  • The Native American Music Experience

     The Bruce Springsteen Center for American Music and Hard Rock International are proud to announce The Native American Music Experience, a unique, free concert celebrating the rich history and enduring legacy of Indigenous music in America.

    The concert will take place at Monmouth University’s Pollak Theatre on Wednesday, June 3 at 7:30 p.m. and is part of the Springsteen Center’s week-long series of grand opening activities.

    Hard Rock International, which is owned by the Seminole Tribe of Florida, is also supporting the Bruce Springsteen Center for American Music through financial contributions, memorabilia donations from its globally recognized collection of more than 89,000 authentic music artifacts, and partnership in the entertainment space.

    “Indigenous music is foundational to the story of American music,” said Robert Santelli, founding executive director of the Springsteen Center. “This concert kicks off our relationship with Hard Rock International and reflects our mission to explore the full breadth of American music. Our aim is to ensure that the voices and musical traditions of Indigenous artists are recognized, celebrated and better understood.”

    “On behalf of the Seminole Tribe of Florida and Hard Rock International, we are proud to partner with the Bruce Springsteen Center for American Music to increase awareness and understanding of Indigenous music,” said Jim Allen, Chairman of Hard Rock International. “Seminole music and Native American music in general plays a major role in the history and culture of America and the world.”

    The Native American Music Experience will feature Indigenous artists from around the United States and Canada and performances of both traditional and contemporary music, including performers from the Seminole Tribe of Florida.

    Artists performing include Gary Farmer and the Dish and Spoon Band, Cary Morin and Pura Fe’, the Osceola Brothers, Spencer Battiest & Doc Native, 28’ Native and Flow, Felipe Rose, Levi Platero, and Julia Keefe’s Mildred Bailey Project, with former U.S. Poet Laureate Joy Harjo in a featured musical performance.

    The evening’s MC will be Brett Maybee, syndicated producer and radio host for The Mainstream with Brett Maybee and Gaeno radio programs.

    “The Native American Music Experience is part of the Springsteen Center’s ongoing efforts to present public programs that connect music to history, culture, and identity,” continued Santelli. “Having Hard Rock as a partner allows the Springsteen Center the resources and support necessary to become an all-inclusive music institution.”

    Tickets for The Native American Music Experience are free, though registration is required.

  • Exhibition on Screen – Cézanne: Portraits of a Life

    EXHIBITION ON SCREEN is thrilled to present one of the most talked-about exhibitions. Dedicated to the portrait work of Paul Cézanne, the exhibition opens in Paris before travelling to London and Washington.

    Featuring interviews with curators and experts from the National Portrait Gallery London, MoMA New York, National Gallery of Art Washington, and Musée d’Orsay Paris, and correspondence from the artist himself, the film takes audiences beyond the exhibition to the places Cézanne lived and worked and sheds light on an artist who is perhaps the least known of all the impressionists – until now.

  • Exhibition on Screen – Degas: Passion for Perfection

    EXHIBITION ON SCREEN journeys from the streets of Paris to the heart of the superb Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, whose extensive collection of Degas’ works is the most representative in Britain.

    With exclusive access to view rare and diverse works, Degas: Passion for Perfection offers a unique insight into Degas’ personal and creative life. The film uncovers the fascinating story of Degas’ obsessive pursuit for perfection through both experimentation with new techniques and lessons learnt from studying the past masters.

    Never fully satisfied, many of Degas’ drawings and sculptures were kept in private during his lifetime but now, through close examination, they can be seen as some of the most beautifully detailed and expressive works in the modern era. Using written accounts by friends and commentators, and the narration of letters written by Degas himself, this film reveals a more complex truth behind one of the most influential French artists of the late 19th-century and serves as an exploration of the complex workings of Degas’ artistic mind.

  • Exhibition on Screen – Turner & Constable

    Celebrating the 250th anniversary of their births, this unmissable new documentary explores Turner and Constable’s intertwined lives and legacies alongside the groundbreaking Tate exhibition.

    Two of Britain’s greatest painters, J.M.W. Turner and John Constable were also the greatest of rivals. Born within a year of each other, both used landscape painting to reflect the changing world around them. Tate Britain is bringing these two greats together for a groundbreaking exhibition, in London from November 2025 to April 2026, and Exhibition on Screen once again has exclusive and privileged access to bring their extraordinary art and remarkable stories to the big screen in February so that you can enjoy both film and exhibition together. Discover unexpected sides to both artists with intimate views of sketchbooks and personal items and insights from leading experts.

    Turner’s blazing sunsets and sublime scenes from his travels and Constable’s idealised depictions of beloved places from home whipped the public of the time into a frenzy of enthusiasm. Constable represents the very best of the old school of realism and pastoral nostalgia; Turner, an exciting new way of depicting emotion and dreamlike impressions. Critics compared their starkly different styles to a clash of ‘fire and water’. Don’t miss this opportunity to see these greats side-by-side, as they so often were in life, on the big screen for the first time.

This personal and intimate film offers privileged access to her works, her home, her studio and highlights the source of her feverish creativity, her resilience and her unmatched lust for life, beauty and revolution.
