• Collecting for the College: Prints of New York, Paris, and Italy
  Session and tour led by Eric Denker ’75
  This gallery talk will delve into the works of significant yet often underappreciated artists who have explored the essence of historic cities through the populist art of etching. By curating an extensive collection of exceptional pieces by lesser-known artists, we aim to provide a valuable resource for both students and faculty, offering a rich avenue for discovering the diverse potential of artistic expression. While works by renowned artists such as Winslow Homer, James Whistler, and Honoré Daumier are important to include, it is the substantial collections of artists like August Lepère, Fabio Mauroner, Grace Albee, John Taylor Arms, Ellen Day Hale, and Lida Moser that offer students the opportunity to engage with original works not yet thoroughly explored or documented in the established history of art. This talk will underscore the significance of these lesser-known artists and their contributions to the field of etching, allowing for a deeper appreciation of their role in depicting the essence of historic urban landscapes.
  Preregistration is required. Space is limited (30 people).

A Clown's Guide to Conflict 
Session led by Dwight Dunston ’10
Though it is desired for things to be different, people raised in American culture are generally unskilled in navigating conflict. They lie, manipulate, shrink, overreact, underreact, and often struggle to rebuild connections. As a result, the lack of conflict resolution skills has created an environment where disagreement is often feared, even with those committed to collaborating on an organization’s vision and goals. However, there is hope. Dwight Dunston ’10 believes clowning is key. This one-hour workshop will explore how clowning principles can help individuals navigate moments of conflict and tension with greater ease, skill, and purpose.

Biography:
Dwight Dunston ’10 is a Philadelphia-based facilitator, artist, and educator who has shared his creativity, care, and compassion at schools, community centers, retirement homes, festivals, and stadiums across the U.S. and internationally. He is a Level II certified Kingian Nonviolence trainer, a trained mediator through SEEDS, and has studied extensively with psychologist Dr. Howard Stevenson at the University of Pennsylvania to help individuals heal through storytelling. Dwight has completed over 130 hours of training in Pochinko clowning and currently leads conflict resolution and clown workshops for individuals across the country.
