SUMMARY:Empty Bowls Throwing Session at the Workspace
DESCRIPTION:Fri.\, May 30\, 2025 4 – 7p.m.\, ISU Memorial Union Workspace\, East Basement\, 2229 Lincoln Way \nRegister here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0E4AACA82EAAF9CE9-55985558-workspace \nJoin local artists at the Workspace\, to make bowls for the 2025 Empty Bowls soup supper to be held in November. If you’re interested in helping\, join us on Fri.\, May 30\, between 4 – 7 p.m. The Workspace\, in partnership with the Ames Community Arts Council\, will provide clay\, tools\, a wheel\, and the space to create — all you need to do is show up and throw some bowls! \nDue to limited space\, we are asking potters to register in advance. You may sign up for one\, two\, or all three hours. We do ask that if you reserve a space and your plans change\, please release the time so others can fill the timeslot. \nThis opportunity is intended for folks who feel comfortable throwing bowls independently\, as there will not be instructors available. Potters must also commit to returning to the Workspace to trim their bowls between Mon.\, June 2 and Tues.\, June 10 during open hours (Mon. – Fri.\, 2 – 9 p.m. and Sat.\, 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.). The Workspace staff will fire and glaze all finished bowls. \nPlease reach out to Workspace staff member Erin McCollum at erinmcc@iastate.edu with any questions. \nAbout the event: Empty Bowls is a global\, grassroots movement that raises money for food-related charities and organizations to fight hunger. Participating artists create and donate bowls\, then organizers serve a simple meal. Guests choose a bowl to keep as a reminder of all the empty bowls in the world. In addition to the pottery being provided by local artists\, local restaurants and grocery stores also donate to the project. \nThe second annual Empty Bowls will be held Sat.\, Nov. 15 at Collegiate United Methodist Church and Wesley Foundation (2622 Lincoln Way\, Ames). The Ames Community Arts Council\, Hardie Clay Studio\, Creative Artists Studios of Ames\, Nathan & Clay\, the ISU Memorial Union Workspace\, the Octagon Center for the Arts\, and numerous Ames artists\, along with our beneficiary organizations: Gilbert Community School’s Backpack Buddies\, the ISU Students Helping Our Peers (SHOP) food pantry\, and the Ames Community School District\, through a central HOPE (Helping Other People Eat) Pantry at the newly renovated AMES Center\, are partnering to organize an Empty Bowls event to address food insecurity for students across the community.

SUMMARY:The Bird Hunters - The Goldfinch Room
DESCRIPTION:Stephens Auditorium and Reiman Gardens are hosting The Goldfinch Room Songwriter Showcase at Reiman Gardens. This partnership brings together singers/songwriters from the Midwest in the Goldfinch Room tradition of storytelling with the stunning beauty of Reiman Gardens. Performances will take place in the Reiman Gardens’ Catalpa Courtyard. Season passes will be available as well as tickets to can be found here: https://www.center.iastate.edu/gfr-reiman-gardens/. Reiman Gardens members will receive free admission to the performances. \nThe Bird Hunters: Taking their name from a Turnpike Troubadours song\, the band draws a lot of influence from bands like Turnpike\, who weave heartfelt lyrics and deeper-meaning songwriting into foot-stomping\, rowdy country music for the party crowd. The Bird Hunters are unwilling to trade shallow lyrics for a good time and true honest songwriting is always at the center of the music they make. The Bird Hunters claim the genre “Midwest Country” drawing influence from the radio they grew up listening to and the stories they’ve been told their whole lives. Iowa is known for its non-regional diction so you won’t find any fake accents\, but the twang is well represented in their telecasters and the rhythms are made for two-stepping. \nAt each Songwriter Showcase\, a local food truck will be on site and beverages will be available for purchase. Outside food and non-alcoholic beverages are allowed into the Gardens. Audience members are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and/or blankets as the seating is on the lawn. If weather proves to be a challenge\, the performance will move inside to the Garden Room. \nReiman Garden members receive free admission to all the Songwriter Showcases. For non-members\, Stephens Auditorium is offering season passes at $50 and Individual show tickets at $15 in advance and $20 day of show. Passes and tickets do include free admission to Reiman Gardens on the afternoon of the performance. The Goldfinch Room Songwriter Showcase at Reiman Gardens is supported by Ames Community Arts Council\, Discover Ames Community Grant Award with additional underwriting support from Doug and Gwenna Jacobson and David and Bonnie Orth.

SUMMARY:Annual Lecture Series: Ames Oddities: A Pictorial Tour - Ames History Museum
DESCRIPTION:Annual Lecture Series\nAmes Oddities: A Pictorial Tour\nAttend in person: Ames Public Library\, 515 Douglas Ave.\nAttend online: Register for the Zoom link\nFree and open to the public\nSpeaker: Kathy Svec\, museum volunteer\, with help from Sharon Wirth\, Bob Bourne\, and Alex Fejfar \nAll around Ames are certain structures and features that are odd-looking\, have a strange shape\, or don’t seem to fit into the rest of their surroundings. Some are remnants of past landscape features\, some were influenced by historic decisions that are hardly remembered in the current day. We’ll take a pictorial tour of these “oddities” and relate the fascinating and sometimes quirky reasons why these things are the way they are. Perhaps those “oddities” will make more sense and you’ll see our city with new eyes. \n2025 Lecture Series presented in partnership by Ames History Museum and Ames Public Library. \nMore information about each lecture available on AHM’s website calendar. All lectures will be hybrid – attend in person at Ames Public Library or online via Zoom. Free and open to the public. \nTues.\, May 20\, 2025 – 7 p.m.

SUMMARY:Raynes - The Goldfinch Room
DESCRIPTION:British-American trio Raynes have wasted no time making themselves heard. Signing with Sony Music Publishing less than a year after their inception\, the group has since released six singles and two EPs and have performed across the US and the UK. Their singular blend of pop\, folk\, and world music is being featured on television shows\, commercials\, and tastemakers’ playlists\, earning them hundreds of thousands of monthly listeners and millions of streams. \nMat Charley and Joe Berger\, both born and raised in North Dakota\, met in college\, where Mat––the band’s producer and multi-instrumentalist––was usually skipping class to write songs. Knowing that they would need a strong vocalist\, they took to the internet to find the missing piece of their project. After months of searching\, they came across a video of Mark Race\, a native of Durham\, UK. Ten days later\, after a Facebook message and a few phone calls\, Mark was on a flight to LA to meet Mat and Joe. As Raynes\, they combine their diverse influences to forma group whose taste spans the globe\, incorporating elements of folk\, Americana\, and baroque pop with Celtic and world music to create a wholly original sound. \nwww.raynesmusic.com \nWe hope to have a food truck!
