SUMMARY:Campfires: Munsee Woods (Selma)
DESCRIPTION:At Munsee Woods\, we’ll explore a half-mile natural trail through a mature forest and spend time in a renovated lodge. Situated west of Prairie Creek Reservoir\, the 48-acre Munsee Woods is a former Girl Scout camp turned nature preserve that’s protected by the Red-tail Land Conservancy. In 2011\, Munsee Woods became Delaware County’s first dedicated state nature preserve and has been used as a gathering place for education and outdoor recreation ever since. Munsee Woods includes majestic older woods\, wetlands and streams\, which have inspired a love of the outdoors in generations of Girl Scouts as well as visitors to the preserve today. You can learn more about the nature preserve here. \nThe trek will be co-led by a Hoosier humanities scholar and a naturalist from the Red-tail Land Conservancy. As we explore the landscape\, we’ll stop to read short works by nature writers. The trek will conclude with a shared discussion around a campfire. \nYour ticket price includes a campfire meal\, Upland Brewing Company beers and snacks for the trail\, in addition to any entrance or rental fees associated with the trek. \nWHERE: Munsee Woods \nWHEN: September 14\, 2024\, 4–6 p.m. EDT \nSCHOLAR-FACILITATOR: TBD \nTRAIL DIFFICULTY: Easy; the trail is unpaved with a slight rise \nTHINGS TO KEEP IN MIND \n\nA limited number of free tickets are available based on need; please contact Sam Opsahl at sopsahl@indianahumanities.org.\nDepending on the weather\, some trails may be wet\, so wear shoes that can handle the mud.\nPlease bring a reuseable water bottle to take with you on the outing.\nWe’ll send a final confirmation two days before the event with driving and parking instructions and any other updates.\nIn case of inclement weather\, Indiana Humanities will cancel the event and alert you via email at least two hours prior to the event start time.

SUMMARY:Black Quilters: Hard Topics\, Soft Blows
DESCRIPTION:Join Ligonier Public Library as it hosts Dr. Tony Jean Dickerson of the Advancing Racial Equity Speakers Bureau. Dr. Dickerson will present her talk Black Quilters: Hard Topics\, Soft Blows. \nArts hold a vital place of importance in our society. Quilts\, often seen as “women’s work” and “sheer arts and crafts” by some\, actually have a prominent place in telling the struggles and triumphs of many cultures. Moreover\, the African American community has fought to tell its stories and quilts have been used as an important vehicle to tell these stories. From individuals and guilds alike\, the artistry of African American quilters can no longer be denied as frontrunners of the quilting scene. \nDr. Tony Jean Dickerson (she/her) was born and raised in Indianapolis\, Indiana\, and has earned degrees from Lincoln University\, University of Central Missouri\, and University of Missouri-Kansas City. In 2019\, after a successful thirty-year career in education she earned her doctorate in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies from the University of Kansas. She returned home in 2017 and became the lead faculty for Martin University’s School of Education’s Teacher Preparation Program in June of 2022. Besides teaching\, Dr. Dickerson is a nationally recognized quilter and is a member of 8 local and national quilt guilds including the founding president of the Akoma Ntoso Modern Quilt Guild of Central Indiana. \nNote: This event is part of Indiana Humanities’ Advancing Racial Equity Community Read program.

The films are part of our larger Unearthed initiative\, Indiana Humanities’ multiyear environmental theme\, and feature stories from across the state told by Hoosiers highlighting their unique relationships with their surrounding environments. From the shores of Lake Michigan to the fields and farms of central Indiana\, the Indiana Humanities Unearthed Film Tour will provide intimate looks into the lives of Indiana residents working\, exploring\, and caring for the land. \nSee the trailer here: https://youtu.be/4GazqnQOJfQ. \nSCHEDULE: \n6:30 PM Doors open (Please note: early entry will not be permitted) \n7:00 PM Film screening begins \n9:30 PM Film screening concludes / Filmmaker Q&A begins \n9:00 Q&A concludes \nThis event is free and open to the public.

