Syracuse
Curated by University Archivist Meg Mason, the exhibition explores the dramatic impact of the GI Bill and the subsequent influx of veterans on the Syracuse University campus following World War II (1945-1950).

Materials on view include: • photographs of temporary classrooms and housing for veterans, including old barracks and trailers, which filled the campus and surrounding areas; • cartoons of veteran student life on campus; • aerial shots of the main and south campuses showing changes in the landscape; • personal items from veterans who attended Syracuse University, including a cheerleading megaphone, a postcard about arriving at Syracuse, and photographs of the inside of one of the trailers used as married student housing; • Daily Orange articles about the impact of veterans on campus.

Kristine Potter: The Gray Line Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
"The Gray Line" is a series of portraits that artist Kristine Potter made at West Point Military Academy, which has trained a large number of high-ranking Army officers and eventual U.S. politicians. Raised in a military family, Potter notes that "a very particular kind of patriarchy and folklore associated with military heroism" pervaded her childhood years. In this series of photographs, made between 2005 and 2010 at the height of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, Potter attempts to disrupt the binary language that conflict seems to publicly heighten. "I'm not interested in voicing opinions of whether war is right or wrong. It exists. My voice has always focused on the human drama. These are people and they get used in the political sphere. But in the end, they're not symbols, they're humans with complex feelings and lives, and I find that compelling." Born in Dallas, Texas, Kristine earned both a BFA in Photography and a BA in Art History at the University of Georgia in 2000. From 2000 to 2003, Potter lived and worked as a professional printer in Paris, France. In 2005 she earned her MFA in Photography from Yale University. Potter has exhibited work in Paris, New York City, Miami, Atlanta and Raleigh, NC. Daniel Cooney Fine Art in New York City represents her, with a book, Manifest, forthcoming.

I Too Am America: A Song of Race and Language Community Folk Art Center
Community Folk Art Center
805 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
In Ralph Ellison's speech "What Children are Like," he discusses subcultures in African American communities and how they are reflected through language. In conjunction with the powerful words of Langston Hughes, we are inspired to explore the extent of freedom of speech and the American dream. We are reminding the community of the dangers exacerbated by language in the past and the hope that language can inspire for the future. This show will allow for direct communication through interactive sculpture; to catch a glimpse into other's experiences with candid photography and subject statements; and it will invite the viewer to observe social benchmarks of our past with poignant collages and prints. Featuring works from Jamaal Barber, Ann "Sole Sister" Johnson, Kleaver Crus/Black Joy Project.

Obscurus Point of Contact Gallery
Price: Free Point of Contact Gallery
350 W. Fayette St.,
Syracuse
Obscurus features the work of four painters from Syracuse University's master of fine arts degree program in studio arts: Tong Zhang, Teona Yamanidze, Sunyoung Lee, and Joe Turek. This international group of artists from China, Georgia, South Korea and the U.S. respectively deal in the subject matter of the obscure, that which is uncertain, not easily understood, or overshadowed. With this traditional medium as the show's only other constant, the artists create their own pictured reality in a contemporary painterly language. Cultural and ideological diversity in the group fosters a unique conversation on painting's capacity to engage with the dichotomy between knowable and unknowable. The contents of their work breach the contemplative object's place in a viewer's imagination by being identifiable as it is veiled by paint.

I Too Am America: A Song of Race and Language Community Folk Art Center
Community Folk Art Center
805 E. Genesee St.,

In Ralph Ellison's speech "What Children are Like," he discusses subcultures in African American communities and how they are reflected through language. In conjunction with the powerful words of Langston Hughes, we are inspired to explore the extent of freedom of speech and the American dream. We are reminding the community of the dangers exacerbated by language in the past and the hope that language can inspire for the future. This show will allow for direct communication through interactive sculpture; to catch a glimpse into other's experiences with candid photography and subject statements; and it will invite the viewer to observe social benchmarks of our past with poignant collages and prints. Featuring works from Jamaal Barber, Ann "Sole Sister" Johnson, Kleaver Crus/Black Joy Project.

