Announcing STIC, an idea-centric Art Outreach Gallery initiative

The Art Outreach Gallery to screen TED Talks videos.

The Art Outreach Gallery will screen two ~20-minute videos from the remarkable TED Talks video archives at 7:00pm, Thursday, September 1. The presentation is the first of a planned 6-event series called STIC (for Space-Time-Ideas-Community).

STIC events will be held at the Gallery's space in the Eastwood Mall, Niles, Ohio at 7:00pm on the first and third Thursdays of September, October and November 2011. (9/1, 9/15, 10/6, 10/20, 11/3 and 11/17.)

The inaugural STIC event features recorded videos from astronomer, author and education contrarian, Clifford Stoll; and from social media consultant and author, Clay Shirky. Future STIC 2011 presentations will be announced one week before event.

All STIC events are free and open to the public.

Niles Iron and Metal is very pleased to be the official sponsor of the first STIC event.

In keeping in the spirit of TED, the Art Outreach Gallery encourages all to join us to help spread IDEAS WORTH SPREADING!
