SUMMARY:Dennis McNett and Ben Venom: Double Trouble
DESCRIPTION:Monmouth University\, Department of Art & Design\, in collaboration with Parlor Gallery in Asbury Park is pleased to present Double Trouble\, a groundbreaking exhibition uniting the strong works of Dennis McNett (Wolfbat) and Ben Venom.

For three decades\, Peck has led the Center’s comprehensive programming in the performing and visual arts\, bringing a dynamic range of cultural experiences to the community.

SUMMARY:History of Motown Records
DESCRIPTION:Class Schedule: November 6\, 13\, & 20\, 2025 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM \nIn Detroit in the 1960’s Motown Records produced hits as efficiently as the Ford Motor Company produced automobiles. It was the “Sound of Young America” conceived by Berry Gordy J and sung by performers like The Supremes\, The Temptations\, Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder. Using audio and visual content\, we’ll trace the amazing musical journey from the power soul of “Dancing in The Streets” and “I Heard It Through the Grapevine” to the psychedelic soul of “What’s Going On” and “Papa Was A Rollin’ Stone” to the pop soul of The Jackson 5. Timeless music that moved us then and moves us now. \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.

SUMMARY:Found Animation
DESCRIPTION:Workshop\nCorrie Francis Parks brings life to the inanimate through frame-by-frame manipulation of physical materials. With one hand under the camera and the other on the computer keyboard\, her films and installations maintain an organic connection to traditional production methods while fully integrating digital technology. She is Associate Professor of Visual Arts at University of Maryland\, Baltimore County (UMBC). Her book\, Fluid Frames: Experimental Animation with Sand\, Clay\, Paint and Pixels\, explores the tactile nature of moving malleable materials directly under the camera\, bringing together traditional and digital workflow through interviews with contemporary animators and workshop-style exercises. Come and actively learn techniques for creating animation. \nFor more information\, please contact Wobbe F. Koning\, Associate Professor of Animation in the Department of Art and Design wkoning@monmouth.edu. \nAll events are free and open to the public. \nArtist Bio\nCorrie Francis Parks is an inventor of animation techniques. Adopting an investigative studio practice where subject collides with substance\, each project builds upon the discoveries made in the previous\, making the arduous process of frame-by-frame creation engaging.  The results of this studio research manifest not only in short films\, but in expanded animation projects that involve projection mapping\, site-specific installations\, augmented reality and collage. \nIn addition to her award-winning short films\, which have screened at Annecy\, Hiroshima\, Ottawa\, Zagreb\, and other major festivals around the world\, Parks has created projection-based installations for Light City Baltimore (2016)\, International Media Art Biennial SEE DJERBA in Tunisia (2019)\, UnDARK Festival in Russia (2019)\, “The People’s Projector” at the Daniels & Fisher Tower in Denver (2021)\, and the Water Light Festival in Italy (2024). \nParks has been artist in residence at the MacDowell Colony\, Bogliasco Foundation\, subnet Austria\, Fundación Valparaíso and Klondike Goldrush International Historic Park.

Her book\, Fluid Frames: Experimental Animation with Sand\, Clay\, Paint and Pixels (2016) explores the tactile nature of moving malleable materials directly under the camera\, bringing together traditional and digital workflow through interviews with contemporary animators and workshop-style exercises. \nParks has been creating animation since her teenage years. She designed her own major in Animation at Dartmouth College (2001) and subsequently received her MFA in Animation and Digital Arts from University of Southern California (2006).
