Or you think it’s ready but you don’t know what to do next. Room to Write is for you.

Building on the success of our acclaimed Path & Pen Annual Spiritual Writers Conference, One River and Scarritt Bennett invite you spend a weekend on campus just writing what you want to write. No classes, no workshops, no pressure... well, maybe a little pressure. The aim of Room to Write is to provide you with three days of uninterrupted writing time.

Come “look in” at what happens before the curtain goes up. Walk right into the private world of rehearsal and grab a snack. Meet the actors, get to know the creative staff, and view an excerpt of the performance at the Tennessee Repertory Theatre’s Rehearsal Hall.

Glengarry Glenn Ross is a scalding comedy-drama that took Broadway and London by storm when it opened in 1984, and garnered a Tony nomination for best play. In the first act, the salesmen vie for position as they gulp their cocktails in the local Chinese restaurant. The second act shifts to the office where the promising Glengarry Glen Ross leads have been filched. Mamet’s not-so-subtle reflection on how bad things happen when vulnerable people are reduced to targets by unscrupulous sharks unfortunately still resonates today. Cast: David Alford, Brian Russell, David Compton, Eric Pasto-Crosby, Henry Haggard, Chris Strand, and Kamal Bolden.

A brilliant new play, Rabbit Hole won the 2006 Pulitzer Prize for drama. Becca and Howie Corbett have everything a family could want, until a life-shattering accident turns their world upside down and leaves the couple drifting perilously apart. Rabbit Hole charts their bittersweet search for comfort in the darkest of places and for a path that will lead them back into the light of day. Producing Artistic Director, Rene Copeland, says “I don’t think there’s better, more believable, more truthful dialogue and characters than what this play brings to the stage, and you will be amazed by what you see.”

Cast: Erin Whited, Shane Bridges, Jamie Farmer, Peggy Walton-Walker, Andy Kanies.

Ever wondered why racism is still an issue in America and we can’t get past it? Civil right laws have been passed, integration has come, and equal opportunity seems abundant, but why does racism continue to plague the fabric of America?

These workshops are designed for anyone who is ready to go a step beyond traditional diversity training and really discover how racism shapes our thinking, communities, institutions, and conscious/unconscious behaviors. By understanding what’s at the core of racism, participants can began to unlearn it and dismantle this very real problem in America.

"White Privilege is an invisible package of unearned assets that I can count on (as a white person) cashing in each day, but about which, I was “meant” to remain oblivious. I am pretty sure that I can live in a neighborhood where my neighbors will be neutral or pleasant to me. I can turn on the TV and see people of my color (white) depicted in a positive way. I am never asked to speak for all people of my racial group and I can protect my children most of the time from people who may not like them.” - Peggy McIntosh

The second workshop will look at White Privilege -- it's legacy, pathology and continuing impact in America and will feature Tim Wise as a presenter.

Unlocking The Secret of Subconscious Attraction will show attendees how a revolutionary technique can redirect one's subconscious thinking to believe that anything is possible. "The powerful fact that 98 percent of our thoughts, emotions, relationships, cravings, behaviors, fears, and health are controlled by the subconscious explains how our lives end up falling short of our conscious dreams and desires," Tossing said. "Anyone wishing to use the mind's awesome power of attraction can uncover and re-program subconscious beliefs with a simple powerful technique, appropriately called Subconscious Attraction Technique."

The Frist Center for the Visual Arts will host a major symposium January 23–24, 2009, in conjunction with the exhibition Paint Made Flesh, a revisionist study of post-World War II art.

The exhibition offers a rejoinder to the modernist orthodoxies of the period by contending that paint’s material properties make it most suited to convey metaphors for human vulnerability. The exhibition includes works by Pablo Picasso, Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, Willem de Kooning, Alice Neel, Leon Golub, Philip Guston, Eric Fischl, Georg Baselitz, Jenny Saville, Wangechi Mutu, John Currin, Daniel Richter, and others.

The symposium will offer compelling conversation about the role of figure painting as it has defined psychological and socio-historical conditions in Europe and the United States since World War II. Click here for the complete schedule.
