SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Connoisseurs’ Legacy: The Collection of Nesta and Walter Spink
DESCRIPTION:The Connoisseurs’ Legacy: The Collection of Nesta and Walter Spink celebrates gifts to the museum from two accomplished scholars with eclectic interests\, a keen appreciation of form\, and a love of learning from objects. Nesta Spink\, curator at UMMA from 1967 to 1979\, is regarded as the preeminent authority on the lithographs of James McNeill Whistler. U-M professor emeritus Walter Spink is a world-renowned specialist on early Buddhist art and architecture in India. This selection of their gifts\, exhibited together for the first time\, provides insight into the minds of two connoisseurs with tastes that range far beyond their areas of specialization\; highlights include exquisite Whistler prints that are rarely on display and a rich representation of South Asian folk art. The Connoisseurs’ Legacy also honors the Spinks’ long relationship with the museum\, their roles as teachers of future scholars and curators\, and their commitment to public education.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Feelings through Fiction Therapy Group (dates & times flexible)
DESCRIPTION:The Summer 2016 group will include:\n\n1.5 hour sessions with snacks.\n\n8 weeks of sessions.\n\n9-13 year-old (girl and boy) participants.\n\nCost flexibility based on insurance benefits (self-pay is $40/session).\n\nScheduling flexibility since the day and time of the group sessions are determined by interest and the participant’s schedule.\n\nThroughout elementary\, middle\, and junior high school\, social interactions can become increasingly complicated and difficult to manage.

The Feelings through Fiction Summer 2016 Group uses a book club format to create a safe space for participants to discuss ideas and feelings common to kids their age. By the end of the eight week group\, participants should be better in tune with their feelings and how to manage them\, how to understand others and work through conflict\, and better able to deal with challenging social situations.\nRegistration is required.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Forensic Entomology: only as good as the data
DESCRIPTION:2016 Olin Sewall Pettingill All-Camp Lecture in Natural History\n\nForensic entomology is a branch of science that focuses on the trace evidence of insect and arthropod activity during legal investigations. It includes three branches\, the most famous of which is medico-criminal entomology\, or the study of insects that help to provide information useful in cases of human\, animal\, and livestock abuse\, neglect\, and questionable death. Three main models are employed for this work: maggot growth rate models\, accumulated degree-day models\, and ecological succession models. A skilled forensic entomologist will use all three models to assess a situation and then work backwards through time to help law enforcement and medical physicians piece together information. \n\nIn this lecture\, Dr. Sibyl Bucheli will review the history of forensic entomology\, the mathematical foundation of all the models\, and briefly discuss future direction in forensic entomology. She will also highlight some of the casework in which she has been involved including:\n\n* Case-making caterpillars and the human DNA clues they preserved\n* Insect succession on a human cadaver during the cooler months in Texas\n* The infamous Swearengen vs. the state of Texas case\n* Human lung myiasis \n\nPlease note: This lecture contains graphic images of human decomposition.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Performance:Hurray for the Riff Raff
DESCRIPTION:Hurray For The Riff Raff is Alynda Lee Segarra\, but in many ways it’s much more than that: it’s a young woman leaving her indelible stamp on the American folk tradition. If you’re listening to her new album\, \"Small Town Heroes\,\" odds are you’re part of the riff raff\, and these songs are for you. “It’s grown into this bigger idea of feeling like we really associate with the underdog\,” says Alynda. A 26-year-old of Puerto Rican descent whose slight frame belies her commanding voice\, she grew up in the Bronx\, where she developed an early appreciation for doo-wop and Motown from the neighborhood’s longtime residents. At 17 she hitched her way to the West Coast\, then roamed the south before ultimately settling in New Orleans. “The community I found in New Orleans was open and passionate. The young artists were really inspiring to me\,” she says. “Apathy wasn’t a part of that scene. And then the year after I first visited\, Katrina happened\, and I went back and saw the pain and hardship that all of the people who lived there had gone through. It made we want to straighten out my life and not wander so much. The city gave had given me an amazing gift with music\, and it made me want to settle there and be a part of it and help however I could.” Her songs belong to no particular time or place\, but rather to all of us—to the riff raff. Norton Records artists Daddy Long Legs open.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Abstraction: A Graphic Study
DESCRIPTION:Chicago-based artist Natasha Kohli uses abstract acrylic paintings to convey her messages of positivity and love by pouring that energy into each piece. As a self-taught artist\, Kohli is not bound to school taught rules but rather follows instinct and spontaneity. This also allows her to freely create her own processes. Moments of introspection and feelings of acceptance are what Kohli wishes to offer viewers of her work\, and these goals are inspired by her deep love of spirituality and Bikram yoga.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Concrete Ephemera: Street Art Captured
DESCRIPTION:David Zinn has been drawing on sidewalks for well over a decade\, using chalk and charcoal to create anamorphic 3D creatures which\, when viewed at a precise angle\, appear to exist in the real world. They often incorporate parts of the landscape and found objects\, such as cracks in concrete or leaves on the ground. He is inspired by a desire to place cheerful art underfoot in unexpected places and to embrace the temporary nature of all things. For this exhibit\, photographs of his street art installations will be on display. Zinn is a lifelong Michigander with a degree in creative writing from the U-M Residential College\, and he worked for many years as a children’s radio host on WCBN and Michigan Radio. Zinn will also give an artist demonstration alongside a musical performance by Magdalen Fossum in the University Hospital Courtyard on Thurs\, July 21\, 2016 from 12:00-1:00 pm.
