SUMMARY:Journeys of Interdependence: Portraits of First-Generation Identity in Higher Education
DESCRIPTION:The lives and experiences of students\, families\, faculty and professional staff who identify as first-generation are the subject of increased attention in higher education across the United States. The success of programs\, initiatives\, and interventions mostly focus on measurable student “outcomes” but may often miss the complicated narratives of aspiration\, sacrifice\, accomplishment and identity work first-generation students\, families\, faculty\, staff and communities navigate.  Portraiture can make visible the triumphs and challenges of being first in the family in higher educational spaces. This juried exhibition features works that highlight the  first-generation college experience through portraiture  made in a variety of media\, including painting\, drawing\, sculpture\, photography\, printmaking and textiles. \nArtist Reception: Rescheduled to Friday\, March 1 from 5-7 pm. RSVP to the reception here

SUMMARY:The Cardboard Show
DESCRIPTION:Monmouth University\, in conjunction with Parlor Gallery is thrilled to kick off the year with a captivating art exhibition that transcends traditional boundaries. Prepare to immerse yourself in a world of limitless imagination at the much-anticipated Cardboard Show\, an extraordinary celebration of free-form and experimental creativity. \nThe Cardboard Show is the result: a collection of large-scale sculptures and forms in three distinct voices\, united by medium\, friendship\, and a commitment to a playful approach to creating art for its own sake. These three artists sequestered themselves in Parlor Gallery last January and opened the doors to the public a month later to share their fantastical and unique cardboard creations in an immersive type of presentation. For the continuation of this project\, the artists will follow the same practice of collaborating in the same space at the same time\, building these wonderous creations on site starting January 16th\, 2024\, and will continue to construct and design the exhibition until the opening night on February 9th\, 2024. \nDemo and Meet & Greet:\nThursday\, March 21st. Demo from 3-4 and continuation of the Meet & Greet from 4 – 6. \nOpening Night Reception: Friday\, February 9th from 6-9pm. In addition to the opening reception\, there will also be an artist meet & greet and informal artist talk during the exhibition. \nUnveiling the Magic:\nThe Cardboard Show is a testament to the power of collaboration. Three visionary artists—Porkchop\, Bradley Hoffer\, and Jason Stumpf—invite you to witness the evolution of their fantastical creations. Having sequestered themselves in Parlor Gallery last January\, the artists opened their doors to the public a month later\, sharing the enchantment of their unique cardboard world. \nCreating Wonders in Real-Time:\nAs part of the ongoing project\, these artists will once again unite under one roof\, infusing life into their cardboard wonders starting January 16th\, 2024. Witness the magic unfold as they construct and design this extraordinary exhibition\, culminating in the grand opening on February 9th\, 2024. Join us on a journey where art transcends boundaries\, fueled by the collaborative spirit of three local artists and friends. In addition to the cardboard sculptures\, each artist will also be exhibiting a selection of each of their respective work. \nAbout the Artists: \nBradley Hoffer is a multi-disciplinary artist\, designer\, carpenter\, and maker of original and preconceived concepts. Living and working most of his life in NJ; he received a BFA in sculpture from Mason Gross school of Visual Art at Rutgers. Bradley’s distinct style/work is recognizable using continuous line along with a balance of colors. For this show at Monmouth University\, he is exploring a new complex level of layers in three dimensions. Cardboard is the medium that is being used to accomplish the new sculptures. Bradley is also revealing a collection of paintings that have been in the works for the past 6 years. \nJason Stumpf is multidisciplinary artist based in Asbury Park\, NJ. A woodworker for over 30 years\, his work ranges from sculpture and furniture to cabinetry and wooden boats. His work is influenced by a fascination with structure\, minimalism\, and materiality.  