Find your photographic voice
Finding Your Photographic Voice
In this class we're going to delve deeper into our photography and the images we've been creating, to find the story and theme that unifies our work.
We will create a portfolio of your images that will represent your photographic voice. We will be creating new work through a series of assignments designed to challenge you and hone your skills technically, and creatively as we seek to discover what makes your photography unique.
This class is very assignment-focused, with much of our time spent discussing and reviewing students' work. This class assumes a working knowledge of camera functions (Aperture/ISO/Shutter Speed etc.) However, advanced knowledge is not necessary as this class is less technically focused.
Instructor: Spyros Heniadis
Saturday, February 27 - April 2 (no class on March 19)
6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Ages: 14 - Adult
Fee: $69

Quilter talk
CHRIS KIRSCH, PRIZE-WINNING QUILTER TO SPEAK AT WITTENBERG COMMUNITY CENTER
Chris Lynn Kirsch, prize-winning quilter, author, and teacher, will speak at the Wittenberg Community Center, 208 Vinal Street, on Saturday, February 4, at 1 PM. Her topic is “A Challenged Mind.” Join Ms. Kirsch as she takes you on a journey through her inspirations, crazy side trips and the fascinating quilts which have been created.
In the past, Ms. Kirsch’s tools of trade were the sterilized instruments of a dental hygienist. In 1987, she was dragged to a quilting class by her sister-in-law and came away enthusiastically addicted. She says, “I had no intention of becoming a quilter and yet, I discovered I loved all aspects of quilting—the stitchery, the collecting of antique quilts and even an appreciation of quilted art.”
Over time, she began designing her own pieces and a passion for art quilts evolved. Today her instruments of choice are sewing machines, scissors and a multitude of handy quilting gadgets. Ms. Kirsch stitches her magic from a log home in the woods of southeastern Wisconsin, Watertown.
In addition to creating her own award winning quilts, she finds as much fulfillment in sharing her passion with others through lectures, workshops, and leading quilting cruises.
Books by Ms. Kirsch will be available for sale. There is no admission fee; donations are welcomed.
The Walls of Wittenberg is pleased to bring this well known speaker to Wittenberg in conjunction with “The Art of the Quilter: II,” a juried quilt show at the WOWSPACE, 114 Vinal Street, downtown Wittenberg, Saturdays and Sundays, 11-3, through February 13. Please visit the show. Admire Ms. Kirsch’s wall hanging—“Vanishing Point”—which was given an Award of Excellence. Enjoy all the quilts and wall hangings, a riot of color and pattern with exquisite needle art. Don’t forget to vote for your favorite.

Presentation By Sharon Rotz
SHARON ROTZ, PRIZE-WINNING QUILTER , TO SPEAK AT WITTENBERG COMMUNITY CENTER
Sharon V. Rotz, prize-winning quilter, designer, and textile artist, will speak at the Wittenberg Community Center, 208 Vinal Street, Sunday, January 29, 1PM. Her topic is “From Grandmother’s Bed to Museum Walls,” a brief history of quilting as well as discussing a review of traditional blocks and techniques.
Ms. Rotz says, “From childhood, learning embroidery stitches from my mother and making my first skirt in 4-H, I have felt a close connection to fabric.” She pursued a degree in Home Economics Education, worked in the ready-made clothing industry, learned tailoring and dressmaking and spent many years making custom home décor. When she entered the quilting world, Ms. Rotz brought with her this varied background of skills.
Today she is a quilting teacher and speaker, an award winning quilter in state and national competitions, author, commissioned textile artist and pattern designer as well as an exhibitor in numerous show and competitions. She says, “Living in a wooded area of central Wisconsin, (Mosinee) each day I am surrounded by the beauty of nature.” “Armed with scissors and needles as my brushes, and fabric as my canvas, I attempt to capture a bit of that beauty in my work.” She continues, “I love the color, the texture, and the pattern designs of fabric. It is exciting to drown myself in fabric and come up with different combinations.”
Books and patterns by Ms Rotz will be available for sale. There is no admission fee; donations are welcomed.
The Walls of Wittenberg is pleased to bring this well known speaker to Wittenberg in conjunction with “The Art of the Quilter: II,” a juried quilt show on display at the WOWSPACE, 114 Vinal Street, downtown Wittenberg, Saturdays and Sundays, 11-3, through February 12. Please visit the show. Admire Ms. Rotz’s wall hanging—“Leaning on the Fence”—which captured the Best of Show Award. Look with wonder at the kaleidoscope of color of all the quilts and wall hangings and don’t forget to vote for your favorite. Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Meats and Nueske’s District No.#3 Antiques are the sponsors of this show.

Online Piracy
Online piracy bill has free speech supporters up in arms
The Huffington Post, The Art Newspaper“A bill being considered by a House of Representatives committee last month could divide the art world into two camps: those who want to protect their creations from being used online and those who like to use the work of others. The legislation, intended to stop piracy on the web, is meeting strong opposition: Wikipedia co-founder, Jimmy Wales, has proposed a blackout on their site.

Critics say the steps would restrain free speech and cause service providers to filter out content they were unsure of.”
