CNY Artist Initiative: Maria Park
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Maria Park examines how technology shapes our perception and participation in the world. Her work spans serial paintings, site-specific installations, and public projects, often focusing on the relationship between human presence and media reliance. Her recent work explores the ritual and legibility of diagrammatic language. Born in Munich, Germany, Park grew up in the Bay Area and holds an MFA in Painting from the San Francisco Art Institute. She is an associate professor in the Department of Art at Cornell University and has lived in Ithaca since 2006.

   

Nancy Friedemann-Sánchez: Dream Map and Cornucopia
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Nancy Friedemann-Sánchez is a Colombian American artist who explores her heritage through works that combine Colombia's material culture, history, and natural world. For the works featured in "Dream Map and Cornucopia," Friedemann-Sánchez begins with an image of a ceramic vessel that speaks to the complex history of Latin America and its diaspora. She then transforms these vessels into bountiful cornucopia, bursting with flora and fauna that evoke Colombia's rich ecosystems. Together with the Everson's Paul Phillips and Sharon Sullivan Curator of Ceramics, Garth Johnson, Friedemann-Sánchez has also selected an array of ceramic works from the Museum's permanent collection that reflect her interest in Latin America's tapestry of Indigenous and colonial cultures.

   

Najee Dorsey: Poor People’s Campaign
ArtRage Gallery

Price: Free
ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave., Syracuse

Set in the layered world of Najee Dorsey's Poor People's Campaign, this powerful Afrofuturist vision grounded in the environmental struggles of today's impoverished communities. Blending Southern nostalgia with digitally-collaged speculative futures, Dorsey's work unveils a future shaped by environmental racism, industrial pollution, and the resilience of those who endure these atrocities. This exhibition challenges viewers to confront what's hidden in plain sight — smokestacks on the horizon, decaying landscapes, and children at play in dystopian backdrops, unaware, just going about their lives.

Each candid portrayal of a child, each scar of environmental injustice plaguing the earth, is a symbol of ongoing corporate greed, and a masterful fusion of futures transforming the landscape into an intimate battleground. Through these works Dorsey challenges us to consider the true cost of progress and unchecked power.

Preview: The Hello Girls
Syracuse Stage
Cara Reichel, director

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

A heroic new musical about connection in a time of conflict.

1918. As the world plunges further into unprecedented catastrophe, Grace Banker works as a telephone operator in New York City, proving herself more than capable in a male-dominated industry. But when the U.S. Army recruits her to lead a group of women directing communications on the frontlines in France, she and her fellow "Hello Girls" will have to prove themselves again and again if they are to convince the top brass — and the countr — that they belong in the fight. This new American musical reminds us that in the battle against hopelessness and hate, no weapon can match the power of the human spirit.

Najee Dorsey: Poor People’s Campaign
ArtRage Gallery

Price: Free
ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave., Syracuse

Set in the layered world of Najee Dorsey's Poor People's Campaign, this powerful Afrofuturist vision grounded in the environmental struggles of today's impoverished communities. Blending Southern nostalgia with digitally-collaged speculative futures, Dorsey's work unveils a future shaped by environmental racism, industrial pollution, and the resilience of those who endure these atrocities. This exhibition challenges viewers to confront what's hidden in plain sight — smokestacks on the horizon, decaying landscapes, and children at play in dystopian backdrops, unaware, just going about their lives.

Each candid portrayal of a child, each scar of environmental injustice plaguing the earth, is a symbol of ongoing corporate greed, and a masterful fusion of futures transforming the landscape into an intimate battleground. Through these works Dorsey challenges us to consider the true cost of progress and unchecked power.