Kristine Potter: The Gray Line Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
"The Gray Line" is a series of portraits that artist Kristine Potter made at West Point Military Academy, which has trained a large number of high-ranking Army officers and eventual U.S. politicians. Raised in a military family, Potter notes that "a very particular kind of patriarchy and folklore associated with military heroism" pervaded her childhood years. In this series of photographs, made between 2005 and 2010 at the height of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, Potter attempts to disrupt the binary language that conflict seems to publicly heighten. "I'm not interested in voicing opinions of whether war is right or wrong. It exists. My voice has always focused on the human drama. These are people and they get used in the political sphere. But in the end, they're not symbols, they're humans with complex feelings and lives, and I find that compelling." Born in Dallas, Texas, Kristine earned both a BFA in Photography and a BA in Art History at the University of Georgia in 2000. From 2000 to 2003, Potter lived and worked as a professional printer in Paris, France. In 2005 she earned her MFA in Photography from Yale University. Potter has exhibited work in Paris, New York City, Miami, Atlanta and Raleigh, NC. Daniel Cooney Fine Art in New York City represents her, with a book, Manifest, forthcoming.

Amir Kapour is a deeply assimilated Pakistani-American with the perfect job, the perfect apartment, and the perfect wife—until it all unravels over the course of a single dinner party (an unforgettably explosive scene). Winner of the Pulitzer Prize (2013) and the Tony Award for Best Play (2015), Disgraced is a timely and taut (90 minutes) drama that engages mind and heart with refreshing and stunning candor as it explores the cultural and personal fracturing Amir encounters as he pursues his ideal of the American Dream. A new and daring voice in American theatre, playwright Ayad Akhtar creates urgent dramatic connections between the stage and the world outside our doors.

Black History Month Kick Off Concert Community Folk Art Center Joshua Scott aka Josh Sings
Price: Free Community Folk Art Center
805 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
Joshua Scott aka "Josh Sings" was born in Detroit but raised in Harlem by a single mom. He recognized his talent by the age of eight, singing in the church choir and performing in various community Christmas shows. His passion and talent got him into Professional Performing Arts High School (PPAS) where his talent developed even more. Growing up listening to music from the Temptations, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, and Usher, Josh knew he wanted to become a singer/artist himself, and he would do anything to make that dream a reality. Josh was a participant on the hit TV show The Voice. Not winning made Josh even more determined about his craft. He recently has been singing and writing for various artists in the music industry, and now his debut mixtape "Now or Never" was released in November 2016. "I'm blessed to do what I love, and I won't stop until I reach the top," says the young upcoming superstar.

One Man, Two Guvnors Central New York Playhouse Dustin Czarny, director
Price: $17 CNY Playhouse
Shoppingtown Mall, Entrance No. 4 (adjacent to parking garage),
Dewitt
Brighton, England. 1963. Change is in the air, and Francis Henshall is looking to make his mark. Fired from a skiffle band and in search of work, he finds himself employed by small-time gangster Roscoe Crabbe, in town to collect a fee from his fiancee's gangster father. But Roscoe is really Rachel, posing as her own dead brother, herself in love with Stanley Stubbers (her brother's killer) who, in turn, becomes our hero's other "guvnor." Fighting a mounting sense of confusion, Francis goes out of his way to serve both bosses. But with the distractions of a pneumatic book keeper, a self-important actor and select members of the criminal fraternity (not to mention his own mammoth appetite) to contend with, how long can he keep them apart? Richard Bean's hilarious comedy received 5-star reviews from every London newspaper and was the hit of the 2012 Broadway season.

I Too Am America: A Song of Race and Language Community Folk Art Center

We are reminding the community of the dangers exacerbated by language in the past and the hope that language can inspire for the future.

