AVATARS of Black Joy @ Friesen + Lantz Fine Art | Ketchum | Idaho | United States
12:00 am
Black women are a cornerstone of the nation and yet U.S. history often pushes them aside. In this collection, I capture Black joy and the exuberance of being free to enjoy Black women’s significance, dignity, and beauty. Accentuating their skin and using eye contact, I challenge the viewer to accept that any intimidation felt requires self-reflection and highlights how we must combat the untrue beauty standards built from generations of internalized colonization. This exhibit is dedicated to the women who have had a deep influence on me throughout my life. In celebrating them, I aim to honor not only the women but also my father who taught me to respect, listen to, and honor the women in my life. After all, in chess, the queen is the most powerful. – Christopher Adam Williams

My Twelve Impulses - Hunt Rettig @ Friesen + Lantz Fine Art | Ketchum | Idaho | United States
12:00 am
What does it mean when the brain begins to die before the body? Connections that were once there are broken and never repaired. Countless experiences that made up a “life” no longer inform anything. What remains? The present. What happens when the brain scrambles to survive, making new neural connections to make sense of an increasingly confusing present? Primal instinct is colored by the ever unfamiliar. There’s no fear where there’s no awareness of context. And love? Love is met with love and the hungers fall away.

Take a tour of the City of Ketchum’s Iconic Ore Wagons and explore a historical collection from Ketchum’s mining era, the town’s founding, and the historic Wagon Days Big Hitch Parade. The museum also offers souvenirs, reserved seating, and information on the Wagon Days Weekend. Horace Lewis began the “Ketchum Fast Freight Line” soon after the town was founded on August 2, 1880. The first load of ore was carried from the Elkhorn mine to the railroad at Kelton, Utah. These monstrous wagons with six-foot wheels known as “The Big Hitch made the round trip in about two weeks, returning to Ketchum with merchandise and freight for local businesses. In 1884, when the Oregon Shoreline Railroad reached Ketchum, the wagons distributed freight to mines and returned with ore to the Philadelphia smelter. They carried as much as 18,000 pounds of ore and covered 12 to 14 miles per day. By 1902, when rail service to Mackay and Challis was inaugurated, the need for these giant wagons diminished. Today the appearance of the wagons in Ketchum’s annual Wagon Days Parade are reminders of the vital role they played during the area’s early days. The Bonning Cabin located adjacent to the Ore ...

7:30 pm
THE SOUND INSIDE by Adam Rapp Performed in-person on stage at The Spot with a fully vaccinated company Directed by NATALIE BATTISTONE Performed by DENISE SIMONE and KAGEN ALBRIGHT Show Description: Playwright Adam Rapp is a master of the small moments that define a character. He created beautiful portraits in his earlier play Red Light Winter which was a Pulitzer Prize finalist in 2006. He has done so once again in his new play, THE SOUND INSIDE. Here we meet Yale creative writing professor Bella Baird and her brilliant, guarded, challenging student Christopher Dunn. Bella starts by addressing the audience in direct, brutally open narration. She is his professor, his mentor, alone by choice, supremely confident. She is drawn to him, somehow compelled to know him. And also there is something she wants from him. Something that she may not be able to ask. The tension of their encounters builds quietly, provocatively as the playwright drives forward to a stunning conclusion. RUN TIME: approx. 90 minutes with no intermission SUITABILITY: Recommended for audiences 14+ due to mature themes. STANDARD TICKET >> $33 STUDENT/30 and UNDER>> $15 *special price for patrons currently enrolled in school and/or patrons aged 30 and under ...
