DESCRIPTION:6pm ET | 5pm CT | 4pm PT\nWe are delighted to present Monuments & Memorials: Then & Now\, a three part series about the history\, context and creation of public monuments and memorials. \nThis first panel will introduce milestones and controversies of past memorials and monuments. We will hear from Professor Harriet F. Senie\, Professor of Art History at C.U.N.Y. and its Graduate Center\, who will offer her perspective on The Evolution of Monuments: Paradigms and Underlying Issues based on her 30 years of experience teaching\, writing and participating on national selection commissions in the field of public art.

What have we seen? Whose stories will we now tell? Who will decide? Who will provide funding? What visions do artists now imagine for the future? A third panel in September will wrap up the series with a focus on the Preservation of Public Monuments & Sacred Spaces at Home & Abroad. We hope you will join us for all three! \nWe also look forward to sharing more information on an upcoming walking tour of Harlem with Cathie Behrend that will highlight monuments and memorials in the neighborhood\, including Alison Saar’s “Swing Low: Harriet Tubman Memorial” and the Frederick Douglass Sculpture and Water Wall.

For each project\, she amasses vast collections of a particular object—prescription pill bottles\, sports trophies\, sweaters—which are often sourced through donations from individuals in a participating community.

Distinguished by her meticulous\, labor-intensive process\, and her engagement of community\, Shin’s arresting installations reflect individuals’ personal lives as well as collective issues that we face as a society. \nShin attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in 1999 and received a BFA and MS from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn.

SUMMARY:Virtual | Professional Empowerment: Repatriation of Cultural Heritage w/ Leila Amineddoleh
DESCRIPTION:12pm ET | 11am CT | 9am PT\nPlease join us for a discussion with Leila Amineddoleh\, internationally recognized expert on art and cultural heritage crime and law and Founder of Amineddoleh & Associates\, LLC on the topic of repatriation of cultural heritage. \nFor centuries\, sought-after art objects and antiquities have been subject to high-profile ownership disputes. From the smuggling of religious artifacts out of the Holy Land to Hitler’s extensive looting of artistic property\, cultural objects have been targeted by rapacious collectors and leaders. The British Museum’s ownership of the Parthenon Marbles is perhaps the best-known cultural heritage debate\, yet legal battles are often not the focus of such intense public scrutiny. The presentation will examine antiquities disputes\, including a discussion of the laws that regulate ownership of cultural heritage and the evolution of the art market. \nArtTable’s Professional Empowerment program series invites experts to share their professional experiences\, knowledge and skills. Each session presents an opportunity to engage with and learn more about a topic\, issue or skill that directly impacts the professional lives of our members. If you have a topic or idea for a Professional Empowerment program\, email us at programs@arttable.org! \nAdmission \n\nNon-Members – $15\nArtTable Members – $10\nArtTable Circle Members – Free\nMembers may bring an additional guest for $5\n\nNot a member?

SUMMARY:Virtual | Artist Talk with Shahzia Sikander
DESCRIPTION:12pm ET | 11am CT | 9am PT\nArtTable’s Artist Talk series is made possible by the Pollock Krasner Foundation. Originally formatted as in-person Artist Breakfasts\, ArtTable has moved all programming into the virtual realm during the pandemic. Please join us for a virtual Artist Talk with Shahzia Sikander. \nShahzia will talk about individual works she created from 1988 to 2003\, elaborating on the evolution of her unique visual lexicon as she negotiated a language between the pictorial traditions of Central and South Asia and contemporary practices\, through the lens of her experience from Pakistan to the US as an immigrant pre and post 9/11 and how that period’s shifting socio-political culture shaped her broader practice. \nAdmission \n\nNon-Members – $10\nArtTable Members – $5\nArtTable Circle Members – Free\nMembers may bring an additional guest for $5\n\nHow to take part: \n\nClick here to Register for this program.\nFollowing registration you will receive call-in information in the form of a ZOOM link.\nBefore joining a Zoom meeting on a computer or mobile device\, you can download the Zoom app from the Download Center and select the “Zoom Client for Meetings” option.

