THE DR. ROBERT L. BRANDT JR. FAMILY GALLERY
THE IRA & SUSAN THOMSEN FAMILY GALLERY

SEP 6 – DEC 21, 2024

Dayton native, Curtis Mann, returns home to present an experimental new body of work inspired by reflections on his childhood attending Parochial schools, his mother’s Catholic funeral services this past May, and the challenges he faced hiding and then embracing his atheism. Using a mixture of personal family photographs, found, and AI-generated images, Mann has cut and affixed them to shards of glass to create sculptural collages. The work presents us with questions about what a photograph is, about the precarious space between the image and the object, and about the larger ideas of absolute faith, its teachings, and leaders. The work also serves as a love letter to his mother and his own feelings of mortality. Curated by Jeffrey Cortland Jones.
Mann is a graduate of the University of Dayton, where he worked under the mentorship of Sean Wilkinson, whose work is on view in the companion exhibition, Flora, also on view. His work has been exhibited widely, most notably at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, France; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago.

THE MITOSIS GALLERY

SEP 6 – DEC 21, 2024

Wilkinson’s ongoing series of photographs, Flora (2020-2024) are the artist’s response to the exuberant vitality of plants, their thrusting and thriving, their boundless energy and raw power, their elegance and grace, their constant changing, and their utter disregard for anything to do with the human world. Photographed over many seasons at Dayton’s Five Rivers MetroParks, Wilkinson brings attention to change, the overlooked, the undisturbed, and how profoundly meditative life can be. Curated by Jeffrey Cortland Jones.
Wilkinson is a Distinguished Service Professor and Professor Emeritus at the University of Dayton, where he served as chair of the Department of Visual Arts and as the Graul Endowed Chair in Arts and Languages. He is the recipient of several Ohio Arts Council and Montgomery County Fellowships among many other awards and prizes. His work has been widely exhibited and housed in over twenty-five significant collections.

Capitol Fools
2024-09-28 19:30 | Victoria Theatre, 138 N. Main St., Dayton, OH, 45402, United States
What happens when Washington, D.C.’s premier, political satire group – the Capitol Steps – call it quits after nearly 40 years? Most folks would agree that it was a great run, and the story would end there.
But an intrepid group of cast members and a co-writer would not go quietly into that good night. This band of fools reflected on a world without musical, political satire, and didn’t like what they saw. And just like that the CAPITOL FOOLS were born.
While foolish enough to embark on this new journey, they were smart enough to not reinvent the wheel. Fast-paced, laugh out loud show? Check. Equal opportunity offenders? Check. Skewering both sides of the aisle? Check. If a “Steps-style show” is wrong, they don’t want to be right.
The CAPITOL FOOLS hold up a mirror to our crazy political culture, providing hilarious song parodies and foolish reflections that continue to inspire belly-laughter. Audiences will continue to see cast members from past seasons of the Capitol Steps performing all the beloved bits, the mind-boggling backward talking spoonerisms, break-neck costume changes, over-the-top impressions, and all-new song parodies reflecting the day’s news. They will give you a memory that will last a lunch time. The spirit, irreverence and DNA of the Capitol Steps lives on with the CAPITOL FOOLS!

Steinholding Competition
2024-09-29 14:00 | The Dayton Art Institute, 456 Belmonte Park N, Dayton, OH, 45405, United States
The Dayton Art Institute (DAI) will host its annual Oktoberfest celebration, presented by Miller Lite, on the museum grounds from September 27 to September 29. This year, the festival will hold its first Steinholding Competition on Sunday, September 29, 2024, at 2 p.m. in front of the main museum entrance

Masskrugstemmen, or beer Steinholding, is a relatively new sport in America, but its popularity has quickly grown. During this traditional Bavarian strength contest, competitors hold a full one-liter beer stein (or Masskrug in German) out in front of their bodies with a straight arm parallel to the ground. Competitors hold the stein up as long as possible, and the winner is the last person holding with good form. The glass stein weighs approximately 5 pounds when full.

For the first year, the DAI will bring this longstanding sport to their Oktoberfest celebration as an official U.S. Steinholding Association qualifying event. The DAI’s inaugural Steinholding competition will begin with the women’s category competition, followed by the men’s. There is no cost to compete; however, all competitors must have valid admission to the Oktoberfest festival and register for the competition at www.daytonartinstitute.org/oktoberfest-steinholding-competition. Winners from both the men’s competition and the women’s competition will be eligible to compete in the U.S. Steinholding Association Ohio State Championships, held on Saturday, October 12, 2024, at Moerlein Lager House in Cincinnati.

