Downtown inspires student artists

·

Growing up in a small college town in Illinois, graduate student Kristin Carlson lacked a lively downtown similar to Bloomington, and after returning from a summer abroad in Venice, she was inspired by the “city of many squares.” This inspiration became a collaborative art display titled Interpreting the Square: Thirty Artists Explore Downtown Bloomington. The display opens with a reception  6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Friday at the Bloomington City Hall Atrium. The exhibit can be viewed from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday until Sept. 30

James Bond, not Ron Jeremy

·

I get that you’re drunk but, ladies and gentlemen, saying something Ron Jeremy would say probably isn’t the best way to hop in the sack. And even if that line does work, I don’t think it would be a good idea to get down and dirty with the person who went for it.
