Dàimh (the word means \"kinship\" in Scots Gaelic and is pronounced \"dive\") is based in Lochaber in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland\; an area as much renowned for its scenic beauty as for its rich musical and cultural heritage. A long‐established favorite at folk festivals in Scotland and Ireland and across Europe\, Dàimh took home Scots Trad Band of the Year honors at the Scots Traditional Music Awards\, Daimh are also regulars on BBC television. Recent lineup changes have seen the introduction of Murdo “Yogi” Cameron on mandola and accordion\, adding unique instrumental flavors to an already phenomenal instrumental arsenal of bagpipes\, fiddle\, mandolin and guitar. From pyrotechnic jigs and reels to achingly poignant ballads\, Dàimh runs the full expressive gamut of folk music at its best\, and is justly renowned for their thrilling live shows.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4468/4469 for more detail.

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.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M.

Powerful new systems like Generative AI unlocks enormous potential to accelerate research\, “mass produce” human knowledge\, and enable humans to address previously unfathomable scientific questions and engineering challenges. Meanwhile\, such potential is still largely speculative and initial successes are still limited in scope. Massive adoption of AI in science and engineering will be possible only after addressing numerous issues\, and building infrastructure and capacity. \n\nIn this symposium\, we bring together leading thinkers and researchers around the country to share their vision and work\, in four themes. \n\n1) Speeding Up Research – using AI to automate and accelerate research\, such as experimental design optimization and accelerating the workflow.\n\n2) The Nature of Creativity in Research – the role of the AI Researcher and the new role of the Human Researcher.\n\n3) Trusting the AI Researcher – Upholding research rigor in AI-driven research and ensuring the validation of AI-driven discoveries\, and aligning AI-driven discoveries with human values.\n\n4) Expanding the Limit of the Human Researcher– using AI to ask previously unfathomable questions in a number of research fields.\n\nThe intended audience are researchers\, trainees and the general public to this event regardless of the specific fields of their research and the focus of their intellectual pursuit.\n\nFor more information on sessions and speakers\, please visit our event page: https://midas.umich.edu/ai-se-annual-symposium/ UID:115761-21835473@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/115761 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Academic Technology At Michigan,Ai In Science And Engineering,Applications,Artificial Intelligence,computer science,data,Data Science,Discussion,Electrical And Computer Engineering,Electrical Engineering and Computer Science,Engineering,Ethics,Graduate,Graduate and Professional Students,Information and Technology,Interdisciplinary,Postdoctoral Research Fellows,Research,Science,Scientific Computing,Technology LOCATION:Rackham Graduate School (Horace H.) - Amphitheatre (4th Floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240229T170957 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240318T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240318T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exile and the Mentor-student Relationship: A Force for Resistance and Decolonization DESCRIPTION:This small exhibit features work in reproduction by Iraqi artists Hanaa Malallah and Mohammed Karim\, as well as an original painting by Karim. Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994).

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan. He currently serves on faculty at College for Creative Studies UID:116532-21837340@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116532 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240401T092243 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240318T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240318T163000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:RC Visual Arts Faculty Show DESCRIPTION:March 4 - April 4\, 2024\n\n--\n\nThe public is invited to a closing reception for the artists on April 4th at 5:00 pm.\n--\nAbout the Artists\nMegan Gizzi (Lecturer I\, Ceramics) \n\nToby Millman (Lecturer\, Drawing and Printmaking) is a multidisciplinary artist living in Hamtramck\, working with printmaking\, photography\, collage\, narrative and book arts.

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

However\, research efforts to address the health inequities these communities face often fail to ensure transgender women of color have meaningful leadership roles throughout the entire research process. The “Love Her Collective” is a community-academic partnership between Trans Sistas of Color Project-Detroit (TSoCP) and researchers at the University of Michigan School of Public Health formed around the needs\, interests\, and priorities of transgender women of color in Detroit. Over the past 6 years\, the Love Her Collective has conducted several projects to identify and address social determinants of HIV inequities in this community. This presentation will describe community-led projects addressing violence and trauma\, legal barriers to legal gender affirmation\, and economic vulnerability. It will focus on the ethics and benefits surrounding community leadership in health equity research and include concrete recommendations for population health researchers working with populations frequently excluded and marginalized by academic research.\n\nKristi E. Gamarel (she/her) is an Associate Professor and Associate Chair of Department of Health Behavior and Health Education at the University of Michigan School of Public Health. She has a background in social and personality psychology with additional training in health psychology and public health.

