Piranha Pond Pitch Party!
- Location: Claire T. Carney Library, Stoico/FIRST FED Charitable Foundation Grand Reading Room
- Cost: $35 General Admission; Free for students and faculty, bur registration required
- Contact: CIE: Center for Innovation & Entrepreneurship
- Description: What is the Piranha Pond? Piranha Pond is modeled after the popular TV show Shark Tank, and it is a "pitch party" where a select group of entrepreneurs have up to 5 minutes to convince a panel of investors to meet with them to further discuss their ventures.
Using a format similar to Shark Tank, our investors provide feedback to the entrepreneurs about their presentations and companies, and information to all about why they decide to be "In" or "Out" If they are "In" they will meet with the Entrepreneur at a later time to discuss their company. If they are "Out" there is no interest at this time. If you're interested in becoming an entrepreneur, don't miss this program.
Piranha Pond Pitch Party, 5:30-8:30 p.m., Stoico/FIRST FED Charitable Foundation Grand Reading Room, Library.
This event is free for students and faculty, registration is required. Pizza will be served. To register, or for more information, visit www.piranhapond.com.

Formidable: Site Specific Installation by Kat Knutsen
- Location: Star Store, New Bedford
, Purchase Street, New Bedford
- Cost: Free admission.
- Contact: University Art Gallery
- Description: College of Visual & Performing Arts (CVPA) presents a new site-specific installation by recent MFA graduate Kat Knutsen, entitled "Formidable" through November 12, 2015.
After receiving her MFA in painting at UMass Dartmouth in 2014, Kat Knutsen (born 1984) began an artist residency at CVPA's Star Store Campus focusing on combining fiber arts and painting in her animations. Her work has since evolved towards installations that combine fiber art, painting, sculpture and music.
As she says, "I keep an open mind with the materials I work with and explore the relationships between them. At the moment, my work is a conversation between the two-dimensional, three-dimensional and sound. 'Formidable' is a culmination of my experiences since I arrived in New Bedford in 2012. For me, the object of the jellyfish symbolizes the need to quickly adapt in the changing art world. The challenge of creating a dialogue between the textile objects, painting and music in this site-specific installation parallels my journey in building a career as a young artist today."
