The Scopes Monkey Trial Transcripts come to life in a world-premiere event this summer! Join New Fortune as we celebrate the centennial (July 1925-July 2025) by recreating this epic event, "The Great Debate," where science, religion, education, and legislation collided in America's consciousness—100 years ago. Come hear the powerful speeches and passionate arguments made in the "courtroom" and enjoy the fair-like entertainments on the "courthouse lawn," including Live 1920s Music, Book Sales, Catapulting Monkeys, and much more. American Monkeys ain't Inherit the Wind. This here's the Truth of History. "We have done crossed the Rubicon!" Because New Fortune believes there should be no barrier to anyone being able to attend this great public event, we will not be charging admission. The event is free and all are welcome. Bring the kids. Bring the neighbors. Bring your sweetheart. Bring your friends. Donations are making this and future events like "American Monkeys" possible! So please consider donating at the event to show your support for New Fortune's Public Programming! Recommended donation $20 or “Pay The Fine to Violate the Law” $100. Thank you!

En esta edición especial de Port of Entry, les traemos la historia de Charles Glaubitz y Giancarlo Ruiz, dos compadres de la región fronteriza Tijuana-San Diego que recientemente colaboraron en una novela gráfica titulada "The Fracture.” Adentramos en cómo este compadrazgo de décadas hizo posible la creación de este cómic. Y... lo haremos de una manera un poco diferente esta vez. ¡tambores, por favor! Les presentamos Port of Entry Shorts: cápsulas de video cortas que dan vida a nuestras historias transfronterizas de una manera nueva y fresca, ¡a través del video! Para inaugurar este nuevo formato, comenzamos con dos videos: uno protagonizado por Charles y el otro por Giancarlo. Estas cápsulas se estrenaron originalmente el otoño pasado en nuestro evento en vivo y son parte de un paquetazo de cinco episodios que incluye este episodio, además de las dos partes de nuestro evento en vivo. ¡Esperamos que disfruten estos cinco episodios! ¡Nos vemos pronto! P.S.S. También participaremos en algunos eventos públicos para hablar sobre la creación de podcasts y nuestro estilo de narrativa. Intersection 2025

In this show, “Blush” becomes a site of convergence between warmth and coldness, the private and the public, the intimate and the speculative. The title evokes not only the bodily reaction of flushing skin—often involuntary and tied to emotion, exposure, or embarrassment—but also the ephemeral hues of tenderness, shame, desire, and nostalgia. It asks: What does it mean to be emotionally visible in a world that often demands detachment? Vanessa Rishel invites viewers to explore vulnerability and softness through her most recent and experimental works. Drawing on personal memory, sensory perception, and speculative imagination, her practice negotiates the thresholds between inner affect and external expression. Through color, and spatial arrangement, Rishel creates atmospheres that oscillate between comfort and unease—spaces where emotion is not only seen, but felt. Join us at Mortis Studio for the reception on Friday, June 13th from 7 p.m. - 10 p.m. "Blush" will run from June 13th - July 13th.
