Darker the Night, Brighter the Stars

Performing Arts In a small town in far Northern Maine, young people are wishing on shooting stars and wondering what’s to come. Darker the Night, Brighter the Stars is a hopeful, funny, sad and inspiring collection of short plays about love, loss – and learning that there is light even when it’s really, really dark. “If Cariani’s Almost, Maine caught the bittersweet humor of falling in love, Darker the Night, Brighter the Stars asks: What happens when we look up and wonder if the universe is paying attention?” – Chronogram Preview performance, November 5 // 7 p.m. November 6, 7, 12, 13, 14 // 7 p.m. November 8, 14, 15 // 2 p.m. General Admission, $22 Faculty/Staff/Alumni, $19, Senior (55+), $19, Students, $17 Seating is reserved.

Art Exhibit

Art Inflection brings together a series of works by Amanda Rybicki and Michael Rybicki, inspired by intersections of subjective realities, memory, and distorted experience. Interactive, analog sculptures explore how inputs derive changes, repetitive loops, or erosion. Mechanical systems with visible components driven by the viewer directly cause degradation, separation, or exhaust supply. Objects and jewelry explore elements of distortion. Subtle changes to form, pattern and texture invoke adaptations of autobiographical memory and shared reality, questioning ideas of authenticity and revision.
