SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:Scientist Spotlight: MLK Jr. Day
DESCRIPTION:Only for the curious! The U-M Museum of Natural History is hosting a very special version of our popular Scientist Spotlight in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day 2025. Meet U-M scientists of color and learn about their research through interactive tabletop activities\, such as:\n* The Bouncing Drop Show: U-M Mechanical Engineering graduate student Biruk Teka Gidreta uses lotus leaves to demonstrate how “hydrophobic surfaces repel water\, and how we can use that in high-tech cooling applications.\n* A Scientist’s Guide to Reading Human Bones: U-M Anthropology graduate student Megan Savoy teaches visitors how to interpret burial sites. No actual human remains are included\, but visitors can try out their skills first-hand on several different “graves” featuring fake bones\, toy jewelry\, and more!
