EVEN MORE EVENTS Suicide Prevention Month Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death for Pennsylvania youth ages 10 - 24. In fact, in Pennsylvania, the average of losing a young person to suicide in this age group is every 1.36 days. In a 2017 survey, 7.4% of Pennsylvania high school students reported that they have attempted suicide one or more times in the last twelve months. This equates to more than 40,000 students within the state each year. The good news is that suicide is preventable. September is National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. National Suicide Prevention Week is September 8 - 14, with World Suicide Prevention Day on September 10. During this day, week, and month, organizations and individuals across the state will be conducting activities to draw attention to the terrible tragedy of youth suicide. The Jason Foundation has compiled an Informational Packet for Suicide Prevention. The Packet will provide additional information on the tragedy of youth suicide and offer suggestions on how individuals can become involved in prevention efforts. The Jason Foundation is a nationally recognized leader in suicide awareness and prevention. They provide all of their programs, services, and materials to the public at no cost.

The exhibition runs September 8 - September 29, with a public opening reception on September 8, from 12 p.m. - 3 p.m. DVAA is located at 704 Catharine Street, Philadelphia, PA 19147. Dissonance is the absence of harmony, the experience of clashing disorder. It pervades our politics, our social interactions, and our culture. We live in a world of constantly accelerating change brought on by the rise of digital technology, globalized economies, and climate change. In this new work, Bill Brookover explores visual metaphors for dissonance and harmony; it is his response to the, in the artist’s words, “unsettling times we live in.” Bill Brookover is a printmaker whose work is based in his design training, and the art of architecture. Born in West Texas, he studied Architecture and Fine Arts at Rice University, Historic Preservation at Columbia University, and Printmaking at Fleisher Art Memorial. His prints explore design, color, texture, and geometric structure. Brookover is a teaching artist at Fleisher Art Memorial, a community-based art school in South Philadelphia, where he has taught printmaking since 2010. In 2014 he began leading tours of Hidden Print Collections for Fleisher printmaking students. He serves on the Board of Directors at Fleisher Art Memorial where he chairs the Sanctuary Taskforce. He is a member of Second State Press, The Print Center in Philadelphia, the American Color Print Society, InLiquid, The Main Line Art Center, Philadelphia Center for the Book, and DaVinci Art Alliance.
Laurel Hill Cemetery Announces the Expansion of Its Friends Group to include West Laurel Hill Cemetery resident and CEO of Laurel Hill Cemetery and West Laurel Hill Cemetery & Funeral Home, Nancy A. Goldenberg, announced the expansion of its longstanding Friends group at its annual Donor and Member Appreciation Reception on Sunday, August 18. In front of a group of nearly 100 supporters, Ms. Goldenberg revealed that the 41-year old Friends of Laurel Hill Cemetery is now the Friends of Laurel Hill & West Laurel Hill Cemeteries. The expansion had been nearly a year in the making and was approved by the Board of the Friends in September of 2018. Ms. Goldenberg announced that the newly expanded Friends will continue its full support Laurel Hill as it reaches across the Schuylkill River to include its sibling cemetery, West Laurel Hill, in Bala Cynwyd. The Friends intend to begin offering regular history tours, movies, and other programs at West Laurel Hill starting later this year. According to Goldenberg, “United under a single membership organization, two of America’s finest historic cemeteries will now leverage their collective strength and together advance a mission of preserving, protecting and promoting these remarkable cemeteries through innovative programming, education and donor support.” The expansion of the Friends provides an opportunity to increase the visibility of both cemeteries and attract new mem-

bers and audiences to programs and events at both sites. It also provides an opportunity to increase financial support from more members, increased donations and grants. “One membership organization for two great historic cemeteries will inevitably expand partnerships, collaboration and creative thinking,” said Goldenberg, adding, “This is a new, exciting chapter of growth for our valued Friends organization.” The Friends of Laurel Hill & West Laurel Hill Cemeteries was founded in 1978 in order to save what was then a desperate and dilapidated Laurel Hill Cemetery. Over the years, the Friends grew from a small volunteer-led organization to a thriving non-profit staffed by five full time employees. The success of the Friends has resulted in the restoration of thousands of monuments at Laurel Hill as well as popular programming and recreational activities such as plays concerts, walking tours, bird watching and yoga. The Friends’ annual Gravediggers’ Ball is now a mainstay of the Philadelphia Halloween season. For information about the Friends of Laurel Hill & West Laurel Hill Cemeteries, contact Executive Director of the Friends, Nick McAllister at 215-228-8200 ext. 100 or nm@thelaurelhillcemetery.org.