However\, at present\, most\nspacecraft control laws can only autonomously accomplish very simple tasks using their onboard computers. More complex tasks are instead\naccomplished by pre-computing the spacecraft motions on the ground\, checking the results by hand\, and then uplinking these instructions to the\nspacecraft to follow. As humans venture further into the Solar System and launch an ever-increasing number of Earth-orbiting spacecraft each year\,\nthere is an interest in developing control laws that perform more complex tasks with less ground-based supervision. At the same time\, any such\ncontrol law must be computationally lightweight and provably verifiable.

While several evolutionary genetic hypotheses have been proposed\, most lack strong empirical evidence. I will discuss recent UK Biobank-based genomic studies that shed light on this long-standing “Darwinian paradox.\"\n\nGroup Dynamics Seminar Series\nThe Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent seminars have included discussions in “Law and Psychology\,” “Racism and Discrimination\,” “Social Media\,” and “New Directions in Social Psychology.”\n\nThe Winter 2024 Series is co-sponsored by the Evolution and Human Adaptation Program (EHAP) at the University of Michigan.\n\nEvolution and Human Behavior\n\nWhat can wasps teach us about the evolution of animal minds? How does indirect reciprocity shape cooperation in human groups? Why are people vulnerable to obesity– especially in marginalized groups? This seminar series will address these questions\, and more\, from the perspective of evolutionary theory. The approach will draw on behavioral ecology\, which views adaptive behavior as responsive to ecological variation. The speakers\, from anthropology and other fields\, are known for the depth of their long-term field studies in Kenya\, Mali\, Bangladesh\, the United States\, Dominica\, Bolivia\, the Pacific Islands\, and other locales. \n\nRCGD/EHAP Seminars will be held at ISR Thompson 1430. Where permitted by speakers\, events will be recorded. The related class meets at 1 at 1450.

This is no accident. The Roman empire was an ‘empire of cities’. In the western Mediterranean\, where there were relatively few\, the Romans planted an enormous number of new ones. The East\, on the other hand\, was already densely populated with cities. Here the ancient settlements of the Levant flourished under Roman rule\, growing steadily in size and prosperity.\n\nThese cities gradually took on a new appearance too\, as they each acquired a selection of the grand appurtenances and amenities of a Roman metropolis or model city: aqueducts\, vaulted bath buildings\, stone theaters\, covered markets\, colonnaded streets\, monumental frontal temple buildings. In recent years these cities have attracted a fair amount of attention from archaeologists and historians\; but they generally remain outside our accepted narratives of the evolving urban cultures of the Roman world.\n\nThe Jerome Thomas Spencer Lecture series revisits these long-established centers of the Roman Near East\, and the various ancient peoples who inhabited them. The lectures will seek to trace\, through the archaeology and historical sources\, the transformation of these cities\, from the late first century BCE until Late Antiquity and even into the Early Islamic period\; and to describe the ways in which there emerged—here in the monumental spaces of these Levantine communities—a range of new and distinctive kinds of ‘urbanity’.\n\nUrban development in the Roman period prompted a welter of political\, social\, and religious changes — all of which resulted in a number of different ‘regimes of urban living’\, distinctive to the region. The lectures will take us through a series of extremely varied – but recognizable – urban landscapes: the Decapolis\, the Limestone Massif and the Tetrapolis\; the settlements along the Mediterranean coast\; and places deep inland such as Palmyra in the Syrian Desert and the Hauran. But by the end of the journey\, the lectures shall have situated these cities as physical manifestations of a local or regional experiment in ‘urban self-fashioning’ — as the peoples of the region\, collectively and individually\, availed themselves of the alluring opportunities of the Roman peace.\n\nRubina Raja is a Professor of Classical Archaeology and Art at Aarhus University\, Denmark\, and Centre director of the Danish National Research Foundation’s Centre of Excellence for Urban Network Evolutions at Aarhus University\, Denmark.\n\nProfessor Raja studied classical archaeology at Oxford (M.St. and D.Phil) after undergraduate studies at the University of Copenhagen and Università di Roma\, La Sapienza\, Italy\, and has worked during her studies at the Danish Ministry of Culture. After her DPhil\, she held post-docs in Hamburg\, Germany\, and Aarhus\, Denmark. She was an associate professor at Aarhus University between 2009 and 2012\, and in 2012\, she was appointed professor with special responsibilities. In 2015\, she took up the professorial chair of Classical Art and Archaeology at Aarhus University as the first female professor in the field in Denmark ever. There\, she has also since 2015 directed the Danish National Research Foundation’s Centre of Excellence for Urban Network Evolutions. Raja has published widely on Greco-Roman portraiture\, ancient religion\, and its monuments\, urban development from the Hellenistic to the Medieval periods in the Eastern Mediterranean\, cultural heritage in conflict zones\, and legacy data. She is known for her groundbreaking work on the Syrian oasis city Palmyra and her high-impact collaborative archaeological fieldwork in Jerash and Rome. She has received numerous international research awards and honors\, including the Humboldt Foundation’s Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel Prize\, Queen Margrethe IIs Rome Prize\, the Elite Research Prize\, and the Silver Medal for outstanding research in the humanities and social sciences awarded by the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters\, where she has been a member since 2015. She holds several leadership and management degrees from INSEAD\, Paris\, and Copenhagen Business School\, among other institutions. She has mentored junior and senior scholars in career development programs\, and is the author of numerous outreach features on the importance of the humanities broadly in today’s rapidly changing world – underlining in which ways Classics remain relevant in our day and age. In 2023\, she was a visiting fellow at All Souls College at her Alma Mater institution\, the University of Oxford.\n\nRaja is an experienced field archaeologist\, having headed projects in the Middle East and Italy since 2011. Her research focuses on urban and societal developments as well as networks from the Hellenistic to the medieval periods\, iconography\, and religion in Antiquity\, with a focus on the Eastern Mediterranean and Rome. She has pioneered research intersecting archaeology and natural sciences\, bringing high-definition studies of the past to the forefront.

