Hi everyone!
It’s that time of year again! AIA Narragansett Chapter and our co-host the Joukowsky Institute for Archaeology and the Ancient World will be having our annual Archaeology Day. This year, it is happening on Saturday, October 18th from 11-3. It is usually very well-attended and a fun way to interact with community members, families, and the public. But we need your help to make it happen!
There are two components for this event: First, an open dig day at the College Hill excavation site and second, an open house at Rhode Island Hall, Brown University with archaeology-themed interactive activities and display tables. In the past, these tables have included ceramics, numismatics, osteology, zooarchaeology, digital archaeology (GIS, photogrammetry, etc.), and more regional/thematic tables like Egyptian archaeology, Roman archaeology, medieval archaeology, etc.
If you are available and interested in helping out, please send an email to drartyfact@gmail.com to let Dr. Patricia A. Jubinska know.
Thank you!

All current graduate students and professionals who have completed their graduate degrees within the past year are invited to submit papers to the 43rd edition of Rutgers Art Review, a double-blind peer-reviewed journal of graduate research in art history.
Papers may address all topics, geographies, and historical periods within the history of art and architecture, visual and material culture, art theory and criticism, archaeology, cultural heritage and preservation, digital and public humanities, museum studies, film, and photography.
Rutgers Art Review is particularly interested in publishing research focused on underrepresented geographies and communities, utilizing interdisciplinary approaches, and submissions from disciplines beyond art history that center visual materials.
Rutgers Art Review also welcomes authors to submit papers that comment on the state of the field, are historiographical in nature, or projects that incorporate digital humanities resources and approaches. Digital humanities-focused papers should address important art historical questions with the help of digital tools. Of particular interest are digital projects that employ computational methods, mapping, networking, and/or 3D modeling to analyze and interpret art historical or archaeological materials.
To be considered for publication, submissions must present original contributions to existing scholarship and conform to our submission guidelines. Authors are encouraged to ask a faculty member to review their paper before submission. Additionally, RAR offers some publication assistance to accepted authors toward the cost of image rights.
For more information, including submission guidelines, please visit: https://rar.rutgers.edu
The American Research Center in Egypt invites you to a virtual lecture on October 25th, 2025 by Dr. Jennifer Miyuki Babcock! In this talk, Dr. Babcock will provide an overview of the significance of the hare in ancient Egyptian culture.
Despite being linked with one of the oldest ancient Egyptian deities, the hare does not feature prominently in ancient Egyptian art, with some exceptions. The discussion will focus on when we typically find representations of hares in ancient Egypt and examine the extent to which these images and objects reflect physiological and behavioral reality.
Dr. Jennifer Miyuki Babcock is a graduate of the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University and currently a faculty member in the art history departments at Pratt Institute and Fashion Institute of Technology, SUNY. She also advises graduate students in NYU’s Visual Arts Administration Program.
Her scholarship focuses on the ancient Egyptian depictions of animals, the role of animals in ancient Egyptian religion, and the modern reception and interpretation of ancient Egyptian culture.
