1302 Humanities Midterm Assessment: Attend a Performance or Event and write a 750-1000 word essay.

Assignment

1. Visit a museum or gallery exhibition or attend a theater, dance, or musical performance before the end of Week 8 and:

2. Write a two to three (2-3) page report (750-1000 words) that describes your experience. Use MLA or APA style (See: http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/ for help.)

? Clearly identify the event location, date attended, the attendees, and your initial reaction upon arriving at the event.

? Provide specific information and a description of at least two (2) pieces (e.g. art, exhibits, music, etc.).

? Provide a summary of the event and describe your overall reaction after attending the event.

Attending a Performance or Event (museum, cultural fair, etc.)

? Lone Stat College, Cy-Fair may have free or low-cost performances or student recitals. Student performances are generally of almost the same quality as professional performances, but typically cost much less.

? If visiting a museum, you can wear almost anything; people attending performances are often expected to “dress up” a bit.

? If a performance: take a pen or pencil with you and accept the program you are offered by the usher; you will probably want to make notes on it during or after the performance. Look for very specific things (such as a particular piece of music or the way certain instruments sounded at a specific time) which tend to stand out as either enjoyable or not enjoyable. Be sure to make notes of the things which you find enjoyable as well as the things which are not enjoyable.

? If a museum: Make notes as you go through the museum and accept any handouts or pamphlets that the museum staff gives you. While you should not quote anything from the printed material when you do your report, the handouts may help to refresh your memory later. The quality of your experience is not measured by the amount of time you spend in the galleries or the number of works of art that you actually see. Find one or two (1 or 2) pieces of art or exhibits which intrigue you and then consider those works in leisurely contemplation. Most museums even have benches where you can sit and study a particular piece.

(Note: If you are having a difficult time deciding which pieces to write about, ask yourself these questions: (1) If the museum you are visiting suddenly caught fire, which two (2) pieces of art or exhibits would you most want to see saved from the fire? (2) Why would you choose those two (2) particular pieces?
