Rock Hall to mark 50 years of magazine

CLEVELAND

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame will celebrate 50 years of Rolling Stone magazine in a new exhibit set to open this spring in Cleveland.

The Rock Hall says the exhibit will explore the magazine’s archive of award-winning music and political and cultural reporting. It will open in conjunction with the release of the book “50 Years of Rolling Stone.”

The exhibit will include rarely heard stories, original manuscripts, music reviews and audio interviews that spotlight the artists, writers and others who shared a special partnership with the magazine that debuted in 1967.

Highlights of cover images reaching back to rock ‘n’ roll pioneers such as Elvis Presley and Chuck Berry also will be included in the exhibit that opens May 5. It will close in November.

Earth Day project for young students

SHARON, PA.

Penn State Shenango is gearing up for its second annual Earth Fest Upcycled Art Contest, which is taking place in conjunction with Earth Day on April 8.

The event aims to inspire elementary and middle school students to create treasure from trash.

The contest has two categories, both for kindergarten through sixth-grade students.

For the first category, teachers, Girl Scout leaders or others who put together a small group will need their students to create a two-dimensional or three-dimensional artwork using only material that has been previously used and/or destined for recycling or the landfill.

For the second category, students will work individually to create a two-dimensional or three-dimensional piece of artwork using the same types of materials.

For details or an entry form, go to personal.psu.edu. For information, contact Jen Jewell at 724-983-2886.

All artwork will be displayed at the Penn State Shenango Earth Fest in the campus art gallery located in Sharon Hall Room 222 on April 8.
