Deborah Roberts: Consequences of being
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Consequences of being brings together large-format paintings, works on paper, and— for the first time in Deborah Roberts' career—ceramic sculpture. The exhibition marks a significant expansion of the Austin, Texas–based artist's practice and a deepening investigation into the histories and legacies of colonialism. Roberts, who received her MFA from Syracuse University, uses collage to approach identity as something fragmented and continually reconstructed, reclaiming found materials and images to examine how Black bodies are seen, positioned, and understood globally.

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

New York-based artist Amy Lincoln paints dreamy, atmospheric landscapes and seascapes recalling her childhood under the overcast skies of the Pacific Northwest. At once tranquil and vibrant, otherworldly and familiar, Lincoln's imagined scenes of radiant suns, calm seas, and vivid foliage present a stylized version of the natural world in every color of the rainbow. An exploration of the phenomena of light reflection and refraction, Fractured Light is Lincoln's first solo museum exhibition.

LIFE: Six Women Photographers
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

LIFE founder and editor-in-chief, Henry R. Luce, was convinced that American political, economic, and cultural power would, and should, dominate the era he defined as the "American Century." Photojournalism, or "photo essays" as he coined them, could effectively shape an authentically American vision of the United States as an international power, inspiring its people, in Luce's words, "to live and work and fight with vigor and enthusiasm." By giving readers vivid images of industrial strength, women and the family, race relations, World War II, labor, and the Cold War, the photographers in this exhibition contributed to this view of the United States as a global player seeking its identity on the world stage.

Six pioneering female photographers were among those who contributed to LIFE's pursuit of this American character: Margaret Bourke-White, Marie Hansen, Martha Holmes, Lisa Larsen, Nina Leen, and Hansel Mieth.

Nanni Valentini: Interspaces
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Over the half-century span of its Ceramic National exhibitions, the Everson launched the career of countless American ceramists. In 1942 and 1958, the scope of the Ceramic Nationals became international, showcasing talents from both the Western hemisphere and Europe. On the advice of Italian artist Lucio Fontana, a brilliant ceramist in his own right, the 1958 Ceramic International introduced Nanni Valentini to the world. Valentini received a coveted purchase prize, and his work was exhibited on that year's circuit, which included the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, the Cleveland Museum of Art, and the Detroit Institute of Arts.

A Long Look: Documentary Photography, 1888-2016
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

A Long Look: Documentary Photography, 1888-2016 traces more than a century of photographers turning their lenses toward the world as witnesses, advocates, and storytellers. From the late 19th century, when advances in camera technology first allowed photographers to record spontaneous moments, to the bold and colorful images of today, documentary photography has shaped how people see the world, both its past and its present.

Documentary photographers traditionally immerse themselves in their subjects. Bruce Davidson spent 10 days living in the mining communities of South Wales producing his Welsh Miners portfolio. Aaron Siskind's Harlem Document project plays out over nine years, showing the vibrant life of Black Americans in Harlem in the 1930s. Donna Ferrato has spent decades documenting survivors of domestic violence and advocating for their welfare. Documentary photographers reveal how sustained engagement with their subjects, over ten days or several decades, produces images that challenge stereotypes, humanize the unfamiliar, and deepen public understanding.

A Long Look invites viewers to consider the significance of documentary photography as a medium, asking how photographs shape collective memory and inspire social awareness. Documentary photographers must often navigate the tension between art and journalism, frequently occupying a grey area between the two.

CNY Artist Initiative: Ann Clark: Interior Landscapes
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Ann Clarke is a celebrated fiber artist originally from Rochester, NY. Clarke's newest series, Interior Landscapes, includes large-scale rugs installed on walls for museum visitors to contemplate. Dreamlike images of trees challenge us to consider the vulnerability of our wooded landscapes. Oversized, empty chairs remind us of the consequences of loss — of both people and the environment in which we make our homes.

Realities Within
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Realities Within presents four enduring genres of artmaking to explore how artists shape, frame, and inhabit the world. Whether a landscape, cityscape, still life, or representation of the human body, these works show how each artist's reality is impacted by their lived experience. Separated by genre and installed "salon-style" — a term inspired by the 18th and 19th century Paris Salons, where paintings were hung from floor to ceiling, covering every inch of wall space — the dense arrangement invites close looking and visual comparison, encouraging viewers to find connections across time, style, and subject matter.

Disney's Frozen: The Broadway Musical
Syracuse Stage

Archbold Theater, Syracuse Stage
820 E. Genesee St., Syracuse

Sisterhood, stirring songs, and spectacular adventure.

