SUMMARY:Forum Marquee Event: Constitution Day Celebration: “Who Controls Foreign Policy in the United States?”
DESCRIPTION:On September 17\, 1787\, the Constitution of the United States was signed in the Assembly Room of the Pennsylvania state legislature—the same site that witnessed the signing of the American Declaration of Independence. This year is the 238th anniversary of that historic occasion. \nRockford University will celebrate Constitution Day with a shared classroom visit from Marquette University Law School Professor Ryan Scoville who will be meeting electronically with Dr. Ron Lee’s Current Issues in American Foreign Policy class (POLS 387). Please sit in with us to listen to an informative aspect of the US Constitution that is often less-explored\, but increasingly critical in the 21st century. \nMost Americans are aware of the central role that the president and the executive branch play in foreign policymaking.  But has this always been the case? Find out what the Constitution tell us about the distribution of foreign policy powers and the foreign policy responsibilities of the other branches\, especially Congress. Explore how we get to the point where presidents and the executive branch seem to have almost exclusive authority over foreign policy. Learn the part the courts can and should play in interpreting the law and resolving disputes as they relate to foreign policy. Understand how the fact that the US. has a federal system of government that divides power between the national government and state governments effects American foreign policy. With respect to current foreign policy matters\, know the constitutional debates surrounding the Trump administration’s immigration and international trade policies and its use of military force. Come and learn more about our most basic governing document while celebrating its creation.

SUMMARY:Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat
DESCRIPTION:Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is the colorful and comical re-telling of the Old Testament’s Joseph and his eleven jealous brothers who sell him into slavery.

It’s a story of hope\, resilience\, and forgiveness told entirely through song: a toe-tapping array of 70s rock\, country-western\, French ballad\, Calypso and more. This family-friendly musical will have you on your feet dancing along with the cast by the show’s mega-mix ending!

SUMMARY:Forum Marquee Event: Phi Beta Kappa Visiting Scholar: “Democracy and the Arts”
DESCRIPTION:What is the role of the arts in activating and sustaining democratic life? How have artists sustained the rights of free expression? Why are some forms of artistic expression censored? How have the arts contributed to social movements? Should the arts have a politically useful role? Or stay strategically “un-useful”? In different eras and regions of the world\, artists have responded to these questions quite differently. This lecture explores a range of socially engaged art practices\, considering how some seek to make community\, how some seek to expose inequity\, and how some open new ideas of what democracy might mean. \nShannon Jackson is the Cyrus and Michelle Hadidi Professor of the Arts & Humanities at UC Berkeley and the Chair of the History of Art department. Her research\, teaching\, and convening focus on the role of visual\, literary\, performance\, and media art forms in social movements and in public life\, with a recent focus on ecological aesthetics. For more information use this link to the PBK website; https://www.pbk.org/visitingscholars/2025-2026/shannon-jackson \n

SUMMARY:Fotos y Recuerdos
DESCRIPTION:Salvador Dominguez\nOn Display: September 2nd – October 17th\nReception: Friday\, October 10th\, 6:00-8:00PM\nArtist Talk: Friday\, October 10th\, 7:00PM \nSalvador Dominguez was born in 1985 in Zacatecas\, Mexico\, and grew up in Pomona\, California. He now lives and works in Chicago\, Illinois\, where he studied at the Art Institute of Chicago. Like many first-generation immigrants\, language is an important part of Dominguez’s narrative. Not just in terms of communication but also in its relevance within a broader contemporary American culture. Employing pattern\, vibrant shifting colors and abstracted pictographic imagery\, Dominguez’s works occupy a unique space between painting\, textile-making and functional design. \nDominguez’s 2024 solo presentation with De Boer Gallery at the New Art Dealers Association\n(NADA) Contemporary Art Fair in Miami was recognized by ARTnews in their top 6 selections\nfrom the fair\, writing “In his works that take on art history from the Renaissance to Pop art\,\nDominguez imbues his own sense of cultural history to provide a sharp commentary on growing\nup in the United States as the child of immigrants.” \nRecent solo and group exhibitions include De Boer Gallery (Los Angeles\, CA)\, Andrew Rafacz (Chicago\, IL)\, Western Exhibitions (Chicago\, IL)\, DePaul Art Museum (Chicago\, IL)\, Lubeznik Center for the Arts (Michigan City\, IN)\, Ralph Arnold Gallery at Loyola University (Chicago\, IL)\, Walker Art Gallery (Garnett\, KS)\, National Museum of Mexican Art (Chicago\, IL)\, Carroll University (Waukesha\, WI)\, One After 909 (Chicago\, IL)\, Thomas Masters Gallery (Chicago\, IL)\, and the Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art (Chicago\, IL).
