Here & Now: LUAG Celebrates 100 Years with 100 Local Artists
From the engineering and artistry of the original Lenape people, through the upheavals of the steel and railroad industries, to the hi-tech manufacturing of today, makers and innovators of all kinds have found a home in the Lehigh Valley. Perhaps unsurprisingly, this maker mindset found its way into the DNA of Lehigh University, shaping both artists and engineers and setting the stage for Lehigh University Art Galleries (LUAG).
Tracing our roots to 1926, the year of the first known art exhibition on campus, LUAG has grown into a vibrant museum with robust programs and a collection of over 20,000 works of art.
In honor of this milestone, LUAG presents an open call to a juried exhibition of 100 local artists reflecting the wide range of artistic practices thriving in our community today. Artists (aged 18+ years) in a range of media are encouraged to submit work to this salon-style exhibition which will take place in the LUAG Main Gallery.*
The exhibition will coincide with an initiative to make significant purchases of works by local artists for the university’s collection.
*Please see detailed submission guidelines for more information.
Submit your artwork here.
Submissions close January 5 at midnight (11:59 pm)
_____________________________
WHO CAN APPLY?
Artists with any level of experience aged 18+ years living and working within the Lehigh Valley and neighboring communities within a 35-mile radius of Bethlehem, PA.

Tribal Elder of the Delaware Nation (Lenape) Visits Central
2024-11-02 13:30 - 14:30 | Old Chapel, 412 Heckewelder Place, Bethlehem, PA, 18018
Tribal Elder of the Delaware Nation (Lenape) Visits Central
Join us on Saturday, November 2 at 1:30 p.m. in the Old Chapel for a talk by Lenape retired tribal elder and member of the Delaware tribe of Oklahoma, John Thomas. For thousands upon thousands of years, the Lenape people lived in this region, until being driven off this land by European settlers, and forced removals from the 18th and early 19th centuries. The 18th century Moravian church was engaged in mission work with the local Lenape people, working, worshipping (and being buried) alongside them in the 18th century. There are ancestral memories of the Moravian Church and their mission work, along with the accompaniment with the forced removals.
One of the federally recognized Delaware Tribes is based in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, and their retired tribal elder, John Thomas, has already made a visit in December 2023 to Bethlehem, toured the Archives, God’s Acre and met with several members of Central. Now we have the opportunity on November 2 to welcome John back for a talk to hear about his experiences and following his talk, there will be the option to join Diane Shaw and John at God’s Acre for a tour of several Native American graves. We hope that this conversation with John Thomas and Lenape tribe of Oklahoma can continue into a larger spring program, following the 2023 Northern Province Synod’s resolution on acknowledging historic trauma and setting forward with dialogue and healing with indigenous peoples.

Hope Is the Thing With Feathers: How Bird Watchers and AI Are Reshaping How We See and Conserve Birds
2024-11-06 17:00 - 18:30 | PA
The Friends of the Lehigh University Libraries invite you to join us on Wednesday, November 6, 2024 from 5:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. via Zoom for Hope Is the Thing With Feathers: How Bird Watchers and AI Are Reshaping How We See and Conserve Birds, presented by Dr. Miyoko Chu, Senior Director of Communications at Cornell Lab of Ornithology.
For millennia, birds have captured people’s imaginations with their beauty, songs, and soaring flights. Now, with our planet facing a biodiversity crisis, birds are in trouble worldwide. In the U.S. and Canada, nearly 3 billion breeding birds have been lost in the past 50 years, and half of bird species are declining. Take a look at the future of bird conservation as Dr. Miyoko Chu shares how digital information platforms, AI technology, and growing numbers of bird enthusiasts are generating unprecedented data and insights about 11,000 bird species around the world—with the hope of saving them while there is still time.
The free public talk, which is supported by the Friends of the Lehigh University Libraries, coincides with the Special Collections Feathers and Folios exhibit in Linderman Library.
The lecture will be followed by a Q&A session led by Boaz Nadav-Manes, Lehigh’s University Librarian. Advance registration required. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
About the speaker
Dr. Miyoko Chu is the senior director of Communications at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, a nonprofit organization that engages people of all walks of life in understanding and protecting birds and nature. An ornithologist and science writer, Dr. Chu led the team that created the Cornell Lab’s free Merlin Bird ID app which has been downloaded by more than 10 million people around the world. She is the author of Songbird Journeys: Four Seasons in the Lives of Migratory Birds; Birdscapes, a Pop-Up Celebration of Bird Songs in Stereo Sound; and America’s Favorite Birds: 40 Beautiful Birds to Color.

