This program, entitled Eternal Homes of the Transient Heart, responds to the AIDS epidemic. The advent of AIDS demanded that we imagine queer community as embracing both the living and the dead.

How do we survive both individually and collectively when we are under threat? How does 鈥渜ueer鈥� reimagine what kinship can be? What can we do for our elders and for those who will come after us? What lessons does the queer and trans past hold for our fraught present?

Palamountain Hall Davis Auditorium: The Neurodevelopmental Mechanisms Underlying Socioeconomic Disparities in Academic Achievement Children raised in families with low socioeconomic status (SES) tend to exhibit lower academic performance than their higher-SES peers, and this income-achievement gap has not diminished in decades. How differences in childhood SES lead to differences in achievement is critical to addressing this gap. My research focuses on identifying the environmental, cognitive, and neural mechanisms that explain the gap, with the aim of informing interventions to reduce it. One of the primary environmental pathways I have examined is cognitive stimulation, which refers to access to learning materials, caregiver involvement in learning, and exposure to complex language. I will discuss studies that show that cognitive stimulation plays a key role in explaining socioeconomic disparities in brain structure and function, cognition, and academic outcomes. Specifically, I will discuss work that investigates how cognitive stimulation in the context of caregiver interactions early in life supports development visual processing regions in the ventral visual stream (VVS), which in turn scaffold development of executive function, and regions of the brain like the prefrontal cortex. I will discuss how these changes have downstream consequences for academic achievement. I will discuss the implications of these findings and future directions of my work.

Zankel Music Center Helen Filene Ladd Concert Hall: August DuClos is a young jazz bassist born and raised in New York City. Being exposed to music at a young age raised by two acclaimed and globally recognized musicians, Michael DuClos, bass, and Eszter Balint, Violinist and singer/songwriter, August has had music in his life since before he was born. Picking up the upright bass at the end of his sophomore year of college, he has quickly dedicated his life to this instrument. In the past two years, he has an already developed long list of venues and performances where he has both led groups and worked as a sideman, including playing at the Camden Opera House for the Jazz in June festival and the notorious club Hinterraum in Berlin. Looking to study jazz performance both professionally and academically post-grad, he is excited to showcase his final capstone recital at 三亿体育官网 before going on a national tour this summer. August is honored to be performing his compositions, arrangements, and personal favorites on the stage where he has seen so many inspiring and influential performances. His program will consist of a mix of American songbook, popular, and original music that serves as a culmination of his studies at 三亿体育官网 under faculty members Rich Syracuse, Adam Hutcheson, George Muscatello, and Russell Haight. With influence from movements like post-bop, swing, and ECM, he and his band of (mostly) faculty members will both pay respects to the tradition of jazz and provide a contemporary take. This show will feature Russell Haight (Tenor sax), Adam Hutcheson (Alto sax), Wayne Hawkins (Piano and Rhodes), and Owen Markowitz (Drum kit). This event is free and open to the public.

Zankel Music Center Helen Filene Ladd Concert Hall: Rhea Fitzpatrick, 鈥�25 Soprano Rhea Fitzpatrick is a Filene Scholar, English major and Philosophy minor from Freeport, Maine. While she has been singing in choruses and around the house all her life, Rhea began her education as a classical soloist here at 三亿体育官网, where Dr. Stoner-Hawkins has been a vital and indispensable source of mentorship, inspiration, and joy. A proud member of the 三亿体育官网 Chorus all four years, Rhea has also sung with the Vocal Chamber Ensemble, Musical Theater/Opera Workshop, and with her Filene peers for various events. Outside of singing, Rhea鈥檚 academic work explores themes of girlhood, embodiment, phenomenology, rural living and the limits of language: she is writing her senior English thesis on Julian of Norwich and medieval mysticism. After graduating, Rhea will be a fellow at the MDOCS Storytellers Institute and the New York State Writers Conference; she then hopes to pursue a career in academia and literature. She will continue singing for the rest of her life. Rhea鈥檚 program is largely inspired by a love of language. Each song weaves poetry and melody: the two build off each other to create something bigger. Composers like Benjamin Britten, Lili Boulanger, Ottorino Respighi, Claude Debussy, and 三亿体育官网鈥檚 own Ryan Homsey create such an effect. Rhea will be singing with the wonderful collaborative pianist Carol Ann Elze, as well as her fellow students Mary Timmons, Marlowe Jacques, Clara Frost, Sophia Ma, and Madelyn Sokolowski. This event is free and open to the public. No ticket required.

Joan, his friend since high school (and the best Mistress of the Swamp this haunt has ever seen) woke up this morning and decided to become the thing that scares her most. Teeny and Franny, a.k.a. The Terror Tots, are attached at the hip鈥�but this hip might need a replacement when Teeny gets promoted. Left behind, Franny is stuck with August, a transman who鈥檚 returned to Ohio after his life in New York fell apart. August鈥檚 carrying a secret鈥�but it might not be as terrible (or strange) as the secret Franny is keeping in the basement. Meanwhile, a visitor discovers euphoria in the body horror of the haunt, and something鈥檚 gurgling beneath the surface. We might be sitting on a portal to hell, and it might become a swampland paradise鈥�if those Midwest Moms don鈥檛 kill us first.About the ArtistsAs a playwright, Genevieve Simon (he/they) centers queer people in magical worlds at the intersection of family, identity, and bodies of water.