Register anyway to receive a recording after! \nAccessibility: Please note that this program will offer live closed captioning. If you require additional accommodations\, please email programs@arttable.org. \n\nAbout Shahzia Sikander\nPioneering Pakistani-American artist Shahzia Sikander is one of the most influential artists working today. Sikander is widely celebrated for expanding and subverting pre-modern and classical Central and South-Asian miniature painting traditions and launching the form known today as neo-miniature. By bringing traditional and historical practice into dialogue with contemporary international art practices\, Sikander’s multivalent and investigative work examines colonial archives to readdress orientalist narratives in western art history. Interrogating ideas of language\, trade\, empire\, and migration through imperial and feminist perspectives Sikander’s paintings\, video animations\, mosaics and sculpture explore gender roles and sexuality\, cultural identity\, racial narratives\, and colonial and postcolonial histories. \nSikander earned a B.F.A. in 1991 from the National College of Arts in Lahore\, Pakistan. Her seminal thesis work\, The Scroll (1989–1990) which initiated the start of the neo-miniature movement\, garnered awards\, exhibitions and press\, as well as led to increased enrollment in the NCA’s miniature painting department. Subsequently\, Sikander was appointed as a lecturer in miniature painting at the school. The artist then moved to the United States to pursue an M.F.A. at the Rhode Island School of Design from 1993 to 1995; from 1995 to 1997\, she participated in the Glassell School of Art’s CORE Program at The Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston. A recipient of a MacArthur Fellowship (2006) and the State Department Medal of Arts (2012)\, Sikander’s innovative work has been exhibited and collected internationally. \nShahzia Sikander will be the subject of a traveling exhibition titled Shahzia Sikander: Extraordinary Realities. The exhibition will open at The Morgan Library in New York in June 2021\, followed by the RISD Museum in Providence\, Rhode Island in November 2021\, and then the MFA Houston in Texas in Spring 2022. On the occasion of these exhibitions\, there will be a major new monograph printed. Extraordinary Realities is an exhaustive examination of Sikander’s work from 1987 to 2003\, charting her early development as an artist in Lahore and the United States\, and foregrounding her critical role in bringing miniature painting into dialogue with contemporary art. Edited by Jan Howard and Sadia Abbas\, with contributions by Gayatri Gopinath\, Faisal Devji\, Kishwar Rizvi\, Sadia Abbas\, Jan Howard\, Vasif Kortun\, Dennis Congdon\, Bashir Ahmed\, Rick Lowe\, and Julie Mehretu. \n  \nThis program is generously supported by the Pollock-Krasner Foundation. The Pollock-Krasner Foundation has been a leader in providing grants enabling emerging and established artists to focus on their work. Funding helps artists to create new work\, acquire art supplies\, rent studio space\, and prepare exhibitions. The Foundation also provides grants to organizations that directly engage with artists\, such as artist residency programs. Please visit www.pkf.org for more information. \nThank you to Julia P.

SUMMARY:Virtual | Luise Kaish and Women Artists in America\, with Gail Levin
DESCRIPTION:12pm ET | 11am CT | 9am PT\nPlease join us for a discussion with Gail Levin\, Distinguished Professor of Art History\, American Studies\, and Women’s Studies at the City University of New York. Levin is Judy Chicago’s and Lee Krasner’s biographer\, and an acknowledged authority on Edward Hopper\, having written his catalogue raisonné\, his biography\, and many other publications. She is the editor and author of Theresa Bernstein: A Century in Art; a co-editor of Ethics and the Visual Arts; as well as contributor to the recently published monograph Luise Kaish: An American Art Legacy. Levin will speak about the work of pioneering artist Luise Kaish\, in the context of the history of women artists in America. \nLuise Clayborn Kaish (1925–2013) was a pioneer. A key figure in the New York art scene of the late 20th century\, her multidisciplinary practice and process-oriented work spanned a range of mediums\, materials\, techniques\, and themes. The strength and breadth of her work—monumental sculptures in bronze\, oil paintings\, watercolours\, lithographs\, collage—and the prestigious awards and fellowships she received set her apart as an early female leader in the visual arts. Dedicated to absorbing world cultures through travel and research\, Kaish studied a broad range of subjects from architecture\, design\, and engineering to spiritualism\, metaphysics\, and the cosmos. Through her wide-ranging practice\, she explored the spaces and connections between material\, natural\, and spiritual worlds. The publication Luise Kaish: An American Art Legacy celebrates her immense talent\, highly individual point of view\, far- reaching influence\, pursuit of the sublime\, and passion for life. \nAdmission \n\nNon-Members – $10\nArtTable Members – $5\nArtTable Circle Members – Free\nMembers may bring an additional guest for $5\n\nHow to take part: \n\nClick here to Register for this program.\nFollowing registration you will receive call-in information in the form of a ZOOM link.\nBefore joining a Zoom meeting on a computer or mobile device\, you can download the Zoom app from the Download Center and select the “Zoom Client for Meetings” option.

