🎓 Congratulations to our Brooklyn College Class of 2026 Salutatorian, Hideka Minami! 🎉🏆👏 Born in Hong Kong to Japanese parents and shaped by a life of cultural fluidity, Hideka has always known how to navigate the spaces in between. From international primary schools to building a family healthcare business while raising two children, her path back to the arts took 15 years, but she never stopped moving toward it. Now, she graduates with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Brooklyn College with a focus in painting, and her work is just as layered as her journey—exploring identity, memory, and how delayed recognition reshapes the way we see ourselves. In her own words: "As an average C/D student in high school, this is a very strange new identity for me, and I'm feeling so honored to represent Brooklyn College in this way." We are so proud to celebrate you, Hideka! ✨ — 👍 Follow Hideka Minami’s journey at @hidekaart 🎨 🖼 Check out her artwork at the BFA Capstone Exhibition alongside fellow VMPA students! 📅 May 12th - May 26th 📍 The Art Gallery at Brooklyn College 📰 Meet the 22 Artists Featured in B.F.A.

SAVE THE DATE: THURSDAY, APRIL 28 Join History undergraduates as they do performance-as-research about medieval asceticism, investigating premodern people who wholly committed their lives to a single purpose: pilgrims (who walked long distances to special destinations), stylites (who stoically sat on the top of pillars in the desert as exemplars of humility), hermits (who were caretakers of the environment and their community), and anchorites (who permanently "buried" themselves in small huts so they could best meditate on death while still alive). Come explore a corner of our campus that BC students will transform into a learning laboratory where they investigate what it meant to live intentionally in the premodern world. Students will be on hand to explain the scholarly rigor of our embodied research methodologies and the premodern historical context, and they will also help facilitate any willing audience members' participation in our performance-as-research. Location: Lily Pond and New Ingersoll steps and environs; rain space: Art Gallery, Lower Level Boylan. You can watch Professor Lauren Mancia talk about the use of performance as a tool of historical knowledge here: https://youtu.be/4YxpPd86Z_I?si=1ct-5-DxnXCZYrvW

THURSDAY., APRIL 28: Join us as we recreate the landscape of medieval mediterranean asceticism. Students from HIST 4006 will reperform the behaviors of medieval stylites, anchorites, hermits, and pilgrims. They do this in order to better understand why medieval people engaged in such extreme ascetic behavior (as cultural critique? as knowledge-making? as discovery?); and in order to better teach you, the audience, how such seemingly-weird and archaic behavior actually can teach us something about how to live in symbiotic community and how to productively critique human society in 2026. Location: Lily Pond and New Ingersoll steps and environs; rain space: Art Gallery, Lower Level Boylan.
