Exhibit: The Artistic Life of Aka Pereyma
2024-03-06, 2024-03-07, 2024-03-08, 2024-03-09 | The Dayton Art Institute, 456 Belmonte Park N, Dayton, OH, 45405, United States
Aka Pereyma’s art, unconventional and visionary, demonstrates a highly personal means of expression. Weaving folk-art traditions with modern artistic styles, Pereyma produced art that expressed her strong ties to her Ukrainian heritage. “I think it is my duty to introduce to the world my Ukrainian culture,” she stated. This exhibition brings together works from throughout her career, from the early 1960s into the 21st century. Not tied to a single medium, Pereyma made paintings, drawings, wood and metal sculptures, needlework, woodblock prints, ceramics and exquisitely intricate designs on pysanky eggs. Recurring themes include Ukrainian folk songs, depictions of birds to represent her love of nature, Adam and Eve (along with leaves and eggs) to symbolize men and women. The works tell stories, often through surreal, densely filled ornamentation. “More is more,” was a favorite saying. A celebration of a local artistic legend, this exhibition will highlight Pereyma’s love of color and bold design.

Discovery: Cenicienta – A Bilingual Cinderella Story
2024-03-08 09:30, 2024-03-08 11:30 | Victoria Theatre, 138 N. Main St., Dayton, OH, 45402, United States
Ten-year-old Belinda is a budding poet and loves to tell stories, but when she’s stuck in the basement preparing for a party upstairs that her stepmother and stepsisters will host, she’ll have to get creative. Belinda re-enacts the classic tale of Cinderella, using whatever objects are at her disposal: napkins, teapots, and doilies, to name just a few. With these everyday items, a healthy dose of imagination, and a love of poetry passed down by her father, Belinda imagines a bigger world for herself. She must learn to stand up for herself and take charge of her life and dreams. This captivating bilingual performance is a modern spin on the beloved fairy tale and tackles cultural heritage, family, and the power of language.

A Season for Nonviolence is a national 64-day educational, media, and grassroots campaign dedicated to demonstrating that non-violence is a powerful way to heal, transform, and empower our lives and our communities. The purpose of this event is to promote and spread the principles of nonviolence to create a more inclusive, understanding, and compassionate society, ultimately helping to bridge the social divide in communities across America.
In January 2024 , representatives from the King, Gandhi, Scott and Mandela families are set to visit the International Peace Museum for a special series of events. This juncture holds the potential for a transformative moment—one that embodies strength, introspection, and a call to action in the pursuit of love, nonviolence, and peace. The coming together of these influential families to inaugurate the 2024 Season of Nonviolence carries profound symbolism. It sends a resounding message to our nation that peace is indispensable for the well-being of all, and its significance can endure for generations to come.