In the Kingdom of Arendelle, Anna and Elsa enjoy a sheltered royal life, as they prepare to one day inherit a throne that is rightfully theirs. But when Elsa's budding powers almost lead to tragedy, she's forced to bury her icy talents — until they erupt, unleashing an eternal winter that threatens to destroy everything she loves. Determined to save her home and her sister, Anna ventures into the treacherous storm, where she must reunite with Elsa if she ever hopes to thaw the cold hearts intent on keeping them apart. A story of sisterhood and embracing your true self, Disney's majestic musical riff on Hans Christian Andersen's "The Snow Queen" is a thrilling theatrical event with stirring songs, spectacular adventure, and one magical snowman.

Music and lyrics by Kristen Anderson Lopez and Robert Lopez, book by Jennifer Lee.

LIFE founder and editor-in-chief, Henry R. Luce, was convinced that American political, economic, and cultural power would, and should, dominate the era he defined as the "American Century." Photojournalism, or "photo essays" as he coined them, could effectively shape an authentically American vision of the United States as an international power, inspiring its people, in Luce's words, "to live and work and fight with vigor and enthusiasm." By giving readers vivid images of industrial strength, women and the family, race relations, World War II, labor, and the Cold War, the photographers in this exhibition contributed to this view of the United States as a global player seeking its identity on the world stage.

Six pioneering female photographers were among those who contributed to LIFE's pursuit of this American character: Margaret Bourke-White, Marie Hansen, Martha Holmes, Lisa Larsen, Nina Leen, and Hansel Mieth.

Determined to save her home and her sister, Anna ventures into the treacherous storm, where she must reunite with Elsa if she ever hopes to thaw the cold hearts intent on keeping them apart. A story of sisterhood and embracing your true self, Disney's majestic musical riff on Hans Christian Andersen's "The Snow Queen" is a thrilling theatrical event with stirring songs, spectacular adventure, and one magical snowman.

A Long Look: Documentary Photography, 1888-2016
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

A Long Look: Documentary Photography, 1888-2016 traces more than a century of photographers turning their lenses toward the world as witnesses, advocates, and storytellers. From the late 19th century, when advances in camera technology first allowed photographers to record spontaneous moments, to the bold and colorful images of today, documentary photography has shaped how people see the world, both its past and its present.

Documentary photographers traditionally immerse themselves in their subjects. Bruce Davidson spent 10 days living in the mining communities of South Wales producing his Welsh Miners portfolio. Aaron Siskind's Harlem Document project plays out over nine years, showing the vibrant life of Black Americans in Harlem in the 1930s. Donna Ferrato has spent decades documenting survivors of domestic violence and advocating for their welfare. Documentary photographers reveal how sustained engagement with their subjects, over ten days or several decades, produces images that challenge stereotypes, humanize the unfamiliar, and deepen public understanding.

A Long Look invites viewers to consider the significance of documentary photography as a medium, asking how photographs shape collective memory and inspire social awareness. Documentary photographers must often navigate the tension between art and journalism, frequently occupying a grey area between the two.

25 Million Stitches: One Stitch, One Refugee
ArtRage Gallery

Price: Free
ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave., Syracuse

25 Million Stitches, a global community art and activism project, was initiated by California artist Jennifer Kim Sohn in 2019 to visually document the enormity of the number of refugees in the world and to sustain a concern for the refugees in the minds of global citizens. Over 2,300 stitchers participated — from all 50 states and 37 countries. ArtRage will be exhibiting a selection of the nearly 400 panels that make up the project.

More than just a visual exhibit, the installation offers an immersive experience that prompts us to confront the realities of displacement on a profoundly personal level. On view during the USA's 250th anniversary, this exhibition will honor Syracuse's identity as a refugee resettlement community while also addressing the USA's current anti-immigration policies.

Disney's Frozen: The Broadway Musical
Syracuse Stage

Archbold Theater, Syracuse Stage
820 E. Genesee St., Syracuse

Sisterhood, stirring songs, and spectacular adventure.

In the Kingdom of Arendelle, Anna and Elsa enjoy a sheltered royal life, as they prepare to one day inherit a throne that is rightfully theirs. But when Elsa's budding powers almost lead to tragedy, she's forced to bury her icy talents — until they erupt, unleashing an eternal winter that threatens to destroy everything she loves. Determined to save her home and her sister, Anna ventures into the treacherous storm, where she must reunite with Elsa if she ever hopes to thaw the cold hearts intent on keeping them apart. A story of sisterhood and embracing your true self, Disney's majestic musical riff on Hans Christian Andersen's "The Snow Queen" is a thrilling theatrical event with stirring songs, spectacular adventure, and one magical snowman.

Music and lyrics by Kristen Anderson Lopez and Robert Lopez, book by Jennifer Lee.
