SUMMARY:I Am a Story: Self-Portraits at The Warehouse
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition\, drawn from The Warehouse’s permanent collection\, features more than 50 self-portraits by prominent artists from 10 countries on 5 continents\, including works by Cindy Sherman\, Jim Dine\, David Hockney\, Carrie Mae Weems and William Kentridge. \nThe artists have created representations of themselves in a variety of mediums ranging from painting and photography\, to ceramic\, stone\, glass\, and video. The work varies from small scale intimate portraits to larger than life depictions of the artists. \nI Am a Story explores questions of identity and artistic intention. Through their work\, the artists alternatively reveal themselves to the viewer\, while at other times they conceal or disguise themselves. Self-portraiture has a long lineage in the history of art. Through the works in the exhibition\, the artists often show themselves actively working at their craft and engaging with the artistic tradition of self-portraiture\, at times very directly. \nARTPhone\, a cell phone-based audio guide service\, is debuting during I Am a Story. Using their own personal smartphones\, visitors can call in and hear recordings of artists speaking about their self-portraits. The opportunity to connect with world-renowned artists on a personal level in a safe\, fun and easy manner is unique. \nThe guest curator of this exhibition is Nick Pipho. Pipho previously curated exhibitions at the Union Art Gallery while completing his Master’s degree in Art History at UW-Milwaukee. He also assists with The Warehouse’s exhibitions as a preparator. \nFree and open to the public 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Mondays\, Wednesdays\, and Fridays. Limit of 15 guests in the gallery at one time. Masks are required.\nContact: 414-252-0677 ext. 110 \nEmail: info@thewarehousemke.org \n  \n

SUMMARY:Kids Impact Community Social Justice Story Time
DESCRIPTION:Join KIC and Rona Wolfe\, kindergarten teacher and anti-bias educator\, for a Social Justice Story Time. Through stories Rona will lead kid-friendly discussions about racial justice and address how kids can take big actions in small ways. \nAttend one or both of these Social Justice Story Times as different books will be read at each session. \nThrough stories our kids will be empowered with an understanding and celebration of differences while recognizing the similarities and connections we all share. \nDr. Martin Luther King\, Jr. states\, “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is\, ‘What are you doing for others?’” In this spirit we challenge your family to make a commitment to service over the next year. Paint how you will make change in our community on a 6×6” canvas square. Like a quilt\, these squares will be combined into a traveling art exhibit displayed at locations throughout the area. Pick up an art kit for each of your children anytime January 4-22. Locations and pick-up instructions will be provided following registration. \nRona Kader Wolfe has been a kindergarten teacher for 28 years. She earned her bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education from UW-Milwaukee\, where she is currently working towards a master’s degree in Community Engagement and Education.