Jason furniture designs often take inspiration from archaic forms and techniques. Those influences are expressed through a minimalist\, modern design ethos. His sculptures stretch that practical design aesthetic into abstracted forms and ideas. \nPorkchop is a multi-disciplinary artist from New Jersey. He has an MFA in Sculpture from VCU and a BFA in Fine Arts from University of the Arts in Philadelphia. Porkchop has established a great presence through his magnificently scaled murals\, including the extensively documented scenes he composed along the Asbury Park Boardwalk in conversation with the sea. Narrative is a prevalent theme in his work. Denizens and visitors to Monmouth County have been enjoying Porkchop’s vibrant and colorful artwork and murals for years\, but in most recent manifestation\, the artist strips his works of his normally vivid palette and instead employs intentionally ritualistic and graphic monochromatic designs and symbols accented with Gold. Influenced by ancient history\, mythology\, religion and literature\, the artist Porkchop sources out\, manipulates\, and casts familiar objects. He then painstakingly recreates their surfaces giving them a new existence into a dark and curious storyline. The application of paint into his intentional ritualistic designs followed by flawless coats of glossy resin is an act of pure precision and care\, like the work of a surgeon or mortician. There are often unexpected but pleasant marriages of imagery and object. By stripping these pieces of his usual vibrant palette\, Porkchop’s choice of black & white emphasizes the narrative in the works\, which becomes difficult to ignore. Presenting these pieces in symmetry creates an alter that pulls the stories altogether.

SUMMARY:Don't Stop Believin': Race and Class in Rock Music
DESCRIPTION:Class Schedule: Tuesdays – February 20 & 27 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM \nSince exploding on the scene in the late 1970s\, Journey has inspired generations of fans with hit after hit. This two-session virtual course taught by David Hamilton Golland dispels rehashed myths and also shows how race and class in popular music contributed to their breakout success. As the economy collapsed and as people abandoned the spirit of Woodstock in the late 70s\, Journey used the rhythm of soul and Motown to inspire hope in primarily white teenagers’ lives. Decades later\, the band and their signature song remain classics\, and now\, with singer Arnel Pineda\, they are again a fixture in major stadiums worldwide. \nDavid Hamilton Golland is a historian\, professor\, and writer with a wide background in twentieth-century social and cultural history. He is dean of the School of Humanities and Social Sciences at Monmouth University and founder of The Journey Zone (journey-zone.com)\, the leading source for all things Journey over two decades. \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Glen Phillips & Shawn Mullins
DESCRIPTION:Prepare to be swept away by an extraordinary evening of acoustic brilliance featuring two musical legends – Glen Phillips and Shawn Mullins. These artists\, each with their unique journey and captivating melodies\, are coming together to create a musical experience that will resonate deep within your soul. \nGlen Phillips\nAs lead singer and main songwriter of Toad the Wet Sprocket and a prolific solo artist\, Glenn Phillips has left an indelible mark on the world of folk/pop music. His honest\, introspective lyrics and soul-stirring melodies have forged a deep connection with fans over the years. After a hiatus with Toad\, he ventured into a solo career and a multitude of collaborations with fellow artists\, showcasing his musical diversity and depth. With his latest album\, “THERE IS SO MUCH HERE\,” Glenn delves into the joys and sorrows of everyday life\, beautifully accompanied by talented musicians\, including Dave Depper (Death Cab For Cutie)\, Ji Tanzer (Blue Cranes)\, and John Morgan Askew. \nShawn Mullins\nShawn Mullins’ musical odyssey has been nothing short of spectacular. From his humble beginnings in the Atlanta music scene to critical acclaim and Grammy nominations\, Mullins has truly made a mark. His No. 1 hit “Lullaby” from the 1998 album “Soul’s Core” is a timeless classic\, followed by “Beautiful Wreck” from “9th Ward Pickin’ Parlor.” His songs have been the soundtrack of our lives\, featured in the 2000 Summer Olympics and iconic shows like Dawson’s Creek and Scrubs. Shawn Mullins’ versatility also extends to his co-writing of the Zac Brown Band’s chart-topper “Toes.” Today\, he’s revisiting his roots with “Soul’s Core Revival\,” breathing new life into his music for the 20th anniversary.
