Zimmerli Celebrates Innovative Printmaking Studio This Fall: 30 Years of Brodsky Center
(NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ) — In the early 1980s, visionary artist and Rutgers University Distinguished Professor Emerita Judith K. Brodsky set out to rectify the gender and racial inequities in the art world by establishing a print- and papermaking studio that provided visiting artists residencies primarily for women artists and artists of color. Pioneers like Brodsky laid the groundwork for the diversity that exists today. This fall, the Zimmerli Art Museum presents the first museum survey of work created by artists such as Faith Ringgold, Melvin Edwards, and Jaune Quick-To-See Smith at this highly influential atelier—now known as the Brodsky Center—founded in 1986 and remaining active on campus for 30 years.

Dewey Frye is dead, leaving the rest of his family to pick up the pieces — if they don’t kill each other first — in “Southern Fried Funeral” by Little Rock native J. Dietz Osborne and Nate Eppler. It’s onstage at Murry’s Dinner Playhouse, 6323 Colonel Glenn Road, Little Rock.
