Joany Lincoln Presents

Musical Adventures on Four Continents

Saturday, September 21, 2024 at 7:30pm

Joan Lincoln, born in the United States, has lived outside of the United States for four decades on four continents, in a life dedicated to strengthening human connection. This immense life experience has offered Joany a multitude of lessons on music and culture. Through live piano improvisation, original compositions and other performative elements, Joany will share and illustrate some of her learning. She will explore how music both shapes and is shaped by peoples’ life experiences, the theme of music as a universal language, and the social impact of music in the lives of adults and in the education of children.

Seeing Red: A Fusion of Color, Fashion, and Art

August 26 - October 4, 2024

The color red has captivated artists for centuries. Red, made from ochre, was one of the first colors used in prehistoric art. To this day, the many shades of red are amongst the most evocative colors out there. In fashion, you’ll find glimpses of red throughout every era and trend. From Alexander McQueen’s compelling use of red in infamous collections such as his 1998 Autumn/Winter collection titled Joan, where a red figure stood engulfed in flames, to Givenchy’s influential crimson sheath on Audrey Hepburn in the 1957 musical Funny Face. 

 

With red having historically played a role in some of the most iconic moments in fashion and art, we’re now curious to see how today’s generation of artists will continue the legacy.
