BC Featured: Delano Campus Art Instructor to be Visiting Sculptor

Delano Campus Art Instructor to be Visiting Sculptor

Our Delano Campus art instructor Cameron Brian has been selected to be a visiting sculptor at California State University, Bakersfield in 2014.

Cameron will be working with CSUB students and researching the history of camps around Weedpatch during Central California’s dust bowl era. The event is for “Proud to be an Okie: Celebrating 75 Years of The Grapes of Wrath'” and is sponsored by CSUB’s School of Arts and Humanities.

In addition to working with students, Cameron will build an accurately-represented miniature “Dust Bowl Era” encampment on the CSUB campus.

    Hi Sonya,

    The Center and BC Library are presenting three events in early February celebrating the 75th anniversary of the publication of the Grapes of Wrath. The first week will feature Gerald Haslam discussing the book’s literary and cultural significance, the second week will be a panel of BC profs discussing the labor and economic issues surrounding the book, and the third week will feature Rick Wartzman, author of Obscene in the Extreme :The Burning and Banning of John Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath, who will talk about the banning of the book in Kern County.

    Jack
