  • Pop Surrealism: From the James and Maureen Dorment Collection

    DiMattio Gallery at Rechnitz Hall

    Please note: The Gallery Reception has been rescheduled to March 12 from 7–9pm.

    Pop Surrealism (or Lowbrow Art) is a contemporary art movement blending surrealism’s dreamlike, unconscious themes with pop art’s imagery from popular culture, cartoons, comics, and kitsch, characterized by high technical skill, satirical commentary, and roots in underground scenes like hot-rod culture and punk rock, often featuring fantastical characters and exploring social themes with dark humor and whimsy with magazines like Juxtapoz popularizing the style. The exhibition features key artists from this movement including Mark Ryden, Camille Rose Garcia, Ana Bagayan, Swoon, Neckface, Barnaby Whitfield, John John Jessie, Tim Biskup, Liz McGrath, Mark Ryden, Aaron Johnson, Camille Rose Garcia, R. Crumb, and many more. Reception will be held on Friday, February 20th from 7 – 9 p.m.

  • Adult Education Series poster that says '60s Girl Groups taught by Kit O'Toole.

    ’60s Girl Groups, Part I

    Virtual (Zoom)

    Class Schedule: January 22, 27, & 29, 2026 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM

    The 1960s may be remembered for the British Invasion, soul, and the birth of the Beatles and art rock. However, the early-to-mid 1960s is also known for its “girl groups,” trios or quartets singing Brill Building compositions and other pop.  Motown also perfected the girl group formula, with the Supremes reigning as one of the most successful and influential acts of the 1960s. Indeed, the girl group tradition continues today with Fifth Harmony, Blackpink, and many others.  However, the genre’s roots extend back even further, to the 1960s.