Italy: Strategies for De-Demonizing Fascism DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, far-right parties have gained ground in most national parliaments. This is the case in Italy\, where the extreme right (Fratelli d'Italia\, the Lega\, and Forza Italia) won the general election in September 2022. Should we fear a return to fascism?\n \n Loriga will first outline two historical key features within the Italian political context: on one hand\, the constitutional consensus and the antifascist paradigm established at the end of the Second World War\; on the other\, the perdurance of fascism. She will then analyze how certain fascist terminologies and visions have been re-mobilized in the public debate. More specifically\, she will expose three strategies used to disguise fascism in Italy (by claiming the fascist legacy but denying that it is fascism): first\, the representation of fascism as an operetta dictatorship\; second\, anti-antifascism\; and third\, the game of hide-and-seek with fascism.\n \n Sabina Loriga is professor of history at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales in Paris. She is editor of the journal *Passés Futurs* and chair of the festival of social sciences Allez Savoir\, “Voyage en utopies.” Her research focuses on the relationships between history and biography\, the construction of historical time\, and public uses of the past. Her publications include: *Une histoire inquiète. Les historiens et le tournant linguistique* (avec J. Revel)\, Éditions Seuil-Gallimard\, 2022\; *Le petit x.

In the 1930s Zariski studied the question of whether the moduli space of plane curves of fixed degree with a certain set of prescribed singularities is connected. He famously showed that plane sextic curves with six cusps and no other singularities is disconnected: the two components corresponding to whether the cusps or not the cusps are in general position or lie on a conic. To prove this\, Zariski developed and used tools around fundamental groups and branched coverings\, showing that purely topological data can be used to answer geometric questions: the deformability of six cuspidal sextics one to the other. Recently\, Milnor asked an analogous question in the realm of rational maps: Is the moduli space of quadratic rational maps of a fixed degree and a prescribed orbit portrait for one of the critical points connected? This problem is still wide open. In this talk we will describe some partial results with a particular focus on the use of topological techniques a la Zariski in this context.

Yet\, when incorporated into protein scaffolds\, this limited set of metal ions carry out innumerable cellular functions and execute essential biochemical transformations such as photochemical H2O oxidation\, O2 or CO2 reduction\, and N2 fixation\, highlighting the outsized importance of metalloproteins in biology. Elucidating the intricate interplay between metal ions and protein structures has been the focus of extensive structural and mechanistic scrutiny over the last several decades. As a result\, we have gained a reasonably detailed understanding of how metal ions shape protein structures and how protein structures in turn influence metal reactivity. By contrast\, translating this knowledge into an ability to construct functional metalloproteins from scratch remains a great challenge.\n\nMotivated by a desire to (a) build new bioinorganic functions beyond what nature has invented and (b) retrace the routes for the emergence of bioinorganic complexity during evolution\, we have developed a design approach in which folded proteins are used as synthons for building supramolecular complexes through metal-mediated self-assembly. The interfaces in the resulting protein superstructures are subsequently tailored with covalent\, non-covalent or additional metal-coordination interactions for stabilization and incorporation of new functionalities. This strategy has not only enabled the construction of functional metalloproteins and protein-based materials with unusual properties\, but also led to the discovery of fundamental design principles that govern the metal-protein interplay. This presentation will focus on a few examples from our laboratory.

