Join us for the 8th Annual Sustainable Raritan River Conference and Awards Ceremony, part of the Sustainable Raritan River Initiative, a joint effort of the Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy and the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences. In celebration of Rutgers 250th Anniversary, the conference will explore an agenda for Rutgers' stewardship of the Raritan River, basin, and bay. | Location: Douglass Student Center, Trayes Hall, 100 George Street, New Brunswick, NJ.

The Zimmerli Art Museum’s exhibition HereNow: Rutgers 250 celebrates the 250th anniversary of Rutgers—as well as the 50th birthday of the museum—by looking to the future. Rather than focus on Rutgers’ illustrious history, the initiative engages the entire university community with an opportunity to capture what education and campus life look like in the early 21st century at a major public university.

Beginning on November 10, 2015, as part of the Rutgers' community, you are invited to submit your images through the exhibit website. Images received by early January 2016 will be printed and hung as the premier images for this major exhibition at the Zimmerli. Thereafter, submitted images will be printed and installed in the museum at regular intervals, allowing the online and onsite exhibition to grow throughout the spring.

Following the close of the show, the 250 most interesting and compelling images will be compiled and published in a fine arts book with accompanying essays by distinguished authors and critics from Rutgers and beyond. The publication will document Rutgers, here and now, comprising a record of life at Rutgers at its 250th birthday through the eyes of its many communities. | Location: Submit your images online at herenow250.rutgers.edu.