The U.S. Steinholding Association was founded in 2015 with the goal to build a central informational source for athletes everywhere to discover the sport. Quickly, the association has grown and spread across the country as it has continued to expand its services. Those interested in learning more about the U.S. Steinholding Association and the rules of Steinholding can access more information at www.ussteinholding.com.

Advance general admission tickets for Oktoberfest (Saturday/Sunday) are $8 adults, $5 seniors and youth (ages 7–18). Tickets purchased at the gate are $10 adults, $7 seniors and youth. Children 6 and under are free. Guests may purchase a weekend pass, allowing them to attend the festival on both Saturday and Sunday at a discounted price of $15. Advance General Admission tickets may be purchased online at www.daytonartinstitute.org/oktoberfest or at the Dayton Art Institute during regular museum hours.

Justin Willman: Illusionati Tour
2024-09-29 19:00 | Victoria Theatre, 138 N. Main St., Dayton, OH, 45402, United States
JUSTIN WILLMAN: ILLUSIONATI TOUR is an interactive evening of magic, comedy and mind-control for the whole family. Prepare to join a secret society of wonder where the only conspiracy theories are about how the hell he does these things.
Justin Willman wants to melt your brain while making you laugh. He’s best known as the star and creator of the hit Netflix series “Magic For Humans” and “The Magic Prank Show with Justin Willman.” But you may recognize him from one of his many television appearances (“The Tonight Show,” “The Today Show,” “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” “Conan”). Or maybe you know his work as a host (“Baking Impossible;” “Cupcake Wars;” “Win, Lose or Draw”). Or maybe he’s the child magician you hired in suburban St. Louis in the ‘90s. If you don’t know Justin, he’s a magician and comedian who’s mastered the art of turning cynics into believers (or at least getting them to laugh).
Justin is also a proud father, a loving husband, and has zero experience as a licensed boat mechanic (that’s a different Justin Willman).

Kintsugi Breast Cancer Photo Exhibit
2024-09-30, 2024-10-01 | Dayton Metro Library – Main Library, 215 E. Third Street, Dayton, OH, 45402
Dayton Metro Library will host the Kintsugi Breast Cancer Photo Exhibit in the Main Library’s Opportunity Space at St. Clair from Monday, September 30 through Friday, October 11, with a special reception on Thursday, October 3, from 5:30-7 pm in the Opportunity Space as well.

The exhibit features breast cancer survivors from the Dayton area, and patrons will be able to hear behind the scenes details about the exhibit at this reception, as well as survivors sharing their stories and experiences. Resources for those who may be experiencing breast cancer will also be available. Organizations on hand will include Breast Wishes; Pink Ribbon Good; Noble Circle; The Well; Center for Women’s Wellness; and Christina Siegel R.N., B.S.N., Tattoo Nipple Fairy.

The Kintsugi Breast Cancer Photo Exhibit was created by Carolyn Reveal, a two-time breast cancer survivor. Kintsugi is an ancient Japanese art that takes something broken and puts it back together using a precious metal, such as gold – thus an object’s breakage becomes part of its history, not something to disguise. Inspired by this art, Reveal and other survivors have used it as a healing tool.

Patrons who visit this exhibit will see how breast cancer has been used to create something stronger and more beautiful and are reminded that this exhibit may include personal and sensitive images and text.

For fans of the Julia Quinn Bridgerton novel series, Dayton Metro Library is the place to be. A Night in Conversation with Julia Quinn will be held on Tuesday, October 1, from 6-7 pm in the Main Library’s Eichelberger Forum, or from the comfort of a location patrons may choose.

During her virtual visit to DML, Quinn will discuss the significance of public libraries, the right to read, banned books, and the concept of a book sanctuary, which DML is proud to be.

Quinn is the 2024 National Ambassador for EveryLibrary, whose mission is to “help public, school, and college libraries win funding at the ballot box, ensuring stable funding and access to libraries for generations to come.” They “support grassroots groups across the country who defend and support their local library against book banning, illicit political interference, and threats of closure.”

Quinn will visit DML virtually, so patrons can either register to participate in a “watch party,” at the Main Library, with the possibility to engage in a brief Q&A session, or they can register to participate in a “view only” experience from home or another location outside of the Library.

Quinn is the author of the many titles within her Bridgerton novel series, which has become a wildly popular TV show on Netflix.

Registration is required for adults to participate in either the “watch party” or the “view only” options. For more information and to register, visit DaytonMetroLibrary.org or call the Library’s Ask Me Line at 937.463.2665.