In this theory\, classical probability spaces are replaced by pairs (𝒜\,𝜏)\, where 𝒜 is an (operator) algebra and 𝜏 : 𝒜 → ℂ is a certain kind of linear functional. In such a pair\, 𝒜 and 𝜏 are conceptualized as the space of ``noncommutative random variables'' and the ``expectation'' functional on 𝒜\, respectively. The analogy with classical probability goes much further\; indeed\, there are notions of distribution\, independence\, L^p-spaces\, conditional expectation\, and more. My talk will focus on my recent joint work with David Jekel and Todd Kemp on developing a noncommutative theory of stochastic calculus. I shall frame the discussion around some joint work in progress with Guillaume Cébron and Nicolas Gilliers: applications of the theory to the characterization of large-N limits of solutions to N×N matrix stochastic differential equations.

Our recent findings let us to formulate a conceptually new model of global transcription-driven repair (TDR)\, in which RNA polymerase serves as the indispensable genome-wide DNA damage sensor and\nalso delivery vehicle and platform for the assembly of specialized repair complexes in living cells. The model provides a framework for better understanding genotoxic stress response and genome instability in bacteria and beyond.\n\nKeywords: DNA repair\, transcription elongation\, RNA polymerase\, ppGpp\, NER\, BER\, RER UID:109691-21822705@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/109691 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences LOCATION:Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building - ABC Seminar Rooms CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240312T145540 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240318T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240318T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker Series. Arts of closure: settler cosmotechnics and dam removal on the Upper Mississippi River DESCRIPTION:How do we take apart things deemed harmful? In 2018 the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began a disposition study for three locks and dams in the only gorge in the Mississippi River\, located in Minneapolis-St. Paul. The study has gathered diverse actors and communities\, including vocal advocates for their partial or complete removal\, echoing calls elsewhere for the dismantling of ruinous infrastructures. While dam removal advocates imagine a river set free\, this paper turns to a precursor to the dams\, first proposed in 1852\, ten years before the Dakota uprising\, to develop the idea of a “settler cosmotechnics” that imagined the Mississippi as a technical and infrastructural object\, effacing Dakota cosmologies and territorialities as it displaced the river into the territorial and economic logics of the expanding settler state. \n\nBruce Braun is Professor of Geography in the Department of Geography\, Environment and Society (GES) at the University of Minnesota. He is a specialist in political ecology\, infrastructural politics\, and settler environmentalisms. He is currently working on two projects: “Learning from Ada’itsx\,” with Cliff Atleo and Michael Simpson\, which explores the shifting territorialities\, ecologies\, and technopolitics of forestry on Indigenous lands in British Columbia\, Canada\, and “Dismantlings: the Art and Politics of Taking Things Apart\,” which delves into the concrete practices and contentious politics of dismantling infrastructures deemed harmful or obsolete. He is the author of numerous books and articles\, most recently Settling the Boom: Sites and Subjects of Bakken Oil (Minnesota\, 2023).

We can write a generating function for Dyck paths\, using q to keep track of the area statistic\, and t to keep track of the bounce statistic. Amazingly\, while this function is symmetric in q and t\, a bijection on Dyck paths that swaps area and bounce continues to elude even the most tenacious combinatistas. Recent work of Guoce Xin and Yingrui Zhang suggests promising results from studying a generalization of Dyck paths. Drawing inspiration from this work\, we will discuss how to view Dyck paths as integer points of cones\, hoping that the geometric perspective will shed new light on this problem. This is joint work with Matthias Beck\, Mitsuki Hanada\, Max Hlavacek\, John Lentfer\, and Andrés Vindas Meléndez.

There is a difficulty even in the formulation of the problem\, because the 'natural' definition of cycles associated with degenerate coefficients yields cycles in the wrong degree\, an issue that gets rather more severe when one tries to work over the integral model. I'll explain how the theory of virtual fundamental classes for certain derived complete intersection maps gives a systematic fix for this issue\, and how recent developments in integral p-adic Hodge theory (joint w. Mathew and Gardner) help to construct such maps.

An homage to the calendar––and really\, time itself––this collection of songs is a testament to the band’s enduring creativity and unwavering commitment to their craft. During the pandemic\, Nerissa and Katryna Nields took a daily walk with their beloved dogs\, Greta and Hudson. The destination was a nearby lake\, where Katryna would take a daily photo. Inspired by the ever-shifting seasons\, they came to realize that each of Nerissa’s new songs could be intimately connected to a particular time of year\, forming a musical cycle. Listeners of any age who haven't yet encountered the Nields will be amazed by the vocal chemistry of these two sisters who have been singing together almost from the cradle\, by the range of their songwriting ideas\, and by their uncategorizable stylistic turns.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4534/4535 for more detail.

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.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting.