Imagining a Radically Different Future at Haverford’s Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery
an art be an agent for change? Can it help us predict what is to come? Or help avert an apocalyptic future? In our current moment – fraught as it is with economic, political, and social turbulence – people are hungry for new possibilities and potential paths towards a better tomorrow. “A Time for Farewells,” a new exhibit that launches the 2019/20 season at Haverford College’s Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery, gathers the work of 10 contemporary artists across media to collectively lay the foundations for a new art and a new art world that could foresee and actualize a vision for that brighter future. Curator Premjish has assembled sculptures, drawings, videos, and photographic works by Markus Baenziger, Atul Bhalla, Julia Christensen, Tushar Joag, Michal Martychowiec, Sumedh Rajendran, Gigi Scaria, Zoya Siddiqui, Vivan Sundaram, and Omer Wasim to collectively imagine a future radically different from the present in the hopes that the very act of imagining can be an impetus for change. Baenziger’s “Then Again” installation, for example, juxtaposes terracotta pots, made in the traditional process, with similarly sized pots casts from colorful, recycled plastic. It is at once a nod to the perseverance of the past and a solution for a sustainable future. Julia Christensen’s “Upgrade The Baltimore Avenue Dollar Stroll to Proxima B” is marriage of science and art, a speculative The Baltimore Avenue Dollar Stroll, presented in association with the Baltiongoing experiment with scientists at NASA’s Jet Propulsion more Avenue Business Association (BABA), will return on September Lab to develop an artwork for an interstellar spacecraft that 12 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. During this unique event, University City’s could travel to a planet in the Alpha Centauri system—a Baltimore Avenue between 43rd and 52nd Streets showcases its charm journey that would take 40 years to complete.

teeth – but they thrum with an undercurrent of concern about the ravages of global capitalism, exploitation of human labor, and modern urban life. In order to build something new, these artists are saying we need to say goodbye to old rigidities, to limitations of imaginations, to constraints of institutions and structures. “A Time for Farewells” is now. “A Time for Farewells” will be on view September 6 through October 11 at Haverford College’s Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery. Attend a curator talk and opening reception on September 6, from 4:30 - 7 p.m. and an artist talk with Atul Bhalla and Gigi Scaria on Tuesday, September 10 at 4:30 p.m. in the VCAM Screening Room.

The Philly Pops Heads Over the Rainbow for Seventh Annual POPS Ball
ith many regular donors delaying giving to take final summer vacations and prepare for school to start, the American Red Cross has an emergency need for blood and platelet donations to help end a summer blood shortage. While thousands of donors have rolled up a sleeve this summer, blood and platelet donations aren’t keeping pace with patient needs. More donations are urgently needed to replenish the blood supply and be prepared for patient emergencies. Make an appointment to donate blood now by downloading the free Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting www.RedCrossBlood.org, calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or enabling the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device. Those who donated blood earlier this summer may be eligible to give again. Blood can be safely given every 56 days, and Power Red donations can be given every 112 days. With the help of a generous $1 million donation from Amazon, the Red Cross is thanking those who help overcome the shortage by coming to give July 29 through August 29 with a $5 Amazon.com Gift Card via email. (Restrictions apply; see www.amazon.com/gc-legal. More information and details are available at www.RedCrossBlood.org/Together.)

