In 2017, Kristen T. Woodward was able to witness a total solar eclipse in Knoxville, Tennessee, and was moved by the dramatic planetary display. She is looking forward to viewing another eclipse in her hometown of Webster, New York in April, as we will be in that exquisite path of totality. Woodward marvels at how science has allowed us to countdown the minutes while other events in our lives appear random and chaotic. The experience leaves one to ponder what is pre-ordained. By including images inspired by solar eclipse, her encaustic paintings intend to capture this conflict and visual tension between chaos and natural order.Woodward received her BFA in Printmaking from Syracuse University, and her MFA in Studio Art from Clemson University. Her zoomorphic paintings combine encaustic and print processes, and often utilize found collage materials. Woodward is a professor in the department of art and art history at Albright College, teaching drawing, painting, printmaking, and gender and the visual arts. Currently, she is collaborating with an environmental biologist to explore tropical ecosystems in Costa Rica. Woodward serves as is Resident Curator for the online site Artists2Artists. - All dayEclipse ArtCampus Life | Ho Science Center

This exhibition, co-curated by Longyear Curatorial Assistant Summer Frazier and Curatorial Intern Raquel Marquez-Guerrero ‘24, explores the different ways that art leverages the creative process to metabolize conflict or aggression. This healing manifests in various forms, ranging from redefining narratives to empathizing with personal or communal losses. These artists, working in media from 2D to 3D to street and graffiti art, intentionally confront discontent, fostering creative growth and finding solutions. In this context, their art becomes a means to process pain and to construct bridges amidst conflict. In addition to art, this exhibition also explores various ways that plants can be used in healing processes. - 9:30 AM7hCreative Resolve: Poisons and Passions at Longyear Museum of AnthropologyCampus Life | Alumni Hall, 2nd Floor

The Collections: What is the role of an art museum on a liberal arts college campus? Since 2013, the collections at Picker Art Gallery have been shifting. Moving away from traditional models of collecting, the museum today holds a larger proportion of artworks by women, BIPOC, LGBTQ+ artists and others whose creativity and stories have historically been left out of museum collections.The Core: The revision of Colgate’s Core Curriculum represents the essence of the university’s liberal arts commitments to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Introduced in 2022, the revised Core curriculum has a stronger focus on exposing students to diverse forms of knowledge. Most notably, a new course called Core Conversations was created. Based on five globally significant “texts,” it lays out the common ground for intellectual discussions within the Colgate community. Core Conversations focus on productive discourse and communal learning among students, encouraging them to engage in perspectives and dialogues beyond the limits of personal experience.Core Collections: This is not a typical museum experience. The gallery has been transformed into a space for open-ended dialogue. Visitors will not find a lot of text interpreting the artworks; rather, we pose a series of questions, designed to elicit individual reflection and initiate discussions across communities, identities, and materials.. The exhibition is organized into four broad areas of inquiry: Appearances, Epistemologies, Urbanism and Labor, and People and Land. We encourage you to engage with the questions provided while viewing the works, and to contribute your insights or your own questions to our interactive space.What will you add to the conversation?Core/Collections is curated by Emma Barrison ’24, Cindy Chen ’24, and Wendy Wu ’25 - 10:00 AM7hExhibition: Core/Collections: Let's Talk About ItToday's Events | Dana Arts Center, Second Floor

2023/2024 Christian A. Johnson Endeavor Foundation Artist-in-Residence jackie sumell and Studio CAJAIR present “The Locker Room.”Artist jackie sumell works at the intersection of social sculpture, abolition and healing. With the principle of abolition always in mind, sumell inhabits the physical materials and architectures of oppression and transforms these physical structures into lived spaces of radical hope.For The Locker Room, a work created especially for Colgate University, sumell worked with a team of students who go by Studio CAJAIR (an anagrammatic nod to the Christian A. Johnson Endeavor Foundation Artist-In-Residence program, which underwrites this work). Together, sumell and Studio CAJAIR spent the academic year considering the relationship between athletics and activism, ultimately recreating the architecture of a locker room to envisage how sports and locker rooms can be horizons of liberation. They ask, “What happens if the locker room becomes public, seeded with the best of its potential? Can we make the lockers themselves altars to the future[s] we wish to see?”sumell and Studio CAJAIR, along with students they invited from Art & Activism (ARTS 132A), transformed 12 lockers into altars to future worlds. They imagine everything from ecological justice, racial equity, and classless societies to happiness after retirement, as wins.The Locker Room is presented by the Art Department and the Christian A. Johnson Foundation. The Christian A. Johnson Endeavor Foundation Artist-in-Residence was established in 1986 as a challenge grant in support of the arts at Colgate. The residency program permits one or more artists to become part of the Colgate community every academic year.Opening reception and gallery talk with jackie sumell and Studio CAJAIR will take place at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, March 27.Please note that weekend gallery hours are dependent on the availability of student monitors. If driving a distance, please contact the department at 315-228-7633 during regular working hours to ensure the gallery will be open.Learn more at https://www.cliffordgallery.org/ - 10:30 AM6hThe Locker RoomCampus Life | Clifford Gallery, Clifford Gallery (101 Little Hall)

