SUMMARY:Looking Forward: Black Indianapolis Artists Imagine the Future
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit and panel discussion address the long-lasting impact of African American enslavement on our shared history and sense of identity. These offerings provide a space to delve into complicated histories by focusing on Indianapolis artists and how identity creates the context for telling stories.  \nArtwork in the exhibition Past is Present: Black Artists Respond to the Complicated Histories of Slavery comes from contemporary African American artists addressing the legacies and impacts of slavery and the 160-year-fight to receive equal rights and acknowledgement for their contributions to our collective culture. By featuring works of both nationally renowned and local artists paired with primary source documents from the Indiana Historical Society\, Indiana State Museum\, and others\, this exhibit and panel discussion will help attendees see how slavery has shaped not only our nation\, but our neighbors\, friends\, and communities.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ \nDoors to the galleries will open at 3pm to give visitors an opportunity to meet with the artists\, curators\, and participants for an informal tour of the exhibit. This panel for Looking Forward: Black Indianapolis Artists Imagine the Future features moderator Kaila Austin\, Campus and Community Engagement Coordinator for the exhibit; Curator Dr. Jonathan Square\, Assistant Professor of Visual Culture at the Parson’s School of Design; and local artists Shamira Wilson\, Matt Cooper\, and Lobyn Hamilton. \nA partnership between IU Herron School of Art and Design at IUPUI\, Center for Africana Studies and Culture at IUPUI\, and IUPUI Senior Academy. \nContact event organizers at 317-274-2462 or ktaustin@indiana.edu.  \nWalk-ins welcome!\n \nVirtual opportunity also available by registering here. \nEvent: Saturday\, Nov. 5\, 5:30-6:30pm \nExhibit: Sept. 28\, 2022—Jan. 15\, 2023\, 12-5pm  \nMatthew Cooper.

SUMMARY:Jadzia\, My Beloved Old Friend! Gender Representation in Science Fiction
DESCRIPTION:As with many political and socially sensitive topics\, SciFi has long created a safe space to fully explore one’s identity. Hear from SciFi fans who have explored – and embraced – their gender and sexual identities through the art and power of science fiction. \nThis inclusive and welcoming event features a moderated discussion with SciFi fans who have a nontraditional experience with their own gender identity or sexual orientation. They will explore inspirational models they’ve encountered in SciFi stories and how these models have affected their own journeys. A wider discussion will also examine some of the ways SciFi has represented gender\, romance\, and sexual orientation through film\, writing\, and even fannish gatherings (e.g.\, cosplay) and how these spaces of imagination create accepting environments that encourage a full exploration of one’s identity. \nA partnership between Starbase Indy\, Gender Nexus\, and Center for Inquiry. \nContact the event organizers at 317-626-2163 or Lisa_meece@starbaseindy.org.  \nWalk-ins welcome\, but registration is strongly encouraged by Nov. 6.  \nRegister below.