Powerful new systems like Generative AI unlocks enormous potential to accelerate research\, “mass produce” human knowledge\, and enable humans to address previously unfathomable scientific questions and engineering challenges. Meanwhile\, such potential is still largely speculative and initial successes are still limited in scope. Massive adoption of AI in science and engineering will be possible only after addressing numerous issues\, and building infrastructure and capacity. \n\nIn this symposium\, we bring together leading thinkers and researchers around the country to share their vision and work\, in four themes. \n\n1) Speeding Up Research – using AI to automate and accelerate research\, such as experimental design optimization and accelerating the workflow.\n\n2) The Nature of Creativity in Research – the role of the AI Researcher and the new role of the Human Researcher.\n\n3) Trusting the AI Researcher – Upholding research rigor in AI-driven research and ensuring the validation of AI-driven discoveries\, and aligning AI-driven discoveries with human values.\n\n4) Expanding the Limit of the Human Researcher– using AI to ask previously unfathomable questions in a number of research fields.\n\nThe intended audience are researchers\, trainees and the general public to this event regardless of the specific fields of their research and the focus of their intellectual pursuit.\n\nFor more information on sessions and speakers\, please visit our event page: https://midas.umich.edu/ai-se-annual-symposium/ UID:115761-21835474@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/115761 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Academic Technology At Michigan,Ai In Science And Engineering,Applications,Artificial Intelligence,computer science,data,Data Science,Discussion,Electrical And Computer Engineering,Electrical Engineering and Computer Science,Engineering,Ethics,Graduate,Graduate and Professional Students,Information and Technology,Interdisciplinary,Postdoctoral Research Fellows,Research,Science,Scientific Computing,Technology LOCATION:Rackham Graduate School (Horace H.) - Amphitheatre (4th Floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240221T155241 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240319T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240319T160000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Products from Pollution: Carbon Capture and Conversion DESCRIPTION:Phasing out fossil fuels is a primary means to fight climate change\, but it alone is not enough. Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

Amongst many other things\, he identified the minimum amount of redundancy that needs to be added to a communication to enable reliable decoding on reception. Since then\, the paradigm has been to co-design cleverly restricted classes of mathematically precise grammars called codes with code-specific correction algorithms called decoders.\n\nIn this talk\, we introduce Guessing Random Additive Noise Decoding (GRAND)\, class of error correction decoders based on a readily understood paradigm that makes them suitable for use with any moderate redundancy code of any length. Even though the first mathematical analysis was only published in 2018\, GRAND has already resulted in taped-out chips that demonstrate its class-leading efficiency in silicon. In this talk\, we explain the theoretical insight behind GRAND as well as recent developments that demonstrate its ability to decode long low-rate codes more accurately and efficiently than those in widely used standards.\n\nThe work is based on a collaboration with Muriel Medard (MIT)\, with the circuits elements performed in collaboration with Rabia Yazicigil (BU)\, as well as their groups.\n\nBio\n\nKen R.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833454@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

Addressing the Elephant in the Room\nAntoinette Weibel\nTuesday\, March 19\, 2024\n11:00 am - 12:00 p.m. ET\nFree\, registration required to obtain login information\n\nEvent link:\nhttps://positiveorgs.bus.umich.edu/events/positive-for-whom-addressing-the-elephant-in-the-room/ \n\nPositive Links:\nThe Positive Links Speaker Series\, presented by Michigan Ross’ Center for Positive Organizations\, offers inspiring and practical science-based strategies to build and bolster thriving organizations. Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders.\n\nAbout the talk:\nMost scholars in the realm of positive organizations share a common passion: we all aspire to alleviate some of the suffering in the world. Consequently\, we are actively engaged in studying positive phenomena such as trust\, compassion\, high-quality connections\, flourishing\, and more. Despite this\, many of us shy away from addressing a crucial underlying question: positive for whom and on what grounds? There is also contemplation on whether “positive” is indeed the most fitting label\, as opposed to “good” or “for the common good.” Often\, we adhere to the value-free label of social science\, neither acknowledging the underlying value-driven nature of our work nor recognizing that by frequently choosing performance as the dependent variable\, we implicitly align with instrumentalism and utilitarian thinking. \n\nIn the upcoming discussion\, Antoinette will share her story and explain why she chose to directly confront the value question in her new project\, “good organizations.” By adopting a distinctly virtue ethics approach\, she emphasizes the need to qualify the term “positive\,” to differentiate between flourishing and thriving\, and to recognize that trust can be ethical only in conjunction with practical wisdom. Antoinette will elaborate on how good organizations view prosperity as a means to the end of collective development and good work\, aiming to enable the good life of all stakeholders touched by the organization. Lastly\, she will elucidate why she believes that we\, as engaged scholars and managers alike\, cannot exempt ourselves from contemplating values and ethics. According to Antoinette\, coming to explicit terms with our normative foundation is the only genuine way to alleviate the suffering within organizations.\n\nStudent Watch Party: Watch this streamed session together with other students for an in-person community experience followed by a structured discussion about how to put insights from Positive Links into practice. Registration for the Student Watch Party is included as an option when registering for this session of Positive Links.\n\nAbout Weibel:\nProfessor Dr. Antoinette Weibel is chaired professor for human resource management at the University of St.Gallen and Director at the Institute for Work and Employment Research at the University of St.Gallen.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621237@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240319T112034 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240319T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240319T133000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Anti-Racist Community Engagement Workshop DESCRIPTION:Anti-Racist Community Engagement is an advanced interactive workshop for participants who are already familiar with both community engagement and anti-racism.

