Art "à la CART"

Every second Friday of the month at FJJMA from 6 to 9 pm

Each month, the FJJMA teams up with the Norman Arts Council’s Second Friday Circuit of Art, a
monthly Cleveland Area Rapid Transit (CART) route that connects the Downtown Arts District, out-
lying galleries, performance halls and Campus Corner to accompany an art walk. Guests can arrive
and park at Republic Bank on Main Street. From there, guests board one of the trolleys and begin
the Second Friday Circuit of Art. The route will run from 6-10 pm and will make an approximate
30-minute loop, allowing guests to stop and get on or off the trolley at dozens of locations in the
Downtown Arts District and on Campus Corner.

The Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art will participate from 6-9 pm each month, providing hands-on art
activities, live music, independent films and refreshments. Admission to Art “à la CART” is free and
open to all ages. CART rides cost 50 cents per stop or $2 for the entire evening.

Unconquered: Allan Houser and the Legacy of One Apache Family (33 min., USA)
Spanning from the 1860s through today, the Houser/Haozous story is a journey exploring the
incarceration of a people, growth brought on by freedom and a family’s personal expression of
these experiences through art. Recently released as Prisoners of War, Sam and Blossom Haozous
passed down oral traditions of the Apache people to their son Allan Houser. These shared memo-
ries molded his artwork and, in turn, helped him become one of the 20th century’s most important
artists. Houser then passed these same family experiences down to his own sons who are fulfilling
their destinies as the next generation of Native American artists. In the end, the American Dream is
alive in the strength of this one Apache family’s legacy.