SUMMARY:Virtual | Fierce Poise: Helen Frankenthaler and 1950s New York
DESCRIPTION:2pm ET | 1pm CT | 11am PT\nJoin us for a discussion with Alexander Nemerov\, author of Fierce Poise: Helen Frankenthaler and 1950s New York\, and Sarah Kirk Hanley\, an independent prints and editions expert and critic based in the New York area\, who is currently writing an essay for the Dulwich Picture Gallery for their Fall exhibition of woodcuts by Helen Frankenthaler. \nDr. Nemerov’s biography of Frankenthaler encompasses her life and work beginning with her college years at Bennington\, where Nemerov’s father was her English teacher\, and Clement Greenberg\, her first significant romantic partner\, gave seminars in Art history and organized exhibitions. Nemerov concentrates his text on Frankenthaler of the 1950s which\, Karen Wilkin’s review of the book writes\,” she was notably strong and inventive\, almost from the start at a time when artists were expected to spend years maturing before their work was considered to be worthy of attention.” Nemerov acknowledges her importance as an Ab-ex painter and also writes about Freudian sources of her lifetime romantic relationships. There is a great deal to unpack about this major abstract woman artist of the twentieth century. \nAdmission \n\nNon-Members – $15\nArtTable Members – $10\nArtTable Circle Members – Free\n\nHow to take part: \n\nClick here to Register for this program.\nFollowing registration you will receive call-in information in the form of a ZOOM link.\nBefore joining a Zoom meeting on a computer or mobile device\, you can download the Zoom app from the Download Center and select the “Zoom Client for Meetings” option.

SUMMARY:Virtual | Annual Leadership Series - The Precarious Position of Women in Leadership
DESCRIPTION:1pm PT / 2pm MT / 3pm CT / 4pm ET\nWomen-identifying leaders in the arts are stepping down or being fired in larger proportions to their male counterparts. The issue was further exacerbated in the year 2020 when women\, either by choice or circumstance\, continued to leave the workforce in greater numbers than men. However\, as the world began to reopen\, more and more women came into leadership positions at large-scale arts organizations and institutions. In 2020\, CultureType listed 54 Arts Leaders Who Took on New Appointments in 2020\, 43 of whom are women. This past year\, of approximately 75 new appointments to various leadership positions in the art world\, 62 of them have been women\, as noted by CultureType and ARTnews.  \nDespite the growing visibility of women in the art world\, issues still plague the industry\, such as the ongoing gender pay gap (as of now\, women continue to earn approximately 73 cents for every dollar that men earn; the number is even lower for women of color\, ranging from 55 to 62 cents for Latina\, Native American\, and Black women.)\, disparities in gender representation depending on operating budget (the majority of museums with budgets less than $15 million are run by a female rather than a male director; the reverse is true for museums with budgets of over $15 million\, where female representation decreases as budget size increases)\, and the glass cliff phenomenon (the idea of women being placed in leadership positions during periods of crisis or downturn\, when the chance of failure is highest\, but under the pretense of providing an exciting professional opportunity).  \nFor this year’s Annual Leadership Series\, we want to acknowledge and celebrate the incredible strides that women have made as leaders in the art world\, but we also want to look to the future and ask ourselves\, what still needs to be done\, and how can we ensure women always have a seat at the table? \nPlease join us for what is sure to be an enlightening and thought-provoking discussion with women-identifying leaders in the art world with various perspectives on the issues. We will address questions including: \n\nWhat do these phenomena mean for women in the workforce\, and particularly in the art world\, both women leaving the workforce in greater numbers and the incredible amount of women being promoted to leadership positions?\nHow do we advocate for women leaders from racially\, ethnically\, and socio-economically diverse backgrounds and reach greater gender parity in leadership roles? \nThe glass cliff is the phenomenon of women in leadership roles\, such as executives in the corporate world and female political election candidates\, being likelier than men to achieve leadership roles during periods of crisis or downturn\, when the chance of failure is highest. Is this a phenomenon that we may have recently witnessed\, with all of the significant appointments of woman-identifying leaders in the art world? Or are we finally\, truly on the path to equality? Do women continue to be more vulnerable to career displacement than men? \nWhat lessons have we learned\, and how can we ensure lasting change?\n\nThe panel will be moderated by Stephanie A. Stebich\, Director of the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington\, DC. Additional speakers include: \n\nMin Jung Kim\, Director\, Saint Louis Museum of Art\, St. Louis\, MO\nDorothy Kosinski\, Vradenburg Director and CEO of The Phillips Collection\, Washington DC\nMia Locks\, Independent Curator and Culture Worker\, Los Angeles\, CA\nDanyelle Means\, Executive Director\, Center for Contemporary Arts\, Santa Fe\, NM\nBrittany Webb\, Evelyn and Will Kaplan Curator of 20th-Century Art & the John Rhoden Collection\, Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art\, Philadelphia\, PA\n\nPlease join us after the discussion for 10-15 minutes of virtual networking in Zoom Breakout Rooms. ArtTable programs are a time for members and non-members to connect with old friends and meet new people\, both in-person and virtually. We hope you will stick around afterwards to discuss important themes from the conversation and talk about new ideas and insights. \nAdmission \n\nArtTable Members – $10 (ArtTable members may bring a guest for an additional $15)\nNon-Members – $25\n\nNot an ArtTable member? Join today! \n \n  \nCan’t make the program at this time? Register anyway to receive a recording after! \nAccessibility: Automatic closed captioning will be available for this program. Please email programs@arttable.org if you require additional accommodations. \n\nAbout the Speakers\nStephanie A.

