SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. Modernist Glass from the Polish Past
DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor. Contact copernicus@umich.edu to schedule a viewing.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manga no Ryokou: The “Manga Map” and A Journey Through the Art of Depiction in Japanese Cartography
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit examines the intersection between art\, narrative\, and geography within Japanese cartography. It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shadow and Light : Solidarity and Connection with Iraqi Academics
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit incorporates a selection of work from the Shadow and Light project\, an initiative memorializing Iraqi academics assassinated between 2003-2013\, a timeframe which roughly parallels the US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq. \n\nParticipants from around the world — including Iraqis in diaspora — contributed photographs and personal statements responding to the loss of a particular Iraqi academic listed by the Spanish Campaign against the Occupation and for the Sovereignty of Iraq (La Campaña Estatal contra la Ocupación y por la Soberanía de Iraq / IraqSolidaridad 2005-2013). \n\nThe project emerges from a broader effort undertaken by Iraqis and allies to document the assault on Iraqi scholars\, intellectuals\, and cultural institutions which flared in the wake of the destruction and division wrought by the US-led invasion and occupation. Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Sentimental Archive: Remembering Nubia through Salvage Anthropology
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit showcases select photographs from The American University in Cairo’s Rare Books and Special Collections Library taken by the renowned Egyptian photographer Abd al-Fattah Eid as well as by the Cairo-born Swiss artist Margo Veillon.\n\nIn 1964\, the construction of the Aswan High Dam displaced Nubians from their ancestral villages along the banks of the Nile in Egypt. In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War
DESCRIPTION:*Presented in association with UMS*.\n\nIn Guardian Passage\, artists Irina Bondarenko and Katya Lisova employ the tools and imagery of traditional Ukrainian art forms to face down the existential threat brought about by Russia’s war on Ukraine. Bondarenko’s installation forms a causeway for visitors to encounter Ukrainian poetry and the art form of motanka dolls in a newly imagined configuration. Motanka are guardian symbols assembled from the clothes of deceased ancestors. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem or a song. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. Lisova’s series of tapestries explore the power of cultural memory to grow in times of war. Traditional embroidery explodes on the surface of photo collage\, where images of the past and present collide on a single surface. Like a lifeline\, red thread connects these projects\, weaving through clay and fabric\, bringing tradition to bear on new significances and the cultural will to survive. This exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance.”\n\nIrina Bondarenko is an emerging ceramic artist\, a native of Ukraine\, and a biostatistician at the University of Michigan. Irina has been with the University of Michigan Biostatistics Department for more than 20 years. and published over 50 peer-reviewed articles. Along with her career at the School of Public Health\, for the last 10 years Irina has been pursuing her interest in ceramics. Her work was featured in over a dozen national shows\, the 24th San Angelo National Ceramic Competition\, and the “Strictly Functional Pottery National Show” in 2021 and 2022\, and\, most recently\, the Regional Biennial Juried Sculpture Exhibition at Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum.\n\nArtist website: https://www.ibondceramics.com/\n\nKatya Lisova is an artist\, designer\, and art historian. Born in Kyiv\, she is a graduate of the Institute of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk (2009) and the National Academy of Cultural and Artistic Leaders (2018). Since 2019 she has been teaching at the Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk. Her work is in the field of artistic textiles and digital graphics. She is also the art director of the “Ukrainian Unofficial” research project\, which compiles archives of Ukrainian unofficial art of the second half of the twentieth century.\n\nArtist website: https://www.flickr.com/photos/196914550@N02/albums\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Digital Engrams
DESCRIPTION:The notion that our brains actually create memories first stored and then revisited has been contemplated since the time of Plato and Aristotle. These units of memory\, or engrams\, are poetic portals through which we time travel\, gaining hindsight and foresight\, more meaning and greater wisdom\, and hopes for a future less encumbered. Beyond reminiscences of technicolor sunsets\, perhaps memories are simply the brain's records of endless repetitions and familiar neural pathways.\n\nIn an era of iPhones\, Macbooks\, Instagram\, and Facebook\, everything that’s happened to us in recent memory is at our immediate disposal and made to look better than the original … every day of every year\, every meal of every trip\, every postcard destination. With constant 24/7 access to the newsreel of our own lives\, are we losing our innate ability to remember what matters in the process? \n\nIn Digital Engrams\, L.A. artist Gabriela Ruiz combines sound\, video\, light and sculpture to create unexpected environments that challenge our sensibilities. The installation considers how images function on and off the screen\, and how memories real and curated are the crux of personal and cultural identity. Who do we think we are in this life or the eternal life on the internet hereafter? \n\nRuiz’s spatial inquiries grapple with the potential erasure of the rituals of memorialization and the richness of material culture so important in her own Latinx heritage and to her sense of self.