In Between the Middle
An inaugural exhibition curated by the #notwhite collective

#notwhite is
WE are a group of eleven women artists elevating the stories of the others. Those of us who do not fit neatly in the consensus boxes; neatly in cultural categories.

WE are bi/multi-racial/cultural, immigrant or descendants of immigrants. Over the past two years, we have met to share, to question, to investigate, dig deep into what identity is within and outside the construct and context of white---not in skin color, but as a system of oppression, a system we do not align ourselves with. WE hope to provide an artistic platform for difficult discussions on the complexities of cultural identity in America to move us all towards humanity.

#notwhite collective members are: Christiane Dolores, Fran Flaherty, Veronica Corpuz, Geña, Maritza Mosquera, Carolina Loyola-Garcia, Liana Maneese, Amber Epps, Sarah Aziz, Christina Springer and Maggie Negrete.

7:30 pm Lecture: Dr. Tim Flaherty “Betweeness: the Mathematics of being between”

"What does it mean for an object A to be between objects B and C? This introductory talk will review the notion of distance - first in the ordinary sense, measured in familiar terms such as inches or miles. Then distance will be considered in more abstract terms, as considered in many applications in mathematics. Can we define the distance between arbitrary objects? Yes! We'll consider the idea of betweeness in general; for example, what would it mean to be between an apple and a banana?"