Access Culture: Moving Access From Compliant to Creative
2024-11-06 18:00, 2024-11-06 18:00 - 21:00 | virtual
This one-day workshop serves as an introduction to media accessibility, focusing on audio description (AD). Our philosophy and approach to producing AD is framed in:

Community centered
Culturally inclusive
Creative solutions over legal compliance

This workshop is intended for artists, arts administrators, educators, and anyone with interest in arts and cultural accessibility! Folks who attend this workshop will leave with ways to view audio description through a culturally inclusive, community-centered lens, and promote creativity as a motivator for accessibility over legal compliance. In this workshop, the presenters will cover self-descriptions, industry definitions of accessibility features, and how to move beyond the industry’s parameters, prioritizing accessibility at the organizational level, moving from compliance to higher creativity, and cross-disability access. We will have a presentation, samples of creative access, discussions, and a writing activity.
What to expect:
We’ll have an opportunity to review access needs at the beginning and prioritize attendees’ comfort. Large and small group discussions, multiple breaks, play and discuss video and audio samples of captions and audio description, eating and drinking are fine.
Please see the general outline for the session below:

Introduction to facilitators modeling self-descriptions
Industry definitions of AD and captions and moving beyond
Why does your organization prioritize accessibility?
Moving from Compliance to Creative accessibility
Cross-disability accessibility
Samples and large group discussion
Interactive activity
Q and A and open discussion

PLAY PREMIERE: "Ladies, How Dare You!" A musical comedy by Liv Cummins & Rob Hartmann
2024-11-08 19:00 - 2024-11-09 21:00 | Lehigh Valley Charter High School for the Arts, 321 E 3rd St, Bethlehem, PA, United States
The Lehigh Valley Charter High School for the Arts (Charter Arts) Theatre Department, in collaboration with the Charter Arts Music Department, continues its fall season with the world premiere production of “Ladies, How Dare You!”, a musical comedy written by Liv Cummins and Rob Hartmann with music by Rob Hartmann, November 8-10, 2024.
The story is set in 1913 amidst the Womens’ Suffrage Movement with themes and sentiments that will resonate with contemporary audiences, especially during the current political landscape. This beautifully crafted story is centered around two unlikely traveling companions, wealthy socialite Lucretia Kingsley and her hired hatmaker, immigrant Dorothy Jones, who must make it to the Suffrage Parade in Washington D.C. against all odds. The heart of the piece lies in the relationships they develop with the people in the small town where their carriage breaks down. As they form connections and invest in one another’s lives, they begin to question their preconceived notions of what it means to be a woman, what it means to be an American, and what it means to build community. All are affected and eventually inspired to find a new path forward, bravely paving the way for change.
With direction by Kelly Minner-Bickert, and music direction Erica Dickson, this production will move audiences with its rollicking ragtime Americana-flavored score, old-fashioned vaudevillian hijinks, disguises, and Shakespearean mistaken identities as it explores themes of gender roles, anti-immigrant sentiments, and urban and rural clashes.
Minner-Bickert shares, “Audiences will be blown away by the talent of our young artists who have courageously taken on these characters for which there is no blueprint. Watching our kids rise to the challenge of such a deep and layered new work has been exhilarating. With powerful and poignant music and lyrics, I’m certain audiences will leave feeling moved and thoroughly impressed.”
Tickets are $7-$12 and available for purchase at CharterArts.org. Evening performances November 8 & 9 at 7 PM. Matinee performance November 10 at 2 PM.