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, IH Arts Curator\n\nAbout the artist:\nGabriela Ruiz is a self-taught artist whose practice blends diverse forms of expression and media\, including sculpture\, video\, painting\, and apparel design. Her sculptures incorporate found objects and industrial materials\, such as thrift store furniture and insulation foam. Strongly influenced by growing up in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley to immigrant parents from Mexico\, Ruiz’s practice is a reflection of the DIY work ethic she was raised under\, the vibrancy of Mexican cultural and artistic traditions\, and her exposure to subculture and fantasy at a young age as a means to escape the realities of daily life.\n\nOne of L.A.’s rising young talents\, she presented her solo show Stream at the Palm Springs Art Museum in 2022\, part of the museum's Outburst project.\n\n*Gabriela Ruiz is the Jean Yokes Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities. This exhibition is part of LSA's fall 2023 Art & Resistance theme semester.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Holding Places Exhibition by Satchel Lee
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours: Mon-Fri\, 9 am-5 pm or by appointment: serrag@med.umich.edu\nBorn and raised in New York City\, Satchel Lee is a multi-media artist whose work can best be described as portraiture. Through collaborations with her immediate community\, and also using herself as a subject\, Lee draws inspiration from the quotidian\, creating offbeat images that aim to preserve this moment in time\, (re) examine memories (especially those clouded by confusion) all the while asking questions around identity and existence.\n\nLee holds a BFA from the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She is currently pursuing her MFA in Photography at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.\n\nIn Lee’s photographic exploration\, she investigates the profound connection between places and structures and the echoes of trauma that inhabit them. “Holding Places” is an exhibition that immerses viewers into a visual narrative\, inviting them to witness the power of space as holders and conduits for personal memory.\n\nBy reconstructing these places by hand in model scale and rendering them not as they were\, but how she experienced them\, she is able to navigate intimate details and hidden narratives that exist within them. The process of crafting these miniatures becomes a meditative contemplation\, giving Lee time to sit and reflect on these past events.\n\nThrough Lee’s lens\, they capture the visual manifestations of the ghosts of the past. The photographs offer glimpses into spaces where anguish\, conflict and distress have left their imprints\, sometimes visible\, sometimes buried beneath layers of time (and self preservation).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Illustrating the Renaissance Book: From Illumination to Woodcut
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a selection of manuscripts and early printed books from the 15th to the 17th centuries that were illustrated with illuminations and woodcuts. Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sarah Buckius: !!!techn010ffspring!!!
DESCRIPTION:Come explore the intricate and interlocking world of Sarah Buckius’ “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” where feminist art meets science and the history of invention. On view at Lane Hall as part of U-M Arts Initiative’s themed semester on Arts & Resistance\, “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” critiques the patriarchal paradigms of the STEM field by highlighting the history of women inventors. This exhibition brings conceptual invention in fine art and performance to the disciplines of information technology\, robotics\, and engineering. Buckius creates “technoffsprings”: complex machines that weave together the history of inventions related to the gendered labor of women\, especially regarding women’s social roles as caregivers and subjects of care themselves. \nTrained as an engineer and an artist\, Buckius’ machines are intentionally complex\, layered\, and illogical or absurdly logical. In the nature of women’s caregiving\, they teeter between order and chaos. Her “digital tinkerings” tell epic tales of motherhood\, technology\, female bodies\, and commerce—both personal and externalized through women’s inventions and early forays that bridged caregiving and commerce. Buckius' work proposes improvisation as a form of absurdist resistance to\, and alternative to\, patriarchal\, capitalist\, production-based\, and seemingly rational\, useful\, logical systems. \n“!!!techn010ffspring!!!” is open for viewing M-F\, 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\nThis  project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan and co-sponsored by U-M’s Department of Women’s and Gender Studies and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender with support from the Santa Cruz County Arts Council.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CMENAS Fall 2023 Colloquium Series Lecture: The Post-spectacle City: The Politics of Space\, Nation\, and Multispecies Belonging After Dubai Expo 2020 and the 2022 Qatar World Cup
