Illustrating is also an act of witnessing: images compel us to notice and investigate\, and at their best\, they shed light on and at the same time critically confront the subjects they engage with.”\n—Nora Krug \nAward-winning artist Nora Krug’s powerful graphic memoir\, Belonging: A German Reckons With History and Home\, and her more recent book publication\, an illustrated edition of Yale historian Timothy Snyder’s On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century\, are the focus of an exhibition at the David Owsley Museum of Art. Each book takes inspiration from the artist’s personal experiences as well as the events of history through engagement with deep topical research\, museum artifacts and flea market finds\, vintage photography\, oral histories\, and personal conversations\, with the goal of trying to understand\, reckon with\, and depict the past in order to take something revelatory and useful away from it. \nThe exhibition was organized by the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge\, MA\, and curated by Stephanie Haboush Plunkett\, Chief Curator.

The football bros are hungry for blood\, the ESL kids are hungry for knowledge\, and the hunger strikers are just hungry. Meanwhile\, Nubu\, a newcomer to our world\, considers the meaning of life. When the The Big Game gets cancelled\, a group of intrepid weirdos decides to throw an epic DIY costume party—a ball! Balls Balls Balls is a strange and exuberant new work that asks\, “Can you imagine a world where we all make bread and break bread together?” \nWritten by award-winning playwright Alice Tuan\, Balls Balls Balls was commissioned by the Ball State Department of Theatre and Dance. We’ll present the script as an on-book reading with choreography. No play is complete without an audience\, so we invite you—yes\, you!—to participate in the developmental process. Each performance will be followed by a talkback with the playwright and production team. Come take part in the future of American theatre! \nCommissioned by the Department of Theatre and Dance of Ball State University \nTickets are available through the College of Fine Arts Box Office located at Sursa Hall in person\, by phone at 765-285-8749\, or online.\nGeneral Public: $15 in advance\, $17 at the door\nFaculty/Staff/Students/Seniors: $12 in advance\, $14 at the door URL:https://destinationmuncie.org/event/balls-balls-balls-by-alice-tuan/2026-02-14/2/ LOCATION:Oakwood Building 154\, 2501 N Oakwood Ave\, Muncie\, 47304\, United States CATEGORIES:Art/Culture,Concert/Theatre,Educational,Exhibition,Family Entertainment,Special Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://destinationmuncie.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/BallsBallsBalls_PromoMaterials_Digital_20260113_OG.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20260214T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20260214T210000 DTSTAMP:20260326T013428 CREATED:20260127T213004Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260128T134708Z UID:10007495-1771097400-1771102800@destinationmuncie.org SUMMARY:American Canvases with Ball State Wind Symphony and Wind Ensemble DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the 250th Anniversary of the USA with the Wind Symphony & Wind Ensemble!

All women\, all seasoned players out to make a little noise on a weeknight. What happened next was alchemy: the room lit up\, the crowd roared and by the time the night was over\, something had shifted. The landscape of bluegrass\, and the women who played it\, would never be the same. \nThat night became the origin story of Sister Sadie: a band born by accident\, kept alive by chemistry and fueled by an unshakable bond between women who had spent their lives not just learning the rules\, but defying them. Over the next decade\, Sister Sadie would become a powerhouse. \nA GRAMMY-nominated\, IBMA-sweeping\, Grand Ole Opry-starring force. But for all the stages they played and accolades they earned\, they were still often reduced to a single line: all-female bluegrass band. It was true\, yet reductive. Because Sister Sadie was never about labels. They were about the music. They are about the music. The stories. The fire. And the unrelenting drive to speak their truth through a tradition that hadn’t always made room for it. \nFrom gut-punch ballads to high-octane instrumental parts\, All Will Be Well is the album Sister Sadie was always meant to make. Not for the industry. Not for the silencers. But for the women they’ve become and the world ready to listen. Because yes\, Sister Sadie is still a bluegrass band. But they’re also more. They are country with claws. Americana with muscle. Harmony-driven and hellbent on telling the truth. And they’re not asking for permission anymore. They’re making room. They’re taking names. And they’re just getting started.

Each individual piece is “inherently part of something larger than itself\,” says Campbell\, speaking about the idea that has driven his art for decades. “As it grows\, pieces and groups of pieces are separated and treated as individual works of art.” \nThese groups will be hung and for sale in the Gordy gallery. Those who own a piece of the Puzzle Project will forever have a place in the larger composition. \n“Works of art are often referred to as ‘pieces of art\,’” says Gordy owner Carl Schafer. “For Kevin Campbell\, this is literally true.
