Late January Events @ the Halsey
Jan 22 [presentation] 3 - 4pm - Jules Shell, Foundation Rwanda
Jan 22 [artist lecture] 4 - 5pm - Jonathan Torgovnik Intended Consequences: Rwandan Children Born of Rape
Jan 22 [exhibition opening] 5 - 7pm - Intended Consequences: Rwandan Children Born of Rape & The Innocents: Casualties of the Civil War in Northern Ugandain the Halsey Gallery
The pairing of these exhibitions is intended to highlight humanitarian crises in two troubled African nations. In an effort to familiarize our audiences with aspects of history that do not often receive in-depth attention in conventional media, these exhibitions serve as examples of the College of Charleston's campus-wide commitment to the discussion of international issues. The Halsey Institute will be a drop off for Better World Books for the duration of the exhibition. Better World Books supports book drives and collects used books and textbooks through a network of over 1,800 college campuses and partnerships with over 2,000 libraries nationwide. So far, the company has converted more than 25 million donated books into $7.3 million in funding for literacy and education. In the process, they've also diverted more than 13,000 tons of books from landfills. The Halsey Institute's programming is funded in part by a major grant from the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc.

WCA - Regional News
After a brief hiatus, WCA Charleston is up-and-running.. We kicked off the fall with an environmentally-themed show, “Gaea, Goddess of the Earth.” The show ran from September 21 through October 31 at The Real Estate Studio in Charleston . Janice Rossman, a local gallery director, considered the framework of “earth personified” to curate the exhibition. Participating artists included Sandra Brett, Betsey Carter, Leigh Ann Davis, Stephanie Drawdy, Linda Elksnin, Laura Liberatore Szweda, and Lillian Trettin. Our October 20 meeting was a brainstorming session that helped us identify organization goals, including member services and outreach activities. Meetings for the remainder of the year are scheduled. Wcacharleston.blogspot.com continues to be a great source of information for members of the arts community. Finally, WCA Charleston joined Charleston Arts Coalition (CAC!). The goals of CAC! are to unite and sustain the greater Charleston Arts Community by acting as a forum for collaborating on projects, exchanging ideas, and hosting special events.

Charleston Arts Coalition -Creative Town Hall Recap
Greetings!
Thank you for attending the Creative Town Hall hosted by the Charleston Arts Coalition, in partnership with the Tate Center for Entrepreneurship at the College of Charleston. We hope you found inspiration, made new connections and gathered ideas.
If you were unable to attend, the survey results announced at the Town Hall are available on our website. There was wonderful response to the survey and so many relevant ideas, concerns, and needs were brought to light as a result.
Please take a few moments to look through the survey results and think about what and how they apply to you and how you can get involved in making the dreams and goals of the Charleston arts community a reality.
Creatively,
The Charleston Arts Coalition
