Mixed media works in ROMANUM by Ron Maggio are inspired by the wall paintings (or frescos) from houses and villas of Rome, Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Boscoreale, dating from the second century B.C. and the first century A.D. The artist works within classical sensibilities of architectural space and color and incorporates the rich color palette employed by Roman fresco painters.
Opening Reception March 6, 5:00-7:00 PM.

Deep within the underworld, a skeleton Dodo and boy dig daily for fresh bones to replace their deteriorating ones, desperately trying to keep from disappearing. But one day, the Dodo miraculously sprouts feathers–and everything changes.

The transformation sends the two friends into a chaotic journey as they flee the wrath of the Skeleton King and fight to stay together as they are drawn into the heart of an epic battle between life and death.

From Wakka Wakka, Dead as a Dodo is an inspirational musical odyssey about true friendship and the will to survive against all odds. Together, the impossible can become the possible.

Kalos is a trio of innovative interpreters and composers of Celtic roots music—Eric McDonald, Ryan McKasson, and Jeremiah McLane. Masters of tradition with a taste for its shadowed edges, Kalos delivers music of striking complexity, spontaneity, and joyful exuberance. Driven by pulsing rhythm and deep artistic integrity, their sound reimagines Celtic, Breton, and American traditions on accordion, guitar, fiddle, and vocals. Long-standing friendships fuel a playful, high-energy stage presence, making live performance the heart of their artistry.

Opening the evening are harpist Rachel Clemente and piper Dan Houghton, leaders of New England’s Celtic folk vanguard. Rooted in Scottish tradition yet boldly avant-garde, the duo blends original compositions with traditional melodies. Clemente is the 2016 U.S. National Scottish Harp Champion and a graduate of the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. Houghton is an award-winning Scottish piper, flautist, and guitarist who has toured and taught internationally with numerous acclaimed ensembles.

Cape Breton’s Celtic legend Natalie MacMaster and fiddle virtuoso Donnell Leahy bring some of the world’s top Celtic Musicians to join them for an incredible night in Storrs! This musical journey will feature true all-stars from Ireland, England, Scotland and beyond. Natalie and Donnell will explore the connections between Celtic styles across countries and take the audience from the music’s ancient roots to its modern trends. Join Natalie, Donnell, their daughter Mary Frances and their special guests for a one-of-a-kind performance filled with fiery fiddling, electrifying energy, and the heart
and soul of Celtic music!
