The Shell Game

Opening reception, Tuesday, February 19, 2019, 5:00-7:00 pm

Perhaps only devotees of The Price Is Right remember “The Shell Game” segment, but everyone knows the relatively simple ruse from which it was adapted. While the ancient street hustle merely masquerades as a fair contest, the game show version differs principally in so far as it is actually possible for players to win. However, even an apparently honest game can serve as a confidence trick.

Standing Out: Branding That's Personal

6:30 PM – 8:30 PM

You have a personal brand, whether you know it or not. It's your image and the true, authentic story you want to tell. In a crowded professional landscape, developing a personal brand that stands out is a part of being seen among the crowd. Many of us have helped build a client’s brand — now it’s time to turn those same skills to design how we want to be seen by the world.

About Deaf People in Hitler's Germany

Script and director: Bentein Baardson

Performed in ASL and English

The fates of the deaf in Nazi Germany has been a neglected topic in the story of the Holocaust. It is only recently that this almost unknown chapter of history has been the subject of documentation and research. – Director Bentein Baardson
