An Intimate View of the War in Syria at Haverford’s Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery peaceful uprising against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad during the 2011 Arab Spring has, over the last seven years, exploded into a full-scale civil war that has killed more than 500,000 and driven 12 million from their homes, according to human rights advocacy group the Syria Campaign. The war has devastated cities and decimated civilians, creating a power vacuum that has allowed ISIS to thrive and ballooning into one of the biggest humanitarian crises of this century.

For Syrian journalist Marwan Hisham that has meant the death of close friends, the radicalization and polarization of his fellow citizens, and witnessing the violence of the state and other international actors. Once exiled from his wartorn country, Hisham became an outspoken voice on social media, rendering war into expressive language. He collaborated with writer, visual artist, and activist Molly Crabapple on the book “Brothers of the Gun: A Memoir of the Syrian War,” which used delicate ink drawings alongside his personal stories to give readers a view into the world of a young Syrian coming of age during the turbulent last decade. Last year, the duo presented drawings and passages from the book together in an exhibition at the Brooklyn Public Library, and now that show, “Molly Crabapple & Marwan Hisham: Syria in Ink,” comes to Haverford College’s Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery for a one-month engagement.

“Syria is perhaps the most widely documented war in history,” says Crabapple, whose work was inspired by Goya’s The Disasters of War. “But oppressors, whether they are governments or not, seldom allow cameras into the spaces where they inflict their oppression. The lived experience of those under them disappears into the memory hole. Thankfully,

A

art is a slippery thing. It can evade censorship, make history visible, invest the hideous with beauty and the prosaic with force. It can reveal that which power would otherwise be able to hide. I seek to accomplish with my art what photos cannot.”

The exhibit includes over 50 original drawings by Crabapple interspersed with text in the voice of Hisham. With pen and brush, together they capture Syria from before its precipitous fall to its current state of crisis and mass displacement.

“Molly Crabapple & Marwan Hisham: Syria in Ink” will be on view March 22 through April 26 at Haverford College’s Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery. Join for an artist talk and opening reception on March 22, from 4:30 - 7 p.m. For further details: exhibits.haverford.edu/syriainink.

“Molly Crabapple & Marwan Hisham: Syria in Ink” is curated

by Cora Fisher and organized by the arts and culture division of the Brooklyn Public Library, BPL Presents. Support for its presentation at Haverford is provided by the John B. Hurford ’60 Center for the Arts and Humanities.

Overseen by the John B. Hurford ’60 Center for the Arts and Humanities and located in Whitehead Campus Center, the Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery is open Monday through Friday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturdays and Sundays 12 p.m. to 5 p.m., and Wednesdays until 8 p.m. For information, contact Matthew Seamus Callinan, associate director of the Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery, VCAM, and campus exhibitions, at 610896-1287 or mcallina@haverford.edu, or visit the exhibitions program website: www.haverford.edu/exhibits.

Haverford College is located at 370 Lancaster Avenue, Haverford, PA 19041.

cess Diana, Oprah Winfrey’s Legends Ball, and President Clinton’s second inauguration. Lisa was also the popular host of many Philadelphia Thanksgiving Day Parades and presented the important news to us on TV every single day.

Once, Lisa Thomas-Laury was on top of the world. She had a successful career as a Philadelphia TV 6 Action News anchor and a husband and two sons whom she adored. She had received three honorary doctorate degrees and numerous other awards including an Emmy Award, Broadcast Pioneers Hall of Fame, and the very prestigious Liberty Bell Award.

Lisa Thomas-Laury has been a part of our lives for many years and countless events. But while Lisa was busy being the elegant anchor woman who was narrating the highlights of our lives she was quietly and courageously fighting the battle of her life.

In 2001, Lisa began facing her own significant life challenge. She was struck with a rare nerve disorder that remained misdiagnosed for nearly two years. Finally, Lisa was treated at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota and had gotten a correct diagnosis of POEMS Syndrome.

Now two bone marrow transplants later, Thomas-Laury is doing much better, but during the course of her treatment, she also had a struggle with opioid addiction after a doctor prescribed her OxyContin to treat her pain and she became dependent on it.

She did not originally plan to talk about her addiction and recovery in her recently published memoir, On Camera and Off, but after the third friend of one of her sons succumbed to an overdose, she decided to include that experience as well. She felt that if she really wanted to help people, she would have to bare her soul.