Kristine Potter: The Gray Line Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
"The Gray Line" is a series of portraits that artist Kristine Potter made at West Point Military Academy, which has trained a large number of high-ranking Army officers and eventual U.S. politicians. Raised in a military family, Potter notes that "a very particular kind of patriarchy and folklore associated with military heroism" pervaded her childhood years. In this series of photographs, made between 2005 and 2010 at the height of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, Potter attempts to disrupt the binary language that conflict seems to publicly heighten. "I'm not interested in voicing opinions of whether war is right or wrong. It exists. My voice has always focused on the human drama. These are people and they get used in the political sphere. But in the end, they're not symbols, they're humans with complex feelings and lives, and I find that compelling." Born in Dallas, Texas, Kristine earned both a BFA in Photography and a BA in Art History at the University of Georgia in 2000. From 2000 to 2003, Potter lived and worked as a professional printer in Paris, France. In 2005 she earned her MFA in Photography from Yale University. Potter has exhibited work in Paris, New York City, Miami, Atlanta and Raleigh, NC. Daniel Cooney Fine Art in New York City represents her, with a book, Manifest, forthcoming.

Obscurus Point of Contact Gallery

350 W. Fayette St.,

Obscurus features the work of four painters from Syracuse University's master of fine arts degree program in studio arts: Tong Zhang, Teona Yamanidze, Sunyoung Lee, and Joe Turek. This international group of artists from China, Georgia, South Korea and the U.S. respectively deal in the subject matter of the obscure, that which is uncertain, not easily understood, or overshadowed. With this traditional medium as the show's only other constant, the artists create their own pictured reality in a contemporary painterly language. Cultural and ideological diversity in the group fosters a unique conversation on painting's capacity to engage with the dichotomy between knowable and unknowable. The contents of their work breach the contemplative object's place in a viewer's imagination by being identifiable as it is veiled by paint.

I Too Am America: A Song of Race and Language Community Folk Art Center
Community Folk Art Center
805 E. Genesee St.,
Syracuse
In Ralph Ellison's speech "What Children are Like," he discusses subcultures in African American communities and how they are reflected through language. In conjunction with the powerful words of Langston Hughes, we are inspired to explore the extent of freedom of speech and the American dream. We are reminding the community of the dangers exacerbated by language in the past and the hope that language can inspire for the future. This show will allow for direct communication through interactive sculpture; to catch a glimpse into other's experiences with candid photography and subject statements; and it will invite the viewer to observe social benchmarks of our past with poignant collages and prints. Featuring works from Jamaal Barber, Ann "Sole Sister" Johnson, Kleaver Crus/Black Joy Project.

Obscurus Point of Contact Gallery
Price: Free Point of Contact Gallery
350 W. Fayette St.,
Syracuse
Obscurus features the work of four painters from Syracuse University's master of fine arts degree program in studio arts: Tong Zhang, Teona Yamanidze, Sunyoung Lee, and Joe Turek. This international group of artists from China, Georgia, South Korea and the U.S. respectively deal in the subject matter of the obscure, that which is uncertain, not easily understood, or overshadowed. With this traditional medium as the show's only other constant, the artists create their own pictured reality in a contemporary painterly language. Cultural and ideological diversity in the group fosters a unique conversation on painting's capacity to engage with the dichotomy between knowable and unknowable. The contents of their work breach the contemplative object's place in a viewer's imagination by being identifiable as it is veiled by paint.

Price: $20 CNY Playhouse
Shoppingtown Mall, Entrance No. 4 (adjacent to parking garage),
Dewitt
Brighton, England. 1963. Change is in the air, and Francis Henshall is looking to make his mark. Fired from a skiffle band and in search of work, he finds himself employed by small-time gangster Roscoe Crabbe, in town to collect a fee from his fiancee's gangster father. But Roscoe is really Rachel, posing as her own dead brother, herself in love with Stanley Stubbers (her brother's killer) who, in turn, becomes our hero's other "guvnor." Fighting a mounting sense of confusion, Francis goes out of his way to serve both bosses. But with the distractions of a pneumatic book keeper, a self-important actor and select members of the criminal fraternity (not to mention his own mammoth appetite) to contend with, how long can he keep them apart? Richard Bean's hilarious comedy received 5-star reviews from every London newspaper and was the hit of the 2012 Broadway season.

