Postal Plaza Gallery open to publicArt museum kicks off three-month soft opening period with community open house.By caleB surly Sports Reporter

jeFFRey Mei/O’COLLegiAnAll art in the Postal Plaza Gallery will be on full display in January.

A post office isn’t your average art museum.

After three years of renovations, a new downtown museum of art opened its doors for the first time to the public last week, welcoming the Stillwater and Oklahoma State Uni-versity communities to get a much-anticipated inside look at the gallery.

Thursday’s community open house marked the beginning of a three-month soft opening period of Oklahoma State University’s Postal Plaza Gallery, 720 S. Husband St.

OSU President Burns Hargis and Ann Hargis played host to the event.

“OSU has a long and very suc-cessful history in art, but we’ve never had a museum,” President Hargis said.

Preserving the historical post of-

fice, being a part of the burgeoning downtown scene and having the proper amount of space to complete its mission made the location a win-win-win situation, he said.

Most students on campus won’t know who he is, but Jeff Hope is an integral part of a homecoming staple.

Without Hope, the iconic or-ange tint to the Edmon Low Li-brary fountain during homecom-

ing week would never happen. Hope, a water treatment spe-

cialist in the HVAC department, adds a food coloring that is spe-cial ordered from a bakery in Oklahoma City to turn the foun-tain its signature color.

A Stillwater-based agriculture software company brought local hun-ger issues to light Friday morning as 42,000 Wisconsin potatoes made their way to Oklahoma.

SST Software partnered with nonprofit hunger-relief organization Society of St. Andrew to support the Potato & Produce Project.

The project focuses on ending community hunger issues by salvag-ing unsold produce from farms across the country, said Kristine Waits, wife of SST Software CEO Matt Waits. A semitrailer loaded with 21 tons of potatoes was distributed throughout the Payne County area to feed those in need.

The Society of St. Andrew finds farmers willing to donate their pota-toes that would normally go to waste. The potatoes may be unmarketable for cosmetic reasons, however, en-tirely edible. The farmers are able to use the donation as a tax write-off, as well, Waits said.

This is where the need for com-panies like SST Software comes into play.

After the Society of St. Andrew

collected the potatoes, SST financed the delivery and distribution of the potatoes, she said. They were taken to schools, retirement homes, free-meal programs and food pantries in the area.

About 60 SST employees volun-teered their time Friday morning. They worked together to unload and reload the potatoes for distribution. Many employees brought trucks and trailers to deliver the potatoes to their final destinations.

OSU Community Orchestra hosts concert

Scores of Stillwater residents, young and old, filled the Seretean Center on Sunday night for a free night of high-art music.

The Oklahoma State University Community Orchestra put on a show in the Seretean concert hall, which was free and open to the public.

Students, music department faculty and community members compose the orchestra, said Ben Lorenzo, the con-ductor.

The show was at 4 p.m., but because of the lack of windows and the black painted walls in the concert hall, it looked like late evening.

All house lights were dimmed, mag-nifying the appearance of the bright stage lights and their reflections off the polished wooden instruments.

Antonio Vivaldi’s “Concerto for Two Trumpets,” the first song of the night, featured almost exclusively stringed instruments — the exception being two trumpets.

Nick Doutrich, a music perfor-mance senior, and Cleon Chai, a music

education and theatre performance ju-nior, played the trumpets.

Claude Debussy’s “Sarabande” was the next work. And following that was Johannes Brahms’ “Hungarian Dance No. 6.”

Before the fourth, Lorenzo an-nounced that there would be a setup change.

Oklahoma State split two games on the road to continue its fall season Friday.

The Cowgirl softball team traveled to Tulsa for a double-header against the Golden Hurricane. Oklahoma State had already played and won four scrimmages at home, shut-ting out Connors State and In-dependence College in a pair of doubleheaders.

OSU won the first game 3-2 behind strong pitching from Simone Freeman. Freeman pitched a complete game and allowed two runs on five hits, striking out 12 Tulsa batters.

The Cowgirls fell behind early when Tulsa (1-1) posted two runs in the bottom of the first inning. Tiffany Mikkel-son walked in the top of the third with the bases loaded and scored Danielle Riddle, who logged her first of two runs in the game and cut the Golden Hurricane’s lead to one run.

Oklahoma State took con-trol of the game in the top of the fifth inning. Freeman com-plemented her strong pitching performance with an RBI in-field single that drove in Riddle and tied the game 2-2. Shelby

Davis, who went 2-4, scored on a fielder’s choice hit by Gessenia DeLaCruz later in the inning for the game-winner.

The Cowgirls got off to a strong start in the second game, scoring two runs in the first inning. Ari Morrison and Shi-anne Hughes scored on errors by the shortstop and the second baseman, respectively.

Freshman Meagan Lively pitched in the second game, go-ing six innings while allowing eight hits and four strikeouts. She conceded two runs to tie the game in the bottom of the fourth inning.

Tulsa hit a game-winning two-run home run in the bot-tom of the sixth inning to give Lively the 2-4 loss.

Oklahoma State concludes its fall season Sunday when it travels to Fayetteville, Ark. The Cowgirls will play a double-header against the Arkansas Razorbacks (0-2) beginning at 1 p.m.

Potatoes: twenty-one tons of potatoes were given to payne county.

“I’m most excited about open-ing in January with all of the walls up and all of the art hung and then welcoming the community into their new asset,” Hargis said.

