June 17, 2024
Join us at 6:30 pm at Freehold Art Gallery, 7 West Main St, Freehold Boro, 2nd floor, over CVS on Monday June 17, 2024
The Freehold Art Society will host Professor Edwardo Mungiello for an informative & entertaining lecture.
Our speaker is Professor Edoardo Mungiello, who will give a lecture called Old Wine New Skins. The lecture will will be a sort of biography based on intellectual and artistic influences and a type of skeleton key for artists and seekers of all ages to tap into what’s already there to illumine the path forward. How do we inform ourselves so our creations are emanations rather than struggles? What is a technique that works for you? Are we creating to purpose? How do we spend our leisure time? What is the past and how do we inform the future with it? Are our lives really our own? All these questions and more will be approached through a lens that Professor Mungiello uses to investigate his own artistic growth. Join us as we lovers and artists attempt to answer the big questions or at least to get something new for our own skins!
