Reflecting, Sharing, Learning

This talk features Tex Crawford and David Metcalf with UFO author and expert Greg Bishop, host of Radio Misterioso and author of Project Beta, A is for Adamski, and It Defies Language!

The event celebrates the opening of Athens-Clarke County Library's gallery show, "Visions From The Outside: Artistic Celebration of UFOs and Other Mysteries," which opened in the library's Bogue Gallery Oct 2.

Visions From the Outside features artistic expressions of the UFO Enigma from a striking selection of the best in American Folk and Outsider artists - an artistic extravaganza curated by creative visionary Tex Crawford, and Windbridge Institute Scholar in Virtual Residence David Metcalfe.

From Foo Fighters in World War II to Kenneth Arnold’s 1947 sighting over Mt. Rainer; From the D.C. Flying Saucer Flap in 1952 to the Phoenix Lights in 1997; From the “Humanoid Wave” of 1973 to the Preliminary Assessment on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena published by the U.S. Office of the Director of National Intelligence in 2021. No matter where you look in U.S. history there’s a UFO hovering nearby!

Join us for an uncanny exploration of these fantastic flying mysteries. Whether you’re a skeptic, a believer or a down to earth saucer seer, this exhibit will open your eyes to the beauty behind those strange aerial unknowns.
