Libation Lecture: Natural Elements Narrate the Past and Present

Libation Lecture: Natural Elements Narrate the Past and Present

Presented by Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center at Colorado College at Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center at Colorado College

Join us for a lecture series offering an educational twist to the traditional happy hour. Each lecture will explore an aspect of the amazing art and featured artists from various Fine Arts Center exhibitions served up with a themed drink to help you dive deep into the topic.

This lecture coincides with Breathing into the past: Crosscurrents in the Caribbeanon view in the museum from September 9 - January 29, 2023.

Fabrics, corals, fruits and herbs connect the physical world with ancestral spirituality. Learn some of the ways we can look to natural materials to understand our current state of affairs and unearth buried histories from our colonial past and unfolding present.

This will be a multi-sensory experience where we will explore examples from the current exhibition, listen to music, and touch some of the natural elements that shape our sense of reality.  You may be called to dance, taste, or smell in ways that you have not done before!

Themed drink: Cuba Libre
