Every week, egos are crushed and legends are born at Trivia Brawl, Muncie's longest-running trivia gameshow. Since 2007, Trivia Brawl has been mixing comedy, current events, politics, local pride, pop culture, science, history, an arms race of terrible team names, and alcohol into an Entertainment Nergasm Bonanza™.
 
- All players are encouraged to gain a competitive advantage by requesting topics
- Every tenth question is part of our inadvertent quest to discriminate against the deaf, and has players listening to a song and attempting to identify its title, band, and album.
- The sixth round is a special visual aid round in which the blind are instead at an unfair disadvantage.
- Booster Charades: The team in last place can optionally play a round of charades on stage for a bonus point while we point and laugh at them
- Punitive Karaoke: A team deemed worthy of punishment is called upon to read a sheet of lyrics with neither musical accompaniment nor a clue what the song is. All teams can get up to two points if they can correctly guess the band or the title of the song.

Come and play for free, solo or with a team, and show off your command of all knowledge trivial. Win, and split up $25 in food and drinks. Lose, and possibly get a prize anyway. The games tend to last an hour and a half, unless we go into a Sudden Death Lightning Bloodfeud Overtime Round (of Death)™.

The Artist Within
313 S Walnut

May at the Artist Within will feature the annual exhibit of work done by the Advanced Art Students from Muncie Southside and Muncie Central High Schools. Drawings, paintings, jewelry, ceramics, sculpture and more will remain on display from May 1 through May 31; several pieces are for sale.

An opening reception to meet the artists will be held during First Thursday May 1 from 5-8pm.  Light refreshments will be served and live music will be provided by Bryce Taylor.

The Fickle Peach (21+)
117 E Charles

Following the success of their past collaborative themed shows, Aaron Brunsman and Jarrod Case will be heading up a group show at Fickle Peach for May's First Thursday. The concept is simple. Participating artists must follow a common theme for their works to be displayed, and the theme is the only thing that is in common in the works. The artists can choose which media they prefer along with his or her approach to the common theme. The theme for this show is "Nudes". The opening will start at 5pm with refreshments and an artists meet and greet.

Gallery 308
308 E Main
Circles and Birds

An exhibit featuring artist Sally Myers opens First Thursday at Gallery 308 on May 1.  Circles and Birds is a collection of metal scultpures created from steel rings Myers found at a scrap yard in Muncie. The opening reception for the new exhibit will be held from 5 to 8 p.m.

Myers said, "I love everything about these rings - the uneven shape, the empty space inside, the opportunity to add objects at the top, bottom and sides, the material - steel - to which I can weld other steel shapes. I also like the fact that they can be displayed outdoors and develop a beautiful rust patina."

She added, "I make this work by working at a coal forge, heating the steel rods to yellow heat, then forming the pieces with a hand hammer or power hammer.  I cut the steel birds from steel sheets using a plasma torch.   There is quite a lot of magic in working with hot steel.  After you heat and bend the steel, even after it is cold, you can appreciate that it was once fluid and able to bend which I think of as 'remembering when it was hot'."

Myers retired from teaching art at Ball State University a few years ago and currently lives on a farm in the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia with a dog, cat, and a few guinea fowl. Her work has been shown in exhibitions all over the United States including the 27th International Exhibition on Animals in Art, Earth, Wheel and Fire, the International Juried Ceramics Exhibition, and the International Juried Exhibition at The Herbst International Exhibition Hall at the Presidio of San Francisco, California.

Myers is also back in Muncie to celebrate the dedication April 30th of the three panel steel sculpture titled ” Growing through the Changes”, she created located on the  grounds  of City Hall. The sculpture was commissioned and funded by Gallery 308, its members and from major funding from the Community Foundation of Muncie and Delaware County and donated to the City of Muncie and its residents.

The exhibit will be on display through May 30.  The gallery’s hours are Fridays 3-7pm and Saturdays from 12:30 – 5:00pm.  Admission is free.

