Ben Carter and Molly Hatch
are running a new session of THINK BIG! and Think Big 2 at the same
time! So if you missed out on
the opportunity to take one of these in the past, your opportunity is
here to take the series you missed starting January 5th, 2017!
BOTH SERIES START JANUARY 5th, 2017 AND END FEBRUARY 16th, 2017
All content available through March 30, 2017. Remember, you get to work at your own pace!
How does the E-Series work?
Each week Ben Carter or Molly Hatch host a themed
conversation built around a topic that will help you discover ways to
find new audiences, market your business and sell your work. These
interviews are available at your own pace and will be released once a
week for six consecutive weeks. After all the lectures have been posted,
you will STILL have an additional six weeks to access course
information and bonus materials to continue work AT YOUR OWN PACE!
Participants are encouraged to discuss the videos each
week with a prompted discussion group online. Through the discussion
board you can connect with other members of the series and reflect on
questions and new ideas that come up for you each week. Molly and Ben
will be watching the group discussions and joining in to add our
experience with the topic. The discussions are ongoing and accessible
throughout the entire series, so you can participate at your own pace,
regardless of your time zone.
In addition to the weekly interviews and discussions
downloadable worksheets will help you work through topics each week and
generate task lists for getting your goals achieved! The worksheets are
for you to keep and work through as you engage with the course material.
By the end of the six weeks, you will have gathered new thoughts and
ideas, and you will have a clear direction moving forward in your
creative business–on to BIG THINGS

movie day: The Ceramic Presence in Modern Art

Over the last 25 years, Linda Leonard Schlenger has amassed one of the
most important collections of contemporary ceramics in the country. This
exhibition features over 80 objects from the Schlenger collection by
leading 20th-century ceramicists—including John Mason, Jim Melchert,
Kenneth Price, Lucie Rie, and Peter Voulkos—alongside works in other
media from the Yale University Art Gallery’s permanent collection by
artists such as Hans Hofmann, Willem de Kooning, Isamu Noguchi, Mark
Rothko, and Edward Ruscha. Although critically lauded within the
studio-craft movement, works by these ceramicists are only now coming to
be recognized as integral to the wider field of contemporary art. By
interspersing these exceptional examples of the medium with other
objects from this period, including painting, sculpture, and works on
paper, this exhibition aims to reexamine the position of postwar ceramic
sculpture within the context of contemporary art, highlighting the
formal, historical, and theoretical affinities among the works on view.