Kristine Potter: The Gray Line Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
"The Gray Line" is a series of portraits that artist Kristine Potter made at West Point Military Academy, which has trained a large number of high-ranking Army officers and eventual U.S. politicians. Raised in a military family, Potter notes that "a very particular kind of patriarchy and folklore associated with military heroism" pervaded her childhood years. In this series of photographs, made between 2005 and 2010 at the height of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, Potter attempts to disrupt the binary language that conflict seems to publicly heighten. "I'm not interested in voicing opinions of whether war is right or wrong. It exists. My voice has always focused on the human drama. These are people and they get used in the political sphere. But in the end, they're not symbols, they're humans with complex feelings and lives, and I find that compelling." Born in Dallas, Texas, Kristine earned both a BFA in Photography and a BA in Art History at the University of Georgia in 2000. From 2000 to 2003, Potter lived and worked as a professional printer in Paris, France. In 2005 she earned her MFA in Photography from Yale University. Potter has exhibited work in Paris, New York City, Miami, Atlanta and Raleigh, NC. Daniel Cooney Fine Art in New York City represents her, with a book, Manifest, forthcoming.

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize (2013) and the Tony Award for Best Play (2015), Disgraced is a timely and taut (90 minutes) drama that engages mind and heart with refreshing and stunning candor as it explores the cultural and personal fracturing Amir encounters as he pursues his ideal of the American Dream. A new and daring voice in American theatre, playwright Ayad Akhtar creates urgent dramatic connections between the stage and the world outside our doors.

Price: Free Bird Library, 6th Floor
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Curated by University Archivist Meg Mason, the exhibition explores the dramatic impact of the GI Bill and the subsequent influx of veterans on the Syracuse University campus following World War II (1945-1950). From the University Archives, the materials on view document this critical period in the University's history and the associated changes to the campus landscape, social and cultural life, and academic programs. Materials on view include: • photographs of temporary classrooms and housing for veterans, including old barracks and trailers, which filled the campus and surrounding areas; • cartoons of veteran student life on campus; • aerial shots of the main and south campuses showing changes in the landscape; • personal items from veterans who attended Syracuse University, including a cheerleading megaphone, a postcard about arriving at Syracuse, and photographs of the inside of one of the trailers used as married student housing; • Daily Orange articles about the impact of veterans on campus.

Kristine Potter: The Gray Line Light Work Gallery
Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
"The Gray Line" is a series of portraits that artist Kristine Potter made at West Point Military Academy, which has trained a large number of high-ranking Army officers and eventual U.S. politicians. Raised in a military family, Potter notes that "a very particular kind of patriarchy and folklore associated with military heroism" pervaded her childhood years. In this series of photographs, made between 2005 and 2010 at the height of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, Potter attempts to disrupt the binary language that conflict seems to publicly heighten. "I'm not interested in voicing opinions of whether war is right or wrong. It exists. My voice has always focused on the human drama. These are people and they get used in the political sphere. But in the end, they're not symbols, they're humans with complex feelings and lives, and I find that compelling." Born in Dallas, Texas, Kristine earned both a BFA in Photography and a BA in Art History at the University of Georgia in 2000. From 2000 to 2003, Potter lived and worked as a professional printer in Paris, France. In 2005 she earned her MFA in Photography from Yale University. Potter has exhibited work in Paris, New York City, Miami, Atlanta and Raleigh, NC. Daniel Cooney Fine Art in New York City represents her, with a book, Manifest, forthcoming.
