Calling all Artists!
Opportunity is knocking

Utility Box Art Wrap Program | City of Rancho Cordova.

BIG NEWS! The museum is thrilled to announce the West Coast debut of “Young, Gifted and Black: The Lumpkin-Boccuzzi Family Collection of Contemporary Art” opening July 28.

The exhibition champions younger-generation artists of African descent, in dialogue with established predecessors, who are exploring questions of race, sexuality, power and history, while also pushing the boundaries of artistic practice.

Kara Walker, Kerry James Marshall, Mickalene Thomas, Tomashi Jackson, Sadie Barnette, Eric N. Mack, Troy Michie, Jennifer Packer, Paul Mpagi Sepuya and Tunji Adeniyi-Jones are among the artists featured in this traveling exhibition drawn from the renowned private collection of Bernard I. Lumpkin and Carmine D. Boccuzzi.

“I belong here,” a neon sculpture by Tavares Strachan, also on loan from the Lumpkin-Boccuzzi Collection, is on view in the Manetti Shrem Museum’s lobby through March 2023.

Mark your calendars for July 28, when the museum reopens with “Young, Gifted and Black: The Lumpkin-Boccuzzi Family Collection of Contemporary Art.”

In honor of Summer Solstice-
“The Sunflowers” by Mary Oliver

Come with me
into the field of sunflowers.
Their faces are burnished disks,
their dry spines

creak like ship masts,
their green leaves,
so heavy and many,
fill all day with the sticky

sugars of the sun.
Come with me
to visit the sunflowers,
they are shy

but want to be friends;
they have wonderful stories
of when they were young –
the important weather,

the wandering crows.
Don’t be afraid
to ask them questions!
Their bright faces,

which follow the sun,
will listen, and all
those rows of seeds –
each one a new life!

hope for a deeper acquaintance;
each of them, though it stands
in a crowd of many,
like a separate universe,

is lonely, the long work
of turning their lives
into a celebration
is not easy. Come

and let us talk with those modest faces,
the simple garments of leaves,
the coarse roots in the earth
so uprightly burning.

The summer solstice is the longest day of the year, and the shortest night. In the Northern Hemisphere it takes place between June 20 and 22, depending on the year. (The reverse is true in the Southern Hemisphere, where the longest day of the year occurs between December 20 and 22.) Humans may have observed the summer solstice as early as the Stone Age. Cultures around the world still celebrate the day with feasts, bonfires, picnics and songs. https://www.history.com/topics/natural-disasters-and-environment/history-of-summer-solstice

Juneteenth is a day of deep reflection. It commemorates the day in 1865 when the last remaining enslaved people in Galveston, Texas finally learned of their freedom, established by the Emancipation Proclamation over two years before. We are honoring its importance by using it as an opportunity to listen, engage in conversation, and remember the long struggle for true liberty and justice for all in the United States.

Cal Cap Doc Fest Youth Jury Program focuses on giving young people a chance to enter the film industry, meet key industry figures, select films for the festival, interview filmmakers from around the world, and collectively select a winner for the youth jury program award.
