  • Seen & Unseen, Charles Sills’ Memorial Group Art Exhibit

    Pollak Gallery

    In illuminating what has been hidden—by history, by progress, or by the limits of perception—Seen & Unseen seeks to reclaim and reframe the narratives that shape our cultural and emotional landscapes. Through painting, sculpture, photography, and mixed media, the exhibition invites both artists and audiences to consider: What do we overlook in our daily lives? What deserves to be remembered? And how do the spaces we inhabit reflect the spaces within us?

    Free and open to the public.

  • Hamlet

    Pollak Theatre

    Academy Award® nominee Benedict Cumberbatch (BBC’s Sherlock, The Imitation Game) takes on the title role of Shakespeare’s great tragedy. As a country arms itself for war, a family tears itself apart. Forced to avenge his father’s death but paralysed by the task ahead, Hamlet rages against the impossibility of his predicament, threatening both his sanity and the security of the state.

    Directed by Lyndsey Turner (Posh, Chimerica) and produced by Sonia Friedman Productions.

    $23 (Adult), $21 (Senior), $10 (Child), $5 (MU Student)

  • History of Motown Records

    Virtual (Zoom)

    Class Schedule: November 6, 13, & 20, 2025 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM

    In 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.

    Zoom Link will be provided upon registration.

  • La Bohème

    Pollak Theatre

    With its enchanting setting and spellbinding score, the world’s most popular opera is as timeless as it is heartbreaking. Franco Zeffirelli’s picture-perfect production brings 19th-century Paris to the Met stage as Puccini’s young friends and lovers navigate the joy and struggle of bohemian life. Soprano Juliana Grigoryan is the feeble seamstress Mimì, opposite tenor Freddie De Tommaso as the ardent poet Rodolfo. Keri-Lynn Wilson conducts the November 8 performance, which will be transmitted live from the Met stage to Pollak Theatre.

    $23 (general public); $21 (seniors), $10 (child) and $5 (Monmouth U. Students)
