Through a series of 24 photographs\, visitors will see a chronicle of Paul’s life\, career\, and achievements: his early performances as Red Hot Red\, his marriage to and work with Mary Ford\, his explorations in the recording studio and with the electric guitar\, and of course his long and influential performing career. \nCollectively\, the images provide an intimate view into the life of an icon of the music and sound products industry and remind us that\, through it all\, music—and the industry—are inseparable from the people who make it. \nThis traveling exhibition is courtesy of The Les Paul Foundation. \nThere will be a special musical tribute concert\, “The Les Paul Experience” presented in conjunction with the exhibition on May 12 at 8PM in Pollak Theatre. \n**Exclusive Offer**: Les Paul in His Own Words\n\nBy Les Paul and Michael Cochran\nForward by Paul McCartney\nHard cover 368 pages\, 9 1/2” x 12” x 1 1/2”\nSpecial Offer – $50 + tax (Retails for $75)\n \nThe charm of this book is “listening” to Les Paul tell his story. Michael Cochran captures Les’ way of telling stories and Les had plenty to tell. This large\, beautiful book encompasses the fascinating life of the musician and inventor who seemed to live forever. Les takes the reader from his childhood in Waukesha\, Wisconsin through his adventures in St. Louis\, Chicago\, LA\, New Jersey and New York. Les explains how he developed the solid-body guitar and endless recording techniques that changed the world of music. \nThe high quality color prints and photos include many of Les Paul\, his extensive guitar collection\, musician friends\, his inventions and his home recording studios in LA and New Jersey. \nPre-order and pick up the night of show or anytime Monday-Friday 9am – 5 pm at the Pollak Box Office.

The exhibition features a selection of some eighteen works. All are from Monmouth University’s extensive collection of Jacob Landau’s work\, comprising over 300 prints\, drawings\, and paintings. The collection was gifted to Monmouth University in 2008 by the Jacob Landau Institute of Roosevelt\, NJ. \nReception: Thursday\, April 13\, from 4– 6 pm \nAbout Jacob Landau:\nBorn in Philadelphia in 1917\, Landau launched his career as an illustrator\, winning national prizes at age 16 and a scholarship to the Philadelphia College of Art. He went on to have over sixty one-person shows\, featuring a wide range of drawings and paintings. The recipient of numerous awards\, including Guggenheim and National Arts Council grants\, many of his works are featured in permanent collections\, such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. A master teacher\, he retired as professor emeritus at New York’s Pratt Institute. In 1996\, he was awarded an honorary Doctorate in Fine Arts by Monmouth University. \nFor Jacob Landau “art enables us to see the world whole and undivided.” And at its center lies the artist’s desire for justice in this world. The current exhibit reveals that his entire career was driven by such a quest from an early work with conte crayon\, “Two Women in Market” and his “Mine Strike at Auchel” through an “Einstein” portrait\, as well as watercolor pochoirs of “Malachi” and “Isaiah” who call for justice and whose bold colors and sinuous lines derive from their respective stained-glass windows that Landau created for the Keneseth Israel Synagogue in Elkins Park\, PA (just outside Philadelphia)\, two of ten windows\, each towering 5’x20’\, that flank the prayer hall. \nLandau’s Isaiah and Malachi watercolors exhilarate\, even as they confront the viewer. We realize that the prophet does not predict the future but reveals the present\, witnessing injustice\, condemning it\, and proclaiming alternatives—actions. Clearly\, Isaiah’s words pierced the artist’s heart: “Seek justice\, relieve the oppressed.” \n And we see Landau’s struggle in his quest as a citizen of our world and as an artist in a series of sketches and preparatory drawings for his portrait of Malachi as well as those of Amos\, Hosea\, and Jeremiah. We are also given an image of a world without justice\, Ezekiel’s Vison of Dry Bones\, and a glimpse of a promised new world to come\, New Jerusalem. \n  \n  URL:https://www.monmouth.edu/events/event/jacob-landau-the-prophetic-quest-2/ LOCATION:Guggenheim Memorial Library\, Room 101\, 400 Cedar Ave\, West Long Branch\, NJ\, 07764\, United States CATEGORIES:Art and Design,Art Exhibitions,Arts at Monmouth,Free ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.monmouth.edu/events/wp-content/uploads/sites/19/2018/07/landau201400x600_3.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230417T133000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230417T141500 DTSTAMP:20260406T080030 CREATED:20230303T215048Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230303T215224Z UID:40810111835-1681738200-1681740900@www.monmouth.edu SUMMARY:Intro to Career Development DESCRIPTION:Come learn more about career development with Coach Alec.

One solution that is well within the power of most people is strengthening the suburban environment. Environments highly impacted by human intervention especially those with a high proportion of non-native plants are ecologically less stable and less resilient to the assaults of climate change. Environmental remediation by removal of invasive plants and replanting or planting native plants in areas disturbed by humans is partial ecological restoration. As part of the Climate Crisis Teach-In\, Catherine Duckett\, Ph.D.\, will lead interested students and other members of the community in an ecological restoration project on Elinor Ave at Ross Lake Park and at adjacent Van Court Park. Volunteers will be shown how to identify the most common invasive vines and weeds. Volunteers will cut and remove these “invasives”s. Areas suitable for replanting will be planted with hardy native species such as goldenrod\, violets and snakeroot.

Written by playwright Loften Mitchell who was part of a groundswell of writers that contributed to the Black American theatre movement in the 1960s\, the play is a masterfully crafted and poetic recitation of a history that began long before the slave trade. \n“Mitchell reached his artistic heights as a dramatist in TELL PHARAOH\, an eloquent ‘theater-at-the-lectern’ history of black people.”  —Darwin T.
