SUMMARY:A City Searching for Hope 20th Anniversary Memorial Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The 20th anniversary photo exhibit to feature WKU student and faculty work from September 11\, 2001 terrorist attack\nRidley and Hull Wealth Management Group of Stifel and the WKU School of Media to sponsor the exhibit at the Pushin Building in downtown Bowling Green\, Kentucky on Friday. The opening reception will be from noon to 4:00 pm with opening remarks at 1:00.\n  \nIt was September 11\, 2001. \nWithin a few hours after the World Trade Center towers fell and took a piece of America’s heart with them\, Western Kentucky University photojournalism students packed their cars with photography gear and headed north in search of answers. These students were not sure what they would find in New York\, they just knew they had to be there. By the week’s end\, two faculty had joined them. \nWhat they found was not just a story about smoldering buildings and twisted metal. They found stories about the people who worked in these buildings\, the rescuers trying to save them\, and the family and friends waiting to hear about the fate of their loved ones. By the following week\, the WKU team was back at school with thousands of photographs and one goal: to share their stories with as many people as they could. \nTwenty years later their images still resonate with us\, even haunt us. We are reminded of the profound emotional toll September 11\, 2001 had on our country. The images represent despair\, but also hope and resilience. \nOn September 10\, 2021\, Ridley and Hull Wealth Management Group of Stifel\, and The WKU School of Media will host an open house at the Pushin Building at 400 East Main Street\, Suite 100 in Bowling Green\, Kentucky\, from 12 to 4 p.m. Remarks will be at 1 p.m. The exhibit of 28 images will be open to the public from 10-4 p.m. on weekdays through the month of September. \nProfessor James Kenney\, coordinator of the Photojournalism program at WKU\, was one of the teachers who joined his students in New York in the aftermath of September 11. He expressed mixed emotions about his experience there and in seeing these images exhibited again 20 years later. \n“These images bring back unsettling memories of the pain\, suffering\, and uncertainty borne out of this terrible day. But they also represent the determination of my students to do their part in providing a visual reminder so that a nation would not forget\, and perhaps in some meaningful way contribute to its healing.” \nFor more information about the event or exhibit contact: \nTim Broekema\, Professor of Photojournalism \nWKU \n270-745-3005 \nOr \nBen Ridley \n270-792-7955

SUMMARY:David LaBelle: “Bridges and Angels: The Story of Ruth” lecture
DESCRIPTION:Baby Contest\, an image from his 50-year body of work | Photo by David LaBelle\n  \nThe School of Media’s Photojournalism department would like to invite you and your students to come meet photographer\, author\, teacher\, motivational speaker and lover of life David LaBelle as he presents lessons he has learned in his 50-year career at a lecture presentation on the campus of WKU. LaBelle will reveal his emotional connection to the purpose and meaning behind why he wanted to share with the world the death of his mother in his 350-page recently released novel. It is a story that you will not soon forget. \n\n\n\n“After many years or laboring with this story\,” LaBelle said in a press statement\, “my first novel is finally finished.  Though some suggested I write this as a memoir\, I resisted because I wanted to change history and give the story of my mother a different ending.   Since my mother’s body was never officially found or identified\, Bridges and Angels: The Story of Ruth is about what could have happened after her disappearance.  This 350-page book is fiction\, but much of it is nonfiction. I hope you find the story compelling.”\n\n\nA recent testimonial about LaBelle’s speaking engagement said\, “His passion\, coupled with a genuine love of the human spirit comes across so blatantly and encourages others to go out in search of their own creative yearnings. I can think of nothing more refreshing than a master of photography who reminds us of the true heart behind this kind of work.”\n\n\n\n\nLaBelle\, an internationally known photographer\, teacher\, author and motivational speaker\, grew up on a frog farm in Oak View\, California\, exploring the creeks and hills with two sisters and two brothers and numerous dogs. He began his photojournalism career as a weekend sports-shooter and lab man at the Ventura County Star-Free Press in California while still in high school. During his 50-year career\, David has worked for a mix of 20 different newspapers and magazines. He has also worked at four universities across the United States\, which includes several years here at Western Kentucky University. \n• A WKU “swipeable” event and is free and open to the public. \n• Free parking is available in the Chestnut St. South lot after 4:30 PM. \n

