Faculty and select graduate students in the department of music offer private lessons to members of all ages in the community.

Guest curator Elizabeth S. Hawley considers the history of American art through the collection at Auburn University. Pairing paintings from the museum’s iconic Advancing American Art Collection with other contemporary collection objects, this exhibition encourages visitors to ask what being and belonging in American art might mean in the past, the present and the future.

Acclaimed poet Nicole Sealey will engage faculty, students and the Auburn community as a poet-in-residence at The Jule. Working with Auburn’s collection by the 19th-century naturalist John James Audubon, Sealey will marry language and art by pairing works from Audubon’s monumental “The Birds of America” with both contemporary and historical poetic responses, inviting visitors to question the symbolic and cultural meanings we ascribe to the natural world.

Featuring objects on loan from the Whitney Museum of American Art alongside the university art collection, Women Artists in Ascendance pulls back the curtain on the story of modern American art by displaying works from a dozen women artists who were goliaths in their own right, including Helen Frankenthaler, Grace Hartigan and Lee Krasner.Organized in partnership with Art Bridges

On the 2nd Tuesday of each month, Auburn University's Davis Arboretum will give free walking tours. These tours will begin at noon at the pavilion off Garden Drive, and will highlight the Arboretum's collections of Alabama's native plants. Look for extra dates to be added during peak color seasons. This is a great way to be introduced to the amazing work being done at the Arboretum and the importance of preserving Alabama's vast biodiversity. It is also a great way for students and colleagues to get outside for some fresh air during the week!