However\, research on canine assemblies and structural variations have lagged behind human\, mouse\, or rat research due to a lack of genomic resources\, and an important part of these are duplication. Large genomic duplications have gone relatively uninvestigated in modern canine research\, largely due to the difficulties in assembling and assessing them properly as a result of their size and conflicting nature. In this investigation\, with the recent explosion and availability of canine genomic researchers\, we searched for structural variations\, copy number variations\, and retrocopies\, which are all subcategories of genomic duplications. By comparing unique retrocopies across the nine canines we have available\, and calculating the number of generations since genome divergence\, we were able to determine a rate of novel retrocopy insertion at an average of 1/693 births. Together\, our investigation illustrates both the difficulties of finding duplications and retrocopies\, and highlights the variable representation of duplications across canines.

Using Netflix as a case study\, I focus on the recent public debate surrounding its failed attempt to add a playback speed feature to its streaming platform. World-renowned filmmakers pushed Netflix to shelve this idea when it was first introduced in 2018\, claiming their films were not intended to be watched twice as fast. Yet\, citing “requests from deaf and blind subscribers\,” Netflix decided to add this feature to its interface in August 2020\, when millions were sheltering-in-place due to the pandemic. This presentation asks what led to this decision\, and what can the marketing discourse surrounding it teach us about how corporations monetize “accessibility.” Theorizing the difference between \"time-shifting\" and \"time-hacking\"\, I argue that speed-watching is a mode of survival enabling different users to advance a wide range of goals: media literacy\, the thrill of speed\, and avoiding a mortifying fear of boredom.\n\nNeta Alexander is an Assistant Professor of Film and Media at Colgate University\, NY and a former Assistant Editor of the Journal of Cinema and Media Studies (JCMS).

It is the large-population limit of a heterogeneously interacting diffusive particle system\, where the interaction is of mean-field type with weights characterized by an underlying graphon function. Through observation of continuous-time trajectories within the particle system\, we construct plug-in estimators of the particle density\, the drift coefficient\, and thus the graphon interaction weights of the mean-field system. Our estimators for the density and drift are direct results of kernel interpolation on the empirical data\, and a deconvolution method leads to an estimator of the underlying graphon function. We show that\, as the number of particles increases\, the graphon estimator converges to the true graphon function pointwisely\, and as a consequence\, in the cut metric. Besides\, we conduct a minimax analysis within a particular class of particle systems to justify the pointwise optimality of the density and drift estimators.

An exploration of the museum’s origins and early history\, this book focuses on the period when it evolved from displaying Jewish ritual objects\, to Jewish art\, to avant-garde art devoid of Jewish content\, created by non-Jews. Established within a rabbinic seminary\, the museum’s story reflects changes in Jewish society over the twentieth century as it struggled to balance competing values of religion and secularism\, particularism and universalism\, and ethnic pride and assimilation. \n\nJeffrey Abt is a Professor Emeritus at Wayne State University. He earned BFA and MFA degrees in painting at Drake University\, working primarily with Jules Kirschenbaum\; and he subsequently studied at the Jerusalem campus of the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion. Prior to Wayne State\, he worked at the Wichita Art Museum\; the Special Collections Research Center\, University of Chicago\; and Chicago’s Smart Museum of Art.

