SUMMARY:James Welling: Cento at Fairfield University Art Museum
DESCRIPTION:Fairfield University Art Museum will present James Welling: Cento from September 25 through December 12\, 2026\, in the Walsh Gallery at the Regina A. Quick Center for the Arts. The exhibition marks the first American museum presentation of this major body of work by renowned contemporary photographer James Welling. \nFeaturing more than 60 photographs focused on the architecture and sculpture of ancient Greece and Rome\, the exhibition explores the intersection of photography\, painting\, printmaking\, and classical art. Welling’s process combines laser-printed photographs on plastic sheets with hand-applied oil paint\, oil sticks\, and powdered pigments\, creating layered works that challenge traditional ideas of photography and visual representation. \nThe title Cento references a form of ancient “found” poetry created through assembled fragments from existing works. Created between 2019 and 2021\, Welling’s photographs combine segments of ancient statuary and architecture with vivid color overlays that invite viewers to consider the lost polychromy of classical sculpture alongside modern reinterpretations of the ancient world. \nThe exhibition also includes works from Welling’s Personae series\, which reimagines ancient portrait busts by incorporating eyes taken from Old Master paintings. Through this process\, the artist seeks to symbolically “reanimate” figures from antiquity for contemporary audiences. \nIn addition to Welling’s photographs\, the exhibition will feature 10 historic plaster casts selected from Fairfield University Art Museum’s collection of more than 100 casts to complement the themes of transformation and reinterpretation found throughout the exhibition. \nJames Welling\, a Connecticut-born artist associated with the influential “Picture Generation\,” has exhibited internationally and is represented by David Zwirner Gallery. His work is included in major museum collections around the world. \nThe exhibition will be accompanied by a series of free public programs including an opening night lecture with the artist on September 24 at 5:30 pm\, followed by a reception at 6:30 pm. Additional programming includes family art activities\, a symposium on archaeological visual practices\, lectures\, and a December 3 anatomical drawing workshop inspired by the exhibition and the Museum’s plaster cast collection. \nFairfield University Art Museum is located at 1073 North Benson Road\, Fairfield\, CT 06824. All exhibition programs are free and open to the public\, though some events require advance registration due to limited capacity. \nFor more information and a complete schedule of events\, visit the Fairfield University Art Museum website.

SUMMARY:La Noce d’Alfonse at Regina A. Quick Center for the Arts
DESCRIPTION:Cirque Alfonse brings La Noce d’Alfonse (Alfonse’s Wedding) to the Regina A. Quick Center for the Arts on Sunday\, September 27\, at 4 pm. This lively circus-cabaret production combines acrobatics\, live music\, caustic humor\, and audience interaction in a celebration inspired by a vintage 1970s wedding. \nThe performance unfolds through a series of acrobatic\, love-infused tableaux honoring the union of one lucky couple selected from the audience. With unexpected twists\, festive poetry\, and plenty of crowd interaction\, the production embraces the irreverent and daring spirit associated with Cirque Alfonse. \nCaribbean influences and Québécois folk traditions shape the live music\, creating the atmosphere of a grand\, delightfully kitschy wedding celebration. The result is a performance that balances tenderness and humor with the physical energy of circus arts. \nLa Noce d’Alfonse will be presented at the Regina A. Quick Center for the Arts. Additional information about the performance is available at the Quick Center for the Arts event page.

SUMMARY:Bank of America Capalbo Strong Walk at Jennings Beach
DESCRIPTION:The Bank of America Capalbo Strong Walk returns to Fairfield on Sunday\, October 4\, honoring the legacy of Charlie Capalbo and bringing the community together to support pediatric cancer research and families facing similar challenges. \nRegistration begins at 7 am\, with the 24K walk starting at 8 am from Jennings Beach. The 15-mile course loops through nearby Fairfield\, allowing participants to complete one 5-mile lap\, two laps\, or the full distance. The course keeps walkers close to the beach\, making it possible to stop whenever needed. \nParticipants are asked to pay the registration fee and raise a minimum of $300. Virtual participants are asked to pay the registration fee and raise a minimum of $100. \nFounded in 2017 by Fairfield Prep hockey moms during Charlie’s first battle with cancer\, Capalbo Strong was created to support Charlie and his family. Charlie faced Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and Leukemia and courageously beat cancer three times before passing away in April 2022\, just one month shy of his 24th birthday. The walk continues his legacy by raising funds for pediatric cancer efforts\, including the Charlie Capalbo Memorial Fund at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute\, as well as future grants to local hospitals\, programs\, and organizations that support families facing childhood cancer. \nThe Bank of America Capalbo Strong Walk takes place at Jennings Beach in Fairfield\, CT. The new home-based route allows more friends\, neighbors\, and supporters to participate while honoring Charlie in the community where he lived and was deeply loved. \nLearn more and register