Gordy Fine Art & Framing Co.
224 E Main
Acrylic Energy Paintings

Muncie landscape architect Eric Ernstberger spends a lot of time with his head in the clouds. His work requires a “view from the top” of cityscapes, which he then helps design for ease of travel and beauty. It is not surprising to find that his day work influences his art, which he creates mostly at night. As the rest of his family sleeps, the artist applies copious amounts of acrylic paint to thick watercolor paper in swirls, streaks and cross hatches that become sunset deserts, African landscapes or lavender-lit interiors. One painting, titled, “Afar,” could be a modern take on the famous Monet water lily series. The artist delivers just enough; it is then up to the viewer to decipher the rest.

Art is a form of communication, after all, and tells a story that can only be told in that medium, at that time, by that artist. Ernstberger is deeply connected to the surface of our planet and sees it with eyes educated to know how humans interact with the hills, mountains, plains and waters of our world, for better or worse. His, “American Maelstrom,” delivers an ominous message via active strokes of red, white and blue with occasional merges into that welcomed benevolent lavender.  The artist points out that his work offers “intense abstraction or new perspectives on familiar subjects.”

Ernstberger will speak about his latest work, and answer questions during his opening reception on Thursday, May 1, 2014. The short talk will begin at 6:15 PM in the main gallery, and the public is invited.

The Heorot (21+)
219 S Walnut

Heorot will be featuring a drawing show with artists including Nick Jones, Elise Rodrick, Janelle Summers and Casey Parmerlee to name a few.

Ivy Tech Patterson Building
118 S Walnut – 3rd floor ballroom

Please join Dr. Amanda Latz, Assistant Professor of Adult, Higher, and Community Education, and the graduate students in the EDCC 641 course “Community Colleges and Diversity” at their Photovoice event. The Photovoice event is a participatory photo exhibition to be held on May 1, 2014 from 5 to 7 pm at Ivy Tech Community College’s Patterson Building, third floor ballroom. The Photovoice exhibition is the culmination of a research project carried out by six graduate students in the EDCC 641 course who worked with administrators and students at Ivy Tech Community College involved in LIFE STEPS, a federally-funded TRIO and student support services program that provides students with tutoring, counseling, and instructional services for student success. Through a process of providing six Ivy Tech students with disposable cameras, talking with the students about their photos, and analyzing the conversations to gain understanding about students’ experiences, the EDCC 641 class—in collaboration with Ivy Tech—has organized the Photovoice exhibition as a way to showcase the participatory action research. The exhibition will display the students’ photos, include refreshments, and serve as an interactive space for dialogue and reflection. All Muncie, Ivy Tech Community College, and Ball State University community members are welcome to attend and engage the students at this event. For more information about the EDCC 641 photovoice project, please visit the website or contact Dr. Amanda Latz at aolatz@bsu.edu.

The Living Room
130 W Jackson
Perilous

Artist Cassy Hoffine explains that "'Perilous' is a reminder of simpler times. When we were children, our imaginations roamed free. Now, adulthood overshadows the days of imaginative playing. Something that was once innocent and fun is too unpredictable: a child could get hurt if they are not protected from every risk. I photographed children in out-of-the ordinary situations, and the artwork is intended for an adult audience. Since every adult has some memory of being a child, the work juxtaposes their perspectives with the children’s."

Muncie Makes Lab
628 S Walnut

Muncie Makes Lab will have student work from multiple disciplines, but mainly CAP, featured in a gallery style. Students in an interdisciplinary studio have been working all semester to reopen the building into a gallery/workshop space.

Rose Court
125 E Charles
Cultural Narratives Through Photography

The Rose Court's guest artists for May will be the students of the "Design with Photography" class in the Landscape Architecture Department at Ball State University.

