For over five decades, the Kent Blossom Music Festival (KBMF) has been training the next generation of classical music artists in Kent, Ohio. KBMF, a partnership between The Cleveland Orchestra and Kent State University, stands as one of the top summer training institutes in the United States. Faculty, guests and Young Artists perform twenty or more concerts per season at the Glauser School of Music, Blossom Music Center and surrounding communities.
Miami String Quartet and Jerry Wong will be performing as part of KBMF’s Faculty Concerts Series. The Faculty Concerts Series is a ticketed subscription series. All faculty concerts take place at Ludwig Recital Hall.
Join us for a reception and curator-led tour as we open "Sparkle: The Style and Jewelry of Aileen Mehle,” in honor of the Kent State University Museum’s 40th anniversary season.
This exhibition pays tribute to Aileen Mehle, a friend of the museum founders and widely syndicated society columnist. The exhibition features evening dresses and jewelry from Mehle that will be displayed in the museum’s historic Higbee Gallery from July 18, 2025, through Aug. 23, 2026.
Mehle, who lived from 1918 to 2016, wrote under the pseudonym Suzy Knickerbocker and enjoyed a career spanning five decades – from the 1950s until her final column in 2005, which she wrote at the age of 87.
Mehle dressed in Pauline Trigère, Geoffrey Beene, Yves Saint Laurent and Givenchy while wearing jewelry by Cartier and Tiffany as well as bags by Judith Leiber and Bulgari. Among the approximately 20 dresses from the 1960s through the 1990s mounted in the exhibition is the beaded dress by Nilo de Paul that she wore to Truman Capote’s Black and White Ball in 1966 alongside a selection of her jewelry that range from vintage earrings from the 1930s to statement necklaces and bracelets from the 1980s.

Rock got no reason, rock got no rhyme… You better get me to school on time! Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “School of Rock–The Musical” is based on the hit movie. The tuner follows Dewey Finn, a failed, wannabe rock star who decides to earn an extra bit of cash by posing as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school. There he turns a class of straight–A pupils into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band. But can he get them to the Battle of the Bands without their parents and the school’s headmistress finding out?
