SUMMARY:How Abraham Lincoln Used Stories to Touch Hearts\, Minds\, and Funny Bones - Prescott Valley
DESCRIPTION:Like all great men and women\, he was a mixture of talents and motivations. Yet\, the one quality of Lincoln\, above all else\, that allowed him to achieve stratospheric heights\, was his humble ability to tell stories. The goal of this presentation is to equip audiences with the very methods that Abraham Lincoln used to tell stories\, such as mimicry\, self-effacing humor and adding a moral to the story. Terry Sprouse\, author of the book “How Abraham Lincoln Used Stories to Touch Hearts\, Minds\, and Funny Bones\,” also illustrates how he uses stories in his daily life to connect with employees\, co-workers\, children\, doctors and complete strangers. \nTerry Sprouse is a self-proclaimed Lincoln-ologist. Since reading Carl Sandburg’s “Abraham Lincoln\,” which fortuitously fell into his hands as a literature-starved Peace Corps Volunteer in Honduras in 1986\, he has been captivated and inspired by this legendary figure. Terry now writes books and delivers speeches and seminars to groups about Mr. Lincoln and storytelling. Terry and his wife\, Angy\, live in Tucson\, Arizona with their two above-average teenage boys.

SUMMARY:Día de los Muertos: A Celebration of Life and Death - Prescott
DESCRIPTION:Dressed in a Mexican huipil with her face painted in a traditional calavera (skull)\, Elena Díaz Bjorkquist answers the questions of what Día de los Muertos is\, where it came from\, its roots\, and how it’s celebrated. Día los Muertos is a significant and highly celebrated holiday in Mexico and the Southwestern United States. Many Mexicans and Mexican Americans believe death isn’t a subject to be feared or ignored from the living. Life cannot be celebrated without celebrating death.

SUMMARY:Arizona’s First Meteorite Man: H H Nininger - Winslow
DESCRIPTION:Harvey Harlow Nininger was an American meteoriticist and educator who revived interest in the scientific study of meteorites in the 1930s and assembled one of the world’s largest personal collections. He is considered the Father of American Meteoritics and was the founder of the American Meteorite Museum near Meteor Crater which subsequently moved to Sedona. He eventually sold his collection to the British Natural History Museum and to the Center for Meteorite Studies at Arizona State University.

SUMMARY:Arizona Goes to the Moon - Sedona
DESCRIPTION:Arizona played a key role in preparing to send humans to the moon in the late 1960s/early 1970s. The Apollo astronauts themselves traveled to the Grand Canyon and volcanic fields around the state to learn geology and practice their lunar excursions. Meanwhile\, U.S. Geological Survey engineers worked with NASA staff members to develop and test instruments while artists joined forces with scientists to create detailed maps of the moon that were critical to navigating around lunar surface. \nKevin Schindler is an award-winning educator and writer who has worked for more than 20 years at Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff. He was sheriff of the Flagstaff Corral of Westerners for 14 years and a board member of the Flagstaff Festival of Science for 16 years. Combining a dual passion for history and science\, he has presented hundreds of educational programs\, authored four books\, written more than 400 magazine and newspaper articles\, and contributes a bi-weekly astronomy column for the Arizona Daily Sun.

Who should operate prisons in the United States–government or for-profit corporations? Join us for this FRANK Talk to explore issues of mass incarceration in America. \n\nDr. Thomas J. Davis teaches U.S. constitutional and legal history at ASU and has taught as a visiting professor of law at the ASU College of Law. As an historian and lawyer\, in addition to constitutional matters\, he focuses on civil rights\, particularly on issues of race\, identity and law\, employment\, and property law.

