Ich bin Schweizerin\, in Luzern geboren und aufgewachsen. Ich spreche Schweizerdeutsch und Hochdeutsch (Muttersprache)\, Englisch und Französisch. Ich bin Eidg. Diplomierte Ausbilderin und habe in dieser Rolle während über 25 Jahren fremd- und deutschsprachige Menschen in der Schweiz im Umgang mit der Schweizer Kultur und der deutschen Sprache beraten\, ausgebildet und gefördert.\nIm Mai 2022 habe ich die Ausbildung zur MFA-Museumsführerin erfolgreich abgeschlossen. In dieser Rolle interagiere ich jeden Freitagnachmittag mit Museumsbesuchern aller Altersgruppen\, Fähigkeiten und Hintergründe durch lebhafte\, anregende und unterhaltsame Gespräche über unsere ausgestellten Kunstwerke in den Galerien. \nMy name is Anita Birrer\, I graduated successfully from the MFA docent training program on May 7\, 2022. As part of my commitment to the docent program\, I serve as a gallery guide on select Friday afternoons. I am a native Swiss\, I was born and raised in Luzern\, the German part of Switzerland. We primarily speak Swiss German (Schweizerdeutsch). This is a collection of Alemannic dialects that vary by region. Swiss German is used in daily life\, while Standard German (Hochdeutsch) is used in formal settings\, education\, media\, and written communication. Swiss German differs significantly from Standard German in terms of pronunciation\, vocabulary\, and grammar\, often making it challenging for non-Swiss German speakers to comprehend – so I will lead the German Tours at the MFA in Standard German.\nI am a Swiss Federally Certified Adult Educator. I taught Swiss Culture and Standard German (Hochdeutsch) to expatriates working for Swiss companies. I am well-traveled\, and I am also fluent in English. \n\n\nSponsored in part by the State of Florida through the Division of Arts and Culture and the National Endowment for the Arts. \n

SUMMARY:Public Library Outreach Zine Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join MFA St. Pete at the Tarpon Springs Library for an exploration of zine-making—a creative\, DIY booklet that gives artists and authors a space to share their thoughts\, ideas\, interests\, and unique perspectives. Led by MFA Docent Specialist and local artist Cato Galen\, participants will explore works from the museum’s collection and discover how art can inspire their own creative storytelling. Then\, transform those ideas into a one-of-a-kind zine using accessible\, hands-on techniques. No prior experience is necessary! Just bring your curiosity and imagination \nMon\, Nov 16\, 3:30 PM – 4:30 PM\nAges 12-18\nFree: Registration Required\nTarpon Springs Library\n138 E Lemon St\, Tarpon Springs\, FL\n \nRegister on Library Website \n\nCato Galen\n \nMultimedia artist and MFA Docent Specialist Cato Galen (they/them) has used poetry\, movement\, illustration\, collage\, and music to explore their inner world and help other people unblock their creative visions. The fruits of their creative practice have been shared in classrooms\, on stages\, exhibitions and publications from their hometown in Maryland to New York City and now in St. Petersburg\, Florida. Cato approaches art as a social practice to encourage human connection and self-exploration. \n\n\nWhile you’re at the library\, be sure to “check out” even more about the MFA.
