The USC Upstate Library is excited to host its fall Faculty Research Series. Dr. Nolan Stolz will present “10 Months on Route 66: Inspiration for New Orchestral Music.” The event will take place on Thursday, October 12, 2023 at 7 P.M. in Tukey Lecture Theatre (USC Upstate Library) and is open to all.
Dr. Stolz is a composer, scholar, drummer, and Associate Professor of Music at USC Upstate. He has spent over 300 days traveling Route 66 seeking inspiration for his forthcoming work for symphony orchestra, the Route 66 Suite. During his talk, Dr. Stolz will share his experiences from the road, histories he has uncovered, and how it has been impacting the music.
For more information, please call 864-503-5620.
The exhibition examines the complicated history and impact of Executive Order 9066 that led to the incarceration of Japanese Americans following the attack on Pearl Harbor. “Righting a Wrong” examines issues such as immigration, prejudice, civil rights, heroism, and what it means to be an American. The exhibition centers around eight core questions that encourage viewers to engage in a dialogue about how this happened and whether it could happen again. “Righting a Wrong: Japanese Americans and World War II” was developed by the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History and adapted for travel by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Services (SITES). The traveling exhibition and poster exhibition are supported by a grant from the Asian Pacific American Initiatives Pool, administered by the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center, the Terasaki Family Foundation, and C. L. Ehn & Ginger Lew.
