“Marie Rader programming re-
flects the rigorous research and
creative practice associated with
an R2 institution thereby reinforc-
ing Rowan’s collective identity,”
Shapiro said. “As a beacon for
inclusion and diversity, our pro-
gramming is developed to be at
the center of the Rowan experi-
ence. We aspire to be the go-to
cultural center for the region, at
the core of international practice
and dialogue and pioneers in the
development and presentation of
relevant work. Our curatorial val-
ues are guided by the values of
both the college and the strategic
pillars of the university: Access, Af-
fordability, Excellence, and serving
as an Economic Engine.”
The upcoming College of
Performing Arts season reflects
this mission:
• A performance by the Wynton
Marsalis Quintet on Friday, No-
vember 8, will be the prologue
to the 50th anniversary celebra-
tion of the Rowan Jazz Festival
in the spring and will kick off the
2019-1010 Marie Rader Present-
