The theme of the evening will be “Beauty & Vulgarity: A Global Perspective.” Rowan College at Burlington County’s honor society, Phi Theta Kappa, selected the theme and will be asking the community to share their views on the art featured throughout the showcase by voting on whether a piece is vulgar or beautiful.

The research findings from this “Honors in Action” project will be submitted to the national Phi Theta Kappa.