Visitors got the first glimpse of the inaugural exhibition “Sharing a Journey: Building the Oklahoma State University Museum of Art Collection.”

The exhibit provided concepts to the construction, conceptual sketches, detailed notes and archi-tectural drawings that were used to create the space. The complete installation of the OSU art collec-tion will be presented in January.

The exhibition will feature more than 100 Oklahoma art-ists and about 3,000 works from the OSU Museum of Art collec-tion. Highlights of the collection include 20th century African art, works on paper and ethnographic materials displayed in a vault space of 2,074 square feet.

Postal Plaza Gallery director Victoria Berry said she is excited

about opening the permanent col-lection in January.

“Every six to eight weeks, more works will be put on display,” Berry said. “We will also borrow a lot of works from traveling exhibits.”

The primary mission of the gallery is to teach students and the community through artistic op-portunity and enhance the learn-ing experience, she said. Students play an integral part in bringing ideas to the museum to help stu-dents learn more about what they are studying.

Cassie Bailey, a junior study-ing interior design, said she heard about the open-door event from a friend. The construction exhibit immediately grabbed her atten-tion when she walked in.

“Being an interior design major, I love seeing the process of histori-cal renovation,” Bailey said.

During the soft opening phase, which runs until Dec. 20, the Post-al Plaza Gallery will be open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays only. All exhibitions and programs are free of charge.For more informa-tion about the OSU Postal Plaza Gallery, visit museum.okstate.edu or call 405-744-2780.

Gallery: the soft opening phase of the gallery will end dec. 20.

A third of all food har-vested is never consumed, ac-cording to SST research. The company saw the Potato & Produce Project as an oppor-tunity to combine agriculture and philanthropy, Waits said.

“I think a company with a heart is important,” she said.

“Our mission is agriculturally-based, so to have something where you can actually put po-tatoes into hands is awesome.”

Many organizations will benefit from the project. The Community Action program claimed 5,000 pounds of pro-duce to provide for local fami-lies.

Churches and nonprofits such as The Salvation Army will use the potatoes to cook meals, and deliver 10-pound bags to homes in need, Waits said.

The project is successful be-

cause of extreme cost-efficien-cy, according to the Society of St. Andrew’s End Hunger website. Because the produce is donated, the only cost to account for is packaging and transportation.

The Potato & Produce Project is 6 cents per pound and less than 3 cents per serv-ing, the website states.

This is SST’s first year to partner with the Society of St. Andrew. They are still working out the kinks, but the overall process was smooth, Waits said.

“I was amazed at how fast that many potatoes go,” Waits said. “I think it’s important to note that we have so much need in Stillwater, in this area. You wouldn’t think that 21 tons of potatoes could be distributed so quickly, but the fact that the need is so great, it’s important to recognize.”

Because of the success and need for food in the area, SST plans to participate in future events like the Potato & Pro-duce Project.

Strong, fragrant flowers and traditional soul music set the mood for a blissful October evening.

Friday’s installment of the Autumn Night Con-cert Series at The Botanic Gardens at Oklahoma State University welcomed blues group Miss Blues and the Blue Notes. The event was free and open to the Stillwa-ter community.

The concert presented local and area musicians to perform live in OSU’s Bo-tanic Garden. Attendees were encouraged to bring chairs and blankets to relax while the concert was in ses-sion.

This was the third con-cert of the four-part series.

A brief instrumental free-style took place during Miss Blues, lead singer of Miss Blues and the Blue Notes, introducing the individual band members.

“Sit back and relax,” Miss Blues said. “We’re gonna take you to an evening of traditional blues.”

An intimacy was created between the audience and the band due to the envi-ronment. Children danced, and adults tapped their toes in sync to Miss Blues’ infec-tious beat.

“The atmosphere really does give a sense of family out here,” she said.

Her head-to-toe ensem-ble of black lace, matte velvet and metallic feather earrings complemented the deep and powerful harmony of her performance.

Isaac Walters, 16, attend-ed the concert in Stillwater with his brother, Jacob Wal-ters, during his vacation with his grandma in Guthrie.

“I’m always open to new genres of music and I’m glad that I gave it a shot,” Walters said.

Fists shaking, head sway-ing, Miss Blues became one with the music.

“I felt like she had a great connection with the crowd,” international business soph-omore Jacob Walters said. “She was funny, and her and the band had incredible tal-ent.”

Born in 1935, Dorothy Choncie Ellis (Miss Blues) originates from Direct, Tex-as.

She began singing at her cousin’s beer garden in Okla-homa City in 1943 after the

death of her mother. She then began collaborating with guitarist “Little” Ed-die Taylor and formed the Rocking Aces Band.

The Autumn Night Con-cert Series will host its last concert 5:30 p.m. Oct. 25. The Wurly Birds will conclude the series by embracing their own flavor of Indie Rock.

They carried brass and woodwind instruments.

This was the first time the orchestra had ever played a full symphony for an audience, Lo-renzo said.

At the conclusion of the concert, the conductor and mu-sicians took turns bowing for the applauding audience.

Lorenzo then invited guests

to meet him in the lobby for re-freshments.

A long table was covered in plates holding cheese, grapes, pies, strawberries and chips and salsa.

Patrons, ranging from tod-dlers to senior citizens ate the snacks and discussed the music.

The musicians have spent months preparing for the con-cert, Lorenzo said. The entire group, almost 40 people, meets every Monday to rehearse.

“We get to make music and have good company,” he said.