Student-Led Series: Into the Playhouse: Exploring the Life of Nellie Mae Rowe
2024-11-12 17:00 - 18:00 | Lehigh University Art Galleries, 420 E Packer Ave, Bethlehem, PA, United States
Join student museum educators, Kira Miller ’26 and Elsy Tavarez ’27, as they highlight the importance of identity, culture, politics, and more in the life and works of Nellie Mae Rowe!
Around 1950 after the passing of her second husband, Nellie Mae Rowe decided she wanted to be an artist. By following her aspirations, Nellie began making art from household items, chewing gum, anything she could find. She created not only a space for her work, but her own world of it called The Playhouse. Step into the playhouse with us to learn more about Nellie Mae Rowe’s art! Within the tour there will also be interactive activities to help attendees truly see and connect with the work of Nellie Mae Rowe.
Register in advance here.
Really Free: The Radical Art of Nellie Mae Rowe presents an exhibition of 58 works by the self-taught Georgia artist, set against the backdrop of the civil rights movement in the South of the 1960s. Rowe (1900-1982) saw art making as a radical act of self-expression and liberation that took many forms including found-object installations, handmade dolls, chewing-gum sculptures, and hundreds of drawings. The focus of her creative output was a “Playhouse” where she welcomed visitors, situated along a major thoroughfare in Vinings, Georgia.
Organized by the High Museum of Art (Atlanta) from their leading collection of Rowe’s art, Really Free is the first major exhibition of her work in more than twenty years. The exhibition offers an unprecedented view of how she cultivated her drawing practice late in life, following the deaths of her second husband and her longtime employer. Starting with colorful and at times simple sketches on found materials, the works move toward her most celebrated, highly complex compositions on paper. Through photographs and other references to her Playhouse, the exhibition is also the first to put her drawings in direct conversation with her art environment.

Connect & Create: Dream Drawing and Meditation
2024-11-19 17:30 - 19:00 | Lehigh University Art Galleries, 420 E Packer Ave, Bethlehem, PA, 18015, United States
This workshop invites participants to de-stress by creating experimental drawings inspired by the work of artist Nellie Mae Rowe in the exhibition Really Free: The Radical Art of Nellie Mae Rowe. The session will begin with some gentle seated movement, followed by a short guided meditation. With a cultivated sense of heightened awareness, we will move through several drawing exercises based on the evening’s theme of automatic drawing from dreams.
The resulting drawing will be experimental, fluid, foundational, gestural, and incredibly fun. Here, the emphasis is on mark-making, gesture, and connecting the practice of drawing with the practice of meditation. No prior drawing or meditation experience is required, as the practice is really based on the individual’s response to the experience in the moment.
Open to the public.
Please register in advance to save your space. Registration is limited.
All supplies will be provided and participants will take home their own drawing kit.
Participants will be invited to use yoga mats to sit / lay on the floor throughout the workshop. You might bring your own mat, a pillow or bolster to make yourself more comfortable. This is entirely optional, chairs and some mats will also be provided.

Art in Dialogue: Contemporary Art in Chile
2024-11-20 16:30 - 18:00 | Lehigh University Art Galleries, 420 E Packer Ave, Bethlehem, PA, 18015, United States
Assistant Professor of Art History Florencia San Martín in conversation with Professor of Modern Languages and Literatures and Latin American and Latino Studies Matthew Bush about two recent publications edited by Prof. San Martín about contemporary art in Chile.
The book Dismantling the Nation: Contemporary Art in Chile is the first academic volume to theorize and historicize contemporary artistic practices and culture from Chile in the English language. Critiquing the links between the nation-state of Chile and its colonial, capitalist, heteronormative, and extractivist rule, the book proposes otherwise forms of inhabiting, creating, and relating in more fluid and caring worlds, attending to artistic practices and discourses from Arica and the Atacama Desert to Wallmapu and Tierra del Fuego, and from the Central Valley, the Pacific coast, and the Andes to territories beyond the nation’s modern geographical borders. Analyzing how these practices refer to issues such as the environmental and cultural impact of extractivism, as well as memory, trauma, collectivity, and resistance towards neoliberal totality, this volume furthermore envisions art history and visual culture from a transnational and transdisciplinary perspective. For more information visit: https://www.fulcrum.org/concern/monographs/9k41zh29x
The exhibition catalog Todavía somos el Tiempo: arte y resistencia a 50 años del golpe was published in conjunction with an exhibition of the same name shown from November 2023 through March 2024 at the National Center of Contemporary Art in Chile. Commissioned by the Chilean Ministry of Cultures, Arts, and Heritage to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the U.S.-backed military coup in Chile, the exhibition included more than one hundred works created by artists and collectives from different generations, as well as hundreds of publications and archives from documentation centers in Chile and the United States. Divided into five sections, this exhibition shows the role of imperialism and global capitalism in the events and ideologies that designed the dictatorship and gave the green light to its conceptual continuity in the present, presenting art and time together as community projects of liberation, justice, and reparation. The accompanying exhibition catalog is available on paper and as open access. To access the open-access version visit: https://www.cultura.gob.cl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/tset-catalogo-.pdf

Matthew Bush‘s research and teaching examine contemporary Latin American narrative and culture, focusing primarily on Mexico, Peru, and Argentina. His most recent book Other Americans: The Art of Latin America in the US Imaginary (Pittsburgh 2022) examines the representation of Latin America across a host of mediums including Hollywood films, Netflix series, and contemporary novels, to probe the role of negative affect in hemispheric relations. His current monographic project examines the politics of neo-avant-garde authorship in Latin America.