"Cultural Narratives Through Photography" is an exhibition celebrating the pervading spirit of place. Thirteen individual photographers present their work in series, exploring topics ranging from landscape, place, iconoclastic symbols, and the passage of time. The exhibition highlights the stories held within each subject, capturing these accounts through various photographic techniques. The photographic series will be on display in the central atrium of The Rose Court Building and will guide visitors through a journey exploring varying place and photographic media. Specific series address the “Unaltered Landscape,” “Building Blocks of America,” “Commuter’s Drive,” “Power of Sunlight,” and “Layers of the Trail.” The photographers present work in color, black and white, and photographic oil detailing. Materiality, depth of field, juxtaposition, lighting, and motion are just a few of the controlled variables explored. Please join the exhibitors as they celebrate investigation and artistry. Light refreshments will be provided. For more information or images, contact culturalphoto@gmail.com.

Corner of Walnut and Charles

The Spring 2014 Muncie YART will be held from 5:00pm to 9:00pm. RSVP at https://www.facebook.com/events/1454615158108419

YART is a Yard Sale for Art! We keep the yard sale vibe going by having the sale outdoors and keeping all art priced under $40. YART began in Muncie, Indiana with students at Ball State University and continues to gain popularity in several U.S. cities. The Muncie YART is now held in Downtown Muncie, twice a year, Spring and Fall.

Muncie’s Spring 2014 YART will be held in conjunction with the May 2014 First Thursday Gallery Walk. YART is held in the Old National Financial lot on the corner of Walnut and Charles Streets in Downtown Muncie, Indiana. This community art sale,  with a goal of making art affordable and accessible to everyone, brings together artists and art patrons in a casual and unique setting.

All forms of art are welcome! Art of all kinds, by all kinds of artists! YART encourages interaction between artists and the community, hoping to make art more accessible, especially to those who think they cannot afford to buy art for themselves. To this goal, all YART art will be priced under $40!

Each YART Artist will be present throughout YART to meet the public, discuss their art, handle sales personally, and some artists will be making art LIVE at YART!

The Spring 2014 YART will feature over 50 artists with their beaded jewelry, soaps, photography, candles, buttons, oil/acrylic/watercolor paintings, fused glass art and jewelry, prints, knits for children and adults, screenprinted t-shirts, drawings, sculpture, lampwork glass beads, stuffed animals and dolls, clothing, digital art, baby booties, and mosaics; as well as the YART Hands-On Children’s ArtSpace, appearances by the acappella singing group Slyphs & Seraphim, the Cornfed Derby Dames, Muncie Burn Mob, the Blue Sky Carnival Band, Muncie OUTreach, and so much more! Fun for all ages - YART and the First Thursday Gallery Walk are for the whole family!

YART is still accepting artists! There is no cost to vend at YART, and YART does not take a cut from artist’s sales. Artists manage their own sales and need their own display. To become a YART Artist, please email Miss Moth here:  MissMoth@gmail.com

The Artist Within
313 S Walnut

Downstairs - Then, Now, and POW!
The Artist Within will feature the sculptural assemblages of Angie Hedman. Hedman received her BS in Art Education and a BFA in Metalsmithing from BSU in 1998. A few years later she went back and to earn an MA in Metalsmithing from BSU in 2006. Since 1999, Angie has taught Art at Lincoln Middle/High School in Cambridge City, IN. She teaches grades 6-8 general art, and grades 9-12 three-dimensional art. This talented young artist resides in Muncie with her husband and two children. They own Phoenix Design, a small screen-printing business in Muncie.

Hedman says that the work in “Then, Now and POW!” is a collection of past and present experiences and interests.  Each piece tells a story.  Some of the pieces in this collection are about secrets, lies, truth, ex-boyfriends, failure and success.

