Phantasmagoric Fruits features light fixtures created by Eskenazi School Assistant Professor, Justin Bailey. This immersive exhibit explores lamps as objects of utility but also spatial adornment, creating a fantastical science fiction scene with expanding, growing and glowing light forms that find themselves somewhere between botanic and sputnik, disco and digital.
Justin Bailey is a furniture and lighting designer & Assistant Professor of foundations (Creative Core) in Indiana University Bloomington’s Eskenazi School of Art, Architecture and Design. Justin received an MFA in 3D Design from the University of Iowa (2016) and a BFA in Sculpture from Webster University (2012). Justin received a MetropolisLikes award in 2017, and a 2018 LIT Lighting Design Award. He was named by Azure Magazine as one of Toronto Design Week’s Top 5 Emerging Talents in 2018.

In the midst of a global pandemic, many Monroe County residents did what they could to help their family, friends, and neighbors stay healthy. The exhibit, We Answer the Call: Our Neighbors’ Stories from the COVID-19 Community Oral History Project, features quotes from members of our community who have helped or been helped by our neighbors and participated in the History Center’s COVID-19 Community Oral History Project. Located in the Deckard Education Room and free to the public, We Answer the Call shines the light on our local helpers who answered our call for help during the pandemic.
Support for We Answer the Call is provided by IU Health Bloomington, Indiana Humanities, and members of the Monroe County History Center.

Learn about January’s full moon, the Wolf Moon. This is exciting because tonight is the peak full moon! Trail 7 is rated moderate, but should be considered rugged in the dark.

Red flashlights are preferred for night vision and can be loaned to hikers on request.
At the peak of his creative powers the 29 year old Bernardo Bertolucci rejected the influence of mentor, Jean-Luc Godard, and partnered up with Vittorio Storaro and developed his own style, creating one of the most visually dazzling, politically and psychologically intriguing, landmark Italian films.
The story begins in Rome, 1938. Marcello (Jean-Louis Trintignant) is a young fascist who takes on the job of assassinating his former professor who has fled to Paris. A thriller as well as study of Italian politics and psychological character, Bertolucci’s Oscar nominated adaptation of Alberto Moravia’s novel (an adaptation Moravia greatly admired) has gone on to influence filmmakers such as Francis Ford Coppola, Paul Schrader and Martin Scorsese and remains one of the great triumphs of world cinema.
This is a new 4K restoration, supervised by Vittorio Storaro • 1970 • in Italian with English subtitles • 111 min
Stewart Huff was born in Campbellsville, Kentucky and grew up in Knoxville, Tennessee. He has been performing comedy for over 15 years, beginning when he decided to drop out of college to become a writer. Currently touring theatres, comedy clubs and special events across the country, Huff reaches past the norm for his genuine — and genuinely unexpected — comedy. His knack for embracing the foibles of humanity and his refreshing originality make him as likeable as he is hilarious. A storyteller at heart, Huff continues to amaze with his clever material and personal wit.
Huff has performed in comedy clubs nationally and internationally, including the Improv in Los Angeles and New York, the Punchline in Atlanta and the Funny Bone in Omaha, as well as countless others.
Ponyo centers on the friendship between five-year-old Sosuke and a magical goldfish named Ponyo, the young daughter of a sorcerer father and a sea-goddess mother. After a chance encounter, Ponyo yearns to become a human so she can be with Sosuke. As to be expected with Miyazaki, the film is awash in pure unbridled imagination and visual wonder — but it is the tender love, humor, and devotion exhibited by Ponyo and Sosuke that form the emotional heart of the film.
Studio Ghibli at the BCT:
1) Ponyo January 6th at 7pm
2) Princess Mononoke January 13th at 7pm
3) Howl’s Moving Castle January 20th at 7pm
4) The Wind Rises January 27th at 7pm

Just as the environments where we live include different aspects pieced together, we will use collage to piece together a landscape. As we work, we will discuss places we live and have visited and our connection to these places.
Our work will be inspired by Ella Morton’s exhibition on view, The Dissolving Landscape. Ella’s material process expresses the complex relationship humans have with this landscape, which involves awe, admiration and exploitation. Read more about her work here: ellamorton.com.
Children may be dropped off or accompanied by one adult.
Before Brown County State Park became a park, the land was part of the county. Many homesteads existed here, including a small village known as Kelp Village. Hike with us as we explore this old village – we’ll see foundations of buildings, home sites, and more! This hike is about 1.5 miles round trip and is probably the least rugged of all the Winter Hikes. Most of this hike will be along a park road, but we will venture off the road and off trail into the woods to see some of the sites. There aren’t any big altitude changes which is what makes this one so much easier. There is also one creek crossing. Please dress for the weather. 1.5 miles, rating: Easy, 1.5 hours long Meet at the Nature Center; then we’ll carpool to the destination. Please do not bring pets on off trail hikes.

Multidisciplinary artist Saul Williams brings his unique dynamism to this Afrofuturist vision, a sci-fi punk musical that’s a visually wondrous amalgamation of themes, ideas, and songs that Williams has explored in his work, notably his 2016 album MartyrLoserKing. Co-directed with his partner, the Rwandan-born artist Anisia Uzeyman,
The film itself resists the very idea of a beginning and end; it shatters any attempt at summation. But we’ll try. Neptune Frost is the story of an intersex hacker (named Neptune Frost, and played by two different actors) who leads a revolt against the world’s resource-rich–those who mine Africa’s land and peoples to power global currency.
In the end, this film needs to be experienced on its own terms. Put differently: this is cinema as an ecological gift to the dispossessed. Generously creative and unafraid, Neptune Frost seeks to reclaim technology for progressive political ends. (105 min)
