Born and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.

In Chicana Fotos, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.

Chicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley, Rachel Dawson, Emilie Farrugia, Kelsi Franzino, Andrew Han, Jack Hyland, Maggie Lemak, Megan Lewin-Smith, Katie Mongoven, Olivia Moore, Pau Nava, and Sarah Wolf.

Chicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.

The Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs, civic life, civil rights, ethnic and religious organizations, and community development across Southeast Michigan.

Chicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies, Wayne State University, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

From their start at an open mic at the Ark in the summer of 1974, this award-winning duo consisting of David Tamulevich and Michael Hough has become a perennial favorite, not only here in southeastern Michigan but all over the folk singer-songwriter circuit. Their songwriting and recordings have received consistently high praise, and their live performances even more so. Their songs are touching, humorous, insightful, and intelligent, and their music is always revealing something new‑lately they've become a key presence in the consistently high-quality local songwriting collective the Yellow Room Gang. Mustard's Retreat recently celebrated their 40th anniversary as a duo, and they're still creating music anew! Come and hear their new song about Flint, "Take the Children and Run."

Born and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.

In Chicana Fotos, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.

Chicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley, Rachel Dawson, Emilie Farrugia, Kelsi Franzino, Andrew Han, Jack Hyland, Maggie Lemak, Megan Lewin-Smith, Katie Mongoven, Olivia Moore, Pau Nava, and Sarah Wolf.

Chicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.

The Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs, civic life, civil rights, ethnic and religious organizations, and community development across Southeast Michigan.

Chicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies, Wayne State University, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

In 300 years, no composer has had more influence over the direction and beauty of Western music than Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750). This is especially true for choral music where Bach’s creativity and inventiveness have been the mileposts for countless master composers.

Join Voices Valiant for an open rehearsal and mini-lesson on Bach. We’ll analyze and sing several Bach choral pieces which highlight his gorgeous melodies and intelligent counterpoint as well as several newer works inspired by this Baroque genius. Music will be provided.

Instructor Norma Freeman will lead this class for those 50 and over which meets for two hours.

California Guitar Trio (March 1, 2017 8:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/35619 35619-5280549@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, March 1, 2017 8:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)

The California Guitar Trio plays progressive rock, surf music, jazz, blues, country, probably the definitive version of "Bohemian Rhapsody," and some traditional North African and Asian sounds for good measure. And did you hear them at the Ann Arbor Folk Festival a few years ago, playing the last movement of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, minus the voices but with pretty much everything else intact? Like most Californians, the three members of the California Guitar Trio all come from someplace else: Bert Lams is Belgian, Hideyo Moriya is from Japan (where the band has a strong following), and Paul Richards is from Salt Lake City. All three felt the call to push themselves to the limit by enrolling in Robert Fripp’s challenging Guitar Craft courses, where they first met in 1987. They went on to tour together as part of Fripp’s League of Crafty Guitarists before forming The California Guitar Trio in Los Angeles four years later. The CGT is a melding of diverse talents unlike anything you've heard before, and one you can't afford to miss! They're celebrating their 25th anniversary with a brand new album, "Komorebi."

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (50+)

The UM has one of the most active programs of building renovation and new construction of all American universities. Some projects never make it to the construction phase. Because most never progressed beyond preliminary stages, there is often little documentation remaining, and they are difficult to reconstruct. This presentation for adults over 50 focuses on those for which design drawings survive. For more recent projects it draws on knowledge gained during 37 years as the university planner. Fred Mayer was University Planner at UM from 1968 through his retirement in 2003.

Organized By: Penny W Stamps School of Art & Design

Exhibition Dates: Friday, February 17 - April 14, 2017
Opening Reception: Friday, February 17, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.
Gallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday, February 17, 2017 at 12 pm, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room
Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University
5401 Cass Ave, Detroit, MI 48202

Born and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.

In Chicana Fotos, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.

Chicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley, Rachel Dawson, Emilie Farrugia, Kelsi Franzino, Andrew Han, Jack Hyland, Maggie Lemak, Megan Lewin-Smith, Katie Mongoven, Olivia Moore, Pau Nava, and Sarah Wolf.

Chicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.

The Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs, civic life, civil rights, ethnic and religious organizations, and community development across Southeast Michigan.

Chicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies, Wayne State University, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

What the Heck is Abstract Art? (March 3, 2017 2:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/37397 37397-6527706@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, March 3, 2017 2:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (50+)

For thirty-five thousand years people have been making art. How and perhaps even why we chose the first decades of the twentieth century to start making art with no reference to the visible, tangible world are the puzzles this group will try to untangle. Mr. Kapetan is a semi-retired artist living in Ann Arbor. Most of his artwork is liturgical. However, that which has not been liturgical has been abstract. He can't get enough of it, so he organized this discussion group. This class for adults over 50 meets Fridays through March 24th.

Rose Cousins just might be Nova Scotia's answer to Iris DeMent, or even to Kate Wolf. Says Lifestyle Nova Scotia: "Cousins writes songs strong on story, melody, and honest observations ... that demand an unaffected but beautiful voice." Her 2012 album "We Have Made a Spark" took home a Canadian Juno Award along with many other awards, including a spot on NPR’s Top 10 Americana & Folk Albums list. That album was recorded in Boston, where Rose spends part of her time, and where she's found strong support from the city's vibrant songwriting community. Rooted in authenticity and conviction of voice, the songs of Rose Cousins make you feel as though she sings for you, about your life. "We develop patterns that keep us from moving forward," Rose says. "It takes a deep breath and a bucket of courage to face the uncomfortable, painful things we work so hard to avoid. Reward comes from recognizing the obstacle exists and pushing through fear." Rose comes to Michigan with a brand new release, "Natural Conclusion."

By the end of the six weeks, they should be able to count numbers, tell days/week/months and time, name fruits/vegetables/animals/colors and siblings/family members, handle ordering in a restaurant and use important verbs and things in daily life, so they can carry on a simple Chinese conversation. This class for adults over 50 meets Mondays through April 17th. No class April 10th.

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Penny W Stamps School of Art & Design

Exhibition Dates: Friday, February 17 - April 14, 2017
Opening Reception: Friday, February 17, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.
Gallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday, February 17, 2017 at 12 pm, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room
Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University
5401 Cass Ave, Detroit, MI 48202

Born and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.

In Chicana Fotos, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.

Chicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley, Rachel Dawson, Emilie Farrugia, Kelsi Franzino, Andrew Han, Jack Hyland, Maggie Lemak, Megan Lewin-Smith, Katie Mongoven, Olivia Moore, Pau Nava, and Sarah Wolf.

Chicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.

The Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs, civic life, civil rights, ethnic and religious organizations, and community development across Southeast Michigan.

Chicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies, Wayne State University, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

Join UM professor and 2016 PEN/ESPN Award for Literary Sports Writing recipient Scott Ellsworth for the behind-the-scenes story of what the New York Post called "a brave moment in basketball, forgotten to history, which resonates far beyond the court." During World War II, two college basketball teams in the deeply segregated South - one black and one white - played a secret game against each other in a locked gymnasium. This daring affront to Jim Crow marked an important step along the road to civil rights. This class is for adults over 50.

Fred Eaglesmith is Ontario's roots-country original! There are other songwriters who populate their creations with small-time crooks, small-town loners, and working-class heroes. But Fred Eaglesmith's songs stand out for their edge of desperation and their raucous yet bemused humor—and for the incredible energy and on-the-edge quality of his live shows. Circulating on tour from his Ontario farm, Fred harks back to an earlier era of roots music with his raw, driving country soul. Fred's 20th album, "Tambourine," draws on the spirit of pure 1960s rock and roll.

Organized By: Penny W Stamps School of Art & Design

Andrew Logan’s work spans the fields of sculpture, theater, pageants, jewelry, and interior design. As a scene-maker Logan is the mastermind behind London’s long-running Alternative Miss World pageant. A celebration of transformation, creative free-reign, and the ordinary turned extraordinary, the pageant features a counter-cultural parade of freaks, fops, show offs, and drag queens. From his early fame amongst London’s fashionable and artistic crowd, who have variously dubbed him ‘Faberge for the millennium’, ‘The Wizard of Odd’, and ‘mirror of our times’, he has become an influential artist of international stature. The Andrew Logan Museum of Sculpture in Wales is the only European museum dedicated to a living artist. Brian Eno said: “His work takes the risk of being completely clear in its intentions, doesn’t obscure itself in artspeak, and is unashamedly beautiful. […] He is also a ‘scene-maker’ — one of those rare people with the ability to bring out in others their sense of creativity and curiosity.”

