Extra Credit Opportunity #1

DATE:
 
Tuesday, January 20, 2015 - 6:00pm 
LOCATION:
 
Temple Contemporary 
Temple Contemporary is pleased to present the book launch for SEPTA Posters: Collector’s Edition. Printed with our own Publication Studio, the Collector’s Edition brings together five zines that feature Beth Heinly’s trademark black and white line work. Drawing on a tradition of culture hacking and subverting advertising images, Heinly emphasizes and exposes the subtle and not-so-subtle racism, classism, and sexism in advertisements found in Philadelphia’s public transit spaces. Arts writer and artist Whitney Kimball will lead the dialogue with Heinly about her work. 

    Thursday Jan 15 @ PMA

    Class will meet inside the West entrance (not the side with the Rocky steps) of the PMA at 1:00 sharp. Please find Erica immediately to check in.
    It is a bit tricky to get to the PMA from Temple. Your best bets are driving and parking somewhere in Fairmount, Uber, or bike down Fairmount. You can take the 23 bus to the 43 bus if you have more than 30 minutes to get there.

    Tomorrow I will share the cell # list so you can begin to carpool if necessary.
