Tuesday Salon: "Who Pundit?: Satire, Truth, and Accountability"

12/02/11

The Handwerker Gallery is pleased to host a salon moderated by Katie Marks, assistant professor from the Department of Writing, taking place on Tuesday, December 6, at 4.00 p.m.  Following a presentation on her research, Marks will moderate a relevant discussion on the significance of satirical humor used in contemporary media.  After the salon, interested participants will be allowed to inspect and handle mid-19th century editions of Harper's Weekly from the Handwerker Gallery permanent collection.

The Tuesday Salon is a Handwerker Gallery program aimed at providing students, faculty, staff, and members of the community a forum outside of the classroom for intellectual discussion and debate. Topics are selected by our guest discussant, who provides a 10-minute introduction and moderates the ensuing conversation. 

All Handwerker Gallery events are free and open to the public.  Gallery hours are Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, 10 a.m. to 6.00 p.m.; Thursday, 10.00 a.m. to 9.00 p.m.; and weekends, noon to 5.00 p.m..  The gallery is closed to the public on Tuesdays unless otherwise specified for an event but can accommodate group or class visits by appointment.  Individuals with disabilities requiring accommodations should contact Mara Baldwin at 607.274.7057.  Please make requests for accommodations as far in advance as possible.
