SCN BeAware/Situational Awareness Training
SCN’s BeAware situational awareness training introduces practical skills for noticing concerning or potentially dangerous behavior and responding appropriately in everyday settings, whether in a synagogue, at school, or out in the community. Participants learn how to sharpen awareness, identify safety and security risks, report concerning activity, and play an active role in the safety of their community. Designed for anyone in the community, no prior security experience is needed, and the course focuses on foundational tools to help protect yourself, your family, and those around you. The session takes place in the Small Auditorium at the Jewish Educational Alliance.
Artist Talk: June ON::View Artist-in-Residence Cheryl Capezzuti
An Artist Talk spotlights Cheryl Capezzuti, the May ON::View Artist-in-Residence. For close to three decades, the Pittsburgh based artist has transformed the castoffs of American life into sculptures that probe the human experience. What began as a playful look at domestic routine through lint took a more tender direction in 1999 after the loss of her grandmother, turning toward themes of love, loss and memory. In response to the 2020 pandemic, she again worked with dryer lint to mirror the contemporary American state of mind. By pairing this delicate material with sturdy metal armatures, she has created hundreds of large scale, archival works rooted in community. Her current project shapes figurative pieces from residential dryer lint that speak to what it feels like to be human right now. Savannah residents are invited to donate a bag of dryer lint along with a short handwritten note that shares who they are, what they wash and how they feel about doing laundry. These contributions will be used to create artworks on view in the ON::View residency space. Additional works by Capezzuti will be presented in The Ellis Gallery as part of Rooted, a group exhibition curated by guest curator Lisa Jaye Young. Support for this residency project includes an Artist Opportunity Grant from the Greater Pittsburgh Council for the Arts. The ON::View Residency is made possible with investment from the City of Savannah and support from Georgia Council for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts. Special thanks to local partners including Starlandia Supply, SCAD Museum of Art, Telfair Museums, Thompson Savannah, Green Truck Pub and Starland Yard.