SUMMARY:The Big Thirst: Will Arizona Run Out of Water? - Phoenix
DESCRIPTION:Not If We Learn from the Past… \nWhiskey’s for drinking\, and water’s for fighting. The old quip about the West seems truer than ever today\, as growth and climate change threaten  our water supplies. The Colorado River is dwindling\, rural wells are going dry\, and rivers could vanish. But history shows that Arizonans can solve water problems without a gunfight. The late Jack Pfister was a leader in reaching agreements on divisive water issues\, from groundwater pumping to tribal water rights. What can Arizonans learn from Jack’s example to build consensus on the tough issues that we face now and in the future? Join Arizona Humanities and writer Kathleen Ingley for an evening to learn\, discuss\, and reflect on how one person can change the course of public events. \nKathleen Ingley is a freelance writer who specializes in the state’s pivotal issues. She was a reporter and editorial writer at the Arizona Republic\, where her work  has included award-winning series on state trust land\, the potential of solar energy\, the threat of invasive plants\, the increasing impact of the urban heat island and the challenge of growth. She is the author of Water\, Power and Persuasion: How Jack Pfister Helped Shape Modern Arizona. \n

SUMMARY:The Ancient Hohokam Ballgame of Arizona - Buckeye
DESCRIPTION:The ancient Hohokam culture of Arizona constructed at least 200 ball courts more than 800 years ago. These oval depressions were likely used to play a ball game that originated in southern Mexico\, where the game was played with a rubber ball and had a very important role in reenacting the creation of humans in this world.

SUMMARY:Smithsonian Water/Ways Exhibit - Miami-Globe
DESCRIPTION:Read more about Miami-Globe on the Water/Ways website. \nDates: September 22 – November 4\, 2018 \nAddress: 150 N Plaza Circle\, Miami\, Arizona 85539-1629 \nExhibit hours: Thursdays-Saturdays: 11:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.\, Sundays: 12:00 – 3:00 p.m. \nThe mission of Bullion Plaza is “dedicated to preserving and presenting the culturally diverse history\, the human experience\, as well as exploring the natural environment unique to the Globe-Miami region of Arizona.” The building was known as the Bullion Plaza School in Gila County and is on the National Register of Historic Places. \nMiami is located in east-central Arizona\, and it is closely tied with the nearby City of Globe. The “twin” municipalities share a newspaper\, a chamber of commerce\, and a common cultural identity. Although the mining operations that support the economy depend on large amounts of water\, there are no rivers or lakes in the area. The Gila River flows about 30 miles to the south through Winkelman. The Salt River and Roosevelt Lake\, a large reservoir created by Roosevelt Dam\, lie north of the communities. Miami and Globe rely for their own water supply on deep wells that tap into groundwater from the Cutter Basin. The Tonto National Forest surrounds the area on three sides. U.S. Highway 60 connects the towns\, which are about four miles apart. \nWater/Ways is sponsored by the Salt River Project\, Nestlé Waters North America\, the American Slavic Association\, and Chaos RX Optics.

SUMMARY:School Choice in Arizona - Flagstaff
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Angelina Castagno\, Northern Arizona University\, Educational Foundations \nArizona is one of the nation’s most “choice friendly” states regarding educational opportunities at the K-12 level. “School choice” is a term for K–12 schooling options in the U.S. describing a wide array of alternatives to public schools\, including charter schools. The expansion of charter schools and vouchers (often called educational savings accounts) is not without controversy. Does school choice improve school quality? Does school choice increase educational opportunity for all students? Has school choice fostered the privatization of education in the U.S.? Join us for a FRANK Talk about the policy and practical implications of school choice. \nDr. Angelina E. Castagno is an Associate Professor of Educational Leadership and Foundations at Northern Arizona University. She is also the Executive Director of Just Perspective\, LLC\, which provides equity consulting\, diversity education\, and culturally responsive program evaluation to schools\, universities\, and community organizations. Her teaching and research centers on equity and diversity in U.S. schools\, and particularly issues of whiteness and Indigenous education. Her most recent publication is an edited volume (with Teresa L. McCarty) called The anthropology of education policy: Ethnographic inquiries into policy as sociocultural process\, with Routledge. She also published Educated in Whiteness: Good intentions and diversity in schools in 2014\, with the University of Minnesota Press.