he Philly POPS will hold its Seventh Annual POPS Ball gala on September 12 at The Bellevue Hotel. This year’s POPS Ball, titled “Over the Rainbow,” will celebrate the TOPS of the POPS 41st Anniversary season with Wizard-of-Oz-themed emerald flair. The Seventh Annual POPS Ball is the major fundraiser of the 2019-20 POPS season. POPS supporters will enjoy a night of dinner and dancing to the 65-piece Philly POPS orchestra, led by new Music Director Todd Ellison. Ellison has created a glowing night of Broadway and swing favorites from his legendary “Great White Way” playbook for this, his first POPS Ball. The night will also feature POPS fan-favorite vocalist, Mandy Gonzalez. Currently starring in the mega-hit Hamilton as Angelica Schuyler, Mandy originated the role of Nina Rosario in the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical, In The Heights. Mandy is the featured guest artist in this year’s A Philly POPS Christmas and A Philly POPS Uptown Christmas. Previously, Mandy performed in 2017’s POPS On the Parkway and 2018’s A Philly POPS Christmas. To add some extra sparkle to this TOPS of the POPS celebration, the 2019 POPS Ball will honor Robert “Bob” Green, Chairman of Greenwood Racing, Inc., as the Seventh Annual POPS Ball Honoree. Since 2013, PARX has been the valued presenting sponsor of the POPS Subscription Series at the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts. The POPS has experienced particularly noteworthy success and exponential growth during these past years. Mandy Gonzalez will sing Kermit the Frog’s “It’s Not Easy Bein’ Green” in Mr. Green’s honor.

highly selective program has offered teenagers their first taste of hands-on, collaborative experimental research. Years and even decades later, alumni describe it as “the educational experience of a lifetime.” Most go on to earn advanced degrees and leadership roles in their chosen careers. Lee and her colleagues worked closely with university professors, met prominent guest speakers, and took behind-thescenes tours of local scientific and cultural sites. SSP is operated by an independent non-profit, in cooperation with host campuses New Mexico Tech, University of Colorado Boulder, Purdue University, and University of California San Diego, and affiliates Caltech, MIT, and Harvey Mudd College.

new center marrying function and form will open its doors to upcoming generations of would-be artists and designers – the Harcum College Art & Design Center – in time for the new school year. Edith Harcum, a concert pianist, founded Harcum College in 1915, as a finishing school infused with a fine arts curriculum. Harcum College’s fine arts legacy continued through the 1970s and 80s, largely because of renowned Philadelphia artist Martin Zipin. For nearly four decades, he presided as Harcum’s art department chair, served as a faculty member, and inspired generations of artists as an artist-in-residence until his death in 1991. This new center will allow Harcum to capitalize on its historic strengths in art and design instruction by consolidating all the existing art and design-related degree programs in one larger, aesthetic and inspiring space while accommodating for the growth of new and recently adopted degree programs in the arts and design arena.

In the graduation address, graduation speaker Maria Martino inspired her classmates: “Let us not go through life afraid of the what ifs. Instead, let us grab the what ifs and fly as high as we possibly can. Be ambitious, have seemingly unthinkable aspirations, reach goals you once thought were unattainable, fly. We have been dreaming our whole lives, it is time to make those dreams our realities.”

Harcum College is opening a new Art & Design Center in Bryn Mawr for the start of the new academic year. The building at 270 S. Bryn Mawr Avenue, was recently vacated by The American College. “This is a programmatic initiative, not merely one allowing us to expand our physical plant,” said President Jon Jay DeTemple. “The Art & Design Center is a strategic path to academic and curricular growth.” Harcum has offered selected majors in the design fields such as Fashion and Interior Design for years. However, with the acquisition of two signature programs from the Antonelli Institute in Photography and Graphic Design in 2018, Harcum has brought to fruition a strategic goal: to incorporate the fine arts into all academic program, growing the offerings in the art and design fields and finding space for them. “The Art & Design Center offers the ideal learning environment for the Antonelli programs now at Harcum,” said John Hayden, Vice President of Institutional Advancement at Harcum and former president of the Antonelli Institute. “Both institutions have common roots in the arts, Antonelli famously as well, dating back to its founding in 1938 by Severo Antonelli. Now, we have a space where these new programs can take root and flourish.” The space inspiring Harcum’s artistic renaissance is the award-winning former American College building at 270 S. Bryn Mawr Avenue. Harcum College took occupancy in July 2019. The facility was created with perspective and purpose in 1972 by an internationally known architectural firm Mitchell Giurgola. With its floor to ceiling windows, garden level, atrium, skylights, life drawing studio space, and park-like setting, its new purpose as a learning center for Harcum art and design students is perfectly realized.