SUMMARY:Virtual | Marcela Guerrero & Daisy Nam on Donna Huanca's exhibition at Ballroom Marfa
DESCRIPTION:9am PT / 10am MT / 11am CT / 12pm ET\nPlease join Marcela Guerrero\, Jennifer Rubio Associate Curator at the Whitney Museum of American Art\, and Daisy Nam\, Curator at Ballroom Marfa\, for a discussion on Donna Huanca’s exhibition ESPEJO QUEMADA\, on view at Ballroom Marfa through January 22\, 2022. The two will also discuss Guerrero’s work on influential recent exhibitions of contemporary art from Latin America\, including the exhibitions Pacha\, Llaqta\, Wasichay: Indigenous Space\, Modern Architecture\, New Art at the Whitney Museum of American Art and Radical Women: Latin American Art\, 1960-1985 at the Hammer Museum. \nDonna Huanca presents a series of new works commissioned by Ballroom Marfa in her exhibition ESPEJO QUEMADA. Huanca creates experiential installations that incorporate paintings\, sculptures\, video\, scent and sound. The profound experiences and memories of Huanca’s first visit to Marfa in 2005 inspired the work in the exhibition. The artworks draw on visual\, cultural\, and mythological cues informed by feminism\, decolonialism and the artist’s personal and familial histories\, while simultaneously engaging with the biodiversity\, geology\, and dark skies of Far West Texas. The sky was particularly striking for Huanca–animated with cosmic and extraterrestrial forces while also revealing the natural rhythms of the sun and moon. \nESPEJO QUEMADA\, Huanca’s first exhibition since the pandemic\, uses mirrors as formal and metaphorical devices to respond to changing conditions. The title\, which translates to “burnt mirror” in English and is purposefully feminized in Spanish\, alludes to Huanca’s feminist praxis. “Espejo Quemada” suggests reflections of the current moment\, portals to the past and future\, and catalysts for combustion and change. Click here to read more about the exhibition! \nAdmission \n\nArtTable Circle Members– Free\nAll other ArtTable Members – $10\nNon-Members – $15\nMembers may bring a guest for an additional $5.\n\nNot an ArtTable member? Join today! \n  \n \n  \nAccessibility: Please note that live closed captioning will be available for this program.

