DESCRIPTION:<span style="color: #000000;">Join us for Final Friday as we celebrate our current summer shows and the opening of the Ceramics Artist-In-Residence's solo exhibition! Or come check out some films during Free State Festival! </span><span style="color: #000000;">Grab a drink and have a good time!</span> <a class="btn-secondary" href="https://lawrenceartscenter.org/event/jeff-eaton-hot-dogs-for-breakfast/"><b>Jeff Eaton | Hot Dogs for Breakfast</b></a> <span style="color: #000000;">Borrowing from vintage advertising, carnival aesthetic, and car/tattoo culture, Jeff Eaton, AKA Pride of Gumbo, employs traditional sign painting techniques to make bold and colorful works, while keeping it lighthearted and off-beat. Like the hot dog, this exhibition is a combination of parts and pieces that might be overlooked or discarded on their own, but when refined and exquisitely combined into the sweet casing, the viewer’s experience is nothing short of a fulfilling delight. Working primarily with enamel, the results are straightforward and crisp graphics. With the objective of simply creating something enjoyable to view, <em>Hot Dogs for Breakfast</em> takes the viewer on a tawdry and delectable journey into the Pride of Gumbo. </span> <a class="btn-secondary" href="https://lawrenceartscenter.org/event/gabriel-john-poucher-permeable-boundariless/"><b>Gabriel John Poucher | Ceramics Resident | Permeable & Boundariless</b></a> <span style="color: #000000;">In 2020, the total mass of all human-made objects outweighed the total mass of all life on Earth. What do we consider “natural” in a world with more synthetic material than organic life? <em>Permeable & Boundariless</em> looks through the lens of queer ecology and ceramic materiality to examine geology, microbiology, and the definition of “nature” in the Anthropocene.</span> <span style="color: #000000;"><a class="btn-secondary" style="color: #000000;" href="https://lawrenceartscenter.org/event/insight-art-talk-gabriel-john-poucher/"><b>INSIGHT Art Talk | July 10, 7 pm </b></a></span> <a class="btn-secondary" href="https://lawrenceartscenter.org/event/vesna-jovanovic-topsy-turvy/"><b>Vesna Jovanovic | Topsy-Turvy</b></a> <span style="color: #000000;"><em>Topsy-Turvy</em> is a new body of work from Vesna Jovanovic in response to stories of French medieval marketplace carnivals, where an emphasis on the human body and grotesque bodily humor—in contrast to the mind, or soul—brought laughter, understanding, and a sense of connection among people who otherwise seemed to have nothing in common. By randomly pouring ink on Yupo (a brand of synthetic paper) and then intervening with markers and paint, Jovanovic takes us on a fleshy journey into a world of reversal rituals, street performances, sparklers, and candy.</span> <em><span style="color: #000000;">Thank you to Lunar Graphix 🌙 for providing gallery vinyl.</span></em> <a class="btn-secondary" href="https://lawrenceartscenter.org/event/free-state-festival-2025/"><b>Free State Festival</b></a> <strong>5:00pm <a href="https://freestatefestival.org/event/short-trio/">Short Film Trio</a> <em><b>| </b></em>$12 </strong>3 Films + Conversation: <em>Stalking the Bogeyman, </em><em><i>The Hope Chest Has a Secret Drawer & Trauma: The New Epidemic </i></em>Lawrence Arts Center | 940 New Hampshire St. <strong><a class="btn btn-red" href="https://ci.ovationtix.com/35591/production/1238286" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">BUY TICKETS</a><em> </em></strong> <strong>8:00pm <a href="https://freestatefestival.org/event/an-evening-with-todd-barry/">An Evening with Todd Barry</a> <em><b>| </b></em>$25 </strong>Live Comedy Performance Lawrence Arts Center | 940 New Hampshire St. <strong><a class="btn btn-red" href="https://ci.ovationtix.com/35591/production/1237543?performanceId=11631969" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">BUY TICKETS</a><em> </em></strong>
