  • Exhibition: '5 Takes on African Art/42 Flags' by Fred Wilson
    January 23—April 29, 2018, Tue/Wed/Thu/Fri 11:00 am-4:30 pm January 27—April 29, 2018, weekends 2:00 pm-5:00 pm This event does NOT occur on: March 10—March 18 Exhibition extended through April 29 Continuing a tradition of hosting challenging, exploratory exhibitions organized by student curatorial teams, this year’s team of graduate students have curated an exhibition of African art drawn from the collection of Charles Derby, a UMass alumnus who has been collecting African art since the 1970s, in tandem with an exhibition of Flags of Africa by the renowned African-American artist Fred Wilson. The five curators come from a variety of disciplines and contribute a multiplicity of viewpoints to the curatorial process. Working with a private collection, a collector, and a contemporary artist, this project offers a new model in exhibition curation, particularly in the way the conversation about African art is shared among the various disciplines on our campus, and how an artist can participate and inform the project in an innovative way.

  • Marriott Meals
    February 6—April 26, 2018, Tue/Wed/Thu This event does NOT occur on: February 27—March 1, April 17 In 2007, the Marriott Center for Hospitality Management opened for its first active semester. After 18 months under construction, the 11th floor of the Campus Center was reinvented into a 200-seat dining facility named in honor of J. Willard and Alice S. Marriott. The $6.3 million facility encompasses two state-of-the-art commercial production and demonstration kitchen classrooms. Each week, students alternate roles within the “classroom” participating in every aspect of the restaurant business. Students attend one lecture each week that pulls together information from all core hospitality classes. Students learn high-quality standards of guest service, staffing, ordering and receiving, food costs and accounting, and overall operations techniques to running a full service restaurant. Students rotate through different positions teaching them hands on about sanitary codes, food preparation techniques, and proper serving temperatures. The students change roles within the establishment from dishwasher to food prep to serving to actually managing the operation. Marriott Meals gives Hospitality and Tourism Management students  a competitive advantage within this experiential learning class. This restaurant operations course allows students to make real life mistakes and correct those mistakes in a professional, hospitable manner. This class is not a simulation and is open to the public during meal hours. Not only is this class teaching the future leaders of hospitality about food preparation and operations, but how to think as a leader on their feet in the moment. This class is about real students becoming real leaders to the public on our very own campus.