SUMMARY:Virtual | A Brief History of Digital Art\, Before and Beyond NFTs\, with Dr. Tina Rivers Ryan
DESCRIPTION:9am PT/ 10am MT / 11am CT / 12pm ET\nIf you’re curious to know more about the history of digital art before and beyond NFTs\, join Dr. Tina Rivers Ryan as she offers a brief survey of digital art since the 1960s. Her talk will emphasize digital art’s major artists\, practices\, and themes\, as well as the evolution of its relation to traditional arts institutions\, such as galleries and museums. \nNFTs have brought digital art into the spotlight\, but they also have cast a long shadow over the decades-long history of digital art that preceded them. Even the artistic projects that were made with and about blockchain technologies just five years ago seem to have been erased in the rush to hail this “revolutionary” development in contemporary art. \nAdmission \n\nArtTable Circle Members– Free\nAll other ArtTable Members – $5\nNon-Members – $15\nMembers may bring an additional guest for $5\n\nNot an ArtTable member? Join today! \nCan’t make the program at this time? Register anyway to receive a recording after! \n  \n \n  \nAccessibility: This program will offer automatic closed captioning services. If you require additional accommodations\, please email programs@arttable.org. \n\nAbout Dr. Tina Rivers Ryan\nTina Rivers Ryan is an Assistant Curator of modern and contemporary art at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo\, New York. Most recently\, she co-curated the exhibition Difference Machines: Technology and Identity in Contemporary Art\, which opened October 16th and runs through January 16th\, 2022. An art historian by training\, Ryan is a specialist in the history of art and technology since the 1960s and has written extensively on topics ranging from kinetic light environments to virtual reality. Over the past decade\, her work has appeared in publications from museums such as The Met\, the Walker Art Center\, and Pirelli HangarBicocca.

SUMMARY:Virtual | Reimagining Memorials and Memory\, with Judy Baca
DESCRIPTION:3pm PT/ 4pm MT / 5pm CT / 6pm ET\nJoin our conversation with Judy Baca\, Los Angeles-based artist\, educator\, scholar/activist\, community arts pioneer\, UCLA professor emeritus\, and founder of the Social and Public Art Resource Center (SPARCinLA). Judy has produced numerous murals in Los Angeles and elsewhere since the early 1970’s\, and is particularly renown for The Great Wall of Los Angeles (also known as The History of California). \n“I want to produce artwork that is beautiful and inspirational\, and beyond decorative.  I excavate public spaces to hear public voice\, and to create public consciousness about the presence of people who are often the majority of the population but are not represented in a visual way. By telling their stories I hope to give voice to those least heard and to visualize a more whole American story. I call this creating sites of public memory.” – Judy Baca \nThis program will highlight Baca’s artistic practice as a tool for both people and place. She will present several of her murals which dramatically document both told and untold American stories of the disenfranchised. Baca will also share her wisdom\, personal perspective\, and vast experience on how to effectively reimagine memorials and memory. Cathie Behrend\, ArtTable New York member who co-organized this series\, will introduce the program and speaker. There will be ample time for questions so come prepared with your inquiry about Memorials and Memory. \n  \n           \n \n  \nAdmission \n\nArtTable Circle Members– Free\nAll other ArtTable Members – $10\nNon-Members – $15\nMembers may bring an additional guest for $5\n\nNot an ArtTable member? Join today! \nCan’t make the program at this time? Register anyway to receive a recording after! \n  \n \n  \nAccessibility: This program will offer automatic closed captioning services. If you require additional accommodations\, please email programs@arttable.org. \n\nAbout Judy Baca\nOne of America’s leading visual artists\, Dr. Judith F. Baca\, grew up in Los Angeles and has been creating public art for more than four decades. In 1974\, Baca founded the City of Los Angeles’ first mural program which produced over 400 murals and employed thousands of local participants\, evolving into an arts organization known as the Social and Public Art Resource Center (SPARC). \nDr. Baca\, now Professor Emeritus\, was a University of California senior professor of Studio Art  (1980-96)\, founded UC’s Cesar Chavez Center for Interdisciplinary Studies in 1993\, and has long been a professor in UC’s Chicano/a Studies and World Cultures Department in UCLA’s School of Art and Architecture.  She continues to serve as SPARC’s artistic director\, and within the UCLA@SPARC Digital/Mural Lab\, now uses digital technology as she co-creates murals promoting social justice and participatory public art projects. Her honors include a 2003 Guggenheim Fellowship\, a 2015  Rockefeller Fellowship and over 50 awards from various community groups. Judy Baca’s artwork is included in the collections of The Smithsonian American Art Museum\, Hartford’s Wadsworth Atheneum\, New York’s Museum of Modern Art\, among others. The Lucas Museum of Narrative Art in L.A. has recently acquired The History of California archive; and currently\, the Museum of Latin American Art in Long Beach\, CA presents a major retrospective of Judy Baca’s practice. \nHer most well-known work\, ‘The Great Wall of Los Angeles\,’ created between 1976-1983\, runs for one-half mile in the Tujunga Wash\, a flood control channel of the Los Angeles River\, featuring images of California’s pre-history into the 1950’s. In 2017 it was named to the National Register of Historic Places. In 2021\, Baca and SPARC received a $5 million Andrew Mellon Foundation grant to extend The Great Wall’s imagery for another half mile to include narratives up to the present and develop further interpretive material. \n  \nThank you to Cathie Behrend\, former Deputy Director of New York’s Percent for Art Program and founder of VenturesinVision\, and Lori Shepard\, ArtTable member (New York Chapter)\, for organizing this program series. \n\nImages: \n\nPortrait of Judy Baca at the 2004 partial restoration of the Great Wall of Los Angeles.