This particular collection of work was also influenced by Angie’s love of Pop Art, comic books, toys and board games.  She often pairs contrasting objects together.  The artist feels that something magical happens when objects from different genres, decades, textures, and materials merge and "make sense".  She likes to collect small and unusual objects that she often uses in her work. Vintage photographs, copper wire, screws, bolts, text, and paint also make their way in to most of her work.  The work in this collection can be divided into two categories: Sculptural Assemblage Boxes, and Gameboard Purses.  The two are quite different, but still complement each other.  Overlapping themes occur in both. Make plans to stop by for light refreshments and an opportunity to meet the artist.

Upstairs - What’s in Your Garden?
Spring has finally Sprung! In celebration of the much awaited arrival of Spring, the Artist Within is hosting a “POP-UP” Community Art Exhibit in their upper level gallery.  Local artists of all ages and skill levels have been invited to exhibit their 2-Dimensional answer to “What’s in Your Garden?” This non-juried exhibit will be on display June 5-28.  Most work is for sale and the participating artists are encouraged to be on hand for the First Thursday festivities from 5-8pm on Thursday June 5th. Please make plans to come support all who have been generous enough to share their artwork.

Cornerstone Center for the Arts
520 E Main (2nd floor)
Students Endeavors

Join Cornerstone Center for Arts for First Thursday on June 5,  2014, for an opening reception and art show featuring two Cornerstone student artists, Tambra White and Wendy Carpenter. Their combined show will feature works of acrylic on canvas, landscapes, odes to nature, and watercolor pieces. The opening reception will take place from 6:00 to 8:00 pm. The gallery will be on display throughout the month of June.

Wendy Carpenter lives cozily in Yorktown with her husband of almost 23 years, two of her three children, and spoiled Shih-Tzu mix, Jax. Along with her art work, she is also enjoys the spotlight, acting in many of the district’s local theatres.

Carpenter learned her artistic style from her great-grandfather and remembers their time painting landscapes together fondly. Most of her works are comprised of acrylic on canvas, but she also enjoys dabbling in watercolors.

Tambra White began her career in special education, rather than art. After teaching for over a decade, she transitioned to become a stay at home mom for her two children and husband of 17 years.

White first discovered her talent during a class at Cornerstone Center for the Arts. At first White only mirrored her instructor’s work, but eventually created her own style and branched out to a variety of different media and content, her favorite being trees.

The Art Gallery is located on the 2nd floor of the building. It will continue to exhibit and promote the artwork of Cornerstone students and instructors, local high school and college students, as well as local and regional artists.

The Fickle Peach (21+)
117 E Charles

Our artist is Ron Bell for June. Artist statement: "My work is somewhat traditional in general but I try to add an interesting twist or point of view.  I like to use reflective surfaces, glass for example, to add interest. I enjoy all mediums, probably say oil on canvas is my favorite. Much of my work is realism in nature."

“An Old-Fashioned Pop Painter” showcasing the talents of New Orleans artist Nancy Witte opens First Thursday at Gallery 308 on June 5. “The exhibition features her favorite themes of hotels, motels, sixties advertising, Coney Island and the sea. The opening reception for the new exhibit will be held from 5 to 8 p.m. The public is welcome. 

Witte says, “I have a definite thing for signs. My dad was a commercial artist for International Harvester, the farm & tractor company, which was kind of funny because he was a total city boy. He worked in their sign division and there were sign industry manuals around the house with different letter type sets that just fascinated me. I could look at those for hours.”

Born in Chicago, she had no formal training; however, she was influenced by both her parents who met   at the American Academy of Art while studying commercial illustration. “There were always good art supplies around the house, particularly Prismacolor pencils.”

According to Witte, she works from both her own digital photos & found images and almost everything she paints is in acrylic.  She states, “I have a love/hate relationship with Chicago; it has definitely fueled my art. Plus I was a vagabond when I was young living in Seattle, Key West, New York, and Alaska.

