Opioid Wakes: For Peter Bruun and Dina Fiasconaro the National Epidemic Hits Close to Home
Peter Bruun and Dina Fiasconaro’s exhibition titled Opioid Wakes offers opportunities to explore and connect with humanistic threads around drug use and overdose at profound personal and universal levels. There are so many rich and meaningful layers of complexity in this exhibit, its inspiration, and its significance, both for those directly impacted and more universally for the world at large, that it is hard to know where to begin to write about it.

The Internet is Exploding: 10 Must-Read Articles This Week 9/17/23 🔥

August Station North Art Walk: Photos
One of the best aspects of city life is to never have to ride in a car, to be able to walk to work, shopping, and for recreation. In many cities, it has become common to host walkable, collaborative cultural events where a variety of different venues choose to open their doors and host simultaneous receptions and performances. Each summer, Baltimore’s Station North Arts District organizes a monthly art walk to showcase a variety of different art galleries, studios, retail, and food, all located within reasonable walking distance of one another. They print out free maps, available at each participating location for self-guided tours, and offer modest funding to cover hospitality.
Existence as Protest: Making Space for Trans Artists at Rhizome DC
A lot of the submissions I got came with explanations of why they were submitting their work, and what made it valid as ‘trans art’. But really, I didn’t need anyone to defend themselves: trans people are already having to defend their very existence every day… there is no universal ‘transgender experience’

The Problem is Convention: A Doll’s House at Everyman Theater
Everyman has been kind to Henrik Ibsen—or Ibsen has been kind to Everyman. This writer remembers with pleasure Deborah Hazlett’s just-over-the-the hill Hedda Gabler in 2003 and the company’s lavish—and harrowing—production of Ghosts in 2015. This season, Everyman leads off with an innovative staging of...
