Concert, Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers

Sunday December 7, 2025
3:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Join us for a performance by a cappella trio Zulal, who transform Armenia’s village melodies into modern arrangements that pay tribute to the music’s ancient roots. In their music, the singers of Zulal—which means “clear water”—seek to revere the traditional, while highlighting in their contemporary way the ideas of womanhood, displacement, and the longing for the homeland that the music inevitably conjures. The concert is included in a series of programming for the exhibition Topographies of Dissent: Armenian Art from the Dodge Collection.

Free and open to the public. Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers, 71 Hamilton Street, New Brunswick.