When asked about the name “Dance Soup“, Weaver explains, “Much like soup is crafted from a variety of ingredients, this concert brings together diverse elements that blend beautifully to create an engaging performance that is sure to warm the audience’s hearts.”
This year’s Dance Soup concert takes place November 22 at 7 PM, November 23 at 2 PM and 7 PM. Tickets are $7-$12 and can be purchased in advance at CharterArts.org.

LUally Film Screening: Day With(out) Art World Aids Day 2024
2024-12-02 11:30 - 13:00 | Lehigh University Art Galleries, 420 E Packer Ave, Bethlehem, PA, 18015, United States
Join the Pride Center and Lehigh University Art Galleries for a LUally Film Screening: Day With(out) Art World Aids Day 2024.
During this session, participants will watch a screening of seven short story videos about the impact of HIV/AIDS globally. Participants will engage in discussion about the impact of the short videos and be equipped with allyship skills on how to best support people diagnosed with HIV/AIDS and how to advocate for better health resources for minoritized communities.
Lunch will be provided. Please register in advance.
Day With(out) Art 2024: Red Reminds Me…
For Day With(out) Art 2024, Visual AIDS announces Red Reminds Me…, a program of seven videos reflecting the emotional spectrum of living with HIV today. Through the red ribbon and other visuals, HIV and AIDS has been long associated with the color red and its connotations—blood, pain, tragedy, and anger. Red Reminds Me… invites viewers to consider a complex range of images and feelings surrounding HIV, from eroticism and intimacy, mothering and kinship, luck and chance, memory and haunting. The commissioned artists deploy parody, melodrama, theater, irony, and horror to build a new vocabulary for representing HIV today.
The title is drawn from the words of Stacy Jennings, an activist, poet, and long-term survivor with HIV, who writes: “Red reminds me, red reminds me, red reminds me…to be free.”* Linking “red” to freedom, Jennings flips the usual connotations of the color and offers a new way of thinking about the complexity of living with HIV. Just as a prism bends and refracts light, Red Reminds Me…, expands the emotional spectrum of living with HIV. It shows us that while grief, tragedy, and anger define parts of the epidemic, the full picture contains deep, nuanced, and sometimes contradictory feelings.
Red Reminds Me… will feature newly commissioned short videos by artists working across the world:

Gian Cruz (Philippines)
Milko Delgado (Panama)
Imani Harrington (USA)
David Oscar Harvey (USA)
Mariana Iacono and Juan De La Mar (Argentina/Colombia)
Nixie (Belgium)
Vasilios Papapitsios (USA)

The artists in this program were selected through an open call process juried by artists/activists aAliy A. Muhammad and Jessica Whitbread, curator Alper Turan, and community organizer Josué Lopez.
The hour-long video program will premiere on December 1, 2024, World AIDS Day/Day With(out) Art. Visual AIDS will partner with museums, galleries, universities, and organizations around the world to present free screenings on/around December 1. Learn more and register as a partner here.
*Jennings recites this poem in the video Here We Are: Voices of Black Women Who Live with HIV, created by Davina “Dee” Conner and Karin Hayes for Day With(out) Art 2022: Being and Belonging.

Windborne – Bringing Old Songs into Present Vocal Harmony, featuring “To Warm The Winter Hearth” Their New Album and Book of Midwinter Celebration
$28.50 ADVANCE | $33.50 DAY OF SHOW
https://godfreydaniels.org/event/windborne-december-5-2024/
Hailed as “the most exciting vocal group in a generation,” Windborne brings a fresh perspective to the rich traditions of vocal harmony. With deep roots in polyphonic music from around the world, their bold and innovative arrangements breathe new life into centuries-old songs, making them resonate in modern times. The ensemble—Lauren Breunig, Jeremy Carter-Gordon, Lynn Rowan, and Will Rowan—seamlessly shifts between musical styles, taking audiences on a journey that spans continents and eras. Known for their captivating harmonies and social consciousness, Windborne’s performances are a masterful blend of technical prowess, passion, and connection. Their viral success on TikTok, and a newly set record with the #1 Album (“To Warm The Winter Hearth”) ever fundraised for on Backerkit, has introduced younger audiences to unlikely genres like Corsican polyphony and early labor anthems, further solidifying their reputation as groundbreaking vocalists who defy expectations.

