CNY Artist Initiative: Catherine Spencer
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

Catherine Spencer creates sculptures and alternative environments inspired by her childhood surroundings, exploring the interplay of human experience and nature. Using found objects and human-made materials, her work bridges emotional and physical landscapes. Spencer earned her BFA from Alfred University and her MFA from Syracuse University. Her work has been shown in venues like the Muskegon Museum, Axis Gallery, and Governors Island, and she has participated in residencies such as the Cleveland West Art League, Turner Residency, and Chautauqua School of Art.

   

Off the Rack
Everson Museum of Art

Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St., Syracuse

"Off the Rack" is the happy by-product of a major renovation of the Everson's on-site art storage.

As hundreds of paintings and framed works are displaced from their racks while renovations take place, the public has an unprecedented opportunity to view objects that have been in deep storage for years, never-before-seen recent acquisitions, and some perennial favorites — all hung together salon-style in our exhibition galleries.

This smorgasbord of paintings and works on paper showcases the breadth and depth of the Museum's collections and provides a glimpse into the world of collections management and care.

Life/Afterlife ... Do You Have a Plan?: Work by Vykky Ebner and Pam McLaughlin
ArtRage Gallery

Price: Free
ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave., Syracuse

"Life/Afterlife ... Do you have a plan?" delves into the profound psychological toll religious dogma can have on mental health and spotlights two women who bravely navigated a journey through religious indoctrination, survived its challenges, and now speak up about the damages they endured, ultimately thriving despite the adversity.

Through evocative artwork and stirring narratives, "Life/Afterlife" confronts the toxicity of religious orthodoxy and sheds light on the struggles of breaking free from rigid belief systems. Viewers will be inspired to reflect on their own beliefs and challenge societal norms as they experience the transformative power of rebellion and resilience.

   

Preview: The National Pastime
Syracuse Stage
Johanna McKeon, director

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

Cuba, 2016. A mysterious illness rips through the American embassy in Havana. America, 2017. The Houston Astros are stealing signs, on their way to a World Series win. With tensions heightened from the lead-up and aftermath of an election year, the two nations play a dangerous game in the shadows, with their shared national pastimes – baseball and espionage – as their weapons of choice.
