Get into pictures
"Moose: The Movie," the wacky all-Alaska horror spoof, will be screened at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 22 at Glenn Massay Theater on the Mat-Su College campus. Admission is $10 and proceeds are going toward production of the next crazy Carpenter Bros. film, "Sudsy Slim Rides Again." Like "Moose," "Sudsy" is an exercise in community cinema and local talent is sought to get involved (for the remuneration of a copy of the DVD and your name in the credits). If you're ready to be on the big screen, go to tundracomics.com and check on the "Sudsy Slim" logo. At the same event, the first trailer from another all-Alaska film, "Peaks and Valleys" will have its debut. Advance tickets are available at glennmassaytheater.com.
Get into clay
The UAA Claybody Student Club will host a free two-day workshop with Peter Pincus, an internationally prominent clay artist. Workshops take place starting at 9 a.m. Friday and Saturday, Oct. 21-22, in the Gordon Hartlieb Hall Ceramic Studio, 3300 Seawolf Drive. The workshops are open to the public. At 5 p.m. on Friday Pincus will deliver a free public lecture. To find out more and register, go to uaa.alaska.edu/art.
Get right with your maker
Mozart's baddest bad-boy lover comes to the big screen with Simon Keenlyside in the title role of "Don Giovanni" at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 26., at Century 16. Follow the adventures of the rascally seducer, murderer, abuser of servants and judge of good wine until (spoiler alert) he gets his just reward at the icy hand of a walking, singing, vindictive stone statue. Conductor Fabio Luigi leads an all-star cast in the next presentation of "The Met: Live in HD."
Get in focus
Larry McNeil, former ace Alaskan commercial cameraman and now fine arts photography assistant professor at Boise State University in Idaho, will give a talk at 7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 22, at the Anchorage Museum. McNeil, a Tlingit with roots in Klukwan, often creates images that are visual manifestations of the intersection of cultures — with refreshing doses of irony and satire worked in. He's received a number of national awards and a coveted Eiteljorg Fellowship and is the juror of this year's Alaska Positive photography show. The talk is free and open to the public.