Please check our website and Facebook page (@INhumanities) for the most up-to-date information on health and safety protocols at this and other locations. \nABOUT THE FILMS: \nWORM LAND \nAbout the Film: \nIn Worm Land\, farmer Keith Miller champions sustainable agriculture\, embracing no-till practices and advocating for nightcrawlers – not the little wigglers. As he faces retirement\, he reflects on a lifetime dedicated to the land. \nAbout the Filmmakers: \nWill Wertz: Known for deep eye contact\, Will is a listener first. From documentary to fiction\, his films are marked by their thoughtful intentions. He is an Emmy winner\, national Addy nominee\, and film festival frequenter. Though\, you won’t often find him in the middle of those parties but rather he’ll be on the side\, in conversation\, mesmerized\, and listening. \nKolton Dallas: Kolton was raised on a farm where he fell in love with the quiet and often overlooked beauty of everyday life. With an Amish father and a hippie mother\, he’s patient and perseverant. Home videos gave him a way to listen\, computer science taught him how to handle the tech\, and in shooting skate videos he fell backwards into filmmaking. \nSYMBIOTIC HUM \nAbout the Film: \nSymbiotic Hum is a mesmerizing audiovisual poem by Jessica Dunn and Landon Caldwell that celebrates Indiana’s biodiversity through a series of artistic explorations. During the creation of the film\, the artist-filmmakers immersed themselves into the natural world by researching\, collecting\, and documenting as many native plants and seeds as possible throughout the year. Through a seamless blend of animation\, soundscapes\, poetry\, and macro/microscope videography\, the film takes audiences on an enchanting exploration of the natural world from new perspectives. \nSymbiotic Hum is more than just a film—it’s a call to reconnect with nature. Dunn and Caldwell extended their collaboration to the community\, inviting individuals to document native plants in the wild and submit photos to be incorporated in the film. Through this collaboration\, the film inspires viewers to take a closer look at the world around them and appreciate the magic that lies just beyond our doorsteps. \nAbout the Filmmakers: \nJessica Dunn is a multimedia artist known for her dreamlike worlds combining animation\, sound\, and physical installations. With a scientific curiosity\, she finds inspiration by investigating the natural world as well as psychological realms of consciousness\, incorporating research with experimental practices. Lately\, Dunn has extended her practice into filmmaking including short documentaries and narrative animations. No matter the format\, Dunn’s work invites the viewer to open their perception to explore new realms of reality. \nLandon Caldwell is a composer and multi-disciplinary artist in Indianapolis whose work examines environment\, family\, & class through the language of intuition and other hidden layers of reality. Through sound\, words\, color and other materials\, his work creates environments that redirect attention to the present and open new realities through the minutiae of the everyday.Since 2016 he has co-operated Medium Sound\, producing a number of the label’s releases. From 2017 to 2020 he was a co-owner/operator of A-Space\, a community-focused audio workspace. He has toured in the United States\, Canada\, and Europe and is regularly engaged with artists and musicians across the Midwest and beyond.His collaborative work expands into multi-disciplinary fields\, working with film\, visual arts\, sculpture\, poetry\, dance\, and more. \nFINDING OUR SENSE OF PLACE IN MADISON COUNTY \nAbout the Film: \nThe landscape in Indiana plays a significant role in the identity of Hoosiers\, especially the 20-mile stretch of the White River that flows through Madison County. For centuries\, individuals have utilized this Indiana landscape to contemplate and commune with the natural world\, positively impacting their psychological and spiritual well-being and bolstering their mental health and happiness. \nAbout the Filmmaker: \nJames E. Moriarty graduated from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1991 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts. During his studies\, he gained knowledge in art techniques\, liberal arts\, film\, and video production. As digital technology emerged\, James updated his skills and incorporated them into his professional work at Moriarty Media LLC. Over the past 20+ years\, James has collaborated with a diverse group of professionals\, each with unique talents\, to deliver a wide range of media projects. These projects include advertising\, event productions\, music videos\, TV commercials\, industrial films\, independent documentaries\, feature screenplays\, websites\, interactive kiosks\, and educational workshops. Since 2017\, James has been awarded a grant by the City of Carmel to produce the Carmel Film Forum\, which aims to provide an opportunity for filmmakers to discuss their experiences\, encourage those who want to become filmmakers\, and learn from professionals in the field. James has been happily married to his wife\, Ingrid\, since 1996. She is his muse\, business partner\, and best friend who supports him in all his creative endeavors. \nGROWN IN GARY \nAbout the Film: \nA classic Hoosier story of farms\, faith\, friends\, and community… told with a Calumet twist! \nIn a city dominated by a steel mill\, where a fifth of the built environment is abandoned and a third of all properties are dilapidated\, urban farming offers a welcome change to the appearance of the streets and brings new economic possibilities to the neighborhoods. \nDirector Raymar Brunson documents the movements of the growing season and the motions of Gary’s growers as they regenerate the soil\, educate the community\, share their harvests\, and reflect in their own words on what compels them to practice agriculture in the city. \nGrown In Gary documents a growing movement in Northwest Indiana. \nAbout the Filmmakers: \nSamuel Love is the editor of The Gary Anthology (Belt\, 2020). He is a social and civic practice artist who organizes public projects that connect communities to their cultural and ecological histories through publishing\, multi-media installations\, and performance.

