Tuesday, December 01, 2026 @ 6:30pm
Mayo Performing Arts Center (MPAC) Morristown, NJ

Dav Pilkey’s Dog Man books explore multi-generational family and champion empathy and doing good.

The series explores universally positive messages including empathy, kindness, and striving to become a better version of one’s self, while it also tackles more complex themes including the loss of a loved one, shared custody, and forgiveness.  Meet Creator DAV PILKEY and step into an exclusive DOG MAN experience you won’t find anywhere else!

Neil deGrasse Tyson - Hope for Civilization

Friday, December 04, 2026 @ 7:30pm
NJPAC - Prudential Hall Newark, NJ

You think you understand humans. After all, you are one! But what do we really know about ourselves? In this intriguing talk, Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson examines human civilization through a scientific lens, offering a different outlook on big topics like war, politics, religion, race and gender. We’ll get curious about why we are the way we are — and what we can do about it. Your perspective might change when you view humanity under a microscope (or through a telescope). This presentation is inspired by Dr. Tyson’s book, Starry Messenger: Cosmic Perspectives on Civilization, one of many bestsellers written by the renowned astrophysicist.
