Presentation: "Mind, Material and Borrowed Time"
Bringing the anatomy of animals together with digital art, this presentation addresses how we borrow from our natural environment to examine, understand, and view the physical world.
Performance: "Mark Twain Tonight!"
"Mark Twain Tonight!" with Hal Holbrook. A living, breathing American Masterpiece! It is, quite simply, one of the most acclaimed and enduring performances in the history of theater. Nearly 50 years ago, a young actor took the stage in a tiny off-Broadway theatre and introduced the world to a man they'd never forget. The actor was Hal Holbrook. The man was Mark Twain.