SUMMARY:Virtual | Self-Mythology and the Unreliable Narrator in the Life & Times of Sam Francis
DESCRIPTION:11am PT/ 12pm MT / 1pm CT / 2pm ET\nPlease join Gabrielle Selz\, Jeremy Stone\, and Debra Burchett-Lere as they probe the self-mythologizing narratives of artists and personalities of the 20th Century. This talk will focus on discoveries Selz made in her new book\, Light on Fire\, the first comprehensive biography of Sam Francis.\n\nLight on Fire traces the extraordinary and ultimately tragic journey of a complex and charismatic artist who first learned to paint while encased for three years in a full-body plaster cast. Francis portrayed himself as a pilot who heroically crashed his plane in the Arizona desert; a story Selz reveals is a fabrication that was repeated by all the male historians who wrote about his illustrious career. For indeed\, Francis’s color-saturated paintings went on to fetch the highest prices of any living artist. His restless desire resulted in five marriages and homes on three continents. His entrepreneurial spirit led to the founding of MoCA\, Lapis Press\, a reforestation program\, and several nonprofits. Light on Fire captures the art\, life\, personality\, and talent of a man who sought to resolve in art\, the contradictions he couldn’t resolve in life.\n\nAdmission\n\n 	ArtTable Circle Members– Free\n 	All other ArtTable Members – $5\n 	Non-Members – $7\n\nNot an ArtTable member? Join today!\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\nAccessibility: Please email programs@arttable.org if you require specific accommodations. \n\n\n\nAbout the Speakers\nDebra Burchett-Lere brings a range of professional international art-world experiences as an author\, curator\, and executive director of the artist-endowed Sam Francis Foundation\, California.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED | Virtual | An ArtTable Friendsgiving\, with The Artisan's Palate
DESCRIPTION:3pm PT/ 4pm MT / 5pm CT / 6pm ET\nCome celebrate Friendsgiving with ArtTable and The Artisan’s Palate! We will be joined by founder and chef Christa Csoka and artist Melissa Herriott for a conversation about how The Artisan’s Palate came to be\, the importance of art\, food\, and community\, and the local arts scene in Charlotte\, North Carolina. We’ll also be making a specialty cocktail called “The Weight of the World\,” inspired by a series of paintings by Herriott that were on view at The Artisan’s Palate during her time as featured artist. See below for the ingredients so you can make the cocktail with us! \nAfter the discussion and drinks\, we’ll go into breakout rooms for a classic ArtTable networking session. \nRECIPE: The Weight of the World\nIngredients: \n\n1 ½ oz Reposado Tequila\n½ oz Mezcal\n1 oz Blood Orange Puree (Alternative: blood orange soda OR 1/2 oz orange juice + 1/2 oz grapefruit juice)\n½ oz Blood Orange Aperitif (vermouth) (Alternative: sweet vermouth)\n1 fresh lime\nSmoked Chili Bitters (Alternative: any bitters will work if smoked chili is unavailable) \nOrange Zest\nSal de Gusano (worm salt; or substitute with chili salt) (Alternative: just mix some salt and chili powder!)\n\nHow to make it: \nServe this cocktail in a Rocks Glass with a large ice cube. Stir all ingredients except bitters in a glass pitcher. Pour over your ice cube. Put in 3-4 dashes of bitters after the mix is in the glass (do not put these on the cube\, but around the edges). Put worm salt/chili salt on the ice cube and garnish with an orange zest on the glass. Voila! \nThis program is free for ArtTable members and $10 for non-members. Members are encouraged to bring a friend for an additional $10. \nNot an ArtTable member? Join today! \n  \n \n  \nAccessibility: Automatic closed captioning will be available for this program. Please email programs@arttable.org if you require additional accommodations.  \n\nAbout the Speakers\nOwner and chef Christa Csoka’s love for entertaining and passion for food began when she was a child\, helping her mother host dinners and events for officers and cadets at West Point. \nCsoka has over 30 years’ experience in the service industry\, including working as a chef at French restaurants in NYC and Chicago and catering in Austin\, New York\, and Charlotte. She has lived in and visited many cities all over the world\, all of which have given her a diverse culinary perspective and palate. After graduating from the French Culinary Institute in New York\, Christa moved to Charlotte in 2003 to be closer to family. Although she was not immediately immersed in the culinary world of Charlotte\, she kept her love of cooking alive by catering on weekends and special events as well as hosting many themed parties and events over the years. This would launch the idea of the Artisan’s Palate. The inclusion of art as part of a whole experience was always her passion and she envisioned a space in which food\, drinks\, music and art co-existed in harmony – and that is how The Artisan’s Palate came to be. \nMelissa Herriott is a Charlotte-based abstract artist and interior stylist working in multiple mediums. Her paintings are full of color\, texture\, and symbolism. Melissa is an award-winning artist\, featured in QC Exclusive Magazine and the KNOW Book of Women. Melissa’s hope is that her work sparks conversation\, inspires\, and allows you (if even for a moment) to get lost inside of it. \n\nAbout The Artisan’s Palate\nThe Artisan’s Palate is a restaurant\, art gallery and gathering space in the NoDa neighborhood of Charlotte\, North Carolina. It offers a unique menu of craft cocktails\, wine and share plates in a neighborly\, relaxed atmosphere with a focus on art and those who create it. \nOver the years the NoDa community has seen most of its galleries close\, but The Artisan’s Palate is working to change that. The space includes a gallery that features local artists monthly. Guests are introduced to immersive experiences\, crafted by Chef and Owner\, Christa Csoka. These experiences converge all five senses through food\, beverage\, art\, music and more based on each collection. \nThe Artisan’s Palate is an inclusive destination for its customers – from local coffee during the day\, to rustic-yet-refined plates and curated cocktails at night\, to savory and sweet brunch on Sunday. They also sell wine\, coffee\, and art in support of local artisans all within a creative\, community environment. \n\nImages: \n\nInterior shot of The Artisan’s Palate gallery\, featuring work by Melissa Herriott\nHeadshots provided by the speakers\nInterior shot of The Artisan’s Palate\, courtesy of The Artisan’s Palate

SUMMARY:Virtual | Artist Talk with Andrea Chung
DESCRIPTION:10am PT / 11am MT / 12pm CT / 1pm ET\nPlease join us for a virtual artist talk with Andrea Chung\, whose exhibition\, We Was Girls Together\, was recently presented at Tyler Park Presents in San Diego. \nWe Was Girls Together\, inspired by Toni Morrison’s book Sula\, is a series of large-scale collages that celebrates the relationships of black women in all their complexities and displays Chung’s gratitude for them. As Chung says\, “Our sisterhood\, our love for one another\, is not always visible to the unfamiliar\, nor should it always be.” Click here to read more about the exhibition. \nChung’s work has recently been featured in Prospect 4 (New Orleans) and the Jamaican Biennale (Kingston\, Jamaica)\, as well as the Chinese American Museum and California African American Museum in Los Angeles\, and the San Diego Art Institute. In 2017\, her first solo museum exhibition took place at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego\, You broke the ocean in half to be here. She has participated in national and international residencies\, including Headlands Center for the Arts and Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. Her work has been written about in the Artfile Magazine\, Artnet\, and Los Angeles Times\, as well as a number of academic essays looking at the subject of colonialism and slavery in the Caribbean.