SUMMARY:Our World Burning Photo Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The Thomas Fire burns in the Los Padres National Forest\, near Ojai\, Calif.\, on Dec. 8\, 2017. A group of closely knit photojournalists find safety in numbers as they work together to document some of California’s largest and most dangerous fires. Photo by Marcus Yam/Los Angeles Times\n\n\nAs deadly wildfires globally increase in number and severity\, residents of fire-prone areas are finding themselves on the frontline of these historic and potential climate-changing events. This exhibition of over 50 images and a documentary film from recent California fire seasons\, come together in this body of work from ten critically-acclaimed photojournalists and explores the ramifications these fires can have and reveal the pain\, suffering and all-encompassing loss the victims endure.\n\n\n\nEXHIBITION\nThru November 22\nSchool of Media Gallery\n1665 Normal Street\, Bowling Green\, KY\nJody Richards Hall on the campus of WKU\n\n\n\n\n\nSchool of Media Gallery  Hours \nM-W 9am – 9pm \nTh–F 9am – 5pm \nSunday 3pm – 9pm \n\nFree parking after 4:30 M-F in the Chestnut St. Lot South / Closed Oct. 10\, 11 and 13 for fall break \n\n\n\n\n\n\nFEATURED PHOTOGRAPHERS\n\n\n\nPhotographer Justin Sullivan is seen here seeking a low angle while covering the Camp Fire of 2018. “Being with a group that is well trained and understands how to navigate these dangerous fires is so important to me\,” Sullivan says. “Being in a car with someone when you’re driving down roads that have fire on both sides with trees and power lines falling all around is so much better than trying to navigate it on your own.” Photo by Noah Berger.\n  \n\n \nFreelance photographer Noah Berger has spent 24 years covering the San Francisco Bay Area for editorial\, corporate and government clients. He works for national and international news outlets including the Associated Press\, Reuters\, San Francisco Chronicle and LA Times.

SUMMARY:Muhammad Ali: A Rare Glimpse Into the Life of The Champ
DESCRIPTION:  \nGallery Show highlights “The Greatest\,” Images of Muhammad Ali from Courier-Journal Photojournalists \n\nGALLERY HOURS\nMonday – Wednesday: 9:00 – 9:00\nThursday – Friday: 9:00 – 5:00\nSunday: 1:00 – 9:00\nJody Richards Hall\n1665 Normal Dr.\nWKU Campus\, Bowling Green\, KY\n  \nMore than a dozen staff photographers for the Courier Journal documented Muhammad Ali’s rise to fame and his later years fighting a different fight\, Parkinson’s Disease. Celebrated as one of the greatest boxers of all time\, Ali (born Cassius Clay)\, was also an activist and a philanthropist. But it was his heavyweight career that made him one of the most famous sports figures of the 20th century. Ali remains the only three-time champion of that division. \n  \nCassius Clay was born in Louisville in 1942\, and it would be his home for his entire life\, his funeral procession rivaled royalty. He was dedicated to Louisville and Louisville was dedicated to him. This gave the staff at the Courier Journal special access to the boxer during high times as well as later in life when his feeble body still resonated the spirit of The Greatest. Photojournalists like Bill Luster\, C. Thomas Hardin\, Larry Spitzer and Keith Williams were there to capture it all. \n  \n“No matter what stage he was on\, how big it was\, if there was someone from Louisville there\, he’d always recognize you\,” said former Courier Journal columnist Billy Reed. \n  \nOn March 11th Western Kentucky University and the School of Journalism & Broadcasting will open a tribute to the photographs and photographers of Muhammad Ali. Picture: Muhammad Ali\, a hard cover book will be celebrated in a 50-photo exhibit at Jody Richards Hall. \n  \nA reception at the JRH Gallery will open the exhibition at 4:30 pm CST\, and comments from PSG Book Publisher Warren Winter will commence at 5 pm. There will be a roundtable in the JRH Auditorium at 6 pm\, moderated by book editor Pat McDonogh featuring Courier Journal photojournalists Keith Williams\, C. Thomas Hardin\, Bill Luster and Sam Upshaw\, Jr. All will be available for a book signing of Picture: Muhammad Ali. A portion of the sales will go towards a scholarship fund for WKU Photojournalism students. \n  \nThe exhibition and roundtable are free and open to the public. Click here for more information about the book. \n  \nFor more information contact Tim Broekema at tim.broekema@wku.edu or call 270-745-3005.

SUMMARY:Mt. Sterling: Gateway to the Heart exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Warm up your cold days by planning a visit to an exhibition of photographs and video short stories that will warm your heart and allow you a few moments to slow down and take in the some of the simpler things in life. Mt. Sterling and surrounding Montgomery County sit nestled between Kentucky’s bluegrass meadows and Appalachian mountains. A lovely town surrounded by rolling farmland\, it is a place where people value their rich history and strive for a brighter future. With helping hands\, a welcoming heart and a strong sense of identity\, Mt. Sterling is the kind of place that feels like home. \nDuring one week in October of 2018\, a small army of visual journalists from across the country and around the globe descended on this community just outside of Lexington and documented her people and this place situated at the gateway to Eastern Kentucky. For more information about this event\, visit the Mountain Workshops web site. \nThe exhibition is located on the campus of Western Kentucky University in Jody Richards Hall and is open Monday – Friday 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. except for when the school is closed. \nThis exhibition is sponsored by The School of Journalism & Broadcasting’s Photojournalism department and Canon\, USA Imageprograf.
