Invisible Children On-campus art exhibits mark the year's end Students get involved in nonprofit organization •ANDREA FOGTFJ Life writer A war is continuing today led by Joseph Kony, a war leader of the Lord Resistance Army that has continued for 23 years, involving the kidnapping of around 3,000 children between the ages of 8 and 12 years old in ^Sudan-, Uganda, Democratic -Republic of the Congo, and Central African Republic. Peace negotiations have stopped after 4 attempts and a rescue plan is in the making for the month of April, ending in a huge event April 25 in hundreds of cities throughout the United States and Canada. UVU students Jeremy Reynolds and Rachel Robbins have helped in organizing the Invisible Children Club on campus to join the aid efforts. One can receive more information in the club's office, LClOla. Reynolds and Robbins have organized a showing of The Rescue Thursday, April 23 from 8-10 p.m. in SC 206c to educate students and faculty on some history as well as inform students about the rescue plan taking place on April 25. "The rescue plan is for peace, in hopes to return the 3,000 children soldiers home and to stop the genocide and war that has been going on too long,'1 Reynolds said. To prepare for The Rescue the club invites all to participate in a peace walk from the northern end basement of the LA building to the WB building, around the loop and back to the LA building, on April 23 from 10:45-11 a.m. Reynolds invites everyone to wear white shirts, Invisible Children attire or creative Invisible Children slogan shirts for the walk. Spotlight tables will be in The Zone in the Student Center, April 21 and 22 from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. For more information about the walk, the rescue plan, and the movie visit The Rescue's website at therescue.invisiblechildren .com/en/ Students' art displays in Library and Student Center IANDREA FOGT 3 Life writer T he Bachelor of Fine Arts shows are the culmination of senior projects for most student artists. The exhibits will be on display in the UVU Library through April. On the 3rd floor we have Susan Purdy's Rise display paired with Tammy Ballard's Visual Voice, exhibiting sculptures and paintings synchronized in similar colors through May 2. Role Play, by Laura Trinnamen and Revelation Revolution by Bradley Trinnamen will be paired with Johanthan Hussey's artwork, on display until April 22. "The Rise exhibit," Purdy remarks, "consists of paintings on black backgrounds with minimal paint and an accent color of yellow orchre. The paintings are inspired by artists Barnett Newman and Franz Kiline for making beauty out of the simple." Brad Trinnamen's Rev- up in the suburbs of Los elation Revolution covers Angeles.

"Rising above heartaches and struggles that you encounter in your life," Purdy said, explaining the exhibit's message. "Rising above others who bring you down, and most importantly, rising above yourself." Purdy tells her story in her paintings about how in life people fail and disappoint you, but in the end one has to rise above it all. Laura Trinnamen1 s genesis of Role Play goes back to a hobby of fashion and clothing design as a young girl. She also explained that her exhibit is inspired by playing dress up. Her art professor says Laura Trinnamon highlights the paradoxes of the varied roles we play in our own lives through her art. "They remind us of our own dual natures, paradoxes, and even hypocrisies," the professor, who would like to remain anonymous, said. "What we see in her images might even be a reflection of what we perceive in our own lives-illusions and fantasy, equality and independence, capability and competence." alpine village enjoy village life Condo Amenities *Year Round Heated Pool *Modern Architecture. *Private Key Locked Bedrooms *Washer/Dryer in Each Unit *42"HD flat Screen TV *Leather Couches *Granit Countertops *Central air Conditioning *9 foot Ceilings *Knotty Alder cabinets *Tile Porcelain Floors Now accepting all Students 1378 N Freedom Blvd Provo, Utah 84604 801-623-6093 www.myalpinevillage.com fe' CARE HALF PRICE TICKETS - STUDENT RUSH ii' ••••• Stndenti w/current ID can buy HALF PRICE Monday -Ttaandcy tix week of ihow date.
