The public is invited to the opening reception of The Space Between -- a series of paintings and projections by Betsy Delzer, Bobbette Rose and Jeffrey Pohorski.

Using the brick walls of Goldleaf's Casa Blanca on Old University Avenue, Delzer offers up four paintings as she reflects on the changing seasons of the year. Rose responds with faint wisps of the journey between each. These paintings will be on view through mid-December.

Pohorski and Rose said they collaborated on video projections, responding to the paintings and concept of transition and change. The walls begin to melt and drip down the sides revealing layers of color and images. The projections will be on view for one night on Saturday, Nov. 19 from 6 to 9 p.m.

The project was funded through a BLINK grant from the Madison Arts Commission which invites experimental, temporary works of art to sprout up throughout the community.

The Dane County Food Council aims to create an economically, socially, and environmentally sustainable local food system. At their celebration of National Food Day on Oct. 24, the council released an action plan to do just that.

Chair of the council, County Supervisor Melissa Sargent, welcomed the National Food Day crowd to Goodman Community Center. The audience included representatives from Sustainable Times, Community Action Coalition, Family Farm Defenders and Farm Fresh for All.

"We have a lot to celebrate," Sargent said. "Our farmers markets, community supported agriculture (CSA), our community gardens, and locally sourced foods in our grocery stores."
