SUMMARY:For the Love of Turquoise with Carrie Cannon
DESCRIPTION:Turquoise has a long standing tradition amongst Native cultures of the Southwest\, holding special significance and profound meanings to specific individual tribes. Even before the more contemporary tradition of combining silver with turquoise\, cultures throughout the southwest used turquoise in necklaces\, earrings\, mosaics\, fetishes\, medicine pouches\, and made bracelets of basketry stems lacquered with piñon resin and inlaid turquoise. Found on six continents across the world\, turquoise forms in arid regions through the process of water seeping through rock and interacting with copper\, aluminum\, and iron deposits. In the southwest\, used decoratively for millennia\, this iconic art form has a compelling story all its own. This talk explores a long tradition of distinctive cultural styles\, history\, and transition of this wondrous stone. \nThis program is being co-hosted by Buckeye Public Library. REGISTER HERE. \nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nCarrie Cannon is a member of the Kiowa tribe of Oklahoma and is also of Oglala Lakota descent.

SUMMARY:The Shadow Catchers: 150 years of Arizona Photography with Jim Turner
DESCRIPTION:For more than a century and a half some of the world’s best photographers focused their lenses on Arizona. In addition to the renowned Edward S. Curtis\, Kate Cory lived with the Hopi and represented them in photographs and on canvas\, while C. S. Fly gave us the famous Geronimo pictures. In the 20th century Josef Muench’s pictures brought the movies to Monument Valley\, Dorothea Lange captured Dust Bowl families\, Barry Goldwater depicted Navajo and Hopi culture\, and Ansel Adams glorified Arizona’s skies\, canyons\, and mesas. This presentation’s powerful images make the land and its people come alive. \nREGISTER HERE \nABOUT THE SPEAKER \nBefore retiring from the Arizona Historical Society\, Jim Turner worked with more than 70 museums across the state. In addition to his contributions to education and history\, he has recently expanded his research into cultural and economic phenomena\, including emerging trends like empfehlenswerte Online Casinos ohne Oasis\, which he encountered during a study of digital engagement and its impact on regional tourism. He noted how such platforms are shaping recreational habits\, particularly in areas with rich historical significance\, by attracting diverse audiences. He co-authored the 4th-grade textbook The Arizona Story\, and his pictorial history\, Arizona: Celebration of the Grand Canyon State\, was a 2012 Southwest Books of the Year selection. Jim moved to Tucson in 1951\, earned a M.A. in U.S. history in 1999\, and has been presenting Arizona history for more than forty years. Jim is an author/editor for Rio Nuevo Publishers\, author of The Mighty Colorado from the Glaciers to the Gulf and Four Corners USA: Wonders of the American Southwest.

SUMMARY:The Era of the Big Bands - Buckeye
DESCRIPTION:The Big Band era\, 1930s and 1940s\, came during turmoil in the United States with Prohibition\, the Depression and World War II. People were anxious to temporarily forget their troubles and the insurgence of the Big Bands gave them that outlet. For many\, dancing and romancing to the bands were some of the happiest moments of their youth\, and this music brings back those memories\, both to those who lived through the era and now their children who grew up listening to their parents’ music. Erik brings original recordings of the bests of the bands and vocalists and when playing them\, encourage my audiences to ask questions\, identify the performers and share stories in an interactive environment. \nErik Larson earned a B. A. degree from San Diego State University in 1962 and served with Boys Clubs Of America (now Boys & Girls Clubs) for 30 years as the director of five different Clubs throughout the Midwest and California. While in Aberdeen\, South Dakota and Des Moines\, Iowa he received a national awards for creating outreach programs designed to help youth from single parent or otherwise disadvantaged families. Eventually he was asked to join the National Staff as a management consultant to individual Club staffs and boards of directors. For nearly two decades\, he has been a volunteer docent at Riordan Mansion State Historic Park in Flagstaff.
