Sarah Doyle Lounge

WE-Teach-STEM is a program designed as a discourse space for non-tenured instructors (lecturers, adjuncts, postdocs, and graduate students) interested in teaching by, for, and as women in STEM fields. A group of female lecturers founded WE-Teach-STEM in April of 2015 as a platform to elevate non-tenured female instructors in the conversation of STEM education and the Sarah Doyle Women's Center is formalizing the program for the 2015-2016 academic year. By attending the kick-off lunch, you can help author the direction of the formalized program and how it can best serve women in STEM and the Brown community in general. Please RSVP with your interest to Kyle Trenshaw (kft@brown.edu). *A free light lunch will be available to the first 30 attendees.*

Sarah Doyle Gallery

The Sarah Doyle Gallery is proud to present “Intimate Embodiments,” a solo exhibition by Elisabeth Walden. “Intimate Embodiments” is the product of Connecticut artist Elisabeth Walden’s sustained engagement with her own abundant flesh as a tool to make art. The paintings and prints in this exhibition exist along a continuum between representation and abstraction, between the frank immediacy of the body print and the language of abstract painting. In her struggle to create a positive identity for herself in the face of tremendous social pressure to hate her fat, female body, Walden searches for the beauty in the folds of her skin and the fullness of her belly, balancing the stigma of her fatness with the seductive marks her body makes.

On display: October 5-November 6
