2/23 Tuesday: Hope College Art Exhibit – Katie Wynne: Work Day- From Katie Wynne’s website: My work relies on the reciprocal relationship between human and object. Through the residual energy of their making, objects gain their presence. They sit unassumingly, offering you their structure and their skin. The marks of experience, of external forces, have shifted and scarred them. Through these objects we can read the rise and fall of the human drama, both grand and foolish. 160 East 12th St, Holland; 10am-5pm; Free.
2/24 Wednesday: Hope College Theatre Department presents “Miss Julie” at DeWitt Theatre- “Miss Julie” is set on Midsummer’s Eve on the estate of a Count in Sweden.

The action takes place in the kitchen of Miss Julie’s father’s manor, where Jean’s fiancée, a servant named Christine, cooks and sometimes sleeps while Jean and Miss Julie talk. On this night the relationship between Miss Julie and Jean escalates rapidly to feelings of love and is subsequently consummated. Over the course of the play Miss Julie and Jean battle until Jean convinces her that the only way to escape her predicament is to commit suicide. 141 East 12th Street, Holland; 7:30pm; Adult $10, Senior, Hope Faculty & Staff $7, Hope Students & 13-18 year olds $5, Children 12 and under FREE.