The Philadelphia Youth Orchestra’s Bravo Brass ensemble will take to the stage for their 16th Annual Festival Concert on Saturday, June 8 at 7:30 p.m. The performance will take place in the beautiful St. Mark’s Church, 1625 Locust Street in Philadelphia, PA. Entitled “Brand New Brass,” the program will feature music composed or arranged over the last 20 years including works commissioned by the ensemble in the past. The concert will also include the world premiere of “Bravos,” a new composition by Patrick Hoffman as well as Bravo Brass faculty member Barry McCommon joining the group as soloist in “A Very Barry Fantasy” by Jamie Wehr. Bravo Brass is an all brass ensemble for promising middle and high-school instrumentalists directed and conducted by Paul Bryan, who is the Dean at Curtis Institute of Music. The Bravo Brass musicians have spent a great amount of time preparing for this performance. Bryan is proud of the students’ commitment to the music and said, “This talented group of young musicians has been working tirelessly in anticipation of this upcoming performance. I look forward to this opportunity for us to showcase their talent.” General admission for this event is $15. Students under 18 are free. For more information, call 215-545-0502.

Supported by the Pew Center for Arts & Heritage, The School University of the Arts School of Dance presents “The School for Temporary Liveness brings togethfor Temporary Liveness,” from September 25 - October 2, er an international roster of artists and scholars working in dance, 2019.

It explores the sonic ideologies of punk, pop speak, practice and reflect and Congolese rumba, through the iconic artists Patti with Jarrett Earnest. Smith, Grace Jones and Rit Nzele, respectively. Each part is embedded with a lecture or history lesson that explores how knowledge can be shared through live performance.

Watch, listen, speak, practice and reflect with Rizvana Bradley, Jarrett Earnest, Brooke Holmes, Tiona Nekkia McClodden, Colin Self, Ulises, Jackie Wang, Simone White and others. In addition to these programs, Study Hall will remain open throughout the week as a space for knowledge-exchange where anyone can sign up to be a teacher, student or witness. The School for Temporary Liveness allows for participants to create class schedules for themselves and compile a series of performances and events they attend throughout the week. The School for Temporary Liveness re-positions spectatorship as an active learning (or un-learning) process and performance as a site for the production and exchange of alternative knowledges. Anyone can be a student. The School for Temporary Liveness is presented by University of the Arts School of Dance. This project has been supported by the Pew Center for Arts & Heritage.