Lisa has chosen the Mayo Clinic as the beneficiary of her Tasty Talk, with proceeds going towards POEMS research. The Mayo Clinic specializes in treating POEMS, a rare and debilitating protein disorder which can be difficult to diagnose.

Tasty Talks host Michelle Leonard explained that Lisa is a very special person who has been very modest about sharing her life’s difficulties. But Lisa has opened up in order to share with others the challenges that those affected with POEMS go through every day, and besides raising awareness she wants to help raise funds to find a cure.

Michael Wei, Yangming owner, added that, “Most people felt that she just quietly retired until her wonderful but deeply affecting book came out. Now they realize that there was so much more to the story and that Lisa is a wonderfully gifted and sensitive writer who brings the readers along for every step of her debilitating disease. Today she is on the mend and back with the energy, enthusiasm and intelligence that brought us into her cheering section from the first time we saw her and felt her magnetic personality.”

The luncheon will begin with hors d’oeuvres at 12:30, followed by Lisa’s Tasty Talk, then there’s an open Q&A, and a wonderful lunch served family-style. Just $25 ($30 at the door, if seats are available) covers lunch, dessert, tax, charitable contribution, and tip.

Please note that walk-ins will be charged $30 and the prix fixe price does not include the available alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.

Yangming is located at Conestoga and County Line Roads in Bryn Mawr. Call 610-527-3200 or visit www.YangmingRestaurant.com to register for this Tasty Talks event or for any additional information.

say, ‘It’s about people who get up, have coffee, and break each others’ hearts.’ This season, we are trying to tell stories that engage audiences and elicit empathy, and to share many different kinds of American experiences on the stage. This play balances hope and heartbreak, laughter and loss.”

From the acclaimed Kilroy’s List, “How to Catch Creation” follows four artists and intellectuals in San Francisco who are struggling to nurture creative impulses and establish a legacy in both their professional and personal lives. When one discovers the works of a black queer feminist writer from a bygone era, their lives begin to intersect in unexpected ways. In this bold, imaginative play, Anderson, “a gifted playwright you want to pay attention to” (Variety), dissects the universal act of creation – creation of life, of family, of art – to inspire the dreamers and idealists in everyone.

“I saw a reading of the play in the Goodman Theatre’s Next Stages Festival – a new play festival. They had commissioned it and it struck me as such a rich story. So many layers and kinds of relationships are examined – love, friendship, mentorship, authority. The power center shifts multiple times for each character,” said Price.

With “How To Catch Creation,” PTC begins a commitment to produce one play from The Kilroys list each year. For the past five years The Kilroys, an LA-based collective of playwrights/producers, continuing the fight to achieve gender balance in the American theater, have been advocating for equal representation on our American stages, and have released an annual list of under-produced plays by women writers. In 2019, The Kilroys announced new leadership, with the original leaders serving as an advisory board. On the new board is playwright Emma Goidel, a member of Orbiter 3, whose work has been produced on several local stages.

“It came to me that so many industry leaders were putting plays forward to be on the list, but that to actually commit to producing them would be an important and impactful leap.

In considering what PTC would put forward, we knew we wanted to feature women and stories by writers that might need more visibility—that need a break, frankly. I would love PTC to be a place that gives creative people the chance they need to break through,” added Price.

The cast for this exciting new work, playing three generations of characters, is a mix of local, regional, theatre and film talent. Former University of the Arts student Tiffani Barbour plays GK Marche. Barbour was on the national tour of “Mamma Mia!” and has appeared on television in “The Leftovers” and “Law & Order.” The character of Stokes is played by Jonathan Bangs, a recent graduate of California Institute of the Arts and has appeared at the Kennedy Center and A.C.T. Shauna Miles plays Natalie. Miles appeared on “The Good Wife,” “Law & Order SVU,” and “Luke Cage.” She has performed on stages across the country, including the “Radio City Christmas Spectacular.” Shayna Small plays Riley. Small is a classically trained actor, singer and educator based in Brooklyn. She was part of the tour of “Parable of the Sower” written by Toshi and Dr. Bernice Reagon. Wilma Theater Hothouse member Lindsay Smiling plays Griffin. Smiling last appeared at PTC in “Hillary and Clinton,” and he recently played Friar Lawrence in the Wilma’s “Romeo and Juliet.” Stephanie Weeks plays Tami. She has several Regional and Off-Broadway theatre credits and is set to appear in the Netflix show “Tales of the City” with Laura Linney.

