Patrick Kinney, Marketing Director for the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences at the University of Minnesota Duluth has a lot to talk about right now. The arts calendar is a full one over the coming weeks.

Coming up on November 6th is the opening of Everybody by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins. The theatrical production will run through November 14th in the Dudley Experimental Theatre, and each show will be unique. "People who come to the show will see on the stage when they arrive, a bingo wheel," says Kinney. "Five of the actors will have their role that night determined by the bingo wheel. They have to memorize five parts... no two performances will be the same."

On Friday, November 13th at 7:30pm in the Weber Music Hall is the UMD Choral Scholarship Concert featuring The Singers, a choral group from the Twin Cities. "All of the proceeds from that will go to that scholarship fund," says Kinney. "It's an opportunity to see a really great choral group in an amazing venue."

And there's a lot going on at the Tweed Museum of Art. Multiple exhibits are current on display. One exhibit of particular note is The D. R. Martin Collection. The late photographer D. R. Martin grew up in Duluth and began taking street photography of Duluth, Minneapolis, and more. "He captured thousands of photographs of street life," says Kinney. "He donated his entire collection to the Tweed."
