Four beautiful, badass women lose their heads in this irreverent, girl-powered comedy set during the French Revolution’s Reign of Terror.
The cast: Playwright Olympe de Gouges played by Megan Schmidt, assassin Charlotte Corday played by Magnolia Brown, former queen (and fan of ribbons) Marie Antoinette played by Lexi Lodwig-Mutter, and Haitian rebel Marianne Angelle played by Nimmi Chandwaney.
All four hang out, murder Marat and try to beat back the extremist insanity in 1793 Paris. What was a hopeful revolution for the people is now sinking into hyper violent hypocritical male rhetoric. Modern audiences will relate.
This grand and dream-tweaked comedy is about violence and legacy, art and activism, feminism and terrorism, compatriots and chosen sisters and how we actually go about changing the world. It’s a true story. Or total fiction. Or a play about a play. Or a raucous resurrection that ends in a song and a scaffold.
Heads will role. Language will fly. Revolutionaries will swear. You have been warned.
Meet at the parking lot of the Spokane Arena, 2pm. Practice loading your bike on a bus bike rack and then join us on a bike tour of future bike infrastructure!

Integrating drawing and painting with the craft of crochet, Jo Hamilton creates figurative art with post-consumer materials. Weaving these disparate languages together, she acknowledges the hand-labor of generations of women as well as the culture of contemporary art. The resulting fabric is a net that filters and transforms traditionally dominate gender stereotypes and fine art genres.

This exhibit features three suites of works on paper spanning seven years. The linocuts form part of a larger conversation with John Milton’s epic poem, Paradise Lost. This body of work led to a commission from The Milton Society of America to respond to John Milton’s poem Lycidas. Finally, Webb took up the prestigious artist in residency at the Joseph and Annie Albers Foundation where he completed a series of 72 drawings, the start of his Manifesto of Painting. This is a small selection of that set of work.
Gallery hours: Monday-Friday from 10 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Closed on official university holidays.
Duo exhibition featuring painter E.L. Stewart and woodturner Connor Kelly. Stewart’s A Little Bit of Both, Not Enough of Either explores color, contrast, shape, and playful tension through layered paintings. Kelly’s wood-turned vessels highlight the natural beauty, grain, and character of wood through carefully crafted forms. Together, their work creates a dynamic dialogue between paint and wood, surface and form, and experimentation and precision.
Mary Tevlin brings to the walls of Entropy Gallery a solo exhibition that celebrates texture, chroma, and illusion; served with a slice of linseed oil pie. The work is a crossing between hard edge geometry and color interaction, drawing upon untold hours of creative practice to the medium of oil painting.
This Oct the Liberty Gallery presents “People, Places and Things”, artwork created by sisters Judy Klier & Marcia McDonald. Judy and Marcia have been painting together for several years ~ they encourage, inspire, and critique each other's work.
For this show Judy has created a series of portraits that is called Women in the Window, that celebrates and encourages the extraordinary strength, wisdom, and potential that women possess.
Marcia’s paintings are inspired by Nature. She explores the play of light and dark, warm colors against cool, intense next to muted, and hard edges relating to soft edges; all effects that express the beauty of the scene and cause the eye to move around the painting.
Stop by the gallery in the Liberty Building this October to see their work ~ come by First Friday on Oct 2nd from 5-8pm to meet the artists!
