Arts Commerce & Community
A Freewheeling Conversation
for those who Make Things
and those who Enjoy the Things
that Others Make
Join a discussion focusing on the creative process and its inherent contradictions with our consumer culture at The Grail, in the Stone Cottage at 119 Duncan Avenue in Cornwall-on-Hudson at 7 pm on Wednesday, February 1.
Questions to be explored include:
How did the arts--in all their forms--evolve from communal expression to product for sale?
How does this commodification of the arts effect both creators and receivers?
What is the impact on us as individuals and communities?
What, if any, are the alternatives?
Suggested Reading --The Gift: Imagination and the Erotic Life of Property by Lewis Hyde
Please bring some food or drink to share.
RSVP requested to [email protected] or 534-2031.
