SUMMARY:World AIDS Day: A Day With(out) Art
DESCRIPTION:In recognition of World AIDS Day\, join us at the Des Moines Art Center for A Day With(out) Art — an afternoon of art\, film\, and music offering space for healing\, remembrance\, and hope. \nThe program will begin with a 20-minute performance by the Des Moines Gay Men’s Chorus\, followed by a screening of “Common Threads: Stories from the Quilt” (1989). This Academy Award-winning documentary shares the lives and relationships behind panels of the AIDS Memorial Quilt\, revealing the human impact of the epidemic and the power of remembrance to challenge stigma. (Film runtime: 79 minutes) \nThree Iowa-connected sections of the AIDS Memorial Quilt will be on view in the Art Center’s Macomber Lobby from November 17 through 29. The handmade memorials preserve stories of individuals and communities across Iowa\, inviting reflection on lives lost and the people who responded with care\, education\, and advocacy. \nFirst organized by Visual AIDS in 1989\, A Day With(out) Art brings cultural institutions together to remember those lost to AIDS and recognize the ongoing experiences of people living with HIV. \nRobert Mapplethorpe (American\, 1946 – 1989)\n“Two Men Dancing” (detail)\, 1984\nGelatin silver print\nDes Moines Art Center Permanent Collections; Gift of Hudson\, New York\, 2001.12\nPhoto: Rich Sanders \nFree; no registration required.\nGenerous support provided by Art Bridges Foundation’s Access for All program. \n \n  \n  \n  \nWe strive to provide closed captioning for all events and programs offered in Levitt Auditorium.