“The characters are deep. A man who was wrongly incarcerated for 25 years is unable to go to his mother’s funeral and now has trouble adapting. He is forced to engage with the same system that put him in prison when he tries to get approved to adopt a child. Another character is ambivalent about her relationship, even while subsuming her own needs to try and make it work...another is in a relationship with a writer, and we see what happens when that person feels she takes second place to her partner’s work. I absolutely love how the lives of three seemingly unconnected people intertwine in a magically theatrical way,” said Price.

Single tickets for “How To Catch Creation” are on sale now for $10-$69 with discounts available for groups, seniors, students, industry, and the military. For additional information, tickets or subscriptions, visit www.philatheatreco.org or call 215-985-0420.

Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church Presents Thomas Lloyd’s Bonhoeffer ryn Mawr Presbyterian Church presents Thomas Lloyd’s Bonhoeffer on Sunday, March 17 at 4 p.m. in the Sanctuary. The oratorio, one of the most groundbreaking choral works composed in recent years, will feature the men of the Bryn Mawr Chamber Singers and soloists Elizabeth Weigle, Corinn Altomare and Misoon Ghim.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer was one of the most influential Christian theologians of the 20th century. A Nazi resister, he was involved in an unsuccessful plot to assassinate Hitler. Bonhoeffer suffered imprisonment and was hanged at Flossenbürg Concentration Camp a few weeks before Germany’s surrender on May 7, 1945.

The movements in the oratorio alternate between eight reflective meditations, several of which are based on Bonhoeffer’s poetry, and seven dramatic scenes highlighting emblematic incidents in the theologian’s life. Bonhoeffer himself is not represented by a particular singer, but by various combinations of solos, duets, trios, or the whole men’s contingent. They also represent Bonhoeffer’s community of underground seminarians.

In contrast to the male-dominated culture in which Bonhoeffer primarily lived and struggled, three female soloists represent the centrality of several important women in the development of his spiritual life. They sing primarily the words of his fiancé Maria, but they also represent the probable feminine influence on his spiritual life by Bonhoeffer’s mother (his only connection to Christian tradition as a child), his twin sister Sabine (who married a Jewish lawyer), his grandmother Julie (who proudly defied the Nazi boycott of Jewish businesses), and his fiancé’s mother Ruth-Alice von Bismark (an important supporter of the Finkenwalde seminary).

Tickets are available online: http://bit.ly/BonhoefferOratorio and at the door: $20 for adults; $5 for students with ID. Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church is located at 625 Montgomery Avenue in Bryn Mawr.

32nd Annual “Touch the Future” Juried Art Show

Learn About Alzheimer’s Disease from “A to Z”

Featuring Work of Public High School Students from Bucks & Montgomery Counties

Alzheimer’s Foundation of America Presents Free Educational Program April 3 he Alzheimer’s Foundation of America (AFA) is holding a free educational program designed to teach Philadelphia metro area residents about Alzheimer’s disease from “A to Z.” The event, part of AFA’s Lecture Series, will take place on Wednesday, April 3, at Independence Live (1919 Market Street-Second Floor, Philadelphia). Registration will begin at 1:30 p.m., with the program running from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.

“As Alzheimer’s affects more and more people, it’s important for individuals to know about the warning signs and what to do if Alzheimer’s becomes a part of their life,” said Charles J. Fuschillo, Jr., AFA’s president and CEO. “This program is designed to raise Alzheimer’s awareness, educate individuals about the disease, and teach them practical steps that can help them plan for care as they age. We invite everyone to attend.”

Participants will learn about topics such as: • Signs and symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia-related illnesses.

• How to communicate concerns about memory.

• Planning and preparing a road map for care as you age.

Free, confidential memory screenings will also be offered.

Licensed social workers who attend the program are eligible to receive two continuing education contact hours free of charge.

Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States, and the only one in the top 10 without a cure or disease modifying treatment. More than 5 million Americans are currently living with Alzheimer’s disease, including more than 280,000 in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The number of Americans with Alzheimer’s is expected to as much as triple by 2060, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

“Health and wellness are important to all of us,” said Molly Fogel, LCSW, AFA’s director of education and social services, “which is why we’re helping people be proactive and get information that can help them, regardless if they’re currently affected by Alzheimer’s disease.