TO
RESTORE HISTORIC HOME

RESIDENCE HALL
Continued from front page
teria for residents of the home have not yet been determined. The presence of another structure on the property, however, will allow four students to be pioneers, calling the Convent Road site their home within the next few months. According to William Leonard, Neumann’s director of facilities and manager of the project, a one-story cinder block structure across the driveway from the main house will be converted into a four-person apartment during the 2019 fall semester. This small building, formerly used as a rental space, has been gutted down to the frame in preparation for a makeover. The new apartment will contain two bedrooms, a living room, bathroom, and kitchen. Leonard explains that it will be outfitted with brand new flooring, drywall, paint, air conditioning, and appliances as well as a new roof. Access to and egress from the new university property will be from Aston Mills Road. The driveway to Concord Road will be closed to traffic. Leonard admits that parking on site will be limited. “I anticipate having about 14 parking spots on the property,” he explained. Other residents will park in the lot next to the Mirenda Center, the campus athletic facility. “We’re looking forward to expanding our residential capacity by 20-24 students,” said Dr. Chris Domes, university president, “and offering students a new type of residential environment in this beautiful home. The ability to live in university housing and get the full college experience is a very attractive feature for Neumann students and their families. We’re eager to provide this unique option in 2020.” History of the Rhodes Mansion John MacFarland, a retired high school science teacher and member of the Aston Township Historical Society, has done extensive research on the history of Aston. According to his investigation, John B. Rhodes purchased a large tract of land (including today’s sites of 601A, 601, and 603 Convent Road, and the truck garage and repair shop behind 601A) in 1885 and built the “Rhodes Mansion” in 1892. The Rhodes brothers (John and Samuel) had been business
Neumann University has purchased a spacious 1892 Victorian home at 601A Convent Road (Fisher’s Corner in Aston). Plans are to convert it to a residence for 18 students by the fall of 2020. owners in the area since 1864 when they acquired a gristmill on the west branch of Chester Creek and converted it into a cotton and woolen factory. “With additions in 1868, 1872 and 1879, the mill grew in size to be three hundred and fiftyfive feet in length and three stories in height,” MacFarland writes. To house their growing workforce close to the mill, the Rhodes brothers built what MacFarland describes as 118 “tenement houses” on the hillsides on both sides of the creek, an area that today is known as Aston Mills. The Rhodes fam-
ily ran the mill until they sold it in 1903. It was destroyed by fire in 1932. John Rhodes sold the mansion and property in 1907, and there were two other owners until the tract and home were claimed by Chester-Cambridge Bank and Trust in 1935 during the Great Depression. Six years later, two families related through marriage (Fred and Edith Schad, and Russell and Dorothy Smitham) purchased the property. They operated the Schad Milk Company from the large garage behind the home. R. Lee (Morte) Smitham, a community banking officer for Iron Workers Bank, was born in 1944 and spent the first eight years of his life in the Victorian mansion. He recalls that seven people lived in the house. “We didn’t know back then that it was a mansion,” he jokes. “We just called it home.” To this day, Smitham lives at 601 Convent Road, right next door to his former home. After the Schad-Smitham families, the property was sold to the Piersons in 1952 and finally to James and Caroline Elser, who owned the home from 1962 to 2019, longer than anyone else. According to James Elser, Jr., the mansion became a bed and breakfast in 1992 and an apartment house at some time between 2002 and 2005. According to Elser, Jr., “My mother ran the bed and breakfast more like a family inn than a traditional business. One gentleman named Joe, who worked at the Scott Paper plant in Chester, lived in the house for three years. He became part of our Thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations.” A 1982 graduate of Neumann, Elser also remembers how his carpenter father gathered the material he needed to build the ranch unit across the driveway from the main house. “Every day, he brought two or three discarded cinder blocks home from a job site” until he had enough to construct what will now be an apartment for four students. After 127 years and more than 10 owners, the Rhodes mansion is now poised to begin its new role in history as a Neumann University residence hall.

Photo/Jim McGann tribute iteration with guest bassist Vince Giordano), on Sunday, September 8, at 2 p.m. at Haddonfield United Methodist Church, 29 Warwick Road, Haddonfield, NJ. Performing large-ensemble jazz classics from the ’20s and early 1930s, the 13-piece core BSO will work from bandleader Richard Barnes’ collection of original vintage stock charts and arrangements to authentically and accurately recreate many classic jazz recordings that once spun on a Victrola. At the heart of the BSO is the duo of Barnes and violinist Dr. Michael Salsburg. Reach Seniors and Kids of Seniors in City Suburban News! Barnes is currently re-creating the original 1923-30 Paul Whiteman band library, which he led in performances both at TSJS and in Rose Tree Park near Media, PA, last year. The founder of Eddie Lang Day (TSJS will co-sponsor in 2019 on Sunday, October 27, at the Community Arts Center in Wallingford, PA), the annual music/charity event celebrates the musical contributions of the native Philadelphian and pioneer jazz guitarist (nee Salvatore Massaro), who teamed with his boyhood pal, violinist Joe Venuti, to form one of the all-time legendary duos in jazz history. PHILADELPHIA AND THE MAIN LINE’S FAVORITE WEEKLY Dr. Michael Salsburg has been performing all forms of music for over 40 years including hot jazz, bluegrass, blues, country & western, zydeco, Cajun and swing music. He played professionally in Hollywood in the early 1970s, with gigs that included an appearance in the Gable and Lombard movie, and a spot on the Tonight Show with actor David Carradine, in addition to recordings such as Billy Joel’s Piano Man album. This concert has been made possible by funds from the Camden County Cultural and Heritage Commission, a partner of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts. Member admission is $10, general admission is $20. Introductory offer – start a new, firsttime TSJS annual membership ($20) at the door and receive free admission to this concert (this offer is not applicable to renewing or reactivating membership.)

