Indiana weather. Let’s face it – we are all used to it by now. But I, quite frankly, am getting sick of it.

Folk rock and distortion fill Waldron

·

It’s a wonder that all of Bloomington wasn’t deafened Wednesday night, considering the barrage of psychedelic music that was pouring out of the John Waldron Arts Center Rose Firebay at Fourth and Walnut streets.

BFA photography show expresses media neglect

The old Wal-Mart building off State Road 45 has been sitting empty for two years, but last Sunday, a corner of its overgrown parking lot was filled with professional lighting equipment, suitcases and shivering Bachelor of Fine Arts photography students.
