SUMMARY:Rivers of Dreams: Songs and Stories of Arizona's Waterways with Jay Cravath
DESCRIPTION:PRESENTATION DESCRIPTION \nThe Colorado\, the Gila\, the Salt\, the Verde\, the Hassayampa\, the Santa Cruz: Arizona’s rivers were lush green ribbons of life flowing through a desert landscape. They became sustaining paths for indigenous traders and immigrants leaving wagon tracks and settlements. The Hohokam built vast canals from the Salt to direct irrigation water for crops. European farmers used these same trenches. The Mohave spread line villages along the Colorado—our great western Nile that is now in peril. The Gila provided sustenance for the Pima and passage for such adventurers as Father Garces and Olive Oatman. As Arizona’s only “National Wild and Scenic River\,” the Verde is home to over 50 endangered species. Dr. Cravath weaves narrative\, history\, music\, and images to share the stories of these vital resources. \nThis program is cohosted by the Pima County Public Library – Oro Valley Library Branch. \nABOUT THE SPEAKER \nJay Craváth is a composer\, writer\, and scholar in the field of music and Indigenous studies. He enjoys crafting programs from these fields into interactive discussions that include stories\, musical performance\, and illustrations. Cravath’s most recent album of original music is Songs for Ancient Days. A former music teacher and cultural director for both the Colorado River Indian and Chemehuevi Tribes\, Cravath holds a Ph.D. from ASU in Humanities Education. He has written incidental music for documentaries and live commissions and served as an Arizona Humanities scholar and speaker for two decades. He was a National Endowment for the Humanities Teacher-Scholar. Cravath received the Arizona Humanities Public Scholar Award for his contributions to state educational and cultural organizations. \n

SUMMARY:Jerome – Too Stubborn to Die – How the Town Survived Numerous “Near-Death” Experiences with Jar Mark
DESCRIPTION:PRESENTATION DESCRIPTION \nNumerous fires\, landslides\, floods\, labor strikes\, polluted air\, epidemics\, Depression\, recessions\, financial collapse\, one adversity after another. Any one of these might spell the end of a lesser community. But\, in Arizona\, one town survived these “near-death” experiences\, and more; yet managed to survive. Some might even say\, “thrive.” This presentation looks at the numerous disasters\, tragedies and setbacks Jerome faced in its first ¾ century. And still come out on top. From the time in prehistory when the Sinagua’s mined copper for decoration and ornamentation\, to the Spanish exploring for gold and silver\, to the modern discoveries of copper riches all within Cleopatra Hill\, Jerome exploded to the 4th largest city in Arizona. Less than half-a-century later\, its numbers had dwindled to 243. How Jerome remade itself from a major mining center into a tourist-filled\, living Ghost Town is a fascinating tale that features many seldom images. \nThis program is cohosted by the Buckeye Valley Museum. \nABOUT THE SPEAKER \nHistorian Jay Mark’s career includes antiques & bookstore owner\, commercial photography\, professional theater\, radio\, and television broadcaster. His background\, knowledge and experience contribute to his lively and engaging presentations. A regular contributor of history- related articles to the Antique Register; Arizona Contractor & Community\, and The Arizona Republic\, Jay is also a published writer of seven antiques-related books. He is co-author of a history of The Buckhorn Baths in Mesa.
