SUMMARY:Ocean Bodies\, A Solo Exhibit by Kimberly Callas
DESCRIPTION:Monmouth University’s Ice House Gallery presents Ocean Bodies\, a powerful solo exhibition by multimedia artist Kimberly Callas. The exhibition will open on February 6\, 2025\, with an evening reception from 5:30 to 7:30 PM\, and will run through April 27\, 2025. Ocean Bodies offers an immersive exploration of humanity’s interconnectedness with the ocean\, drawing on symbols\, archetypes\, and ecological narratives to invite contemplation and action. \nThrough sculptures\, large-scale drawings\, and mixed-media works\, Callas examines the “crisis of meaning” at the heart of the climate crisis and advocates for a shift in consciousness toward an “ecological self.” This concept\, central to her work\, reflects humanity’s integral role within nature rather than apart from it. In Ocean Bodies\, she uses water-based materials\, such as dyed fabrics\, India ink\, and water-soluble graphite\, to invoke the sea’s physical presence while exploring the symbolic depth of whales\, the horizon\, and the ocean itself as metaphors for the psyche and cosmos. \nAmong the featured works is a series of 10-foot mixed-media drawings inspired by historical nautical charts\, which pair psychological journeys with the migration of critically endangered North Atlantic right whales. Complementing these works are colorful life-size figurative sculptures and reliefs\, 3D-printed using bio-filament\, that further explore themes of renewal and interconnection. Through these works\, Callas poses urgent questions about the loss of meaning\, wisdom\, and biodiversity in the Anthropocene. \n“The ocean has a unique way to connect with people in an immediate and emotional way. Science and data can only tell us so much; art can speak to each of us in a way that is both uniquely personal and universal. Having Kimberly as the Urban Coast Institute artist-in-residence provided inspiration for some of the artwork in the Ocean Bodies exhibit\, which will in turn inspire others. She was also able to share her creative process with her students\, conducting lectures and using her art and sculpture as a pathway to ‘discovering the ecological self.’ This work reminds us that the worlds of art and science are two sides of the same coin\,” said Tony MacDonald\, J.D.\, Director\, Urban Coast Institute. \nCallas created much of the work in Ocean Bodies during an artist residency with Monmouth University’s Urban Coast Institute\, with additional research conducted at the Archive for Research in Archetypal Symbolism (ARAS) and an artist residency at the Arts Quarter Budapest. This body of work seeks to merge art\, science\, and archetypal symbols to foster a deeper understanding of humanity’s place within the natural world and inspire meaningful environmental action. \nAbout the Artist \nKimberly Callas is a multimedia artist\, sculptor\, and the lead artist of the Social Practice project Discovering the Ecological Self. Her work delves into the human/nature relationship\, focusing on the concept of the ecological self. Recently\, she has incorporated cutting-edge technologies\, such as 3D printing with bio-filaments and CNC\, into her life-size sculptures. Art New England described her series Portrait of the Ecological Self as “unforgettable.” \nCallas’s work often involves community engagement. With her Discovering the Ecological Self social practice project\, featured in The Huffington Post\, she has led workshops across the U.S. and internationally. Her art has been showcased in prestigious galleries and museums worldwide\, earning her numerous awards and grants\, including the Pollination Project Grant\, the Urban Coast Artist-in-Residence award\, and the Puffin Foundation Grant. Her accolades include First Place in Sculpture at the Catharine Lorillard Wolfe Art Club’s Annual Exhibit in New York City. \nCallas’s recent exhibitions include the International New Media Exhibit at the CICA Museum in South Korea\, Crossing Boundaries: Art and the Future of Energy at the Pensacola Museum of Art\, and Ocean Swimmers (Entanglement)\, a solo exhibition in Budapest. In May 2025\, she will unveil a public art commission for the Lambert Castle Renovation in Paterson\, New Jersey. \nCallas holds an MFA from the New York Academy of Art and a BFA from the University of Michigan. She is currently an Associate Professor of Art at Monmouth University and maintains studios in Maine and New Jersey. \nEvent Details: \nExhibition: Ocean Bodies\nLocation: Ice House Gallery\, Monmouth University\, 400 Cedar Ave # 600\, West Long Branch\, NJ 07764\nOpening Reception: February 6\, 2025\, 5:30–7:30 PM\nExhibition Dates: February 6\, 2025 – April 27\, 2025\nGallery Hours: Mon-Fri\, 10am-5pm\, \nFor additional information\, please contact Scott Knauer\, 732.923.4786  or visit https://kimberlycallas.com/. \n

SUMMARY:What Does it Mean to Teach Right Now - Social Justice Academy Professional Development Series
DESCRIPTION:In recognition of the current climate regarding equity in education\, the Social Justice Academy will host Cornelius Minor\, a well renowned Brooklyn-eased educator.\n\nSpring Distinguished Speaker \n\n \n\n“My job as a teacher is not to merely teach the curriculum or even to just teach the students; it is to seek to understand my kids as completely as possible so that I can purposefully bend and remix curriculum to meet them.”\n\n \n\nCornelius Minor is a Brooklyn-based educator and part-time Pokemon trainer. He works with teachers\, school leaders\, and leaders of community-based organizations to support equitable literacy reform in cities (and sometimes villages) across the globe. His latest book\, “We Got This”\, explores how the work of creating more equitable school spaces is embedded in our everyday choices—specifically in the choice to really listen to kids.\n\n \n\nMinor has been featured in Education Week\, Brooklyn Magazine\, and Teaching Tolerance magazine. He has partnered with the New York City Department of Education\, the International Literacy Association\, Scholastic\, and Lesley University’s Center for Reading Recovery & Literacy Collaborative. Minor was featured in the documentary “Out of Print”\, which made its way around the film festival circuit\, and he has been a featured speaker at conferences all over the world. He is a dedicated hip-hop fan\, and on some evenings\, you can find him online saving the universe with his PlayStation or on paper saving the realm in Dungeons & Dragons.\n\n \n\nMost recently\, along with his partner and wife\, Kass Minor\, he has established The Minor Collective\, a community-based movement designed to foster sustainable change in schools. Whether working with educators and kids in Los Angeles\, Seattle\, or New York City\, Minor uses his love for technology\, literature\, and social media to bring communities together. As a teacher\, Minor draws not only on his years teaching middle school in the Bronx and Brooklyn\, but also on time spent skateboarding\, shooting hoops\, and working with young people.\n\n \n\nThese days\, Minor is learning how to bake from his two young children\, searching for an elusive pair of Jordan IVs\, and is ritually re-reading all of the 1990s era comic books that he c