DESCRIPTION:This paper takes as its starting point Gulf cities as multispecies places where human-nonhuman encounters and forms of kinship inform larger questions of urban belonging\, racialization\, and economic precarity. It is an exploratory paper based on initial observations from multispecies ethnographic research I have recently started conducting in the UAE and within online animal welfare groups for the Gulf region. I use the cases of Dubai Expo 2020 and Qatar’s 2022 World Cup to consider how large-scale urban development and shifting state policies have impacted both human and nonhuman residents\, as well as the relationships between them. These spectacular events and the planning around them have particularly affected already-precarious populations like low-wage immigrants from Asia and Africa and stray cats and dogs. The entangled precarities between species are made visible through new urban geographies\, state rhetorics of multiculturalism and tolerance\, the effects of COVID-19\, and policies aimed at producing sustainable cities and environmentally conscious citizens.\n   \n   Neha Vora is a Professor of Anthropology in the Department of International Studies at the American University of Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates. Her research and teaching interests include diasporas and migration\, citizenship\, globalized higher education\, gender\, liberalism\, political economy\, and human-nonhuman encounters\, primarily in the Arabian Peninsula region. She is the author of *Impossible Citizens: Dubai’s Indian Diaspora *(Duke University Press\, 2013) and *Teach for Arabia: American Universities\, Liberalism\, and Transnational Qatar *(Stanford University Press\, 2018). She has also published a co-authored book with Ahmed Kanna and Amelie Le Renard\, *Beyond Exception: New Interpretations of the Arabian Peninsula *(Cornell University Press\, 2020). Her current research project is examining animal care work in the Gulf and the shifting precarities for both immigrants and the unhoused animals they care for within post-Covid economic conditions and emergent state sustainability discourses and policies.\n   \n   This event is part of the CMENAS Fall Colloquium 2023: “The MENA world after a MENA World Cup” 555 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.\n   \n   Colloquium questions: cmenas@umich.edu\n   \n   This series is funded in part by the Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies (CMENAS) U.S. Department of Education Title VI National Resource Center (NRC) grant.\n   \n   To register\, go to https://myumi.ch/8eA8n.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Global South Gender and Sexuality Studies Collective Series
DESCRIPTION:As a part of the Global South Gender and Sexuality Studies Collective Series\, Professor Raevin Jimenez (UMich Department of History) will be giving a talk.\n\nTitle: Gendered Mutualism in Southeast Africa: Personhood and Society in Deep-time Historical Perspective\n\nAbstract: This talk tells the story of the earliest Nguni-speakers - ancestors of Zulu and Xhosa speech communities - as they made their way out of the South African Highveld in the ninth century and across southeasternmost Africa over the next millennium. As they moved\, they responded to a crisis in environment and society that left them disconnected from their ancestors and former neighbors\, seeking new identities and relationships among Khoisan foragers. In a new multicultural space\, increasingly diverse Nguni-speaking communities used rites of passage\, gendered institutions\, identities\, and relationships to forge concepts and practices of morality. Gendered morality established ties between dispersed populations and among people without shared ancestry that in turn shaped ideas about power and belonging. In response to this history\, I present the framework of gendered mutualism\, in which gender emerged through unique speech patterns and social bonds neither universally available nor fully embodied.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Respond/Resist/Rethink
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts & Resistance and the U‑M Arts Initiative. The 2023 Respond/Resist/Rethink exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U‑M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn).\n\nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one’s personal politics\, an artwork’s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. Respond/​Resist/​Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.\n\nNote: The Duderstadt Center will close slightly earlier\, on Dec 1.\nDuderstadt Center Gallery Hours: Noon-6pm Tues-Fri\, Noon-6pm Sunday

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:International Students Career Series: How to Build Your Network
DESCRIPTION:\"You can’t start networking unless you know where to begin! As an international student\, it can be intimidating when thinking about the idea of having to interact with people in the U.S. That’s totally okay because we got you covered! This workshop will give you the tools to identify and connect with contacts in addition to conducting informational interviews - opportunities that will help you expand your knowledge of what a career or company is like by learning from an employee's daily activities. Remember: Networking is about building relationships. These meetings can occur without the pressure so often present in a typical job interview but many times lead to opportunities down the road.\n\nThis session is an interactive workshop\, so you are expected to prepare by carefully reviewing our networking website to learn the basics: Review Networking Resources:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PHpx31Amwc&t=2s\nhttps://careercenter.umich.edu/article/networking-resources\n\n\"

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ISRMT seminar: Geometry of half-space log-gamma polymers
DESCRIPTION:The half-space directed polymer is a variant of directed polymer that studies how polymers behave in the presence of an attractive wall. Depending on the strength of the boundary\, the polymers are expected to have two distinct phases: the bound phase and the unbound phase. In this talk\, I will focus on the half-space polymer model with log-gamma weights which makes the model integrable. I will describe our results in the unbound phase where we obtain KPZ exponents and in the bound phase where we obtain stochastic boundedness of the endpoint. Our proof proceeds by constructing the half-space log-gamma line ensemble which has a novel feature of attraction/repulsion at the boundaries. Based on two joint works: one with Guillaume Barraquand and Ivan Corwin\, and one with Weitao Zhu.