The Casting of Iron Toys
2024-12-14 13:00 - 14:00 | National Museum of Industrial History, 602 E 2nd Street, Bethlehem, 18015, United States
This presentation by NMIH Historian Mike Piersa will detail the process of casting toys and other products using iron. Created by skilled workers using a foundry method called sand casting, the toys became popular in the latter half of the 19th century as they used materials that were inexpensive at the time, similar to today’s plastic toys. This illustrated lecture will trace the process from furnace to finished product and will feature a small live demonstration, melting tin, to show how the foundry process uses patterns and sand molds to create goods. Included with Museum Admission.

“It is simply impossible to imagine an audience that wouldn’t enjoy what they do,” says The Boston Globe speaking of Cherish the Ladies, the Grammy-nominated, Irish-American super group that formed in New York City in 1985 to celebrate the rise of extraordinary women in what had been a male-dominated Irish music scene. Since their first sold-out concert, they exploded onto the Irish music circuit, performing thousands of concerts around the globe, and are now among the busiest and most admired Irish groups on the planet. Their show is a wonderful blend of the old and the new. Irish songs, lively jigs and reels, and heart-wrenching slow airs transport the listener on an enchanted musical journey.

Charter Arts’ rigorous curriculum fosters both academic and artistic excellence for its students. The school’s impressive Future Ready PA Index ranking, Advanced Placement (AP) exam statistics, Keystone Exam statistics, SAT scores, prestigious artistic accolades, and graduation rate, are testaments to the outstanding education that Charter Arts provides.
Recently, Charter Arts was ranked as #1 Best Charter High School in PA & #1 Best Public High School Teachers in PA on Niche’s 2025 Best Schools in America Rankings.

The Bethlehem Palette Club Visiting Artist Program
2025-01-19 13:30 - 15:30 | PA
Bethlehem Palette Club Visiting Artist Program will be
Sunday, January 19, 1:30 to 4 p.m.

at The Edgeboro Moravian Church, 645 Hamilton Avenue, Bethlehem, PA 18017.
IN CASE OF INCLEMENT WEATHER: Cancellation notices will be on Facebook “The Bethlehem Palette Club”.
Our presenter for this meeting will be artist Jennifer Adams. During her demo, she will begin an oil painting of a landscape using the “prismatic palette” It is simply a string of pigments laid out to correspond with the prism in nature in order to realistically render light and atmosphere.
The goal in Jennifer’s oil paintings is to truthfully capture the splendor of light in a manner that reminds viewers of the beauty of all creation, in all of its manifestations. The approach is based on a careful study of the principles of natural light combined with techniques developed from classical art training. The objective of a landscape painting, for example, is to capture the light at certain moments in the day amidst the current weather condition. See her website at: jenniferadamsfineart.com

