November 9 (Tuesday) – 2010-2011 C. Shaw and Nancy K. Smith Artist Series, “ScrapArtsMusic” – Duke Family Performance Hall, 8 p.m. - Canadian-based ScrapArtsMusic excites the senses with intricate rhythms, raw energy, athletic choreography and the greenest (and most inventive) reuse of materials on stage today. Fashioned from industrial scrap and offbeat materials ranging from accordion parts to artillery shells, this group’s one-of-a-kind instruments are as visually striking as their music is sonically riveting. Tickets: General Public - $20; Faculty/Staff - $15. For ticket information, call 704.894.2135. Tickets may be purchased online, by calling 704.894.2135, in person at the Union Box Office (Monday – Friday, 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.), or at the door.
