 | Works by Them, Words by Them (Multi-Day Event)
All Day
*WU Campus - Art Building
Part of Jordis Miller's Carson Grant project, this art display features both visual and written works from patients at the Oregon State Hospital in Salem. This project focuses on understanding art done by the mentally ill, known in the art world as Art Brut, Raw Art or Outsider Art. Specifically this project examines why the artist should be elevated in understanding this genre of art. By exhibiting art from the hospital on Willamette's campus, this project aims to bridge the gap between the two communities. |

*WU Campus - Smith Auditorium
Get caught up in this highly energetic tale of deceptions and counter-deceptions. The skirt chasing and bullying run rampant in the palace of Count Almaviva. Set in Spain, this continuation of the plot of “The Barber of Seville” focuses on the debauchery that unfolds during a single “day of madness” in this grand folly of aristocratic courtship.
An opera by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Director: Allison Swensen-Mitchell
Co-produced with the Willamette University Department of Music |
