Roosevelt Arts Project

Roosevelt Arts Project Art, music & poetry created by Roosevelt residents & friends

The Roosevelt Arts Project (RAP) is a collaborative venture of friends and neighbors in and around Roosevelt, New Jersey. Bringing together artists in a variety of media, our mission is to foster collaboration and present their work to the public. Founded in 1986 by the nationally known artists, Bernarda Bryson Shahn and Jacob Landau, and others including writers and musicians, the Roosevelt Arts

Project presents a series of annual programs. This varied series premieres new works by Roosevelt playwrights, painters and potters, folk singers, poets, and composers, as well as experimental collaborations.

The Roosevelt Poets have been stirring things up since 1975. We hope you’ll join us once again on April 11th at 3:00 pm at Roosevelt Borough Hall for a night of poetry that reminds us all why poems were meant to be heard — not just read but spoken aloud.

The Roosevelt Arts Project is proud to announce its upcoming exhibition, Collage!, A Two-Day Pop-Up Celebration, curated by Ron Kostar, opening on March 7th and running through March
8th. In an era of material abundance, rapid change and limited attention spans, collage has emerged as an art form uniquely suited to our times. The impulse to cut, paste, and reassemble life’s fragments into new forms has produced a variety of voices and new
approaches to collage-making. This two-day pop-up exhibition will feature works by Roosevelt and other local artists whose backgrounds and experience are as varied as the
art form itself.

The show will take place in the newly renovated Roosevelt Borough Hall.
March 7th from 11 to 4 pm
March 8th from 11 to 3 pm

Throughout his life, Johannes Brahms surrounded himself with a remarkable circle of composers, confidants, and admirers. Mallach will bring their stories to life through music and commentary, revealing the connections behind some of the 19th century's most beautiful compositions.
