S&P Show and Song Night--with notes for end of semester‏

 

A Quilt by Harriet Powers (1837-1910), rural Georgia

S&P Show and Song night
potluck and song night
thursday december 5
plan to pin-up at 6pm sharp-- we'll open the show and have a toast at 7!
invite friends and relations!

IT"S IMPORTANT THAT EVERYONE SHOW UP AT 6PM. If we can get the room earlier (before 6), I'll let you know that week.

wine-- tony
cups, plates, utensils-- tony
food-- potluck  Aimée will organize email list and keep tabs with you
song sheets (and instruments)
invite friends who will enjoy doing the songs with us. that's the focus of the evening (along with some good food and libation!) It works best when the guests are into the music!!!

work--
bring several of your favorite projects--this is a "look-back" over the semester
give some thought to layout ahead of time so that you come ready to pin up.
class has 13 people with visual work--there are 14 panels, plus free-standing panels and south wall. that should be plenty of space.
I've asked joe gouig to stop in and help arrange the lights for even coverage of the walls
there will be a monitor for kouros' new film--and a "half-time show" for some songs by baylor and noor (A Stairwell Special)
if you need stands, pedestals, etc. see joe gouig in 103 BEFORE thursday evening

sing-along night  DO OUR SONGS
friends yes--but I need to know ahead of time on guest performers

evaluations--we'll fit these in, too

your digital notebookswe decided that everyone will re-work any "done too quick" posts--remember, the blogs are public--and your work reflects the class as a whole! good writing and good photos!
Also, I want you to add a last entry--write something about Songs & Places--what the course (the songs, the places, the history, the stories) have meant to you--how you feel you engaged them, how they changed you (or did you change them?) and maybe where they'll take you as we all "head down this long dusty road..."

Use this as your opportunity to put what you've done into perspective!

Due date: Tuesday, December 17.
Earlier is better for me, but take till the 17th if you need to. Semester ends December 20. Send me an email when your digital notebook is complete so that I'll know when to look.
