SUMMARY:Museum on Main Street in Sterling
DESCRIPTION:Colorado Humanities will tour “Crossroads: Change in Rural America\,” a Smithsonian’s Museum on Main Street (MoMS) exhibit to 10 Colorado communities August 2023 to December 2024. The exhibit takes a broad look at the characteristics of rural America\, how an attraction to and interaction with the land formed the basis of rural America\, and how these communities and small towns evolve. \nThe exhibition opens in Sterling at the Overland Trail Museum\, 110 Overland Trail\, Sterling\, CO 80751\, on August 5\, 2024 and will be on view through September 14\, 2024 before moving to the other communities. \nAbout “Crossroads: Change in Rural America” \n“Crossroads” explores how rural American communities changed in the 20th century. Currently\, most of the United States landscape remains rural with only 3.5% of the landmass considered urban. Since 1900\, the percentage of Americans living in rural areas dropped from 60% to 17%. The exhibition looks at that remarkable societal change and how rural Americans responded. \nAmericans have relied on rural crossroads for generations. These places where people gather to exchange goods\, services\, culture\, and engage in political and community discussions are an important part of our cultural fabric. Despite the massive economic and demographic impacts brought on by these changes\, America’s small towns continue to creatively focus on new opportunities for growth and development.

SUMMARY:Frances Perkins and Cesar Chavez - History Alive! Colorado West Chautauqua
DESCRIPTION:Frances Perkins and Cesar Chavez step in to the future and discuss their life and answer questions from the audience in this Chautauqua performance. \nSince 2006\, a group of local volunteers have dedicated their time and energy to bringing history to life during the History Alive! Colorado West Chautauqua festival. Each year\, the festival brings in Coloradans across the Mesa County area to enjoy living history portrayals by nationally acclaimed professional Chautauqua scholars. Each of these performances then serves as a stepping stone for greater discussions during daytime events and evening presentations. In 2024\, we are excited to bring four national scholars to share more about the history of “Social Justice” and what it represents. The festival will take place September 13-14\, 2024 in the evenings at Colorado Mesa University\, and daytime events will be held at the Arts Center and Mesa County Public Libraries. \nThis year’s theme\, “Social Justice\,” will bring portrayals of notable Americans who have fought for human rights\, equality\, and the improvement of the lives of those around them. Features for 2024 includes Lucy Stone\, Frederick Douglass\, Frances Perkins\, and Cesar Chavez. \nLOVE RECITAL HALL\, MOSS PERFORMING ARTS CENTER\, COLORADO MESA UNIVERSITY \n\n6:30 P.M.