She now lives outside New Orleans in Meraux, Louisiana, on a thin strip of land between the marshes of Lake Borgne & the Mississippi River.  Witte says the light here is fabulous with the sun hitting the water on both sides; it's the best light I've ever painted in...besides Key West.  She added, “A lot the things I have painted are gone, wiped away by Katrina--the Sugar Bowl Motel, the Deep South Motel. I suppose that is natural anywhere, but the sense of change is more marked here.”

Her work has been exhibited at Remembering What Care Forgot: An Exhibition Celebrating New Orleans Culture & Revival at ABC NO RIO New York, the Pilsen Juried Art Fair in Chicago, and the Intergalactic Krewe of Chewbacchus Art Show at Big Top Gallery in New Orleans.

The exhibit will be on display through June 27.  The gallery’s hours are Fridays 3-7pm and Saturdays from 12:30 – 5:00pm.  Admission is free.

Summer Invitational: New Modes

Twelve contemporary artists have been invited to exhibit for two months at Gordy Fine Art & Framing. Gallery manager Braydee Euliss selected artists to create “a more contemporary collection.” While the artists work in traditional formats – sculpture, photography, printmaking, etc., they tend to be non-traditional in their application or approach. “This show is a response to our public to help keep them abreast of all art trends,” Euliss explains. “Part of our job as a gallery is to keep patrons excited about the art we hang and install.” While a few of the exhibitors have ties to Muncie or the gallery, none of them are “house artists” – those exclusively represented by the Gordy’s.

Three of the exhibitors, however, did work for the Gordy’s while attending Ball State University.  Seven have direct ties to the university, either as art professors or employees of the BSU Art Museum. Tim McMichael is from Indianapolis and Art Hazelwood is a well-known San Francisco artist. McCauley holds an MFA from Columbus College of Art & Design (Ohio), and is now a professor there.

“I looked for work that excites me, that I would want to have on the wall for two months,” offers Euliss about her collection. “While it is hard to lump these artists into one group, I would suggest that they are all using familiar media in non-traditional ways; a formula our patrons will connect with.”

Summer Invitational: New Modes, will open on June 5, 2014, at 5 PM, as part of the First Thursday arts walk. Light refreshments will be served and several of the artists will be in attendance. A short talk about the exhibit will be given at 6:15 PM, with a question/answer session following. 

The exhibit will close on Saturday, August 2, 2014 at 3 PM.

Gordy Fine Art & Framing is located at 224 East Main Street, next door to Muncie Civic Theatre. For more information, call the gallery at (765)284-8422, or visit www.gordyframing.com.

The Heorot (21+)
219 S Walnut

Heorot will feature Riles Kyuubi, a student at Ball State studying printmaking. Kyuubi will be exhibiting a series of figure drawings that explore, not only contour of the body, but for the artist tap in to memories of places and times.

Artist Statement: "I had never liked figure drawing. I never liked the images that I was left with. They never spoke to me or did much of anything. After taking classes and doing it for years I finally found that I enjoyed looking back and remember the subjects. I would think back on their personality or what it was like drawing that day. Figure drawing for me became a process or remembering a place in time a spiritual portrait of someone I didn't know. In this series I was trying to find something ethereal within each piece. I would take an element and obsess over it until I felt that I could remember the moment, the time, and space for a lifetime."

Afterhours Art Reels – Big Lebowski

Muncie Downtown Development will host outdoor “Afterhours Art Reels” following the First Thursday Gallery Walk.  The Big Lebowski will be projected onto the Mutual Bank wall on Charles St. at dusk.  Seating will be available on the Fickle Peach patio for guests 21 and up.

Rose Court
125 E Charles
The White River Ruggers

The group will be displaying their highly creative hand hooked rug creations.  Traditional rug hooking is the technique of pulling loops of fabric strips, usually wool through the mesh of a backing, usually burlap, rug warp, linen or monks cloth, to create a pile.  The hook is much like a crochet hook.  The wool may be new fabric or recycled wool clothing that has been torn apart, washed, dried and cut into strips.  The rug hookers often custom dye their wool in order to create the pallet of colors they use, much like mixing paint for a painting. Patterns will range from traditional to contemporary in a variety of styles and intricacy.

