The 3rd Annual Noblesville Interdisciplinary Creativity Expo (NICE) is in October and our first creative workshop coming up on May 16.
This workshop focuses on the Harlem Renaissance, Jazz, Jazz Poetry, allegory, anthropomorphism, and other exciting inspirations from two of our selections, Animal Farm and the poem Harlem.
The second workshop in August focuses on two other selections.
NICE is one of the annual Signature Events at Logan Street Sanctuary. The brainchild of author Sarah E. Morin and artist/author Alys Caviness-Gober, NICE offers artists of all kinds the opportunity to create artwork inspired by each year’s four selected classic literary passages.
This year’s selections are from: Animal Farm (George Orwell), All Quiet on the Western Front (Erich Maria Remarque), Harlem (Langston Hughes), and Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl (Anne Frank). Our two-night NICE event is an “anything goes” artistic expo ~ participants share their inspired creations ~ music, art, poetry, dance, performance, sculpture, and anything else.
They usually host a couple workshops in the months leading up to the two-night NICE event (Oct 6, 7), and their first workshop is May 16, focusing on the Harlem Renaissance, Jazz, Jazz Poetry, allegory, anthropomorphism, and other exciting inspirations from Animal Farm and the poem Harlem.
