The Arts Center of Greenwood presents a variety of artist talks/demonstrations, community lectures and guest speakers annually. Be sure to check back here for periodic updates to our schedule of events. 

Upcoming Lectures

 
Lander University Community Lecture Series: The Mathematics of Communication
Come celebrate Pi Day with math professor Josie Ryan as she examines the relationships between philosophy, math, and dialogue. How do we know that the words we use truly communicate the ideas we intend? Mathematics employs the concept of “well defined terms” to ensure precise meanings that facilitate clear understanding. Ancient philosophers also recognized the importance of precise terminology. Plato has Socrates show Meno how important this is in the play Meno. Their dialogue on the nature of Virtue reveals how clarity of thought is demonstrated through math and science. Similarly, Augustine uses mathematics as an indestructible, inalterable foundation of human commonality. Dr. Ryan’s talk reveals how the study of math and classical philosophy can enable more humane and human conversations.
Tuesday, March 14 @ 5:30 - 7:00 pm

Lander University Community Lecture Series: TikTok Evangelism
The online presence of Christian churches has grown tremendously since 2020. To what degree has this online format altered the nature of religious services? Has the medium affected the message? More specifically, has TikTok changed the way Christians evangelize? Not as much as you may think. Walter Iriarte’s presentation explores how various Christian TikTokers resist the distractions of TikTok’s special effects/features and avoid self-promotion or monetary gain. Christian TikTokers use the platform to express their faith in creative ways without their messages becoming determined by TikTok’s technologies. In other words, TikTok adapts to Christian creativity and not the other way around.
Tuesday, April 4 @ 5:30 - 7:00 pm


All lectures are free & open to the community and held in the reception hall at The Arts Center of Greenwood.
