

0

 University of Southern Indiana Men’s Soccer was stunned in the final seconds at William Jewell College, 2-1, Friday evening in Liberty, Missouri. The Eagles see their record go to 3-5-2 overall and 3-4-1 in the GLVC, while William Jewell goes to 1-8-1, 1-6-1 GLVC.

USI got on top early in the match when senior forward Eric Ramirez (Vincennes, Indiana) scored at 15:10. Ramirez converted on a USI corner kick for his second goal of the season off assists by sophomore defender Colten Walsh (St. Louis, Missouri) and sophomore midfielder Eli Quivey (Fishers, Indiana). The 1-0 lead would stand up through the intermission.

The second half would see both teams battle back and forth across the field until William Jewell rallied to knot the game at 1-1 with a tally at 61:31. The Eagles had a chance to take the lead at 81:50 when freshman defender Travis Sides (Evansville, Indiana) hit the crossbar, but it was Cardinals of William Jewell knocking in a shot off the crossbar with 17 seconds to play for the winner at 89:43.

USI will look to get back on track and complete its longest road trip of the year Sunday when it makes a stopover at Rockhurst University in Kansas City, Missouri for a 2:30 p.m. match-up. Rockhurst saw its record go to 4-5-1, 4-4-0 GLVC, after falling to McKendree University, 3-0, at home this evening.

Rockhurst has had the upper hand with the Eagles all-time, leading, 21-2-3. USI broke a eight-match winless streak to Rockhurst, 2-1, during the 2018 regular season match at home on goals by Ramirez and senior midfielder Sean Rickey (Columbia, Illinois). The Hawks, however, bounced back to defeat the Eagles in the GLVC Tournament, 3-1, at Strassweg Field.
