SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Other:Down the River with Elzada Clover
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the groundbreaking achievements of Elzada Clover. Dr. Elzada Clover contained multitudes\; she was a brazen botanist\, the first female University of Michigan botany professor\, the first female Matthaei Botanical Gardens curator\, the first scientist to document the flora of the remote Grand Canyon\, and along with her graduate assistant Lois Jotter\, they were first non-native woman to raft the entire length of the Colorado. This exhibit at Matthaei Botanical Gardens explores her remarkable journey and enduring contributions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Framing & Facilitating High Stakes Discussions: Post-Election Edition
DESCRIPTION:Do you plan to engage your students in classroom discussions about the 2024 election or current political issues? How can you design and facilitate conversations in the classroom that might involved difficult classroom dynamics\, controversy\, or big emotions? In this session for instructors\, participants will learn about a framework for designing high stakes discussions and will begin to create or refine a plan for their own course. Through individual work and peer feedback\, you'll identify discussion goals\, tone-setting strategies\, participation guidelines and activities that can help you facilitate these discussions well. Participants are encouraged to bring ideas for a specific lesson or topic that they want to create a plan for. \n\nThis session is offered as a part of the Promoting Democracy Teaching Series by CRLT & Ginsberg Center.\n\nOpen to UM faculty\, graduate students/GSIs\, and post-docs. If you are UM staff with instructional responsibilities who would like to register\, please reach out to teachdemocracy@umich.edu\n\nRegister Here: https://events.blackthorn.io/en/Hn1RKit7/g/2kTsKXAV0p/framing-and-facilitating-high-stakes-discussions-post-election-edition-5a1oHn4l1fl/overview
