SUMMARY:Gallery Night Reception at the Grohmann Museum
DESCRIPTION:“Lina Bertucci: Railroad Voices—The Milwaukee Road\, 1974–1977” \nGallery Night Event featuring a Gallery Talk with Lina Bertucci and Cindy Angelos: The first women to work in the Milwaukee Road yards. \nLina Bertucci was hired by the Chicago\, Milwaukee\, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad (The Milwaukee Road) in 1974 as a brakeman (brakewoman). She was only the second woman to work in the Milwaukee Road yards\, following her aunt\, Cindy Angelos. Both Bertucci and Angelos entered training on the same day\, and their arrival immediately sent tremors through the male-dominated field. But through ambition and optimism\, they settled in by demonstrating full competence in their many challenges. While difficult\, the work paid more than most other entry-level jobs and appealed to their adventuresome spirits. \nAs an aspiring artist\, Bertucci arrived armed with her camera in her bag\, at first hoping to simply fit in\, to be respected as more than just the “girl with the camera.” Before long\, she was accepted by most of her colleagues and set about chronicling her experience and daily toil\, and did so for three years\, until The Milwaukee Road filed for bankruptcy protection in 1977. In recalling her work\, she notes that “these photographs were never simply creative memories of a personal experience\, but a record of a social and historical moment—a communal cultural and industrial transformation that intersected with my own identity as I stood witness to its passing.” \nBertucci’s work while on ‘The Road’ resurfaces for this special display of an important part of Milwaukee’s industrial history and a woman’s impact on art and industry. Through her portraits of the railroad and the railroad worker\, we are provided an insider’s view of a world few had access to\, but so many were impacted by.

SUMMARY:Artists Reception: Out There
DESCRIPTION:Kim Storage Gallery is pleased to present Out There\, a two-person exhibition of new work by Hector Acuna and Andy Paczos. The title borrows the advice a teacher gave Paczos at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago: look out the window\, “there’s lots of good stuff out there.” He took it\, and has painted Chicago from direct observation for three decades since. Acuna works the same way\, returning to his Wisconsin sites across multiple plein air sessions and staging handmade props to paint in natural light. Both find their subjects by standing in front of them.

SUMMARY:Community Wayfinding: Building Identity\, Connectivity\, and Economic Vitality
DESCRIPTION:Community wayfinding systems do much more than direct people from one destination to another—they shape how residents and visitors experience a place. This lecture explores the planning\, design\, and implementation of community wayfinding programs\, beginning with downtown business districts and expanding to neighborhoods\, parks\, regional trail systems\, and community gateways. \nLearn about the newly developed Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation Community Wayfinding Toolkit\, demonstrating how communities of all sizes can create coordinated wayfinding systems that enhance economic development\, visitor experiences\, and local pride. \nShowcasing examples from Wisconsin cities\, presenters will share how wayfinding supports tourism\, strengthens community identity\, and reinforces branding through coordinated logo and graphic design. Speakers will share the process of developing a successful wayfinding program\, including stakeholder committees\, public engagement\, funding strategies\, sign hierarchy\, walkable maps\, messaging\, GIS mapping\, and long-term maintenance responsibilities. The process and outcomes highlight the importance of designing wayfinding systems at multiple scales\, from pedestrian-oriented downtown signage to regional trail networks connected to county recreation systems.

