Alpert (March 27-May 18)Primary Traces: Sculptural Works by Richard H. Alpert
March 27 – May 18
Porter Hall, Pittsburg State University

Discover Primary Traces, an inspiring exhibition showcasing the sculptural works of Richard H. Alpert. Known for his dynamic abstract forms, vibrant colors, and intricate spatial constructions, Alpert’s work invites viewers to explore movement, geometry, and depth through bold, carefully balanced compositions.

Alpert’s artistic journey began in New York City and evolved through formative study at the University of Pittsburgh and the San Francisco Art Institute. Influenced by thinkers and creators ranging from physicist Richard Feynman to artist Marcel Duchamp and photographer Jan Dibbets, Alpert brings a multidisciplinary curiosity to every piece. His career has spanned exhibitions across the United States, Europe, and Japan, and includes a National Endowment Fellowship Grant in Sculpture.

Primary Traces offers an intimate look at the evolution of his artistic voice—one shaped not only by exploration and experimentation, but also by resilience. Following the loss of his San Francisco studio in a 1986 explosion and fire, Alpert rebuilt both his practice and creative direction, continuing to push the boundaries of sculptural form.

Immerse yourself in this vivid journey through color, motion, and conceptual discovery. The exhibition is free and open to the public.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience Richard H. Alpert’s innovative work up close.

A reception will follow at 8 p.m. in the Heritage Room. The event is free and open to the public and is sponsored by the Distinguished Visiting Writers Series and the Student Fee Council.

Creative Writing Professor Laura Lee Washburn expressed strong enthusiasm about Lee’s visit, noting both the power of his work and the presence he brings to audiences.

“David Lee’s ‘The Porcupine Canticles’ is an American classic. I can’t stop teaching this book. It’s moving and hilarious, surprising, warm, and beautiful. Almost everyone I’ve introduced to it has loved this book,” she said.

Known for his humor, storytelling, and deep connection to rural life, Lee’s readings are as memorable as his writing.

Lee is the author of more than two dozen poetry collections, including “The Porcine Canticles,” “News from Down to the Café,” and “Rusty Barbed Wire: Selected Poems.”

He served as the first Poet Laureate of Utah and has received numerous honors, including fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Humanities, as well as the Western States Book Award and the Mountain and Plains States Booksellers Award.

A former seminary student, pig farmer, and semi-professional baseball player, Lee holds a Ph.D. from Utah State University with a focus on John Milton and taught for more than three decades at Southern Utah University.

With a book by Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse, music by John Kander, and lyrics by Fred Ebb, Chicago is Broadway’s longest-running American musical — and it’s still going strong. Winner of six Tony Awards®, two Olivier Awards, a Grammy®, and countless standing ovations, it continues to captivate audiences worldwide.

This tour is directed by David Hyslop with choreography by Gregory Butler, based on the original work of Tony Award winners Walter Bobbie and Ann Reinking. The creative team also includes Tony Award winners John Lee Beatty (set design), William Ivey Long (costumes), and Ken Billington (lighting).

Set in the razzle-dazzle world of the 1920s, Chicago tells the story of Roxie Hart, a housewife and nightclub dancer who kills her lover and schemes her way to fame with the help of a slick lawyer, sparking sensational headlines that feel ripped from today’s tabloids.

From Mexico City to Moscow, São Paulo to South Africa, Chicago has wowed audiences everywhere. Whether it’s your first Broadway experience, you’ve seen the Oscar®-winning film, or you’re ready to relive the magic, this is one show you can’t miss.

Ticket sales begin on Monday, Aug. 25.

Ticket prices:

Tickets vary with seating location and range from $61 to $75 for early bird purchases prior to Oct. 1, and from $64 to $89 for purchases after Oct. 1.

Discounts apply for seniors, children/students, and faculty/staff.