DESCRIPTION:HYBRID SEMINAR:\nIn-person: BSRB\, ABC seminar rooms\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_5NWlftG_TZGoYjig93GN4w\n\nAbstract: This talk will focus on long-range signaling in CRISPR-Cas9\, a cutting-edge genome editing tool. The transformative potential of Cas9 as a precision therapeutic cannot be realized without an understanding of its interdomain communication and the mitigation of deleterious off-target cleavage\, which is being characterized at the atomic level in the group. A series of vignettes will highlight NMR studies of Cas9 through a “divide-and-conquer” approach using engineered protein constructs and first demonstrate that multi-timescale motions in the catalytic nuclease of Cas9 propagates chemical information that regulates cleavage of double-stranded DNA. The talk will also highlight specificity-enhancing mutations in Cas9 that rewire its regulatory mechanism and RNA interactions at the molecular level to mitigate off-target DNA cleavage. Critical energetics of the mechanism will be discussed\, including the importance of metal ions and the protonation state of the catalytic histidine\, studied via catalytic pocket mutations that limit conformational sampling of the Cas9 active state. Lastly\, insight from canonical Cas9s will be expanded to highly stable thermophiles that are more promising for genome engineering and offer tunable high-temperature DNA editing and RNA binding. The underlying chemistry and atomic level dynamics of Cas9 will be linked to its nucleic acid interactions and biological outcomes\, hopefully opening new avenues for intuitive manipulation of its function and precision therapeutic properties.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Taxes and Telework: The Impacts of State Income
DESCRIPTION:This paper studies the interstate effects of decentralized taxation and spending when individuals can work from home (WFH)\, a possibility that decouples a state’s population and employment levels. Our main findings show that a shift from a non-WFH economy to WFH reduces employment and raises the wage in high-tax states\, with larger effects under source taxation. Once WHF is established\, an increase in a state’s tax rate either reduces employ- ment further while raising the wage (source taxation) or leaves the labor market unaffected (residence taxation). We show that the residence-taxation equilibrium is efficient.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GLNT: Rational torsion in modular Jacobians
DESCRIPTION:For a prime number N\, Ogg's conjecture states that the torsion in the Jacobian of the modular curve X_0(N) is generated by the cusps. Mazur proved Ogg's conjecture as one of the main theorems in his \"Eisenstein ideal\" paper. I'll talk about a generalization of Ogg's conjecture for squarefree N and a proof using the Eisenstein ideal. This is joint work with Ken Ribet.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Commutative Algebra Seminar: Local cohomology modules and their socle degrees of certain determinantal thickening
DESCRIPTION:The local cohomology modules of thickening of schemes have been studied for decades\, and the recent development of representation theory techniques in commutative algebra provides us with powerful tools to understand the structures of the local cohomology and Ext modules of the determinantal thickening. In the case of determinantal thickening of maximal minors and sub-maximal Pfaffians\, we employ the aforementioned techniques along with the classification of simple D-modules on spaces of matrices by Raicu\, Weyman and Witt to study the module structures of the corresponding Ext modules\, thereby answering a question about socle degrees of local cohomology modules raised by Zhang. This is joint work with Mike Perlman.

SUMMARY:Ceremony / Service:Trans Day of Remembrance Banquet
DESCRIPTION:Spectrum Center will be hosting a Trans Day of Remembrance banquet\, an annual memorial observance honoring the transgender people whose lives were lost this past year due to acts of anti-trans violence.  We will gather in the Pendleton Ballroom at 6pm and join with our other U-M campus partners and students as we share a meal\, read the names of those we have lost\, and hear words and thoughts from trans speakers.  The event will conclude with a quilt-making activity\, where we will draw images and write messages of love\, support\, and affirmation to our trans family in an act of connection and solidarity. This event will center the transgender and non-binary community\, but is open to all those associated with the U-M community.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Whiskey Charmers
DESCRIPTION:Album release show!\n\nThe Whiskey Charmers are a Detroit-based band led by Carrie Shepard and Lawrence Daversa. Fans have often compared their sound to riding through the desert with the top down\, or the feeling of being in some lonesome smoky bar off the side of an abandoned highway\, or music from a Spaghetti Western. William P. Davis (Former Deputy Director of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville) says of the band\, “I’ve heard a lot of good musicians. The Whiskey Charmers remind me of no one—and\, to me\, that is one of the best compliments an act can receive.” Many fans have become familiar with The Whiskey Charmers music through the video game Detroit: Become Human\, a cinematic neo-noir thriller game that has sold more than five million copies worldwide. The Whiskey Charmers will be releasing their fifth full length album in November 2023.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4288/4289 for more detail.
