About the Marie Rader Presenting Series
The Marie Rader Presenting Series (MRPS) at Rowan University is a curated performing arts series that uplifts the region's cultural landscape. Focused on community engagement, artistic integrity, and inclusion, MRPS provides public offerings that reflect the innovation and quality consistent with Rowan's overall standards of high achievement and transformation, while providing unprecedented access for youth, families, and seniors.
Because of the Marie Rader Series, you don't have to travel to New York or Philadelphia to see some of the most influential leaders in dance, music, theatre and beyond. This series is also designed to introduce you to artists you wouldn't otherwise encounter-- artists who reflect not only the future of performing arts, but who help us envision a better world, right now, right here in South Jersey.
The Marie Rader is made possible in part through generous support from the Henry M. Rowan Family Foundation via the Marie Rader Memorial Fund and through funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts, a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts.
If you enjoy a Marie Rader experience, please support the series by spreading the word, and if you have the means, we welcome your financial support as well.
THANK YOU.
