2018 CSI Student Art Exhibition

The annual CSI Student Exhibition opens in the Herrett Center's Jean B. King Gallery on Tuesday, April 17th. This juried show features artworks from current CSI students, and includes paintings, drawings, photography, ceramics, sculpture, and more.
Each spring, current CSI art students are invited to submit artwork to this annual juried event. The artwork is then reviewed by one or more art professionals from around the region, with that person (or persons) tasked with selecting a show from the hundreds of student submissions. This year's juror was Nicole Herden, curator of art at the Boise Art Museum. Nicole selected approximately 80 works across a broad spectrum of media, from painting to printmaking. Nicole also handed out several juror's awards, with Best in Show going to student Brooke Stein for her photograph titled Blind Hope.

Theater Department Presents "Macbeth"

April 25 - 28 and May 2, 3, and 5 7:30 p.m. in the CSI Fine Arts Theater
"Blood will have blood".... The CSI Theater Department, in collaboration with CSI Dance and Music, present a modernization and reimagining of Shakespeare's most exciting play, Macbeth. With original compositions, choreography, and design, we will explore the themes of vengeance, ambition, violence and the roles of men and women in our culture. This is not the traditional Shakespeare you experienced in English class. You will experience a fast-paced, visually exciting, spectacle as Macbeth and Lady Macbeth murder their way to the crown pushed onward by the supernatural, led into the depths of guilt and insanity by their violent and vaulting ambition. Tickets: $10/adults or $5/seniors or students. CSI students are free.

The CSI Music Department is delighted to present the annual Chamber Choir Spring Sing on Sunday, April 29. This year's concert is titled "JOIN IN THE DANCE!" and includes guest appearances by the CSI Madrigal Ensemble and CSI Dance Composition class. Featured choral works include "She Walks in Beauty" by Daniel Gawthrop, The New Colossus by Kevin A. Memley, "Masquerade" by Andrew Lloyd Webber from the iconic Phantom of the Opera, "This is Me" from the recent box-office hit musical The Greatest Showman, and "Join in the Dance" by Paul Aitken. Most of the compositions presented in this year's concert are written by living composers, including two Idaho composers: Dr. Paul Aitken, who is Director of Music and Worship Arts at Cathedral of the Rockies in Boise, and Twin Falls resident Daniel Gawthrop, who is perhaps best-known for Sing Me to Heaven, one of the most performed and recorded choral works in modern history. Admission to the concert is FREE, but donations to the CSI Music Department Scholarship Fund are always appreciated.