SUMMARY:Robin Trower
DESCRIPTION:Even now\, as he reaches his eighth decade\, with a lifetime of accolades and a seminal body of music behind him\, Robin Trower is still chasing the biggest high he knows. It always starts the same way\, with a road-scuffed Fender Stratocaster and a revved-up Marshall amplifier\, those skilful fingers exploring the fretboard until a riff sticks and a new song ignites. And from the cultural flashpoint of Sixties London with Procol Harum\, through 1974’s stadium-filling Bridge Of Sighs\, right up to this year’s acclaimed Come And Find Me\, it’s these addictive moments of creation that have kept the guitarist vital\, relevant and contemporary while his peers trade on past glories. \n“Some people say I’m driven\, but I think it’s just the love of doing it\,” reflects Trower of a multi-million-selling solo catalogue fast approaching thirty releases (and that’s before you compute his collaborations with everyone from Jack Bruce to Bryan Ferry). “I play guitar every day and just through messing around\, ideas happen. I can never feel the songs coming. But all of a sudden\, you get a sliver of an idea and you think\, ‘Oh\, what’s this…?’” \nRight now\, Trower stands on the cusp of a whirlwind year that will see him put down heavy miles across America and the UK (“I’m chomping at the bit\, because I had to cancel a US tour last year due to an operation”). At the grand vintage of 80\, however\, this latest tour represents a mere stretch of the long road travelled. In his mind’s eye\, Trower can still see his Southend-on-Sea childhood in the ’50s\, and feel the formative influence of guitar players from across the water. “Rock ‘n’ roll\,” he says\, “was my first love. I’m still drawing on that first love for Come And Find Me.” \nWhen he reaches right back\, Trower’s earliest memory of that rebel movement is hearing Elvis sideman Scotty Moore (“He probably had the best sound of any rock ‘n’ roll player at the time”). Next came a life-changing spin of a friend’s imported single\, which happened to be B.B. King’s 3 O’ Clock Blues (“I just remember hearing the bends and vibrato and thinking\, ‘How the hell is he doing that?’”). Albert King’s Crosscut Saw\, Jimi Hendrix’s Machine Gun\, James Brown’s Live At The Apollo: all of them informed Trower’s musical personality as he made his first moves in 1959 with R&B hopefuls The Paramounts. \nThe big time beckoned in 1967 when Trower joined A Whiter Shade Of Pale hitmakers Procol Harum\, and many guitarists would have clung to that enviable position for life. Trower acknowledges his good fortune at being at the epicentre of that late-’60s youthquake (“I still think it was the epitome of UK popular music and rock ‘n’ roll”). But Procol’s band dynamic could never contain all his ideas\, and after five acclaimed albums\, Trower rolled the dice on a solo career. “It was something I had to do\,” he told Classic Rock. “But it could have all gone awry.” \nNeedless to say\, the history books have vindicated him. By 1974\, Trower was a major star in the land whose music had inspired him\, with Bridge Of Sighs’ heavy soul achieving Gold US sales and influencing future luminaries like Steve Lukather\, Metallica and countless more. “When I hear Bridge Of Sighs\, it’s like the earth under my feet is moving\,” the highly rated Canadian bluesman Philip Sayce told Guitarist in 2024. “It’s like a chest is heaving.” \nTrower himself is still proud of that deathless record (“I recognise the potency\, especially with Jimmy Dewar’s fantastic vocals”). Yet the veteran doesn’t dine out on Bridge Of Sighs – or his other hit albums of the late-’70s like For Earth Below\, Long Misty Days and In City Dreams – preferring to march ever onward. Stick a pin in his catalogue over the past decade alone and you’ll find projects from 2020’s United State Of Mind supergroup alongside Maxi Priest to the pairing with New York vocalist Sari Schorr on 2023’s Joyful Sky. “She’s dynamite\,” he says of the latter\, “and I’ll Be Moving On is a particular favourite of mine from that album.” \nTracked last year during four separate sessions at Newbury’s Studio 91 (the setting for all Trower’s recent solo albums)\, the genesis of Come And Find Me speaks volumes about the guitarist’s late-period momentum and high standards. “Here’s the thing\, I had enough material for two albums\,” he reflects. “I must have recorded 18 songs\, all finished. I honed that down to ten songs\, but when I listened back to the album again a few months later\, it didn’t quite hang together. So I recorded some new songs\, knocked others off the previous running order. A lot of work went into Come And Find Me – but it really does hang together well now.” \nNever one to let interviewers too deep into his headspace\, Trower once explained that each new album is a snapshot of his situation and worldview at that moment. As such\, Come And Find Me is the best way to know the guitarist better in 2025\, and this new record is clearly not the work of a lofty rock star but an engaged participant in the real world\, with relatable loves\, hates\, hopes and fears. “Musically\, there’s a strong R&B flavour behind it\, but it’s obviously rock ‘n’ roll\,” he explains. “Lyrically\, I think the world has become a lot darker in the last ten or twenty years. But there’s always hope. There’s more good people in the world than there are bad.” \nAlways a sociable musician and generous collaborator\, Trower enlisted his trusted studio band for Come And Find Me. Drummer Chris Taggart once