Greater Reston Arts Center hosted a lively discussion with four contemporary artists engaged in issues of beauty and the human form. The evening will begin with the interactive performance, Trust, by performance artist Meaghan Harrison. She will then join artists at the Beautiful exhibition: Victoria F. Gaitán, Elissa Farrow Savos, and Bernis von zur Muehlen for a moderated dialogue with Philippa Hughes, founder of The Pink Line Project, noted catalyst for the culturally curious.
We hosted a special event about ‘Pataphysics, the “science of imaginary solutions” -- and its founder, french poet Alfred Jarry, as part of our educational programs this month at the Mill Valley Library. This one-hour lecture and group discussion was held on October 15 in the Creekside Room, and engaged dozens of local community members in a fascinating conversation about the art movement that inspired surrealism and dadaism. Our presenters were Marshall Smith and Priscilla Wheeler, with creative contributions by Mark Petrakis, Freddy Hahne, as well as Fabrice and Phyllis Florin.
This program complements the first public exhibit of the ‘Pataphysical Slot Machine, our poetic oracle, which is on display this month at the Mill Valley Library. Come see the slot machine this month! The exhibit is open from 1 to 5pm every Saturday and Sunday in October, in the downstairs conference room of the Mill Valley Library. Pataphysical Studio members will be on hand to demo the Slot Machine and share what we have learned while building this interactive art project.

People run up the steps to get their mail in this really vintage
building--with a small lobby and a post master you wouldn't believe could be so helpful to so many people...often conversations get going inside and then carry out to the porch--as I watched these two, I had the feeling one of them was quite upset with the way something was being handled...

PEGNet Conference 2019 - "Promoting social, economic and socio-political development through social protection."
September 9-10 | Bonn, Germany
Social protection is a key instrument for fostering social, economic and political development. It is well established that it is not only essential for the reduction of vulnerability, income poverty and income inequality but also for the promotion of human development as it facilitates access to education, health care, nutrition, housing and reduces gender disparities. In recent years, there has been a growing consensus that social protection is also an important requirement for fostering economic growth, social cohesion and political stability.
