- 9:00 AM11hA Colorful DreamExhibition on Display: Jan. 28–March 16, 2025 Tues.–Fri. 9 a.m.–8 p.m.; Sat.–Sun. Noon–6 p.m. Designed to evoke and capture a sense of childhood fantasy, A Colorful Dream tells a simple coming-of-age story in rich symbolic language that takes the viewer on a journey through the entire spectrum of the rainbow. A Colorful Dream is a family-friendly, interactive exhibition by contemporary fine art photographer Adrien Broom. The exhibition features a suite of photographs, some of them large in scale, detailing a young girl's journey as she discovers a series of monochromatic fantasy worlds exploring the rich hues and associations we have with every color in the spectrum. The Huffington Post describes Broom's photography as "deeply rooted in fairy tales and mythology, reinterpreting figures like Aphrodite and stories like Goldilocks and the Three Bears." Over three years in her studio, Broom constructed eight individual sets composed of objects evoking the essence of each respective color. She then photographed a young girl exploring and traveling through each world, passing through small portals that lead her on a journey through a red world, then orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and lastly a rainbow encompassing all the colors. Encountering creatures, characters, and vivid landscapes, Broom's protagonist finds worlds lush, joyful, and even sometimes startling. In looking at the images, it would be easy to mistake the effects as a digital manipulation of the original photograph. In fact, Broom creates each of these worlds by hand, much like a stage production. These images are not put together using photo-editing software, but are the result of hours of crafting tableaux, so what the viewer sees is in fact what was in front of the camera's lens during the shoot.

- 9:00 AM11hBackstage Hollywood: The Photographs of Bob WilloughbyExhibition on Display: Jan. 28–March 16, 2025 Tues.–Fri. 9 a.m.–8 p.m.; Sat.–Sun. Noon–6 p.m. Widely recognized as a pioneer of photography in the 20th century, Willoughby was the first outside photographer invited by studios to take photos on film sets. Willoughby's career took off in 1954 when Warner Brothers asked him to photograph Judy Garland during the filming of A Star is Born. Life magazine published a feature with over a dozen of Willoughby's candid photographs of Garland working on set, and a close-up photograph of her appeared on the cover. Willoughby's career took off, and his photographs became instantly recognizable, featuring naturalistic images of actors and directors in intimate moments of vulnerability. The magazine Popular Photography has called Willoughby "… the man who virtually invented the photojournalistic motion picture still." Responding to the many logistical challenges of working on film sets, he was a technological innovator, creating the silent blimp for 35mm still cameras so that he could photograph silently on set, capturing intimate moments of the stars. The exhibition features photographs from the sets of seventeen iconic Hollywood films, including Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady, Alfred Hitchcock on the set of Marnie, Mia Farrow in Rosemary's Baby, and Marilyn Monroe in Let's Make Love.

- 4:00 PM1hColloquium Series: Jennifer Wells & Amy EarhartPresenters:Jennifer Wells, Ph.D. Candidate | History "Fighting for the Liberty of America': BlackVeteranhoodand the Nebulous State of Race Relations in Postwar Virginia." Amy Earhart, Associate Professor | English "The Millican Massacre: Networked Racial Violence and Archival Restitution"Abstracts:WellsThe same Black Patriots who suffered the pangs of starvation, thrashed in feverish delirium assmallpox ravaged their skin, endured the excruciating pain of seventeen-inch bayonets andfestering bullet wounds, and survived the dread of being held as prisoners of wardemanded recognition for their sacrifices—not as people of color but as citizens of the United States.Their tangible contributions emboldened them to assert the rights and privileges they believed werejustifiably theirs. Using federal and state pension applications, land grants, laws, petitions to theVirginia General Assembly, deeds of manumission, wills, newspapers, and private letters, this paperdemonstrates the diverse experiences Black servicemen encountered during the war and underscores the ambiguities that characterized its aftermath. It argues that citizenship remained contestedfollowing the conflict, with some occupying an ambiguous place within the social hierarchy andlegal landscape.EarhartMy talk will discuss ongoingresearch into the 1868 Millican massacre, the deadliest race violence in reconstruction Texas and, as such, widely reported in the US and abroad.During my Glasscock supported researchatthe American Antiquarian Society Ilocatedover 500 newspaper articles that discuss the events during the July 15-17 massacreincluding evolving eyewitness accounts by Black Millican freedmen.Using methodologies and techniques developed within Black digital humanitiesI will discuss my plans to map newspaper transmission on contemporary information technology systems, such as the railroad and telegraph, which I believe will give us a better understanding of howthe massacre shaped political responses to Texas, the South, and concepts of race. Chair: Elizabeth Carlino | Geography Please note that this is not a lecture, and thus, is not suited for class attendance. The Colloquium Series is intended to provide the presenter with a forum to discuss their research and receive feedback from colleagues and peers.