Rose Court is looking for artists for the following months: July, September, November, and December. Any artists who would like the opportunity to exhibit at Rose Court during First Thursday are encouraged to email loisgreens3@gmail.com.  We can accommodate most mediums (sculpture artists would need to provide their own tables/pedestals).

The Artist Within
313 S Walnut

July’s featured artist at The Artist Within is Anne Maddox.  “Into the Woods” is an exhibit of her watercolors that opens with First Thursday July 3rd from 5-8pm and remains through July 26th.

Anne was born in London, England, but raised in the rural farming community of Kent; a beautiful countryside the English have crowned their ‘Garden of England’. Being reared in such a rich and beautiful environment, it is easy to understand why she is inspired to create such realistic paintings of nature.

The fine details of Ms. Maddox’s creations begin with meticulous drawings and are concluded with the perfect blend of colors that create a ‘realism’ that touches people’s hearts. The underlying theme of all of Anne’s paintings is her spiritual acceptance and honest reflection of true nature. “If there is a flaw in the subject I am portraying, I leave it in. Nature is so beautiful it need not be embellished upon. Inherently, everything in nature is imperfect. We should appreciate the eclectic entity and regard it as perfection in itself”, states Ms. Maddox. With each unique painting, Anne relays her acceptance of reality without tainting the inherent beauty of her own perspective. This philosophy gives each of her creations a living aura that softly whispers; cherish all life for it is truly beautiful.

We hope you will make plans to meet Anne Maddox on First Thursday and enjoy light refreshments and live music by Ole Bohn.

Gordy Fine Art & Framing Co.

Gordy Gallery Celebrates 25 Years

When Genny Gordy walked into the downtown art supply store in 1989, she was looking for a new sketchbook. The store owner, interested in retiring, suggested Gordy might want to buy the whole store. A few weeks later, Genny and Brian Gordy were the new proprietors of Muncie’s only art supply shop, which included picture framing services. The Gordy’s were attracted to the idea of working together, as that is how they first met as BSU art students in the 1970’s. Placed into the same working team in an art education class, the two were engaged by the end of the term. They worked in various art fields – education, interior design, art center director – before landing the “family business,” originally called, “Art Mart.” College friend, Karen Fisher, joined them later, eventually purchasing the art supply portion of the business and making camp in the “Village” area, just east of the Ball State campus.

The Gordy’s ramped up the framing portion of their shop to include antique frame restoration services and historic frame replication. Serious collectors, art museums and artists began to place orders that Brian and Ben Gordy would fill, using centuries-old carving and gilding techniques. Through these efforts and others, the two men were given the distinction of “Indiana Artisan;” the only two awarded for framing in the state. Brian was also honored for his watercolor paintings, including his turtle series.

Meanwhile, Genny Gordy was talking with artists, offering services to promote and stimulate sales of paintings, hand-pulled prints, pottery and jewelry created in the region. Today, over two dozen artists call Gordy Fine Art & Framing their home gallery. Monthly First Thursday events are the standard, and sales still bring a thrill. Says Brian, “We couldn’t have dreamed, all those years ago in college, that one day we’d be in a position to surround ourselves with art and artists, while enjoying the fine craft of picture framing, right in downtown Muncie. So many events and so many people helped put Muncie on the map as an arts destination. Without that foundation, how would we have ever made it to twenty five years in our dream jobs?”

The Gordy’s, and gallery manager, Braydee Euliss, invite artists and patrons to join them on Thursday, July 3, 2014, from 5 to 8 PM for anniversary cake, refreshments and door prizes while viewing the current exhibit, “Summer Invitational: New Modes.”  A short talk will be given at 6:15 PM. Gordy Fine Art & Framing is located downtown at 224 East Main Street, next door to Muncie Civic Theatre.
