SUMMARY:Life Before AD 1500 on the Upper Gila River\, Southwest New Mexico - Phoenix
DESCRIPTION:Read more at :https://www.archaeologysouthwest.org/event/life-before-ad-1500-on-the-upper-gila-river-southwest-new-mexico/ \nArchaeology Café returns to Changing Hands for a new season of programs exploring the deep and diverse history of Phoenix and the greater Southwest in a jargon-free zone. Dr. Karen Schollmeyer will encourage Valley residents to look east up the Gila River as she explores Life Before AD 1500 on the Upper Gila River\, Southwest New Mexico. \nResidents of the upper reaches of the Gila River in southwest New Mexico found successful ways of farming\, hunting\, and living together for over a millennium.  This talk explores some of these past ways of living\, including periods in which people gathered into large villages or dispersed into less archaeologically visible communities.  The unique archaeological record of this area allows us to examine the challenges and benefits of these different ways of living\, and how farmers adapted to local conditions from the time of the earliest villages into the late 1400s. \nABOUT ARCHAEOLOGY CAFÉ \nPresented by Archaeology Southwest\, a nonprofit organization working across the Southwest to explore and protect the places of our past\, Archaeology Café is an informal forum where adults can learn more about the Southwest’s deep history and speak directly to experts. At Archaeology Café\, we break down the static\, jargon-laden dynamic of traditional lectures\, and have an expert share some ideas with the group in ways that get discussion going. (Food and drink make things a little livelier\, too.) \nThis program is supported by a grant from Arizona Humanities.

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:AZ H20 + Art (Phoenix)
DESCRIPTION:Burton Barr Central Library \nSecond Floor\, College Depot Auditorium \nAZ H20 + Art with Jim Ballinger \nHoover Dam is an iconic marvel of American engineering.  Created to manage the floodwaters of the Colorado River\, the dam continues to affect Arizonans’ lives daily.  But the Hoover dam is rarely thought of as a significant work of art.  Since artists first visited our region\, water has been a subject for their work\, ranging from rivers and lakes to dams\, agriculture and recreation.  This program will explore works of art created over the past 150 years\, and invite participants to discuss the various ways water is systemic to life in the Arizona deserts\, mountains and the Colorado Plateau. \nJim Ballinger is uniquely qualified to lead the conversation\, having served as the director of the Phoenix Art Museum for 33 years. During his tenure\, the Phoenix Art Museum presented nearly 500 exhibits\, 50 of which Ballinger personally organized. Ballinger has a keen interest in the intersection of art and water\, and is a nationally respected arts advocate. \n

SUMMARY:Life on the Lazy B as Lived by an American Cowboy and Rancher - Tucson
DESCRIPTION:In 1880\, Alan Day’s grandfather homesteaded the Lazy B ranch.  This dusty dry tract of land produced a Supreme Court Justice\, a lauded Arizona state senator\, and a career rancher\, cowboy\, and land conservationist. Alan explores the ranching and cowboying life from the chuck wagon years of his childhood\, through his adult years of increasing bureaucracy\, airplanes\, computers and now even drones. At the heart of his stories lie adventures that most of us will never experience\, as well as a deep love of the natural world. \nIf it is possible to say someone can be born a cowboy\, then Alan Day was born one. He was the third generation to grow up on the 200\,000-acre Lazy B cattle ranch straddling the high deserts of southern Arizona and New Mexico. After graduating from the University of Arizona\, Alan returned to manage Lazy B for the next 40 years\, during which time he received awards for his dedication to land stewardship. In addition to co-authoring with his sister\, Sandra Day O’Connor\, the New York Times bestselling memoir Lazy B\, Alan also is the author of The Horse Lover: A Cowboy’s Quest to Save the Wild Mustangs and Cowboy Up: Life Lessons from Lazy B.

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. This plática (talk) traces the origins of the Mexican festival and describes the traditional elements associated with the holiday including foods\, folk crafts\, and altars. \nElena Díaz Björkquist is a writer\, historian\, and artist from Tucson\, Arizona. She writes about Morenci where she was born. Elena is the author of two books\, Suffer Smoke and Water from the Moon and co-editor of two anthologies by her writing group: Sowing the Seeds\, Una Cosecha de Recuerdos and Our Spirit\, Our Reality: Celebrating our Stories. She is a scholar and research affiliate with SIROW at the University of Arizona. Elena is the recipient of the 2012 AHC Dan Shilling Public Humanities Scholar Award and the Arizona Commission on the Arts Bill Desmond Writing Award.

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. This presentation covers his fascination with this extraterrestrial material and the many discoveries made by Dr. Nininger. \nKenneth Zoll is the Executive Director of the Verde Valley Archaeology Center in Camp Verde. He is also a volunteer docent at cultural heritage sites in the Coconino National Forest. He has conducted extensive fieldwork in cultural astronomy of the Southwest and is a certified instructor in cultural astronomy with the Arizona Archaeological Society. He is currently working with Arizona State University’s Center for Meteorite Studies on the use of meteorites among ancient Southwest cultures. Zoll is the author of several popular books on cultural astronomy and rock art in Central Arizona\, as well as several cultural astronomy articles in professional publications.

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.