Alpert (March 27-May 18)Primary Traces: Sculptural Works by Richard H. Alpert
March 27 – May 18
Porter Hall, Pittsburg State University

Discover Primary Traces, an inspiring exhibition showcasing the sculptural works of Richard H. Alpert. Known for his dynamic abstract forms, vibrant colors, and intricate spatial constructions, Alpert’s work invites viewers to explore movement, geometry, and depth through bold, carefully balanced compositions.

Alpert’s artistic journey began in New York City and evolved through formative study at the University of Pittsburgh and the San Francisco Art Institute. Influenced by thinkers and creators ranging from physicist Richard Feynman to artist Marcel Duchamp and photographer Jan Dibbets, Alpert brings a multidisciplinary curiosity to every piece. His career has spanned exhibitions across the United States, Europe, and Japan, and includes a National Endowment Fellowship Grant in Sculpture.

Primary Traces offers an intimate look at the evolution of his artistic voice—one shaped not only by exploration and experimentation, but also by resilience. Following the loss of his San Francisco studio in a 1986 explosion and fire, Alpert rebuilt both his practice and creative direction, continuing to push the boundaries of sculptural form.

Immerse yourself in this vivid journey through color, motion, and conceptual discovery. The exhibition is free and open to the public.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience Richard H. Alpert’s innovative work up close.

This interactive workshop is designed to help supervisors better understand their own emotional patterns and how those patterns influence their effectiveness at work.

This session is engaging and reflective, with opportunities for discussion, application, and practical planning. Participants will leave with greater self-awareness and specific strategies for strengthening their supervisory impact.

Learning Objectives:

Upon successful completion of this workshop, participants will be able to:Interpret their individual Emotional Intelligence assessment results and identify personal strengths and growth areas.Explain the four quadrants of Emotional Intelligence and how each influences supervisory effectiveness.Recognize how emotional awareness and regulation affect communication, conflict management, and decision-making.Apply Emotional Intelligence principles to improve relationships with team members and respond more effectively to challenging situations.Develop a personal action plan to strengthen Emotional Intelligence in their supervisory role.

Designed for both beginning and advanced musicians, the camp offers instruction in a collaborative and engaging environment led by jazz faculty and regional musicians.

Participants will explore a variety of areas, including large band performance, jazz theory, improvisation, master classes, and (for advanced students) small jazz combos. The camp concludes with a final concert where students will perform for family and friends.

This camp is held in honor of Josiah Fletcher, a talented young bassist from Pittsburg High School whose passion for jazz and making music with others continues to inspire. The program celebrates his legacy by providing students the opportunity to grow musically and connect with others through jazz.

Registration is available through the Josiah Fletcher Foundation: https://www.josiahfletcherfoundation.org/programs

Faculty and staff housed in Grubbs Hall will host a 150th birthday celebration for that late professor at noon on Friday, Sept. 25, in the basement lobby. The event will feature cake and brief remarks highlighting his life and legacy.

Grubbs served Pittsburg State University as a professor of history and economics and completed two terms in the Kansas Legislature. Known for his dedication to teaching, he remained on the faculty well past the mandatory retirement age, retiring in 1959 at the age of 83. He died at home just a few blocks from campus at age 92.

In addition to his academic and public service, Grubbs was a longtime advisor to the Epsilon chapter of Sigma Tau Gamma fraternity and was once recognized as the oldest fraternity sponsor in the United States.

Grubbs Hall, originally known as the O.F. Grubbs Academic Building, was constructed at the corner of Cleveland and Joplin streets as a classroom building. Today it is home to the departments of Communication and English & Modern Languages, the Grubbs Hall Studio Theatre, and the Communication Center.

In 1960, the main living room of the Sigma Tau Gamma fraternity house — located between Carnie Smith Stadium and the Wilkinson Alumni Center — was dedicated as the O.F. Grubbs Room.

Upon his death, Grubbs was survived by his wife, Rose, and their son, Richard Kent Grubbs.

The Sept. 25 event is open to campus and community members interested in celebrating Pittsburg’s sesquicentennial and honoring a figure whose life was closely intertwined with the city and the university.