Supported by the University of Michigan Institute for Humanities and Chelsea River Gallery.

"Remnants" is an award-winning, minimalist piece that includes the voices of 3 men and 4 women, currently presented as a one-man performance by the author. The play reflects more than 40 years of conversation between the playwright and a small group of Holocaust survivors. "Remnants" is thus not testimony, but rather recreates memory as it erupts within sustained and deepening acquaintance.

HELEN MOORE

Helen Moore has been a life-long advocate and warrior for the children of Detroit, beginning with her days as a State of Michigan Social Worker and continuing with Black Parents for Quality Education and The Keep the Vote No Takeover Coalition. She is also a member of Detroit’s Council of Elders. Ms. Moore educates her community on school district policy, student rights, and other education-related legal issues and parental involvement efforts. She earned a bachelor's degree from Wayne State University and a juris doctorate from the Detroit College of Law.

BERNA RAVITZ

My passion for education began bubbling within me long before I could articulate it. As a youngster I was decidedly unchallenged by school. Ironically that led me to acquire a Bachelor’s in Psychology, a Master’s in Education, certification in Bilingual Education, and finally, a Doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction. All of this was in pursuit of the magic formula for 'evening the playing field' for all of my students. I began utilizing gifted and talented strategies (constructivist education) and saw amazing results in the progress of our students. My Experience as Michigan Teacher of the Year, National Distinguished Principal as well as an Educational Fulbright exchange allowed me such incredible experiences that are invaluable in my work even today. Upon retirement from my being a principal, I worked for several years as an Educational Coach in Detroit Public Schools; I currently dedicate my time towards fulfilling the mission of Simply Start Kids.

RUSS BELLANT

Russ Bellant is a retired City of Detroit employee, President of the Helco Block Club, President of the Detroit Library Commission, member of the Detroit Public Schools Task Force and also a founding steering committee member of RESTORE northeast Detroit.

Opening Reception: Friday, February 17, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.
Gallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday, February 17, 2017 at 12 pm, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room
Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University
5401 Cass Ave, Detroit, MI 48202

Born and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.

In Chicana Fotos, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.

Chicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley, Rachel Dawson, Emilie Farrugia, Kelsi Franzino, Andrew Han, Jack Hyland, Maggie Lemak, Megan Lewin-Smith, Katie Mongoven, Olivia Moore, Pau Nava, and Sarah Wolf.

Chicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.

The Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs, civic life, civil rights, ethnic and religious organizations, and community development across Southeast Michigan.

Chicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies, Wayne State University, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

This is a beautifully structured play, with nifty surprise endings[.] ... Mr. Cariani describes the play's subject as 'falling in and out of love.' It is just as much about pain." The discussion for adults over 50 will focus on an aspect of dramaturgy, directorial choices or stage design. Tickets are $17, to be paid for at the pre-show discussion. http://www.a2ct.org

Acclaimed film director Hong Sangsoo's latest work.

Quite by accident, a film director arrives in town a day early. With time to kill before his lecture the next day, he stops by a restored, old palace and meets a fledgling artist. She’s never seen any of his films, but knows he’s famous. They talk. And together, they go to her workshop to look at her paintings, have Sushi and Soju. More conversation follows, and drinks, and then an awkward get-together with friends where all sorts of secrets are revealed. All the while, they may or may not be falling for each other. Then, quite unexpectedly, we begin again, but now things appear somewhat different.

Please see the review on The New York Times [http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/24/movies/right-now-wrong-then-review.html]

Born and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.

In Chicana Fotos, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.

Chicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley, Rachel Dawson, Emilie Farrugia, Kelsi Franzino, Andrew Han, Jack Hyland, Maggie Lemak, Megan Lewin-Smith, Katie Mongoven, Olivia Moore, Pau Nava, and Sarah Wolf.

Chicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.

The Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs, civic life, civil rights, ethnic and religious organizations, and community development across Southeast Michigan.

Chicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies, Wayne State University, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

Digital cinema presentation. Love is painful and NOT for the faint of heart. Warring yakuza clans pit crime bosses against one another through deception and rumor. At the center of it all is the homicidal, unhinged Ichi. Warped by the rival gangs and their desire for ultimate power, Ichi is seduced by their psychological manipulation that catapults him into an enraged spree of pop art assassinations, in search for redemption and answers for his life.
Based from the acclaimed manga of HIDEO YAMAMOTO and grated through the eye-popping prolific lens of filmmaker TAKASHI MIIKE, this sensationalist turn at gangster noir offers a unique vantage point from the new millennium.

