Please join us for an opening reception for an exhibit of 18 works by contemporary artist Karen Johnston, a former artist and resident of Bloomington, currently residing in Nashville, TN, Her award-winning work has been highlighted in solo, group, and juried shows and can be found in galleries and numerous private and corporate collections across the country and internationally. Extending Hope is an abstract dialogue celebrating resilience within the human experience. Colorful expressions invite the viewer to slow down, reflect, and lean into possibility. Johnston not only wants to uplift and inspire the community with meaningful art, but also give back.

Each donation will also be matched dollar for dollar by First United Church. Meet Karen in person at the opening reception and support a great cause!

Deaf President Now! recounts the eight days of historic protests held at Gallaudet University in 1988 after the school’s board of trustees appointed a hearing president over several very qualified Deaf candidates. After a week of rallies, boycotts, and protests, the students of Gallaudet University triumph over an uncaring board and administration as the hearing president resigns and beloved dean Dr. I. King Jordan becomes the university’s first Deaf president. The protests marked a pivotal moment in civil rights history, with an impact that extended well beyond the Gallaudet campus, and paved the way for the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

We invite you to join us for an evening with author Brennon Lane to celebrate his debut novel, Time-Tripping Over You, on its publication day!
ABOUT THE BOOK:
In this slow-burn queer trans romance from author Brennon Lane, two time-traveling college students team up to stop the time travel episodes forcing them to relive their closeted past without disrupting their future.
College freshman Silas Turner is a scientific anomaly. Thrown back in time uncontrollably, he’s forced into his pre-transition body for hours to days at a time, reliving random events in his past. Why? Every cell in his astrophysics major brain is straining to figure it out. But the “time trips” just keep on coming, disrupting Silas’s life, and he’s certain he’s a one-of-a-kind phenomenon—until brash, guitar-playing Jude Forrester barges into his life, exhibiting the same symptoms.
He claims a future version of Silas visited him, and that, according to future-Silas, they’re meant to help each other stop the time trips. If working together can really lead to finding a cure, Silas can handle Jude’s tortured-artist attitude; Jude can humor Silas’s nerdy obsession with the stars.
As they get closer to a solution, they grow closer to each other. But Jude is still grieving an old connection that broke his heart, and he can’t help but wonder if changing the past might save himself and Silas a lot of heartache. Amidst cataclysmic consequences, Silas and Jude must face the cosmic circumstances that brought them together if they hope to protect their timeline—and the future they seem destined to share.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Brennon Lane is a Black, queer, trans author who can’t seem to stop creating characters whose stories beg to be told. Writing exclusively in the LGBTQ+ genre, he hopes to offer the younger queer community the diverse representation in media that he always sought. Time-Tripping Over You is his debut novel.