Racial Divides in the Trump Insurrection and Democracy DESCRIPTION:Did Trump and his MAGAites inflict damage on American political institutions via election denialism and the assault on the U.S. Capitol? While most pundits and many scholars find this a question easy to answer in the affirmative\, to date\, little rigorous evidence has been adduced on Trump’s institutional consequences. Based on surveys of representative samples of the American people in July 2020\, December 2020\, March 2021\, and June 2021\, my analysis examines in great detail whether American political institutions lost legitimacy over the period from before the presidential election to well after it and whether any such loss is associated with acceptance of the “Big Lie” about the election and its aftermath. With one exception\, my highly contrarian conclusion is simple: try as they might (and did)\, Trump and his Republicans did not\, in fact\, succeed in undermining American national political institutions. The empirical evidence indicates that institutions seem to be more resilient than many have imagined\, just as the Legitimacy Theory would predict. The exception\, however\, is of utmost importance for American politics: Among African Americans\, support for democratic institutions and values waned considerably\, largely as a consequence of factors such as the insurrection and experience\, vicarious and personal\, with unfair treatment by legal authorities.\n \nJames L.

It helped clarify the V-A character of the weak interaction [1] and continues to be pivotal in probing for physics beyond the Standard Model by examining potential deviations [2]. During the beta decay of helium-6\, the emitted beta particle corresponds to an expanding spherical shell of charge or Coulomb pulse that can eject one or both electrons. This shake-off must be accounted for in balancing energy and momentum to determine the critical electron antineutrino angular correlations. The principal challenge lies in separating the overlapping single and double ionization channels. Calculations have consistently overestimated double ionization compared with observations [3]. Our new theoretical method addresses this by partitioning the overlapping states into distinct charge states using projection operators [4]. This results in closer alignment with experiment\; however\, discrepancies persist. I will outline our continuing efforts to refine this approach\, highlighting the use of delta function matrix elements to assess the fidelity of the daughter ion's charge state.\n\nThe one-electron pseudostates used to form the aforementioned projection operators are interesting in their own right. These pseudospectra are useful in several atomic physics problems requiring a complete set of states\, especially those with important contributions from very-high-energy intermediate states. An example of this is the Bethe logarithm component of the Lamb shift\, a leading order QED correction [5]. Our current activities on this problem will also be discussed.\n\nFurthermore\, I will touch on recent work concerning the theory of radiative transitions\, where the usual gauge equivalence of the length and velocity forms applies only in the limit of infinite nuclear mass. We have extended this to the case of finite nuclear mass [6]\, developing a formalism which imposes strict constraints on calculations of atomic properties involving n-photon transitions\, such as absorption and spontaneous decay.\n\n[1] T.

Much of its structure is now understood\, but a critical question remains unresolved: is the Mandelbrot set locally connected? The first major breakthrough towards this conjecture was achieved by Yoccoz in the nineties\, who proved that the Mandelbrot set is locally connected at all parameters which are not infinitely quadratic-like renormalizable. A key ingredient in Yoccoz’s work is the PLY-inequality\, which bounds the diameter of certain subsets\, called limbs\, of the Mandelbrot set. These limbs are naturally labeled by the rational numbers\, and the PLY-inequality asserts that the p/q-limb of the Mandelbrot set has size O(1/q). Milnor conjectured that O(1/q2) is the correct scale. For any N ≥ 1\, the main result of this thesis is to verify Milnor’s conjecture for all p/q-limbs where a finite continued fraction of p/q has uniformly bounded length. Our strategy relies on careful analysis of the bifurcation of parabolic fixed points\; we also further develop some of the classical theory in this area. We introduce parabolic and near-parabolic renormalization operators for maps which have parabolic fixed points of arbitrary multiplier and there perturbations\, constructing invariant classes for these operators. We provide an alternative definition to the parabolic towers introduced by Epstein and construct a dynamically natural topology on the space of all parabolic towers. We also study the dynamics of Lavaurs maps\, constructing analogues of polynomial external rays for these functions showing that these rays arise as the Hausdorff limits of polynomial external rays.