again drives these powerful songs\, with returning US bassist Glenn Letsch providing low end on two tracks (Trower played the remainder). Long-standing vocalist Richard Watts brilliantly interprets the guitarist’s highly personal lyric sheets\, while guest singer Jess Hayes is a head-turning addition for Tangled Love’s tough\, choppy soul. For the fairydust\, Trower turned to Studio 91’s owner Sam Winfield for the engineering and final mix – but the guitarist was intimately involved with every element. “For me\, working on a new song is a 24-hour job\,” he explains. “It’s always on my mind. I’ll wake up in the middle of the night thinking about it.” \nLikewise\, the Come And Find Me tracks will take up residence in your head. A Little Bit Of Freedom starts in combative style with a blast of wah guitar and a bold first line (‘I don’t need no-one to think for me’). “I had a strong sense that red tape and rules are really constricting things in the world\,” says Trower. “Too much red tape\, not enough freedom to think – it’s got to where you feel straitjacketed.” \nTrower’s ambivalent stance to the times is also writ large on cuts like the tremolo shudder of The Future Starts Right Here (“We’re becoming so tribal and taking sides\, like\, ‘Oh\, you’re not with me – I must hate you’”) and the stinging Without A Trace. “That song is about all the lies in politics\, mostly\, and on social media. You know\, this absolute out-and-out lying\, to try and influence people.” \nElsewhere\, the guitarist’s famed musicianship takes centre stage. Try the glowering angst and molten solo of Take This Hurt Away (“That song actually started when I thought to myself one day\, ‘I wonder what I would come up with if they asked me to write a song for a James Bond film…’”). Or spin the swampy One Go Round\, which lived up to the ‘seize-the-day’ lyric with its rapid birth in the studio. “That was almost an instant finished thing. It was like a hot knife through butter. All the lead work was improvised\, and it’s exactly where I live. The lyrical meaning is pretty obvious. You only get one go round\, so try and make the most of it.” \nAs the album unfolds\, Trower reminds us of his ability to write a cliché-free love song\, via the hard-driving I Would Lose My Mind\, the glistening smoulder of Capture The Life Begun and the push/pull groove of I Fly Straight To You. “That’s pretty basic stuff\, isn’t it?” he smiles of the latter. “A guy is mad about a girl. It’s almost like a Beatles lyric\, like\, ‘I want to hold your hand…’” \nCome And Find Me is a grand statement that demands a big finish\, and Trower duly reserves a very special guitar solo for the closing Time Stood Still\, his emotive string bends and shivers of vibrato matching a hypnotic vocal that finds two lovers stopping the clocks in each other’s arms. “I had that complete piece before I started on the lyric\,” he says. “I think it’s beautiful. It’s a lovely feeling to go out on.” \nFiery\, thoughtful and fuelled by real human emotion in a time of machine-generated music\, Come And Find Me is hardly the work of a rock icon resting on his laurels. On the contrary: keenly aware of passing time\, Robin Trower has made it his late-period mission to capture as many shards of magic as possible. “In one way\, I can’t believe it\, that I’m still going at 80\,” he says. “It’s kind of scary. You know that you’re way down the road\, and you could hit a brick wall at any time. But I still love doing this. For me\, there’s nothing more rewarding than working on a new song…”

SUMMARY:Samara Joy and her Septet
DESCRIPTION:A native of the Bronx\, Samara Joy became entranced by classic R&B as a child and cut her teeth as a singer in her church’s gospel choir. And while her family history is deeply musical—her grandparents helmed the Philadelphia gospel group the Savettes\, and her father\, the musician and songwriter Antonio McLendon\, has produced\, composed and arranged his own astounding original work—she didn’t delve into the jazz tradition until college at SUNY Purchase. During her studies there she won the 2019 Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition\, which introduced her to the larger jazz scene as a rising star to watch. She was heard\, by audiences and critics alike\, as a masterful interpreter of jazz standards and a rightful heiress of the sound\, technique and charisma that defined her jazz heroines—including Vaughan\, Betty Carter\, Abbey Lincoln and Carmen McRae. \nJoy released her self-titled debut on the Whirlwind label in 2021\, followed a year later by Linger Awhile\, her breakout Verve debut\, of which Down Beat said\, “With this beautiful recording\, a silky-voiced star is born.” The album earned her a Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal Album in addition to a headline-making win for Best New Artist. A deluxe edition of the album was released\, as well as the EP A Joyful Holiday\, which took home Grammys for Best Jazz Vocal Album and Best Jazz Performance in 2025. Her latest Verve album\, Portrait\, which Joy co-produced with the veteran trumpeter/bandleader and multi-Grammy winner Brian Lynch\, showcases the intimate\, soulful chemistry she’s developed with her touring band\, earning her an NAACP Image Award in 2025 for Outstanding Jazz Album and the GRAMMY for Best Vocal Jazz Album in 2026. Portrait also spotlights her burgeoning gifts as a lyricist\, in ingenious arrangements that meld her thoughtful words with music by Charles Mingus\, Sun Ra and her late mentor Barry Harris
