The Faculty Staff Connections Committee is collecting used prescription eyeglasses, lenses and hearing aids in memory of CSI employee and Lions Club member, Jennifer Patterson.
Lions Club donation boxes are located in every building on campus through
Friday, April 12. Please ask friends, family, neighbors and co-workers to donate too.
The donations that we collect will help improve the quality of life for children and adults living in low and middle-income communities around the world. Many will experience corrected vision and hearing for the first time, enabling them to lead productive working lives, support their families, attend school and advance their education.
Thank you,
Faculty Staff Connections Committee

Milica Popovic and Maurizio Giuseppucci are featured in the Herrett Center's newest art exhibit called "
MARE NOSTRUM"
.
Dates: January 22 -
March 23, 2019
Cost: Free
Audience: Public
Artist Statement:
A collaborative exhibition "Mare Nostrum" is a tribute to my travels to Greece from my native country, Serbia, with my family every summer in the past several years. The exhibition depicts a vast space of the Aegean Sea and a purity of its blue color. Lucid memories of this astonishing scenery as well as memories of my childhood at the Adriatic Sea, before the war in my native country, have inspired me to dedicate my most recent creations to these journeys.
The exhibition is a collaboration with an Italian artist, Maurizio Giuseppucci, and his vision of the Adriatic Sea through photography and video work. Maurizio is an accomplished and versatile artist with a refined level of expertise for contemporary art.
Maurizio and I both grew up in two countries divided by the Adriatic Sea. The sea meant closeness, but political systems often times stood on a way and created more distance. By collaborating on this exhibition we strive to show intimacy in proximity for people of both lands. Our attachment to the sea was always beyond political differences between Eastern and Western Europe.

The CSI Stage Door Series will present "Inside Daughters of Salome" at
7:30 p.m. on February 15, in the CSI Fine Arts Auditorium. Tickets are $10 for adults or $5 for students. Tickets will be available at the CSI Box Office, by calling 732-6288, at the door, or by going online to
tickets.csi.edu.
Join Inspirata Dance Project for another "inside" peek into their summer 2019 production featuring refugee stories set by Cindy Jones, a new work set by Lauren Edson, and a new work set by Ashley Sandau. IDP believes in cultivating collaborations and is dedicated to the continued development of dance and dance education providing an environment for choreographers and dancers to explore, create, and share their work. In Inside Inspirata, you'll get a chance to sit on the stage where the artists perform, get an intimate look into their creative process, and talk with the artists.
The CSI Stage Door Series, intimate arts experiences where both performers and audience members are on the stage itself, are designed to be thought-provoking and a little out of the ordinary in different ways - whether it's because of the intimate setting, the material performed, the way they are presented, or the collaborations involved. Follow up productions Jennifer Miller in The Second Coming of Joan of Arc on April 18.
For more information, contact the CSI Fine Arts Center at 732-6788.