After all, knowledge is power.”

Individuals can register for the April 3 program by calling AFA at 866-232-8484 or visiting AFA’s website at www.alzfdn.org and clicking on the “events calendar” tab at the top of the page. Registration is free and open to all.

Those who can’t attend the program or have an immediate question about Alzheimer’s disease can contact AFA’s National Toll-Free Helpline at 866-232-8484 and speak with a licensed social worker. The Helpline is open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. (ET) on weekdays and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. (ET) on weekends.

Waldron Mercy Academy students act out characters for author Mo O’Hara.

“I love hearing the kids’ ideas. It cracks me up because they are the most creative and they don’t have censor buttons,” O’Hara said.

The students laughed as O’Hara acted out events from her childhood that inspired her book series My Big Fat Zombie Goldfish. O’Hara gave the students a few lessons about acting and had them dress up as characters from her most recent book, My Fangtastically Evil Vampire Pet. O’Hara was born in Pennsylvania, but currently lives in London. She visited Waldron Mercy Academy as part of her U.S. book tour.

These purveyors of Americana infused Gypsy Jazz just celebrated their 30th Anniversary and are continuing to take their listeners on a ride ranging from the music of the Hot Club sounds of Paris to the deepest blues of the Memphis Delta to the folk scenes across “every town” America into their 4th decade of existence. The Wail are sublime entertainers, great educators and they’ve mastered the art of lifting spirits.

Harmonious Wail is Sims Delaney-Potthoff, a mandolin virtuoso, bandleader, vocalist and master of all things behind the curtain, Maggie Delaney-Potthoff, vocalist extraordinaire whose percussive instrument of choice is a cardboard box, but who also has a knack for exploring the musicality of almost any household object, and Jeff Weiss, master bassist who dazzles and mesmerizes on both upright and electric bass. Every performance is played from the heart and infused with the perfect balance of ingredients that firmly proves that music truly does make the world a better place. Harmonious Wail endeavors with each and every show, performance and workshop to not only showcase their talent, but to also touch each audience member’s or participant’s heart and soul and have them walk away feeling lighter in spirit.

Other upcoming concerts this season include James Gordon on April 25, Spook Handy Remembering Pete Seeger on May 9 and Gathering Sparks on June 6.

Founded in 1993, the Lansdowne Folk Club is a 501(c) (3) all volunteer non-profit corporation dedicated to presenting folk, acoustic and blues music.

I MMACULATA U NIVERSITY O FFERS P RESENTATION ON C YBERSECURITY AND A RTIFICIAL I NTELLIGENCE mmaculata University welcomes Keith Rayle on Thursday, March 28, at 6:30 p.m. in Loyola Hall room 127 to present “AI and Cybersecurity: The History, Workings, Ups, Downs, and Future.” Rayle serves as the security strategist for the cybersecurity firm Fortinet and is a certified chief information security officer.

“Like most technology, artificial intelligence can either add value to our lives or create more challenges. From a cybersecurity perspective, AI will be used to both help protect and threaten our systems,” states George Schwartz ’18, Ed.D., director of Immaculata’s Emergency Planning and Management program. “We are fortunate that there are not many experts more qualified than Keith Rayle to help us understand this important topic.”

With AI being in its infancy stage and readily adopted to provide simpler solutions, Rayle will discuss how AI is being used today and what the future of this technical advancement is. The session will also explore converging technologies and what the future of AI means for cybersecurity.

Rayle has provided security services globally for a variety of industries including retail, aerospace, banking, healthcare, and manufacturing. During his career, he has led large multifunctional teams and provided oversight of multiple simultaneous and complex implementations of technical security projects. As a 21-year military veteran, he has served as a nuclear weapons technician, helicopter pilot, and operations officer.

In response to innovative and growing technologies such as AI, the field of cybersecurity is constantly adapting, and new cybersecurity degree programs, including Immaculata’s Bachelor of Science degree in Cybersecurity, are being offered to meet the demand for cybersecurity professionals. This presentation is part of Immaculata University’s College of Adult Professional Studies “Preparedness & Resilience Speaker Series.” The event is free and open to the public.
