SUMMARY:Artist Talk: Cavin Jones
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Saturday\, September 26\, 2026 at 2 PM in the Art Department for a talk by Philadelphia artist Cavin Jones. \nCavin Jones is a painter\, muralist\, and collagist whose figurative work is inspired by American history\, particularly the African American experience.

After the talk in the Art Department\, we’ll visit the Print and Picture Collection to view the original drawings for Cavin’s reimagined Alice in Wonderland. Cavin will have copies of his books available for purchase.

SUMMARY:Amish Country Queer: A Night of Film\, Art & Drag
DESCRIPTION:An award-winning documentary\, a photo exhibition celebrating rural LGBTQ+ life\, and a homegrown drag show converge in one unforgettable night. \nAmish Country Queer is a film about Lancaster’s queer nightlife and drag culture\, and a story about what it means to be visibly\, joyfully\, unapologetically queer in a place the world told you wasn’t built for you. \nTulle Queer is an ongoing portrait series by trans artist Brady Pappas that honors the queer icons of the 717 region. Using tulle as a recurring visual motif\, the project creates a vibrant\, community-rooted celebration of visibility and resilience. \nThe Angel Hour is Lancaster’s second-longest-running drag show\, celebrating five years of glamour and sisterhood\, created by Charlize Angelz. \nThis is a night of celebration. Of queer bodies\, queer lives\, and queer autonomy. Of breaking the binaries and changing the narratives we’ve been handed about where we can live\, whom we can love\, and who we can be. Queerness has never been confined to city limits\, and this night proves it. \nAnd this is where the future gets made. Not at the center\, but at the fringes. \nAmish Country Queer: A Night of Film\, Art & Drag is presented by Little Echo Productions and co-presented by cinéSPEAK.

SUMMARY:Art Under The Stars IV
DESCRIPTION:“Art Under the Stars” Returns for Its Fourth Annual Celebration of Living Artists. In a world where artists are often celebrated only after they’re gone\, Art Under the Stars honors them now. This annual show returns on Saturday\, August 22\, from 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM at the lush Sculpture Courtyard for an evening celebrating living artists\, creativity\, and life together under a glowing night sky. \nFounded by Visual Artist and Event Curator Jona Shreeves-Taylor (@J.Taylor)\, this celebration was created from the belief that “artists deserve to receive their flowers while they’re alive to smell them\,” a sentiment reflected in the abundance of floral arrangements that adorn the space each year. The annual event brings people together to experience art and support artists in an inviting\, open-air setting. \nGuests can explore and collect original artwork and merch by 20+ visual artists\, watch live painting\, thrift shop\, and enjoy sounds curated by Brotha Taaj and DJ YNGFU\, accompanied by a live jazz band throughout the evening. \nThe experience also features soul food from Mr. D’s Homestyle Cooking\, sweet treats from Cloud Cups Gelato\, and a cash bar serving some delicious budget-friendly cocktails and drinks all night. \nMore than an art show\, Art Under the Stars has become an anticipated space to for artists\, art lovers\, and the community to connect\, dance\, and celebrate living artists\, creativity\, and life while we’re here to experience it together.
