Join artist Carly Haffner for a night of discussion, painting, and drinks.
With her current Guild Hall exhibit, Carly Haffner: In the Woods, Carly will share the process and photographs that initiate and inspire her paintings. The focus then quickly turns to an open creative studio, where we all create our own landscapes inspired by Carly’s work.
All who register are encouraged to bring their own desired materials (paints, paper, canvases, brushes, etc.).

Today’s newest non-digital board and card games cultivate creativity, problem solving, social skills, and dexterity through clever game design. Join Guild Hall and Game Master Noah Salaway in embracing the tabletop revolution as we play some of the best modern board games on the market the last Monday of each month.

This month at Guild Hall Game Night we will be playing Mental Blocks.
Mental Blocks is cooperative puzzle solving game where players work together to build a common structure out of foam blocks. For every puzzle, each player receives a card depicting one perspective of the finished structure. Players must work together using their limited information to solve the puzzle before the timer runs out. After a couple rounds, we will try the “hidden traitor variant,” where a player who knows the puzzle’s solution is actively trying to sabotage the team without being found out. Mental Blocks is an incredibly simple concept that has everyone playing with blocks, stretching their minds, and working together.

Puccini’s Turandot is a classic example of the height of the Italian romantic style – through-composed opera with lush orchestral textures, demanding larger voices to declaim highly emotional themes. Most of Puccini’s operas are truly verismo operas in their conception, like La bohème and Tosca, recounting in ‘real time’ tales of love and sometimes violence rather than the mythological and real kings and queens or counts and countesses of the earlier operas. Turandot breaks the mold and is based on a Persian myth which Puccini sets in China. Here Puccini fits the ancient tale of the Princess Turandot in the operatic sound-world that he helped propel. Join pianist Derrick Goff and tenor Cameron Schutza as we explore how to listen to this changing operatic style.
Please join us for the Season Opener Breakfast Reception at 11:30am in the Wasserstein Gallery prior to the lecture-recital at 12pm.
