SUMMARY:Lunch Break Live-Cara Jean Wahlers
DESCRIPTION:Wahlers is an Indianapolis based singer-songwriter and performer. Her fondness for folk music from the 60s and 70s gave her a sturdy understanding of storytelling\, and she’s taken those cues to develop her own unique style of writing – a revealing balancing act of personal experience and inevitable human truth.\nShe has released an album called “Goodnight Charlotte” withcollaborator and cellist Grover Parido and plays in the Indianapolis and surrounding areas both solo and as a duo. \nSPARK is a partnership with Downtown Indy\, the City of Indianapolis\, and the Indiana War Memorials Commission — and funded by the Capital Improvements Board. It is a continuation of our work last year and in 2015 on the Circle.\nAt Big Car\, we approach our work at the Circle as a site- and community-specific socially engaged art and creative placemaking project. The SPARK on the Circle pop-up park was collaboratively designed with Indianapolis-based Merritt Chase to be a restorative public place where people of all walks of life can relax\, play\, socialize\, and engage with art and artists in the heart of our city.

SUMMARY:Circle Side Chats with Deedee Davis
DESCRIPTION:The Magic Circle \n In October of 1900\, the Fall Festivities Society of Indianapolis promoted a week-long carnival with its central focus being the Magic Circle. Monument Circle was transformed with a dizzying array of attractions\, parades\, performers and animals all in the glow of “electric illuminations.” Yet\, despite all the enchantment\, the Magic Circle Carnival was a one-time marvel in Indianapolis’ history. \nBio: Deedee Davis is a Herron-Morton resident with an interest in Indianapolis history\, specifically historic residential architecture and Greenlawn Cemetery. She oversees digital collections for the Herron School of Art Library at IUPUI. \nCircle Side Chats is in partnership with Indiana Humanities. Indiana Humanities is a statewide nonprofit that infuses the humanities into our daily lives. We do this by providing grants\, convening discussions\, uplifting humanities scholars\, spotlighting humanities organizations and activities\, and creating our own programs that help Hoosiers think\, read and talk. \nSPARK is a partnership with Downtown Indy\, the City of Indianapolis\, and the Indiana War Memorials Commission — and funded by the Capital Improvements Board. It is a continuation of our work last year and in 2015 on the Circle. \nAt Big Car\, we approach our work at the Circle as a site- and community-specific socially engaged art and creative placemaking project. The SPARK on the Circle pop-up park was collaboratively designed with Indianapolis-based Merritt Chase to be a restorative public place where people of all walks of life can relax\, play\, socialize\, and engage with art and artists in the heart of our city.

SUMMARY:Amulet Making with Rachel Leah Cohen
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the Jewish diaspora\, people have created small pouch amulets to hold anything with protective energy and value. These are often made with everyday materials already on hand: medicinal plants\, salt\, metal\, stones\, and symbolic objects. The recipes and the names for these amulets vary by place. In Ladino-speaking Sephardic communities\, they are called “bulsika” and in Yiddish-speaking Ashkenazi communities\, “baytelech.” The ingredients connect us to our ancestors\, the environment\, and the places we live. The pouch can be worn on the body\, kept in a pocket\, or hung up in the home. Come make an amulet for yourself or as a gift for someone else\, as an embodied ritual of care\, connection\, and protection.\nAbout: Rachel Leah Cohn is a visual artist and educator based in Indianapolis. Her muliti-disciplinary practice is concerned with themes of communication\, mythology and rituals. She exhibits her work internationally and teaches at Ball State University in Muncie\, IN.\nSPARK is a partnership with Downtown Indy\, the City of Indianapolis\, and the Indiana War Memorials Commission — and funded by the Capital Improvements Board. It is a continuation of our work last year and in 2015 on the Circle.\nAt Big Car\, we approach our work at the Circle as a site- and community-specific socially engaged art and creative placemaking project.
