SUMMARY:2019 Members' Show
DESCRIPTION:Krasl Art Center (KAC) is proud to present the theme of Resiliency for the 2019 Members’ Show from December 6 – January 20. Each year\, members are invited to submit one new artwork of their making addressing the current year’s exhibition theme. Continuing with KAC’s current exhibition (on view thru December 1)\, Resiliency is defined as the process of adapting well in the face of adversity\, trauma\, tragedy\, threats and even stress – such as family and relationship problems\, serious health problems\, or workplace and financial stresses. This exhibition is underwritten by Chemical Bank. \nThis continuation of KAC’s current exhibition\, Resiliency\, was inspired by dialogue between KAC and Spectrum Health Lakeland (SHL). In 2016\, SHL completed a Community Health Needs Assessment in which mental health emerged as the most urgent need throughout Berrien County. The same year\, KAC committed to inspiring meaningful change and strengthening the community through visual arts as its new mission. Combining KAC’s expertise in art\, and SHL’s expertise in wellness\, both exhibitions represent the collaborative effort to improve individual lives and community in our area.  \n\nMark you Calendar! \nMEMBERS’ SHOW ARTWORK DROPOFF & CRITERIA \nSUNDAY\, DECEMBER 1\, 11 AM – 5 PM\nMONDAY\, DECEMBER 2\, 11 AM – 8 PM \nOPENING NIGHT FRIDAY\, DECEMBER 6\, 5:30 – 8 PM\nJoin KAC for the biggest opening of the year!

SUMMARY:In the Gallery - Lines with Power and Purpose: Editorial Cartoons
DESCRIPTION:In an age of memes\, satire and political polarization\, Lines with Power and Purpose: Editorial Cartoons illustrates historical battles amid politics and popular opinion. Included in this exhibition are six Pulitzer Prize winners for editorial cartooning\, among others. The collection has been culled from the Melton Gallery at the University of Central Oklahoma\, which has housed the cartoons for more than three decades. \nIt represents a bygone era when printed matter was the status quo and cartoonists were part of the newsroom staff. Featuring fifty-one original editorial cartoons from metropolitan newspapers in the United States\, the exhibition spans across two world wars and the great depression. It illustrates discontent with the US government\, presidential elections\, and daily work-related battles with dualistic intentions: to provide welcomed comic relief as well as shape opinion. \nFree & Open to the Public. A Program of ExhibitsUSA\, a national division of Mid-America Arts Alliance and The National Endowment for the Arts \n\nMark your Calendar! \nOPENING NIGHT FRIDAY\, JANUARY 31\, 5:30 – 8 PM\nJoin us for art\, music\, small bites provided by Bistro on the Boulevard\, and a cash bar featuring Lake Michigan Vintners and The Livery microbrewery. \nCOFFEE WITH THE CURATOR WEDNESDAY\, FEBRUARY 5\, 12 PM\nWalk through the galleries and learn about the art on view with KAC Deputy Director\, Tami Miller