Faculty and staff are invited to this workshop presented by Dr. Gary Beckman, founding director of NC State University’s Entrepreneurial Studies in the Arts program and author of The New Arts Entrepreneur, the first uniquely designed pedagogy for arts entrepreneurship educators and students.While many disciplines (quite rightly) pursue reasons, rationales or solutions, some engage in pursuits less qualitative. Between these two seemingly disparate ends of a continuum is a transitional space of sorts where the desire for certainty and acceptance of uncertainty, transition. Founding director of NC State University’s Entrepreneurial Studies in the Arts program, Dr. Gary Beckman will articulate a transitional space between art and entrepreneurship. Further, using Bourdieu’s conception of the habitus to embrace these spaces, Dr. Beckman argues that small changes to many pedagogies can better prepare students for an increasingly entrepreneurial world.Lunch will be served. Attendees will receive a copy of The New Arts Entrepreneur. Advance RSVP requested; walk-ins welcome. This workshop is presented by the Office of Entrepreneurship and Innovation and co-sponsored by the Division of Arts and Humanities.----------------------------------------------------The New Arts EntrepreneurMelding an arts-first approach with understandable entrepreneurial concepts and newly formulated tools, the text helps arts students to envision themselves as an entrepreneurial CEO, not simply another random entrepreneur flailing through a maze of well-worn entrepreneurial suggestions that don't fit.At the core of the text are the entrepreneurial ecologies of the arts. The ecologies provide a framework to envision an entrepreneurial horizon for almost any arts-based business, included those ventures seeking to impact the production of art. In addition to this revolutionary framework, the text also introduces tools designed to compliment the ecologies.Designed with arts students in mind, it accomplishes two critical tasks not found in other textbooks: venture sustainability and decision-making. This newly developed approach focuses on the decision-making required to sustain new arts ventures and will be of interest to arts students from all disciplines. - 12:00 PM1h 15mThe Realization of a Semi-Uncertainty: Art, Entrepreneurship, and BourdieuToday's Events | Little Hall, 201

In this session, you will learn that the arts, a life in the arts and the decision to “entrepreneur” require a continuous negotiation of a risk beyond the artistic or financial—choice.Dr. Gary Beckman is founding director of NC State University’s Entrepreneurial Studies in the Arts program and author of The New Arts Entrepreneur, the first uniquely designed pedagogy for arts entrepreneurship educators and students.Advance RSVP requested; walk-ins welcome. This workshop is presented by the Office of Entrepreneurship and Innovation and co-sponsored by the Division of Arts and Humanities. - 2:00 PM1h 30mColgate-Hamilton Economics Seminar Series-Ginger JinAcademics | Persson Hall, 209

Faculty and staff will present interactive workshops that provide participants a hands-on introduction to their discipline and pedagogy. Workshops are open to all campus guests. Details available upon registration. - 3:30 PM1hNASC Colloquium - "New Chemical Tools for Neuroscience and Medicine"Academics | Ho Science Center, 101
"New Chemical Tools for Neuroscience and Medicine", presented by Jacob Goldberg, assistant professor of chemistry.This colloquium will discuss the development of new chemical tools to interrogate biological systems. Of particular interest are novel probes to study neurotransmission modulated by mobile zinc(II) ions at synapses strongly engaged with learning, memory, and sensory perception. Attention will be given to both synthetic considerations and novel zinc biology. Separately, recent work concerning new methods for rapid and ultra-rapid cysteine arylation will also be presented. Such chemistry allows for stoichiometric protein labeling at dilute concentrations in less than a minute with high specificity. These reactions are desirable for the construction of antibody-drug conjugates, among many other applications in medicine and biology. - 3:30 PM1hNASC Colloquium - "New Chemical Tools for Neuroscience and Medicine"Today's Events | Ho Science Center, 101
