Public Art lecture tonight
The Maine Center for Creativity hosts a lecture at 7 tonight at the South Portland Community Center by Maine College of Art educator Christina Bechstein.
The lecture, "Making it Public: Why Puboic Art Matters," is free and open to the public, and will include slides from public art projects around the world.
Bechstein is assistant professor of sculpture at MECA. Her work focuses on landscapes and how people interact with them. Her public installations have investigated the role of art in place-making and community building.
Phil Harriman, board member of the Maine Center of Creativity will emcee.
The South Portland Community Center is at 21 Nelson Road, near the high school.

Mr Keyes,
I have a small comment/ critique:
if you choose to use as a headline'
"public lecture tonight" .. you have an obligation to post another article the next day, ( a different topic? ) to keep from making us read about an event that already happened. What's the point? Why go to the trouble to post about an event on a certain date... then not be ready for the what you have to take its' place ... the next day???
It does not make me want to return to you blog much....