THEATRE: "As You Like It" by William Shakespeare
2025-01-24 19:00 - 21:00 | Lehigh Valley Charter High School for the Arts, 321 E 3rd St, Bethlehem, PA, United States
The Lehigh Valley Charter High School for the Arts (Charter Arts) Theatre Department presents: “As You Like It” by William Shakespeare, January 24-26, 2025. The production featured an exceptional cast and is directed by Alumni Artist-in-Residence, Amanda LIssette.
Step into a rugged world where the rolling plains meet the spirit of Shakespeare’s timeless comedy. “As You like It” by William Shakespeare is a story following the themes of love, exile, mistaken identities, and gender roles. This production imagines the Shakespearean comedy if the story was taken to the Wild West. Watch the cast transform As You Like It into a vibrant, colorful Wild West adventure that stays true to the core of Shakespeare’s comedy while exploring new terrain in the realm of cowboy culture.
“As You Like It” is re-imagined as a high-stakes adventure on the frontier, where cowboys and cowgirls swap banter and bravery in a land full of romance, disguise, and self-discovery. Set in an untamed land, this production follows Rosalind, exiled from a corrupt society, as she seeks refuge in the wild, only to discover love and identity in the most unexpected places.
The theme of cowgirls and cowboys provides the perfect backdrop for this story of transformation and freedom. The Forest of Arden represents a new frontier where people reinvent themselves in search of purpose and belonging. With its fierce independence, rugged beauty, and vast open spaces, the West mirrors the play’s themes of freedom, love, and the wild potential of life when boundaries are left behind.
In this version, expect quick-draw duels, lively saloon exchanges, and a fresh take on Shakespeare’s beloved characters—where the law of the land is only as certain as the heart’s desire. Whether in the saddle or around the campfire, this “As You Like It” offers a fresh spin on love and identity set in a time when the frontier itself was full of possibility. Get ready for a rollicking good time with laughs, love, and a little bit of cowboy charm!
TICKETS: Adult $12, Student/Child $7. Evening performances January 24 & 25 at 7 PM. Matinee performance January 26 at 2 PM. Tickets can be purchased in advance at CharterArts.org.
The Charter Arts Theatre Department offers a pre-professional training program for high school-aged performers. The goal is to provide students with the skills they will need to move on to competitive college programs as well as professional theatre experiences.

2025-01-26 11:00 - 12:00 | National Museum of Industrial History, 602 E 2nd Street, Bethlehem, 18015, United States
Anthracite coal mined in Pennsylvania propelled the American Industrial Revolution and pushed our nation into its modern form. Although most of the men and women who made the Mines run are gone and largely forgotten, they left their mark on the world around us. This lecture will help guests understand the mines, miners, their legacy and how anthracite is still prevalent in our daily life whether we know it or not.
The talk will be given by Robert Homyak, an aspiring historian from the anthracite coal region of Pennsylvania and current sophomore at Moravian University majoring in History and Historical Studies. He has lived in the coal region his entire life and has amassed four generations of knowledge of the mines and their inner workings. The presentation will use images and artifacts from his personal and family collection as well as coal region historical societies. “I see the knowledge of the coal region being lost daily and want to preserve it the best I can. ”
On January 26th, the National Museum of Industrial History is offering free admission from 10am-5pm. This program is free to the public.

YAMATO’s Taiko drumming is a unique blend of rhythm, movement, and energy that must be experienced to be fully understood. On stage, they stand with more than 40 Taiko drums, all of which have different characters. For example, their largest drum, Odaiko, was produced from a massive tree over 400 years old. They do not simply make their Taiko drums explode with sound; they produce delicate music that provides the listener with a palette of meticulously crafted sound. YAMATO’s performances are known as physical music — sometimes intense, sad, comforting, yet in the next moment comical. They have performed over 4,000 shows in 54 countries.

Kings Return
2025-02-07 19:30 - 21:00 | Zoellner Arts Center, 420 E Packer Ave, Bethlehem, PA, United States
Kings Return is a vocal band of brothers: Gabe Kunda, Vaughn Faison, J.E. McKissic and Jamall Williams. The Dallas-based a capella group was formed unintentionally in 2016 after first singing together for Gabe’s college graduation recital. Their popularity grew when they began posting videos to social media from the stairwell where they rehearsed. Their sound has earned comparisons to iconic acts like Take 6 and Boyz II Men. They have amassed almost 10 million views across all platforms and have been recognized by artists and brands such as Emily King, Anita Baker, Anthony Anderson, Joyce DiDonato, Apple, NPR, Dallas Morning News and so many more. Avoiding the confines of a single genre, Kings Return’s sound is proudly born out of gospel, jazz, R&B/soul, and classical music. “The name Kings Return is a reflection of ourselves. We are Kings who go forth to conquer but most importantly we return to give back to our community.”

One Vision of Queen feat. Marc Martel
2025-02-08 19:30 - 21:30 | Zoellner Arts Center, 420 E Packer Ave, Bethlehem, PA, United States
We Will Rock You, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, We Are the Champions, and the legendary Bohemian Rhapsody are songs that scratch the surface of rock supergroup Queen’s legacy. There was only one Freddie Mercury. His unique vocals have made it nearly impossible to perform his music as he did. Finally, Marc Martel and One Vision of Queen perform Freddie’s music as it should be. Legendary Queen drummer Roger Taylor remarked to the Daily Record: “That voice. You listen, close your eyes, and you think it’s Freddie. It’s really uncanny.” You may have heard Marc when he last performed at Zoellner to standing ovations or his vocals that were part of Rami Malek’s Academy Award-winning performance in Bohemian Rhapsody, the highly acclaimed Queen biopic.

