Second Friday has passed ...

... but it's a great Tuesday for art in KCK.

Tonight, at the YWCA, there's a free screening of What I Want My Words to Do to You! The film is presented by the YWCA, Arts in Prison Inc. and the UMKC Women's Center.

The documentary follows a writing program, led by playwright Eve Ensler, in a women's prison. The film ends with a performance of inmate-written work by a cast that includes Glenn Close, Marisa Tomei and Rosie Perez. It starts at 7 p.m. in the Black Box Theatre.

While you're there, check out Russell Easterwood's paintings in the YWCA's Sixth Street Gallery.

Imago Dei, open Tuesdays through Saturdays, is showing Mark Weber's Landscapes of Grace through the end of the month. The gallery's open until 5:30 p.m, so it's possible to swing by after work, see Weber's work, find a bite to eat downtown and then head to the YWCA.
