SUMMARY:Fail Night 7: Better Luck Next Time - Grant Writing Fails and Possibilities
DESCRIPTION:Join the 10C community for our 7th annual Fail Night – a fun and inspiring night where we share and laugh at our missteps\, shake them off and find success in a community dialogue about failing.  \nThis year’s theme is ‘Better Luck Next Time – Grant Writing Fails and Possibilities’ where our panelists will be asked questions about their experience stumbling through the grant writing process\, sharing their insights\, and connecting further to enhance our own grant writing and collaborative grant writing skills. Working towards future and shared successes.  \nAs always\, the panel discussion will be followed by an ‘open mic’ about grant failure and new possibilities for collaborations. \n\nOur Panelists: \nScott McGovern \nScott McGovern is a curator\, artist\, video maker\, and educator. He studied video at the Ontario College of Art and Design. Since 2005 he has been the program director at Ed Video Media Arts Centre\, an artist run centre in Guelph\, Canada\, where he has facilitated over 150 exhibitions\, events\, and concerts. Since 2010\, he has been the Visual and Media Art Curator of Kazoo! Fest. He has curated exhibitions at artist run centres\, public galleries\, and art fairs in Canada\, USA\, Mexico\, England\, France\, Sweden\, Finland\, Spain\, and Greece. \n\nScarlett Raczycki \nScarlett Raczycki (she/her) is the Executive Director of Silence\, a charitable community organization\, music venue\, and art gallery in downtown Guelph. Silence supports community and individual wellbeing by holding space and advocating for adventurousness\, creativity\, innovation\, collaboration\, and difference through concerts\, workshops\, and more.  \nBefore Silence\, Scarlett earned her MA in Art History with a Graduate Diploma in Curatorial Practices in Visual Culture through York University and received her BA in Philosophy and Museum studies at the University of Guelph. Scarlett’s passion for community organizing and grassroots arts administration has led her through positions such as Front of House Manager at the Blyth Festival Theatre\, Local Affairs Commissioner at the University of Guelph Central Student Association\, Festival Director of the Huronsound Music and Arts Festival\, and Board Member at Blyth 14/19 (now the Canadian Centre for Rural Creativity). During her 3 years at Silence\, Scarlett is proud to have had her hand in securing over $150\,000 in project and operating grants while directing as much money into the hands of artists as possible. \n\nMichelle Peek \nMichelle Peek is an artist facilitator\, community-engaged educator\, and photographer. As Founder and Executive Director of Art Not Shame\, she is interested in the transformative role of art-based community-making in social justice projects and mental wellbeing.

Michelle holds a PhD in English and Cultural Studies from McMaster University where she studied and has published on love and belonging in contemporary queer\, Indigenous\, and human rights literature. \n\nScott Thomson \nScott Thomson is a trombonist and composer based in Montreal. His songs on texts by others for singer and dance artist\, Susanna Hood\, have been played in many contexts\, some involving her choreography. His work as a soloist\, with Monicker (with Arthur Bull and Roger Turner)\, and his recent disc Pal o’Alto (duos with Yves Charuest\, Jean Derome\, Karen Ng\, and John Oswald) show Scott’s ongoing commitment to open improvisation. He co-founded and co-directed the Association of Improvising Musicians Toronto 2004-09\, and co-directed the AIMToronto Orchestra\, formed for a project with Anthony Braxton in 2007. In 2016\, he convened the Montreal-Toronto Art Orchestra to work with Roscoe Mitchell. Scott founded Somewhere There\, a Toronto venue that hosted 850 concerts during his tenure\, 2007-10.

SUMMARY:Personal Protective Visuals (PPV) - Amber Ozols Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Amber Ozols Exhibition at 10C Shared Space (42 Carden St.)\nNovember 22nd-December 10th \n\nDrop in the gallery Monday\, Tuesday and Thursday 9am-1pm or email executivedirector@guelpharts.ca to book a viewing appointment.\n\nOpening Reception: Thursday November 25th from 7:00pm-9:00pm. \n\n\n\n\nMy project’s objective is to develop a series of visual pieces that are entirely based in positive psychology and neuroscience research findings\, that can improve mood and quality of life. Based on empirical\, scholarly data\, I have created oil paintings and illustrations that can visually improve human brain chemistry. I have been awarded grants from the Canadian Council for the Arts and the Ontario Arts Society to pursue this project and I’ve been devouring scientific texts about mental resiliency since September.\n\nThis series of pieces act as Personal Protective Visuals (PPV) to keep us visually and mentally safe\, not unlike the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) that has been keeping us alive these last 18 months. This project will eventually be moving to murals in public spaces\, once locations have been secured. If there are public spaces that are interested\, or would like to be considered\, they could reach out through my website: www.amberozolsart.com