Born and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.

In Chicana Fotos, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.

Chicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley, Rachel Dawson, Emilie Farrugia, Kelsi Franzino, Andrew Han, Jack Hyland, Maggie Lemak, Megan Lewin-Smith, Katie Mongoven, Olivia Moore, Pau Nava, and Sarah Wolf.

Chicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.

The Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs, civic life, civil rights, ethnic and religious organizations, and community development across Southeast Michigan.

Chicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies, Wayne State University, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

Bob Bain is the Associate Professor in the Education, History and Museum Studies
at the University of Michigan. Professor Bain has received awards for teaching at
both the high school and university levels, including the College Educator of the Year Award from the Michigan Council of Social Studies in both 2008 and 2011.

Today we have more information available to us electronically than is held in many libraries. How do we make sense of all of the information coming our way? How do we decide what claims we can trust? The Big History Project tackles these challenges by helping students form big pictures of the past, present, and the future as well as teaching effective ways to examine claims. The Big History Project, a free course for high schools, was created because of Bill Gates’ personal interest in
providing this big-picture, problem-based class to high school students around the world.

This is the seventh in a series of ten distinguished lectures held on the second Tuesday of each month. The next lecture will be held April 4, 2017. The title is Emergency Medicine – The Good Things Wars Give Us!

The New York Times has called Willie Nile "one of the most gifted singer-songwriters to emerge from the New York scene in years." His album "Streets Of New York" was hailed as "a platter for the ages" by Uncut. Bono, Lou Reed, Lucinda Williams, and Jim Jarmusch are among those who have sung his praises. Willie Nile's live performances, like his recent razor's-edge set at the 2014 Ann Arbor Folk Festival, are legendary. He has toured across the U.S. opening for The Who at the personal request of the band and sung with Bruce Springsteen at Giants Stadium. Willie was born in Buffalo, New York, sings, plays guitar and piano, lives in New York City, and has outstanding parking tickets in many states. Anyone who’s paid attention to his recent work knows that Willie Nile is currently in the midst of a creative renaissance that’s produced some of the mot compelling music of his 35-year career. Willie's latest release is the superb "American Ride."

Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.

Chicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley, Rachel Dawson, Emilie Farrugia, Kelsi Franzino, Andrew Han, Jack Hyland, Maggie Lemak, Megan Lewin-Smith, Katie Mongoven, Olivia Moore, Pau Nava, and Sarah Wolf.

Chicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.

The Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs, civic life, civil rights, ethnic and religious organizations, and community development across Southeast Michigan.

Chicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies, Wayne State University, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SAVING THE PAST FOR THE FUTURE: THE LEGACY OF THE LIBRARY OF ALEXANDRIA (March 16, 2017 10:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/38827 38827-7429330@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, March 16, 2017 10:00am

Organized By: Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (50+)

Francesca Schironi, Associate Professor of Classics at UM, has worked extensively on Aristarchus of Samothrace (the most important Alexandrian scholar), publishing a collection of his fragments and articles on him and Hellenistic scholarship. She also published an edition with commentary of a papyrus lexicon, a monograph on book-conventions in papyri, and articles on modern reception of the classics. Her new book on Aristarchus’ work on the Iliad is forthcoming with UM press.

The lecture will focus on the Library of Alexandria and its legacy, in ancient times and for us. Prof. Schironi will explain how and why it was founded and discuss a few examples of the work carried out by intellectuals during the Library’s golden age. Alexandrian scholars saved masterpieces of Greek literature for us, but their legacy goes far beyond that, and it reminds us why libraries are important and why we should care about them.

