State, thru October 15.764-0395 Wbether or not there is still a distinct category of "Art," there is still a growing community of people who seek art or seek to produce it. Agenda has been expanding its coverage of culture - literatura, film and music are already covered in different sections of this paper. But you may find coverage of the arty aspects of all those media in "Arts Agenda." The "Arts Agenda" column and listing has been part of Agenda since November 1994. It is not oriented just to visual arts, but to all fine art including works in any media that primarily appeal to an "aesthetic attitude." For example, movies that are created using fine arts criteria (like those In the Ann Arbor Film Festival) are more likely to be covered n "Arts Agenda" than movies that are primarily entertainment. "Arts Agenda" lists visual arts events, other events that are directed to the art wortd, and opportunities for artists in all media. If you have an event or opportunity to list, please send the information to AGENDA Arts Editor, 220 S. Main St., Ann Arbor Ml 48104 or cali 994-8781 .
