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:The Five States of Colorado Screening - Evergreen
DESCRIPTION:Join us in Evergreen for a free screening of The Five States of Colorado and an engaging exploration and illustration of the history\, culture\, concerns\, and needs of each of the five featured regions. Designed for a wide range of audiences from elementary school-age to adults\, this film addresses the history and issues within the five regions of Colorado to inform\, educate\, and serve as a basis for community discussion. \nThis Emmy Award-winning film explores how in 1861\, the U.S. Congress carved Colorado’s boundaries representing no river\, mountain range\, tribe\, or language group to enclose five distinct areas that are now Southern Colorado\, Western Colorado\, the Eastern Plains\, the Front Range along the eastern face of the mountains\, and Metropolitan Denver. Each of these regions within the state’s man-made boundaries vastly differs in terms of populations\, communities\, cultures\, communications\, and economies that have evolved from their varied geography and histories. Community conversation following the screening. \nThis event is a great opportunity to learn about Colorado\, meet fellow movie enthusiasts\, and support our local community. Don’t miss out on this exciting event!

SUMMARY:El Vaquero Chautauqua Performance - Pueblo
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month at the newly renovated Barkman Library! \n\n\n\n\n\n\nFree and open to the public. Refreshments provided. \n\n\n\nPresented by Angel Vigil: The Spanish colonial cowboy El Vaquero is a true American hero. He was the first cowboy to ride the open ranges and sleep under the stars; the first cowboy to tame the wild horses of the plains and deliver vast herds of cattle across great distances\, and the first master of the basic eternal cowboy skills-riding and roping. El vaquero was the repository of highly practical and effective Spanish wisdom and experience in the ways of horses and cattle\, developed over generations on the open plains of European Spain and New Spain in the Americas. His language gave us the words we now accept as common cowboy “lingo.” Diego Martín\, El Vaquero\, is a composite character based upon traditional vaquero stories and histories. His story is the living history of the origins and development of traditional cowboy practices in the American West. \nAn award-winning author\, educator\, and storyteller\, Angel Vigil is Retired Chairman and Director of Drama of the Colorado Academy Fine and Performing Arts Department in Denver. Angel’s awards include the Governor’s Award for Excellence in Education\, a Heritage Artist Award\, a Colorado Council on the Arts Master Artist Award\, the Mayor’s Individual Artist Fellowship\, and the Colorado Theatre Educator of the Year Award. He is also the author of six books on Hispanic culture and arts and his book on the cowboy west is Riding Tall in the Saddle\, the Cowboy Fact Book.

SUMMARY:Lucy Stone and Frederick Douglass - History Alive! Colorado West Chautauqua
DESCRIPTION:Lucy Stone and Frederick Douglass 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.

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.
