Ruby Friday | The Calla Campaign: The Art of Self-Exploration

February 8, 2019 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

This event is co-sponsored by the HHL.

How can we bring both arts and engineering together on a creative project? Why are stories important for designing real solutions to global health problems?

Students involved in the Calla Campaign will talk about how a new medical device become the basis to an arts exhibit focused on self-exploration. Born out of a medical device that makes cervical cancer screenings more comfortable and globally accessible, the Calla Campaign encourages women to re-imagine societal perceptions of female reproductive anatomy and healthcare through storytelling and art.

Free and open to everyone, Ruby Fridays are casual art talks offered at noon most Fridays during the semester in the Rubenstein Arts Center’s Ruby Lounge. Speakers include Duke faculty and students who are creating or exhibiting work in the Ruby, visiting artists from far and wide, and local creatives. Learn about the amazing art being created on Duke’s campus, the behind-the-scenes aspect of the creative process, careers in the arts, and more. A free lunch is included!
