FALL EXHIBITIONS | CLOSING EVENTS
018 COMMENCEMENT
Facilitator: SPACES
Friday, October 23, 6:00–8:00 p.m.
Join us as we bid fond farewell to our alma mater with a grab-bag of activities and forums. Academy participants and the general public are invited to participate in The Paradigm Race. Visitors will be encouraged to test their wits and stamina in a fun, friendly, physical, and theoretical debate. The last-standing competitor able to pontificate on random topics while engaged in physical exertion earns an honorary (although useless) doctorate from The Plum Academy. All alumni and the public are welcome!
Cost: FREE, no pre-registration required
SPACELAB | MARK MOSKOVITZ
Repair Shop Closing Auction
Friday, October 23, 2009, 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.
Peruse the re-pairs/re-creations of SPACELab artist Mark Moskovitz this Friday, between 6:00–8:00 p.m. at SPACES. During the closing of Moskovitz's Repair Shop, the artist will host a silent auction consisting of "repaired objects" brought in by gallery visitors and left to the artist's discretion. With the owner's permission, Moskovitz had the option of repairing the object to its original condition or altering the object aesthetically. Visitors then pay for repairs or the modified art object or relinquish the object to the artist for auction. Proceeds will be split between SPACES, the artist, and Cleveland's Success Tech Academy. There is no charge for admission to this event, which also runs concurrently with The Plum Academy's final forum, Commencement: The Paradigm Race.
