Lea Goldman

12:15 p.m.

Midwest Museum of

American Art, 429 S. Main St., Elkhart

Lea Goldman will be featured as the Exhibiting Artist at the Midwest Museum of American Art’s Noon Time Talk series today.

The presentation will begin at 12:15 p.m. Masks are required for all gallery talks for the unvaccinated and strongly recommended for the vaccinated. Gallery Talks or Noon Time Talks will be limited to 50 people on a first-come, first-served basis. Doors will be locked at 12:15 p.m. No admittance to the museum by the public will be allowed until the talk has concluded and the galleries emptied and sterilized

As a full-time painter and printmaker, Goldman will discuss her role as a storyteller. Her work is narrative in nature with close attention to abstract elements, according to information provided by the museum. Goldman’s interest in multi-cultural traditions, legends, and folklore evolved into personal mythology, constantly developing, and expressed in an array of images and materials.

This Noon Time Film is a part of an ongoing series of educational discussions and films held every Thursday at the Midwest Museum of American Art. For admission hours and pricing, visit midwestmuseum.us.

Harlem Quartet

4 p.m.

O’Neill Hall of Music, Notre Dame

Grammy-winning Harlem Quartet deftly navigates classical music’s European tradition by immersing audiences in repertoire by underrepresented composers. Founded in 2006 with black and Latinx string players awarded as Sphinx Competition first-place laureates, the quartet notes performances with distinguished artists in many genres like Paquito D’Rivera, Chick Corea, Itzhak Perlman, and Jeremy Denk. Harlem Quartet performs a jazz-inflected program.

The ensemble includes violinists Melissa White and Ilmar Gavilán, who left Cuba at age 14 and co-founded Harlem Quartet, violist Jaime Amador, and cellist Felix Umansky. Umansky is no stranger to the University of Notre Dame. He was a member of the 2009 Fischoff Competition grand prize-winning Linden Quartet, performing that year on the center’s Presenting Series.

Single tickets are on sale for $32 regular and $15 students at performingarts.nd.edu. For more information, visit or call the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center Ticket Office from noon to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday at 574-631-2800.
