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.

   

A Long Look: Documentary Photography, 1888-2016

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.

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.

Redhouse
Temar Underwood, director

Redhouse at City Center

Mary Jane Healy is a high-achieving homemaker who will do anything for her family, including their adopted African American daughter Frankie, who is struggling to find her place in their lily-white community. But when the Healys' lives begin to unravel, Mary Jane's drive to keep her family together threatens to break them apart.

Lyrics by Alanis Morissette; music by Alanis Morissette and Glen Ballary, book by Diablo Cody.

Steel Hearts: The John Henry Musical
The Oncenter
Sing America

Carrier Theater, Mulroy Civic Center
411 Montgomery St., Syracuse

A story of love, hope, chains, and freedom.

This electrifying production follows a free Black man in the 19th-century South as he dares to dream bigger than the chains that tried to hold him, and stronger than the machine that tried to replace him. As John lays down rail, finds love, and leads a crew toward their promised land, his story becomes the story of a people and of a nation. A love letter to the American Dream proving the power of a heart of steel against any foe, Steel Hearts is the story we need now, more than ever.

With an original Indie-Gospel score that swings like steel on rail, Steel Hearts turns the epic of John Henry into a living myth, echoing the dream of every person who has stood against the storm.

Steel Hearts is a foot-stomping, heart-pounding race for the soul, a thunderous new American musical that will have you on your feet, clapping in rhythm, and telling the tale of the American legend and American Hero, John Henry.

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.
