The Daily Bruin

Be sure to support our theatre students by attending the spring comic murder-mystery, The Game’s Afoot. Shows begin this week in Wood-Mar Auditorium! Performance dates are April 3-5 and April 10-13. All shows begin at 7:30 p.m. with the exception of the Sunday, April 13, performance, scheduled as a 2 p.m. matinee.

Students are welcome to attend either Thursday production for free. Employees are entitled to one complimentary ticket, available for pick-up at the Box Office in the Pennington House. Additional tickets may be purchased at theatre.georgefox.edu.

The play has some fun with the legendary character Sherlock Holmes. It tells the story of Broadway star William Gillette, who plays the leading role in the smash hit Sherlock Holmes. Gillette invites his fellow cast members to his home to celebrate the holidays. But when one of the guests is stabbed to death, the festivities in Gillette’s isolated Connecticut castle quickly turn dangerous. Luckily, Gillette has played Sherlock Holmes on the stage and knows exactly what to do to nab the killer before the next victim appears.

The university community is invited to hear Makoto Fujimura, an internationally renowned artist, writer and speaker who formerly served as a presidential appointee to the National Council on the Arts, at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 12, in Bauman Auditorium.

“A Conversation with Makoto Fujimura on Faith, Art and Culture” will include a showing of the artist’s new documentary film, Golden Sea, and a discussion session with Fujimura about the arts. There is no charge to attend.

Prior to the campus visit, a 5 p.m. pre-event opening is scheduled at the Chehalem Cultural Center, where Fujimura’s work is currently on display in the center’s Parrish Gallery. The Chehalem Cultural Center is located at 415 E. Sheridan St., in Newberg.

The evening will conclude with a post-event reception in the Lindgren Gallery, where Fujimura will be available to sign books. The reception will be co-hosted by Mark Terry of the university’s Department of Visual Art and Design and Joseph Clair, director of the William Penn Honors Program.

The event is cosponsored by the M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust, the Chehalem Cultural Center, and George Fox’s Department of Visual Art and Design and William Penn Honors Program. More information is available at this link. More about Fujimura is available at makotofujimura.com.

Fujimura is recognized worldwide as a “cultural shaper.” He was a presidential appointee to the National Council on the Arts from 2003 to 2009, and his work is exhibited in galleries around the world. He’s also widely recognized as one of the key illustrators of the St. John’s Bible, the first fully illuminated manuscript to have been commissioned in more than 500 years.
