The first tipoff will be 8 p.m. Tuesday, March 2, with hometown favs the Newark Museum going up against the Brooklyn Museum. On Thursday, March 4, Milwaukee Art Museum will be pitted against the Columbus Museum of Art. The consolation round will be Tuesday, March 16 and the Final will be on March 23.

♦ In recognition of Women’s History Month and International Women’s Day, the Zimmerli Art Museum and Rutgers Global will present “Art After Hours: Women on View” 7 p.m. Tuesday, March 2. The online event will include a preview of the upcoming exhibit, “Communism Through the Lens: Everyday Life Captured by Women Photographers in the Dodge Collection,” led by Maria Garth, Dodge Fellow at the Zimmerli and Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Art History at Rutgers. Garth, who organized the upcoming exhibit, will discuss works by Māra Brašmane, Zenta Dzividzinska, Olga Ignatovich, Valentina Kulagina, Lialia Kuznetsova, Olga Lander, Ann Tenno and Natalia Tsekhomskaya. In addition, the program spotlights five women artists from other areas of the museum’s collections in honor of the annual #5WomenArtists campaign.