LOT-EK’s inspirational art and architectural work reconsiders our modern economy through the icon of globalization\, the shipping container.\n\nIf we pay enough attention to the ordinary\, we see the extraordinary. The shipping container is an accidental icon of our modern age: the eight-foot-by-forty-foot corrugated steel box that brings the world to our doorstep. It brings all our hearts’ desires’\, available for purchase. And it brings us complicity in the global supply chains\, and all the economic\, ecological\, technological\, and political systems that forge those chains\, as those great container ships link maker and user\, buyer and seller\, China and America together across the vast distances of the lawless sea. The design studio LOT-EK is a visionary practice at the intersection of art and architecture\, that specializes in upcycling\, which is the art and science of repurposing\, remaking\, rethinking\, reimagining. Of using old things in new ways. The shipping container is the thing that has captured their imagination for over a quarter-century: they have remade containers into homes\, schools\, galleries\, libraries\, and more. With hundreds of millions of obsolete and unused containers around the world\, this is a new and necessary architecture of the future\, that repairs and regenerates the unnatural environment that we have inherited from the past.\n\nWE START WITH THE THINGS WE FIND is a feature-length documentary of this vision\, and of the soulful lifelong partnership of the people\, designers Ada Tolla and Giuseppe Lignano\, behind it. WE START WITH THE THINGS WE FIND shows us a way to be radically optimistic\, creative\, and construc-tive during times that can feel the opposite of all that. Director Thomas Piper’s acclaimed documentary feature Five Seasons: The Gardens of Piet Oudolf showed how wild and unfavored plants could encourage audiences to live more responsibly with nature\, and now he looks at living more smartly and sweetly with the effects of industry\, infrastructure\, and technology. Taking us from spark-filled workshops to a container ship sea voyage over a shimmering sea\; and explaining all the prosaic and poetic design thinking behind how LOT-EK brings the container to life\, the film shows how all we have can become all we need\, how resourceful subsistence can feel like beautiful abundance\, and how to keep going when we now know there is no such thing as a fresh start. The film is a humanist essay not only about a new kind of design thinking\, but about a new design for life.

Each semester\, Writer to Writer pairs one esteemed University professor with a Sweetland faculty member for a conversation about writing.\n\nThese conversations offer students a rare glimpse into the writing that professors do outside the classroom. You can hear instructors from various disciplines describe how they handle the same challenges student writers face\, from finding a thesis to managing deadlines. Professors will also discuss what they want from student writers in their courses\, and will take questions put forth by students and by other members of the University community. If there's anything you've ever wanted to ask a professor about writing\, Writer to Writer gives you the chance.\n\nThis month Writer to Writer presents a conversation with Petra Kuppers via Zoom.\n\nZoom link: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJcsduitpzoiH9fAB_BfTFnX1emQ0SbZKthg\n\nPetra Kuppers (she/her) is a community performance artist and a disability culture activist. She uses social somatics\, performance\, and speculative writing to engage audiences toward more socially just and enjoyable futures. Petra is the Anita Gonzalez Collegiate Professor of Performance Studies and Disability Culture at the University of Michigan.\n\nHer artistry is grounded in the twin experiences of pain and joy. She has lived with chronic pain all her life\, but her love of movement expresses itself in multiple ways: pushing against established definitions of what dance can be\, and realigning connections between movement and writing. Her experimentation in creative somatics have allowed her to create community projects of embodied dreaming.\n\nHer third performance poetry collection\, Gut Botany (Wayne State University Press\, 2020)\, won the 2022 Creative Book Award by the Association for the Study of Literature and the Environment. Her fourth collection\, Diver Beneath the Street – true crime meets ecopoetry at the level of the soil – appears with Wayne State University Press in February 2024. Kuppers also writes academic books. Her latest\, Eco Soma: Joy and Pain in Speculative Performance Encounters (University of Minnesota Press\, 2022\, open access)\, has received honorable mentions by the National Dance Educators' Organization’s Ruth Murray Book Award\, the British Theatre and Performance Research Association’s’ David Bradby Monograph Award\, and was shortlisted for the de la Torre Bueno Prize by the Dance Studies Association.\n\nPetra was a 2022/2023 Dance/USA Fellow and is a 2023/24 Guggenheim Fellow.\n\nShe is Artistic Director of The Olimpias\, an international disability culture collective\, and co-creates Turtle Disco\, a somatic writing studio\, with her wife\, poet and dancer Stephanie Heit.

Naked Truth is steeped in the folk blues traditions of Muddy Waters\, Skip James\, Son House\, Robert Johnson and even Leo Kottke. Stripped of the electric fervor that defined his previous works\, Ellis’ acoustic music carries a rawness that speaks directly from his soul. The songs unveil another side of Tinsley Ellis\, but one that is totally recognizable to his fans. His gruff\, full-throated vocals intertwine seamlessly with the bare\, acoustic arrangements\, creating an album that is both timeless and immediate. No Depression says\, “Ellis shines. When the tempo slows\, the intensity doesn’t waver.” Blues Music Magazine states\, “Tinsley Ellis is a powerful and commanding presence.

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.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M.

Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

It is an important reminder of the connections that sustain us all\, in the free world and behind the walls.\n\nWe invite you to enjoy the work and\, if you like\, make a purchase. All proceeds\, minus necessary taxes and fees\, go directly to the artists.\n\nThe exhibition opens March 19th:\n5:00 PM Gallery/sales open\n5:30 PM Reception & light refreshments\n6:30 PM Celebration program begins\n*Free accessible shuttle service available on opening night*\n*4:30 - 8:30 PM\, running every half-hour* \n*Loops to the exhibit from the Plymouth Rd.