Brandon Dominguez, born in Mexico, and now an Allentown resident, is a boundary-pushing contemporary artist navigating the realms of abstract and pop art. At the heart of his creative universe are the iconic characters Brian(the Brain) and Moonie(the Moonie), who take center stage in his vivid compositions. Dominguez masterfully employs vibrant colors, crisp lines, and dynamic motion to convey the universal spectrum of human emotions. Influenced by the whimsical charm of rubberhose animation, his work invites viewers on a journey to explore the essence of creativity and the myriad emotions that make us uniquely human. In each piece, Dominguez seeks not only to showcase his artistic prowess but also to unravel the intricacies of what it means to be a creative being. His art spans from painting on canvas to AR and 3D work, art toys, and street art. Dominguez’s work has been exhibited in multiple galleries across the state and is collected worldwide. For more information and to view Brandon’s work, please visit his website.

Connect & Create workshops offer a brief exploration and creative conversation around a work of art from the LUAG collection, followed by a hands-on activity and/or creative response led by a local teaching artist or student educator.

Through March 31st - 15th Annual Hope & Healing Juried Art Show
2025-02-15 08:00 - 2025-03-31 17:00 | Lehigh University Art Galleries, 420 E Packer Ave, Bethlehem, PA, United States
Art is a window of hope when an actual window is not possible
High school and college students are invited to create art that inspires healing and hopefulness and donate it to Healing Through The Arts (HTTA). Following the gallery show located in the lobby area, all art is available free to any hospital, doctors’ office, clinic, or healing facility to inspire patients, families, and staff. After 14 years, HTTA has placed art in more than 40 hospitals and healing facilities.
Students create art to help others, however, the process of creating the art also helps themselves. They have the opportunity to explore their own creativity and share their own journey. This process is essential at a time that mental health issues are growing. Research shows that nature images are calming and healing to most people.
Last year’s 14th annual show featured art from 11 high schools and 6 colleges. Students participated individually or with their class and donated 144 pieces of individual art for the gallery show, including two participants now art educators who submitted pieces with their high school classes. A total of 34 awards were given this year, the most this show has ever had. There are five judges’ awards with cash prizes ranging from $500-$150. Community Awards are selected by anyone who wants to honor the student work that speaks personally to them and fund the prize. Eighteen students won the $100 prize this year. Additionally, The Baum School of Art awarded 10 students with scholarships.
Art shows that life is beautiful and opens the mind to new possibilities by creating optimism. Familiar scenes bring back memories. Unfamiliar ones can create a sense of wonder or desire to see more. As art emotionally draws the viewer into the picture, it can be a welcome distraction from the pain of recovery and boredom for patients and caregivers.
Select artwork from all the Hope & Healing Juried Art Shows are used to create Healing Art Meditations. These single-song mini meditations combine inspiring images and soothing music from Jim Brickman and other acclaimed artists who support the work of HTTA. Meditations can be viewed from HTTA.org on any device, anywhere, anytime.
Healing Through The Arts (HTTA.org) provides instructions and guidance for creating art that is healing. Lehigh University’s College of Health is a leader in improving human health outcomes through interdisciplinary studies and research in population and community health and health innovation and technology. Healing Through The Arts is proud of this partnership.
This exhibition is presented in partnership with the Lehigh University Art Galleries for the planning, installation, and exhibition programming.

The Church is on the corner of Hamilton & Elm St. Parking lot and entrance are on Hamilton, or street parking is available. IN CASE OF INCLEMENT WEATHER: Go to Facebook “The Bethlehem Palette Club”.
Our presenter for this meeting will be Coopersburg artist LINDA ANDERSON. She will demo a landscape painting in watercolor. Linda has a BA from the University of Maryland and a MFA from Maryland Institute of Arts and has studied at the Barnstone Studio and the Baum school. At present she teaches art in Coopersburg. Painting is a way of preserving a moment in time when studying an individual or when looking intently at a scene. Painting outdoors, on location, brings a rush of excitement that comes from working quickly with accuracy. In portraiture, I try to capture on canvas the beauty of the inner soul that I see in an individual.
