SUMMARY:Uncertainty Is Not Chaos
DESCRIPTION:The School of Art and Design’s Sabbatical Exhibition series presents Uncertainty Is Not Chaos\,featuring recent work by Daniel Atyim\, Associate Professor in the department of Visual and Performing Arts. On view at the Furlong Gallery from March 13 to April 19\, 2025\, the exhibition opens with a reception on March 13 from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. The Furlong Gallery will also host a Meet the Artist event with Atyim on April 11 at 3 p.m. \nAtyim’s paintings\, drawings\, and sculptures balance precision with playfulness\, embracing unpredictability. His compositions\, marked by striking color relationships\, layered surfaces\, and an acute sense of rhythm\, reflect an intuitive process where impulse and structure converge. \nAtyim’s approach to painting revels in the act of making—an embrace of the present moment that is rooted in repetition. His works carry a distinct cadence\, at times sharp-witted\, at times disarmingly sincere\, often walking a fine line between the obscure and the familiar.  Uncertainty Is Not Chaos invites viewers to step into this space of tension and possibility\, where vibrant hues\, shifting structures\, and bold gestures create a visual dialogue that resists easy categorization.

SUMMARY:Black Violin
DESCRIPTION:Black Violin is composed of classically trained violist and violinist Wil Baptiste and Kev Marcus who combine their classical training and and hip-hop influences to create a distinctive multi-genre sound that is often described as “classical boom”. The band released their major label debut Stereotypes (featuring Black Thought of The Roots and MC Pharoahe Monch) on Universal Music which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Classical Crossover Chart and #4 on the Billboard R&B Chart. NPR took note and declared “their music will keep classical music alive for the next generation”. The band is currently touring the US and will release their new album Take The Stairs in November. Wil and Kev place heavy emphasis on educational outreach\, and have perform for more than 100\,000 students each year. Recently\, they were announced as Turnaround Artists for Mary B. Bethune Elementary School in their hometown of Broward County\, FL. Turnaround Arts\, a national education program of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts\, infuses arts into struggling schools to support overall reform efforts. Through their student engagement and public performances\, Black Violin challenge the stereotypes and preconceived notion of what a “classical musician” looks and sounds like. “The stereotypes are always there\, embedded so deep in our culture\,” says Wil. “Just by nature of our existence we challenge those ideas. It’s a unique thing that brings people together who aren’t usually in the same room\, and in the current climate\, it’s good to bring people together.” The band is endorsed by Yamaha Music and Bose and has partnered with the National Association for Music Manufacturers (NAMM) to continue their advocacy for accessible music education.

SUMMARY:Writing Genealogy Series: From Binghamton to the Battlefield
DESCRIPTION:Amy Truesdell continues the genealogy series. She’ll talk about how she researched and wrote about her great-great-grandfather Rollin who was a Union soldier during the Civil War. \nThe Book: \nFrom Binghamton to the Battlefield draws the reader alongside Rollin B. Truesdell\, a prolific letter-writer and an early enlistee in the 27th NY Volunteers\, a regiment that was in the thick of some of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War. Rollin wrote with clarity and wit of what he saw and felt as a Union soldier on the battlefield\, and in the army camps where soldiers were tormented by disease as well as the slow passage of time. Rollin mustered into service as an eager recruit and returned home a war-weary\, battle-tested veteran disillusioned by the unseemly political machinations of war\, yet steadfast in his commitment to victory for the North. With the 100+ letters the Truesdell family preserved as the backbone for the book\, Rollin’s great-great-granddaughter wove supporting political and military context around the letters to tell Rollin’s story. \nIn person or via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Writing Genealogy Series: From Binghamton to the Battlefield
DESCRIPTION:Amy Truesdell continues the genealogy series. She’ll talk about how she researched and wrote about her great-great-grandfather Rollin who was a Union soldier during the Civil War. \nThe Book: \nFrom Binghamton to the Battlefield draws the reader alongside Rollin B. Truesdell\, a prolific letter-writer and an early enlistee in the 27th NY Volunteers\, a regiment that was in the thick of some of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War. Rollin wrote with clarity and wit of what he saw and felt as a Union soldier on the battlefield\, and in the army camps where soldiers were tormented by disease as well as the slow passage of time. Rollin mustered into service as an eager recruit and returned home a war-weary\, battle-tested veteran disillusioned by the unseemly political machinations of war\, yet steadfast in his commitment to victory for the North. With the 100+ letters the Truesdell family preserved as the backbone for the book\, Rollin’s great-great-granddaughter wove supporting political and military context around the letters to tell Rollin’s story. \nIn person or via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Uncertainty Is Not Chaos
DESCRIPTION:The School of Art and Design’s Sabbatical Exhibition series presents Uncertainty Is Not Chaos\,featuring recent work by Daniel Atyim\, Associate Professor in the department of Visual and Performing Arts. On view at the Furlong Gallery from March 13 to April 19\, 2025\, the exhibition opens with a reception on March 13 from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. The Furlong Gallery will also host a Meet the Artist event with Atyim on April 11 at 3 p.m. \nAtyim’s paintings\, drawings\, and sculptures balance precision with playfulness\, embracing unpredictability. His compositions\, marked by striking color relationships\, layered surfaces\, and an acute sense of rhythm\, reflect an intuitive process where impulse and structure converge. \nAtyim’s approach to painting revels in the act of making—an embrace of the present moment that is rooted in repetition. His works carry a distinct cadence\, at times sharp-witted\, at times disarmingly sincere\, often walking a fine line between the obscure and the familiar.  Uncertainty Is Not Chaos invites viewers to step into this space of tension and possibility\, where vibrant hues\, shifting structures\, and bold gestures create a visual dialogue that resists easy categorization.

SUMMARY:Meet the Author: Meagan Frank
DESCRIPTION:Meet author Meagan Frank; she’ll have books for sale and signing. \nThe Book: \nFor the Team: How to Improve the Youth Sports Experience for Everyone \nA unique exploration of the emotionally charged adult youth sports experience. \n\n\n\nFewer than 2% of athletes ever play Division I sports\, and for those who do\, it’s not always a positive experience. The pressures begin in youth sports and rarely let up. “Team Adult”—the parents\, coaches\, and administrators facilitating youth\, high school\, and college sports—need to turn inward and explore their own motivations and intentions in order to effect real change for the benefit of young athletes everywhere. \nIn For the Team: How to Improve the Youth Sports Experience for Everyone\, sports mom\, former Division I athlete\, and coach Meagan Frank provides an invaluable guide for the adults in the youth sports landscape. She urges them to take personal responsibility in creating an emotionally healthy place for kids to learn\, play\, and grow\, no matter the level of competition and no matter the stakes. Frank takes a deep-dive into highly-charged topics surrounding youth sports and shares key strategies “Team Adult” can adopt\, including actively listening to the young athletes\, respecting their choices\, encouraging sports activities outside of the competitive environment\, and carving out time for the family and other interests. \nFull of personal insights\, interviews with experts\, discussions with coaches\, and surveys from hundreds of parents and children\, For the Team features emotional discoveries and practical advice that will improve family and team dynamics and bring youth sports back to where it should be—as one small yet important part of a child’s development into a healthy\, confident\, and happy individual. \nAbout the Author: \nMeagan Frank has been a part of nearly 200 sports communities since her time as an athlete at Colorado College where she played NCAA Division-I soccer and Division-III basketball. She has coached boys’ and girls’ teams at the college\, high school\, and youth levels\, parented three active athletes\, and has held board member positions for four separate sports associations. Meagan regularly gives presentations across the country on the subjects of sports parents and women in sports.
