The Day After Tomorrow: Art in Response to Turmoil and Hope
Exhibition
Our new reality is profoundly different than it was six months ago. Curated amid pandemic and protests, "The Day After Tomorrow: Art in Response to Turmoil and Hope" explores how artists respond to crisis, offering parallels to our own emotions and experiences this year.
"The Day After Tomorrow" is divided into three themes. "A Better Tomorrow" focuses on transcendence, alternate realities, the divine, afterlife, and bliss. "A Worse Yesterday" comprises works of art that address events that have shaken the world and thrown it into crises such as world wars, nuclear proliferation, AIDS, genocide, racism, and immigration. "Awry Ecosystem" focuses on art by artists concerned with the environment and how humans are changing it.
Also included is a Community Response Space, which will feature rotating exhibitions of work by local artists and where you can share your personal journey through an interactive display.

Hansen Seminar: Amy Rosenzweig
Lecture/Readings
Methane emissions, which are among the most potent greenhouse gases, are a critical concern because of their ability to absorb the sun’s heat and warm the Earth’s atmosphere. Bioinorganic chemist Amy Rosenzweig says methanotrophic bacteria, commonly found in soils, wetlands and marshes, use copper from the environment to convert harmful methane into useful energy and chemicals.
Rosenzweig, Weinberg Family Distinguished Professor of Life Sciences at Illinois’ Northwestern University, discusses this process as featured speaker for USU's 2020 R. Gaurth Hansen Seminar series, Wednesday Dec. 2. She presents “Biological Methane Oxidation” at 4 p.m. Mountain via Zoom. Hosted by USU’s Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, the lecture is open to all. For Zoom access information, visit: https://chem.usu.edu/seminars/index
Rosenzweig is the 13th annual Hansen Seminar speaker. The seminar series honors the late R. Gaurth Hansen (1920-2002), a renowned USU professor, researcher and administrator.

Join us for a pay-what-you-wish, interactive introduction to mindfulness with managing director of Mindfulness Utah, Anna Smyth!
Research has shown that mindfulness and time in nature enhance mental clarity, creativity, focus, and attention to detail in addition to reducing stress and stress-related illness. During this challenging time for our community, mindfulness can play a critical role—allowing us to awaken to the healing beauty of nature, even when things are hard.

The Day After Tomorrow: Art in Response to Turmoil and Hope
Exhibition
Our new reality is profoundly different than it was six months ago. Curated amid pandemic and protests, "The Day After Tomorrow: Art in Response to Turmoil and Hope" explores how artists respond to crisis, offering parallels to our own emotions and experiences this year.
"The Day After Tomorrow" is divided into three themes. "A Better Tomorrow" focuses on transcendence, alternate realities, the divine, afterlife, and bliss. "A Worse Yesterday" comprises works of art that address events that have shaken the world and thrown it into crises such as world wars, nuclear proliferation, AIDS, genocide, racism, and immigration. "Awry Ecosystem" focuses on art by artists concerned with the environment and how humans are changing it.
Also included is a Community Response Space, which will feature rotating exhibitions of work by local artists and where you can share your personal journey through an interactive display.
Women, Surrealism, and Abstraction
Exhibition
During the 20th century, art made by women was often overlooked or dismissed by museums, collectors, and art historians. Featuring work by 46 artists, "Women, Surrealism, and Abstraction" attempts to present a more holistic and complex view of art history—one that highlights artwork by women pushing beyond societal expectations and creative limitations through Surrealism and abstraction. Also featured alongside the art are 16 poems written by women in the Cache Valley literary community.
African American Art, Social Justice, and Identity: Works by Black Artists from the NEHMA Collection
Exhibition
"African American Art, Social Justice and Identity" addresses Black identity in the United States through works of art by ten African American artists and ephemera from collectives including the Black Panthers, spanning 1887-1989. Sourced from the NEHMA collection, these artworks provide compelling visual form to racism, discrimination, and inequality.
To Teach is to Learn Twice by Dan Holland
Workshop/Training
As Joseph Joubert affirmed, “to teach is to learn twice.” Exceptional teaching necessitates continuous learning of the “what” and the “how” of instruction. Teachers spend much of their time mastering their understanding of their chosen field by researching theories and applications. However, of equal importance, teachers must persistently learn how to guide students through the learning process.
The Learn Twice initiative was conceived and instigated in the Huntsman School of Business in 2017. The purpose of Learn Twice is to develop a learning community that will assist faculty in discovering and refining the “how” of teaching. This is accomplished by encouraging collaboration, sharing, and innovation among teachers, students, and other stakeholders.
In this seminar, we will discuss the Learn Twice initiative in the context of how we may strengthen learning communities at Utah State University.

Women, Surrealism, and Abstraction
Exhibition
During the 20th century, art made by women was often overlooked or dismissed by museums, collectors, and art historians. Featuring work by 46 artists, "Women, Surrealism, and Abstraction" attempts to present a more holistic and complex view of art history—one that highlights artwork by women pushing beyond societal expectations and creative limitations through Surrealism and abstraction. Also featured alongside the art are 16 poems written by women in the Cache Valley literary community.
