SUMMARY:Townsend Symposia on Music\, Philosophy and the Arts: Michelle Cann "Women of Chicago's Black Renaissance"
DESCRIPTION:In the words of Michelle Cann: “As a pianist\, I am deeply inspired by the incredible contributions of Black female composers who shaped the cultural landscape of Chicago’s Black Renaissance. This program\, “The Women of Chicago’s Black Renaissance\,” celebrates the voices of pioneering composers who created powerful and evocative music. From Nora Holt’s Negro Dance to Florence Price’s Fantasie Nègre and Margaret Bonds’ Spiritual Suite\, each piece is a testament to the resilience and creativity of these women. By sharing their works and talking about their lives\, I hope to illuminate their legacy and bring attention to their invaluable contributions to classical music. As an artist\, I am committed to preserving and elevating these voices\, ensuring that their stories and music continue to resonate for generations to come. This program reflects not only the richness of our culture but also the profound impact of these women on the history of classical music.” Free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Guilty Pleasures by Brittany Coburn
DESCRIPTION:The MAC presents Guilty Pleasures by Brittany Coburn\, an exhibition that explores the vices\, comforts\, and coping mechanisms we carry with us as we navigate the complexities of living in the world we love. Functioning both as a new body of work and a retrospective of Coburn’s ongoing research into mental health\, Guilty Pleasures examines how seemingly indulgent habits—often dismissed as weaknesses—can instead serve as tools for survival\, self-soothing\, and resilience. Content Advisory: This exhibition includes mature imagery involving tobacco\, drugs\, medicine\, and related themes. Viewer discretion advised.