This is the fourth of a six-lecture series. The subject is The Library – Civilization’s Treasure House of Knowledge. The next lecture in the series will be March 23. The Subject is DISCOVERING RADICAL HISTORY IN THE JOSEPH A. LABADIE COLLECTION

Organized By: Michigan Medicine

Last summer, Dallas trauma surgeon Brian H. Williams, M.D., FACS, found himself thrust into the middle of a national crisis. A peaceful protest about police treatment of African Americans had ended in bloodshed, with 12 officers shot by a lone gunman. Williams led the team that worked to save their lives – and emerged with a new drive to confront violence and racism.
On March 23, he’ll share his story with leaders, scholars and community members from U-M and southeastern Michigan, at a special symposium on violent interactions between law enforcement and black Americans.
The event will take a look at the public health impacts of such interactions -- as well as the historical and current factors that play into it. It’s designed to bring people from many fields together to work toward solutions by joining action teams that will continue their work after the event is over.
RSVPs are now being accepted for the symposium, which will run from 6 to 9 p.m. in the Auditorium of the School of Public Health II building at 1420 Washington Heights. Light refreshments will be served.
The event was organized by Washtenaw County’s Public Health and Sheriff’s departments; U-M’s Department of Internal Medicine, Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, School of Public Health, Institute for Research on Women and Gender, and Students of Color of Rackham; as well as Eastern Michigan University and My Brother’s Keeper-Washtenaw County.
In addition to Williams, the event will feature a panel of speakers that includes the Washtenaw County sheriff, a former state representative, and a U-M professor and postdoctoral fellow – with a Wayne State University leader acting as moderator.
The event will explore how individuals can advocate for social justice, anti-bias reforms, and community building, how community mobilization be used as a strategy to promote social cohesion and community-level advocacy for safer environments for all, and potential strategies to address the upstream and downstream factors resulting in violent interactions between law enforcement and blacks.
The event is free and open to the public. Community members, students, public policy and health professionals, social scientists, legislators, and law enforcement are especially encouraged to attend.

According to The Huffington Post, Saya Woolfalk “doesn’t create artworks, she creates worlds.” A New York-based artist who uses science fiction and fantasy to re-imagine societies and manufacture immersive, multimedia environments, Woolfalk’s work is highly narrative in nature. Daughter of a Japanese mother and an African American father, Woolfalk explores themes of ambiguity, difference, and cooperation. Her work is highly collaborative, and her captivating installations include projects with dancers, animators, filmmakers, and musicians. With the multiyear projects No Place, The Empathics, and ChimaTEK, Woolfalk has created the world of the Empathics, a fictional race of women who are able to alter their genetic makeup and fuse with plants. Woolfalk has exhibited broadly in the world’s top contemporary art centers including PS1 MoMA; Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; and Studio Museum, Harlem, to name a few.

Supported by the University of Michigan Museum of Art, the University of Michigan Institute for Humanities, and Chelsea River Gallery.

The Bilingual Learner: Language, Literacy, and Brain Development

The rise in global migration results in ever-growing numbers of bilingual and multilingual speakers. Among them is a growing number of bilingual children. On the one hand, we marvel at the ease with which young children master new languages. On the other hand, we fear that learning more than one language may delay children’s language acquisition. Questions commonly asked by parents, teachers, and clinicians include: Are bilingual infants delayed in learning to speak? Are bilingual children delayed in learning to read? Do bilinguals confuse their two languages? In this talk, we will address the common myths about bilingual children’s language and literacy acquisition. We will also discuss the implications of bilingualism for children’s cognitive and brain development as well as best strategies for learning languages for children and adults.

Born and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.

In Chicana Fotos, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation.

Songwriter and XM radio Outlaw Country" host Elizabeth Cook is the creator of some of the toughest, most emotionally honest country/new Southern songwriting work of the last decade. If you like Jason Isbell, come and check out Elizabeth Cook! Last year this Grand Ole Opry regular released a new album, "Exodus of Venus," and it might have been something of a shock. “There hasn’t been a lot to laugh about,” confesses the effervescent songwriter who once penned “It Takes Balls To Be A Woman” with equal parts Dolly Parton pluck and Loretta Lynn brio. What hasn't changed is the honesty and emotional depth of one of Nashville's most serious and fearless artists. A songwriter who doesn't release new material until she has something to say, Elizabeth Cook always offers an evening of music that will leave you thinking about it long afterward. East Nashville–based songwriter and satirist Darrin Bradbury opens.

Organized By: Penny W Stamps School of Art & Design

Exhibition Dates: Friday, February 17 - April 14, 2017
Opening Reception: Friday, February 17, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.
Gallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday, February 17, 2017 at 12 pm, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room
Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University
5401 Cass Ave, Detroit, MI 48202

Born and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.

In Chicana Fotos, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.

Chicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley, Rachel Dawson, Emilie Farrugia, Kelsi Franzino, Andrew Han, Jack Hyland, Maggie Lemak, Megan Lewin-Smith, Katie Mongoven, Olivia Moore, Pau Nava, and Sarah Wolf.

Chicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.

The Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs, civic life, civil rights, ethnic and religious organizations, and community development across Southeast Michigan.

Chicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies, Wayne State University, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

Digital cinema presentation. An aimless, irresponsible cop is pulled into sharp focus by the sudden, inexplicable disappearance of his teenage daughter. His search for clues leads him into chilling detail of an alternate realities with whom he believed his loved one to actually be, but will stop at no cost as a father to find her and the truth.
The film is the latest from the internationally award-winning TETSUYA NAKASHIMA, adapted from the best-selling mystery novel of AKIO FUKAMACHI, where noir is evolved from the underground of yakuza clans and the detectives looking to crack them with an investigative pivot into unknown, darkened subcultures of today’s youth.

5401 Cass Ave, Detroit, MI 48202

Born and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.

In Chicana Fotos, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.

Chicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley, Rachel Dawson, Emilie Farrugia, Kelsi Franzino, Andrew Han, Jack Hyland, Maggie Lemak, Megan Lewin-Smith, Katie Mongoven, Olivia Moore, Pau Nava, and Sarah Wolf.

Chicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.

The Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs, civic life, civil rights, ethnic and religious organizations, and community development across Southeast Michigan.

Chicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies, Wayne State University, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

Design for America is hosting a workshop on how to engage with communities. Have you ever wondered exactly what it means to engage with a community organization? What about engaging with a nonprofit vs. a corporation? These are just a few questions we’re hoping to answer.

We’ll be breaking down the steps and strategies on how to enter and exit communities and manage community-oriented projects with Kelly Kowatch, Associate Director of Engaged Learning at the School of Information, and Alissa Talley-Pixley, Career Development and Engaged Learning Coordinator at the School of Information.

Writer to Writer with special guest Clare Croft (March 21, 2017 6:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/36897 36897-5993519@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, March 21, 2017 6:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Sweetland Center for Writing

Sweetland Center for Writing's Writer to Writer series lets you hear directly from University of Michigan professors about their challenges, processes, and expectations as writers and also as readers of student writing. Each semester, Writer to Writer pairs one esteemed University professor with a Sweetland faculty member for a conversation about writing.

This month Writer to Writer welcomes Clare Croft. Clare Croft is a historian, theorist, and dramaturg, working at the intersection of dance studies and performance studies. She specializes in 20th and 21st century American dance, cultural policy, feminist and queer theory, and critical race theory. In all of these areas, Croft considers how dance is a way of thinking and a mode for asking questions. What does it mean to acknowledge that people have bodies and that they use their bodies to make meaning, create community, and critique social structures?

Croft's current book project, Funding Footprints: Dance and American Diplomacy (Oxford University Press), examines the history of U.S. State Department funding of international dance tours. Croft's writing about dance has appeared in Dance Research Journal, Theatre Journal, and Theatre Topics, and is forthcoming in Dance Chronicle. From 2002-2005, Croft was a regular contributor to The Washington Post, and from 2005-2010, she covered dance, as well as theatre and musical theatre, for the Austin American-Statesman.

In 2010, Croft's article, "Ballet Nations: The New York City Ballet's 1962 U.S. State Department-Sponsored Tour of the Soviet Union," received the American Society of Theatre Research's Biennial Sally Banes Publication Prize, which recognizes the publication that best explores the intersections of theatre and dance/movement. Croft was also the 2007 recipient of the Society of Dance History Scholar's Selma Jeanne Cohen Award. At the University of Michigan, Croft teaches courses in the BFA and MFA dance programs, as well as in the BFA interarts program.

Writer to Writer takes place at the Literati bookstore and are broadcast live on WCBN radio. These 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.

An Artist-In-The-Round performance featuring JJ Grey, Marc Broussard, Anders Osborne, and Luther Dickinson, Southern Soul Assembly debuted in the spring of 2014 to rave reviews. These highly seasoned artists and bandleaders have demonstrated a natural ability to contribute to each other’s music through harmonies and guitar, each building upon the others’ songs. Southern Soul Assembly draws from the rich legacy of American Southern culture. Their collaborative live shows cultivate heartfelt storytelling that draws from the members’ Southern roots, combining blues, funk, and rock to produce unique, full-bodied performances. “Just like food in the South, our music is greasier than most,” says member Marc Broussard.
