Larry Smith has been asking people to share a life story in exactly six words on SixWordMemoirs.com since he launched the project as part of SMITH Magazine in 2006. These short life stories are now known as Six-Word Memoirs. Nine years and more than one million stories later, the six-word concept has become a bestselling book series and board game, a teaching tool used across the world, and a powerful way to spur on self-expression. In classrooms and boardrooms, around dinner tables and in houses of worship, Six-Word Memoirs have been used to foster understanding, increase focus, and break the ice. Now comes the latest chapter in the six-word story, Six in the City (SITC). SITC C is loosely modeled on the One Book, One City y civic book club concept, and employs all the elements that have made Six-Word Memoirs such a successful form of self-expression, identity and engagement. Unlike One Book, One City, here the experience is not around a work of literature, but rather thousands of personal celebrations of the place we live—six words at a time.

SIX STAGES OF LIVE PEFORMANCES! main st Like a Song (Excerpt) by Michelle Herman As a child, I had a good, strong, sure voice—a great big voice, people said. One of my most humiliating childhood memories: the drama club advisor, in junior high, after my audition—it was the first week of seventh grade; I sang “Cabaret,” a cappella, urging my audience to admit that from “cradle to tomb” wasn’t a very long stay—looking amazed, saying, “My, what a great big voice you have for a little fat girl!” I wasn’t that fat, but even if I had been, all these years later I still can’t believe she said it. If I hadn’t wanted so badly to be in drama club I would have turned and walked out of the room then and there—but I wanted it desperately, enough to thump back down into my seat and clasp my hands and manage to keep from crying, even though all the kids in the room, fellow petitioners for the drama club, were laughing. I didn’t know any of those kids. We’d just moved into the neighborhood. I had a terrible new Sassoon haircut with bangs and curled “sideburns” I Scotch-taped to my cheeks every night, I was short, I wore thick glasses, and I was fat. But I wanted to sing, and I could sing, I knew it. I never made it to the first drama club production, The Boyfriend, despite having been cast as Maisie and despite how much I loved my big song: “Safety in Numbers” (a girl who knows a lot of beaux is never likely to grieve). I quit halfway through rehearsals, when I realized that I hated the teacher even more than I loved performing (which was saying a lot). And later, sitting in the auditorium, watching another Maisie sing my songs, speak my one line of French—Excusez-moi, Madame, je n’avais pas aucune idée que vous êtes ici!— dance the Charleston and kiss the boy I was supposed to kiss, I was miserable. I didn’t belong in the audience—that was how I felt, sitting there, surrounded on all sides by other twelve- and thirteen-year-olds, invisible. 32 Not Horses by Natalie Shapero What I adore is not horses, with their modern domestic life span of 25 years. What I adore is a bug that lives only one day, especially if it’s a terrible day, a day of train derailment or chemical lake or cop admits to cover-up, a day when no one thinks of anything else, least of all that bug. I know how it feels, born as I’ve been into these rotting times, as into sin. Everybody’s busy, so distraught they forget to kill me, and even that won’t keep me alive. I share my home not with horses, but with a little dog who sees poorly at dusk and menaces stumps, makes her muscle known to every statue. I wish she could have a single day of language, so that I might reassure her don’t be afraid— our whole world is dead and so can do you no harm.

The Emerging Artist program is designed specifically to support and promote central Ohio artists who have little or no experience exhibiting and selling their artwork at outdoor venues. Artists who apply in this category must be residents of Franklin or surrounding counties, including Union, Delaware, Licking, Fairfield, Pickaway, Fayette and Madison. Of the 29 applications received this year, 10 artists were selected through a blind jury process by panelists selected by Arts Council staff. As part of the program, each participating Emerging Artist receives assistance from Festival staff on how to best present their work to the public. Support your local artists and buy some of their work today! To find Emerging Artists’ booth locations on site, check out the artists listing on page 44. We encourage local artists who are new to exhibiting at outdoor shows to apply to the 2016 Columbus Arts Festival.
