SUMMARY:Social Alchemy Symposium-Emily St. John Mandel
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the online opening keynote of the Social Alchemy Symposium with author Emily St John Mandel who will discuss her work\, the pursuit of utopia\, the dystopia that can create for others. Even in the face of societal collapse\, we create spaces and art that bring us meaning\, comfort and reassurance.\n\nThe Social Alchemy Symposium is a participatory mini-conference happening online and in person in New Harmony\, Indiana April 10-13\, 2022.\nEach day is themed and focused on single days. The symposium is free to attend either virtually or in person. Donations are appreciated and can be made via the registration link.\n\nOur opening keynote by Emily St John Mandel is made possible by Indiana Humanities and New America.\n\nTickets must be reserved to receive the Zoom links for the symposium.\n\nAbout Emily St. John Mandel\nShe is the author of five novels\, most recently “The Glass Hotel.” Her novel “Station Eleven\,” which was a finalist for a National Book Award and the PEN/Faulkner Award\, won the 2015 Arthur C. Clarke Award\, the Toronto Book Award\, and the Morning News Tournament of Books\, and has been translated into 27 languages.\nA previous novel\, “The Singer’s Gun\,” was the 2014 winner of the Prix Mystere de la Critique in France. Her short fiction and essays have been anthologized in numerous collections\, including Best American Mystery Stories 2013. She is also a staff writer for The Millions.\nShe lives in New York City with her husband and daughter. Her next book\, “Sea of Tranquility\,” will be released in April 2022. Copies will be available for purchase at the in-person event.\n\n“I’m a big believer in people needing stories to help us process times when our reality is unstable\,” Somerville says. “That plays out in the show\, too. You come to a point when you can’t talk about things anymore. But when there’s no answer\, that’s when art’s most valuable. When the words we have don’t work anymore\, we can sing a folk song or put on a play. I’m a big believer in the functional\, pragmatic utility of art. It’s not just a fancy thing you go see at the museum\, but a thing we need that should be jammed into Maslow’s hierarchy of needs at a very\, very important rung.””–Patrick Somerville on Emily St. John Mandel’s Station 11.\n\n\nMore about the Symposium:\nThe Social Alchemy Symposium is a participatory mini-conference happening online and in person in New Harmony\, Indiana April 10-13\, 2022.\nTwice the site of utopian experiments in communitarian living\, New Harmony is now a town rich in beauty\, culture\, and history.

SUMMARY:New Harmony Community Conversation-Social Alchemy
DESCRIPTION:New Harmony residents are invited to our help plan for our reboot of Social Alchemy\, a series of events connecting New Harmony and Indianapolis! These meet ups in New Harmony invite residents to meet those involved in proposing in the project and become part of it.\nThis meeting we will discuss the symposium which is scheduled for April 10-13\, 2022.\n\nE-mail email hidden; JavaScript is required for the Zoom link. This meeting is at 6pm in New Harmony\, IN.\n\nWhy is this called Social Alchemy? In our research about New Harmony\, we discovered that Father George Rapp — founder of the Harmonists\, the first utopian experiment in New Harmony — studied alchemy and was trying to make gold and other precious commodities to fund his vision of utopia. Today\, with New Harmony already a successful town with much to offer (including events and public programs)\, this project and symposium combines all the assets of New Harmony: the people who live there\, the architecture\, art\, and food to celebrate and expand the town’s magic to Indianapolis and hopefully even further. We’re calling this mixture of everything Social Alchemy.\n\nNew Harmony\, Indiana brims with art\, history\, architecture\, and a strong sense of place. The impact of past and current efforts within this community have created a town that continues to represent the universal human condition.