He was a 2019-20 Indiana Arts Commission On Ramp fellow and Individual Advancement Program grant recipient. \nRaymar Brunson is a 2016 graduate of Wirt/Emerson Visual and Performing Arts Academy. As an independent photographer and videographer his talents have been sought out by local musicians and artists\, environmental groups\, and regional publishers. He has documented the impact of coal pollution for the Sierra Club’s Indiana Beyond Coal campaign. A photo essay detailing young people’s everyday lives in Gary was published by Belt Magazine and featured in The Gary Anthology. \nLAUNCHING THE LAGOON \nAbout the Film: \nHow one community project helped start a statewide movement. \nNestled in Gary’s Marquette Park the Lagoon Outlook Garden (LOG) is a sensory experience for people of all ages and abilities. “Launching the Lagoon” highlights a community project to showcase how private-public partnerships that source ideas from their citizens can become places of refuge and restoration. Gary has a sorted past when it comes to its greenspaces and allowing access to them. The fact that a garden located within the Steel City has ended up being seen as an exemplary prototype for universally designed projects across Indiana is a cause to celebrate. \nAbout the Filmmakers: \nGretchen Sipp\, Production Coordinator: Gary\, Indiana native\, Gretchen Sipp began her career with gaining hands-on experience in the marketing and business building space as well as in the computer and tech skill facilitation sector. She has also established herself as a respected graphic designer and multimedia specialist. Driven by her love for community and helping others build a legacy of self-sufficiency through creating their own livelihood\, she takes pride in providing the best business support as possible. \nFor Gretchen\, small business\, the arts\, and community are the heartbeat of a healthy community. Sipp is widely known for her business collaborations\, community engagement\, marketing and expertise in the fields of fashion\, art\, and culture. She is excited to be a part of this project for many reasons\, including her experience advocating for her daughter\, who is a thriving college student and a person with a nonvisible disability. \nJessica Renslow\, Director /Editor: Jessica Renslow is an Indiana based filmmaker.

SUMMARY:Confronting Difficult Histories in Museums\, Archives\, and Historic Spaces
DESCRIPTION:Recently\, conversations reignited around appropriate presentations of so-called “difficult” histories like white supremacy\, colonization\, and other racial injustices\, and how those histories challenge long-standing\, narrow\, or often inaccurate interpretations. This session dives into how museums and other memory spaces can and must acknowledge and host those difficult conversations and the important histories they can teach. It challenges the idea of them as “difficult” and asks guests to explore why we value some interpretations over others. \nThis session will be held virtually. A Zoom link will be provided to participants who register at the Eventbrite link above. \nGeorge Garner (he/him) earned his M.A. in Museum Studies from the Cooperstown Graduate Program where he gained experience in museum administration\, exhibitions\, and collections care at such well-known institutions as the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum and the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum. He has dedicated his career to exploring how museums and memory spaces can help people make meaning from traumatic histories and use history to work actively toward change today. Since 2012\, he has served the Indiana University South Bend Civil Rights Heritage Center\, a space that\, for thirty years\, operated as a segregated city-owned swimming pool. \nAbout the IDEA Learning Series – In partnership with the Indy Arts & Culture Equity Taskforce\, the Indy Arts Council is hosting its second year of IDEA (inclusion\, diversity\, equity\, access) Learning Series programming. Indy arts organization CEOs\, staff\, board members\, and teaching artists are welcome to attend for free.

SUMMARY:Black Quilters: Hard Topics\, Soft Blows
DESCRIPTION:Join Batesville Memorial Public Library and Ripley County Reads as they host Dr. Tony Jean Dickerson of the Advancing Racial Equity Speakers Bureau. Dr. Dickerson will present her talk Black Quilters: Hard Topics\, Soft Blows. \nArts hold a vital place of importance in our society. Quilts\, often seen as “women’s work” and “sheer arts and crafts” by some\, actually have a prominent place in telling the struggles and triumphs of many cultures. Moreover\, the African American community has fought to tell its stories and quilts have been used as an important vehicle to tell these stories. From individuals and guilds alike\, the artistry of African American quilters can no longer be denied as frontrunners of the quilting scene. \nDr. Tony Jean Dickerson (she/her) was born and raised in Indianapolis\, Indiana\, and has earned degrees from Lincoln University\, University of Central Missouri\, and University of Missouri-Kansas City. In 2019\, after a successful thirty-year career in education she earned her doctorate in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies from the University of Kansas. She returned home in 2017 and became the lead faculty for Martin University’s School of Education’s Teacher Preparation Program in June of 2022. Besides teaching\, Dr. Dickerson is a nationally recognized quilter and is a member of 8 local and national quilt guilds including the founding president of the Akoma Ntoso Modern Quilt Guild of Central Indiana. \nNote: This event is part of Indiana Humanities’ Advancing Racial Equity Community Read program.