The outdoor plaza at the front of the C-shaped building would be the ideal venue for the Annual Fashion Show produced by fashion design and merchandising students. The generous grounds, the ponds, the native wildlife and water fowl and surrounding trees and flora offer a natural classroom for photography and graphic design students. The space will allow Harcum to offer a new major in Art & Design (fine and visual arts) beginning in 2020. The Center will also house Harcum’s Partnership Sites program offices. Other curricular ideas are in discussion, inspired by the dedicated space. Plans include offering gallery shows and bringing in artists-in-residence—a nod to Zipin. TV and radio studios on the lower level will offer the ideal catalyst for opening up Harcum to other organizations to use those facilities. The step is a bold one for Harcum, which had not acquired new learning space since 2010. However, it became evident that the College needed to anticipate adding more learning space to accommodate more programs and students. The logical direction was to look close by, off campus, since the current Bryn Mawr campus cannot expand its location. A grand opening and ribbon cutting are scheduled for September. More information is available at www.harcum.edu/adcenter. Thanks for Reading City Suburban News Every Week!

“Marvel: Universe of Super Heroes” Extended By Popular Demand Second Most Successful Summer Exhibit Ever for The Franklin Institute Exhibit Closes September 11
In addition to extending the exhibit through September 11, “Marvel: Universe of Super Heroes” is now open daily from 9:30 a.m. until 8 p.m. (last entry at 6:30 p.m.). Shown is the Dr. Strange Mirror Room. Photo/Christine Mitchell he blockbuster summer exhibit “Marvel: Universe of Super Heroes” has been extended due to overwhelming popularity and demand through September 11. After a record-breaking presale of 40,000 tickets, the exhibit debuted in Philadelphia on April 13, 2019, as the East Coast premiere and only other U.S. announced stop. Following a highly-successful summer, “Marvel: Universe of Super Heroes” will now extend beyond Labor Day with evening hours daily. The exhibit is currently on-trend to host nearly 300,000 visitors by close—making “Marvel: Universe of Super Heroes” the most successful summer exhibit in the Institute’s history, second only to “King Tut” more than a decade ago. “The exhibit opened after a record-breaking ticket presale, the early buzz was remarkably positive, the overall response from visitors has been phenomenal, and the blockbuster film releases this anniversary year made the Philadelphia run even more significant,” said Larry Dubinski, President and CEO of The Franklin Institute. To mark Marvel’s 80th anniversary on Saturday, August 31, exhibit guests on this day will receive a commemorative button with unique “Marvel 80th” artwork, while supplies last. In addition to extending the exhibit through September 11, “Marvel: Universe of Super Heroes” is now open daily from 9:30 a.m. until 8 p.m. (last entry at 6:30 p.m.). Guests are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance at www.fi.edu to ensure their preferred timeslot. The immersive exhibition initially set to close September 2, features more than 300 original artifacts, including some of Marvel’s most iconic costumes, props, and original art. The exhibit’s next stop is Edmonton in Alberta, Canada this fall. The Franklin Institute presents “Marvel: Universe of Super Heroes” in the Nicholas and Athena Karabots Pavilion and in the Mandell Center through September 11, 2019. PECO, the premier corporate partner of The Franklin Institute, is the presenting sponsor of the exhibition. “Marvel: Universe of Super Heroes” is an exhibition by SC Exhibitions, Museum of Pop Culture (MoPOP) and Marvel Themed Entertainment. Designed by Studio TK. Daytime Tickets: Daily: 9:30 a.m. - 5 p.m. (last entry at 3:30 p.m.) includes General Admission to The Franklin Institute. Adults $35; Children (ages 3-11) $31. Members $12.