\n\nWhat can we in urban Indianapolis learn from rural New Harmony’s social alchemy? Tons. With support of Indiana Humanities and the Efroymson Family fund and our partners — University of Southern Indiana\, Indiana State Museum\, Historic New Harmony\, New Harmony Workingmen’s Institute Central Library\, and lots of individuals –– we will explore\, learn and share how the pursuit of utopia forms places and pursuits.\n\nWHY IS BIG CAR INVOLVED?\nWe’re fascinated by people who strive for utopia and by intentional communities: Past\, present\, and future. Our overarching goal for the Cruft Street Commons project in Garfield Park is to develop an arts-focused\, socially cohesive block. And a key inspiration is the southwestern Indiana town\, New Harmony — location of multiple and varied utopian experiments.\n\nTHE PROGRAM\nThis idea started with visits by Big Car Collaborative/Tube Factory artspace curator\, Shauta Marsh\, and artist and writer Jim Walker\, to New Harmony over the past several years and conversations with artist\, writer\, and philanthropist Jeremy Efroymson — who lives\, part-time\, in New Harmony — and former New Harmony Gallery of Contemporary Art director Garry Holstein. It is made possible by Indiana Humanities and The Efroymson Family Fund.\n\nWHAT WE’RE DOING:\n• An interdisciplinary exhibition at the New Harmony Gallery of Contemporary Art focused on New Harmony’s visionary civic leader and preservationist Jane Owen (1915–2010).\n• An exhibition at the Tube Factory about the history and art of New Harmony (designed to travel)\, with emphasis on Angel in the Forest and visual interpretations of this lyrical text.\n• A series of radio shows.\n• A symposium in April 2022 in New Harmony to include philosophers\, writers\, historians\, designers\, architects\, placemakers\, urban and rural city planners\, politicians\, and community organizers.\n• Two Tube Factory exhibitions by Native American artists Elisa Harkins and Wendy Red Star: both creative responses to their peoples’ forced dystopias\, with ideas for cultural renewal.\n\nTHE IMPACT\nThis project explores historical and contemporary examples of utopian experiments\, fictional utopias and dystopias\, and social design projects. It offers a deeper understanding of the relationship between the built environment and social good.\n\nPROJECT PARTNERS\nUniversity of Southern Indiana: As the administrator of both Historic New Harmony and the New Harmony Gallery\, USI is encouraging staff\, professors\, and students to participate in the project.\n\nHistoric New Harmony: HNH will host programs\, help to develop the exhibitions\, and help travel the New Harmony exhibition about after its Indianapolis debut.\nNew Harmony Gallery of Contemporary Art: The gallery will host the Jane Owen exhibition.\nIndiana State Museum: The museum will be assisting with research\, and help with didactics.\nPattern will be a promotional partner alongside Big Car’s low-power radio station 99.1 WQRT FM.

SUMMARY:Mass Ave Histories + Oddities Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we journey through the little-known histories and oddities of Mass Ave. Discover what makes Massachusetts Avenue one of the most well-liked streets in Indianapolis. This is the first walking tour of the season at that starts and ends at Lockerbie Marketplace! Led by creative writer Colin Dullaghan. \nFree and open to the public // All ages\nMEET at Lockerbie Marketplace (the green space next to Needler’s Fresh Market). We don’t walk if the weather is terrible. \nAbout Colin Dullaghan\nAn Indianapolis native\, Colin attended Ball State University\, earning a degree in Philosophy and then graduating without much idea what to do with it. His first job\, partially landed because a principal at Young & Laramore advertising liked his t-shirt\, was at 310 East Vermont. After intervening gigs in both Carolinas and contributing to NUVO and the Indianapolis Star\, Colin now works as Senior Writer at Borshoff\, just above Needler’s Fresh Market. From his desk he can just make out the top of the head of a 38-foot-tall mural of Kurt Vonnegut\, constantly reminding him to “Use the time of a total stranger in such a way that he or she will not feel the time was wasted.” \nBrought to you in partnership with Citimark Management and Gershman Partners\, Spark Placemaking and Big Car Collaborative. \nTo learn more about events at Lockerbie Marketplace\, visit https://www.bigcar.org/lockerbie/
