	Navajo Weaving: Diamonds, Dreams, Landscapes 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM In May of 2009, the University of Colorado Museum of Natural History will open a new exhibition entitled Navajo Weaving: Diamonds, Dreams, Landscapes. Presented in three iterations of 20-30 Navajo textiles each, the exhibit will showcase the breadth and depth of the Museum's Joe Ben Wheat Southwestern Textile Collection, considered to be one of the world's best collections of Navajo textiles. A full slate of public and school programming will accompany the exhibit, including a grand opening event; hands-on workshops for adults, parents and children; guided tours; movie showings featuring movies with Navajo directors, producers, and actors; and programs and demonstrations on natural dyes and textile conservation. Judy M. Newland, Faculty Associate and Exhibit Developer at the Arizona State University Museum of Anthropology is the Guest Curator for the exhibition.
	Weaving Memory: Monotypes by Melanie Yazzie 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM Artist Melanie Yazzie's prints are inspired by the textiles from the University of Colorado Museum of Natural History's Joe Ben Wheat Collection and by memories from Yazzie's childhood with her grandmother Thelma Baldwin, a weaver in Wide Ruins, Arizona.
	Americans In a Changing China: 1920-2008 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Documenting China, Contemporary Photography and Social Change is a Smithsonian Institution traveling exhibit. The exhibit encompasses three eras of change in China, which is a timely subject as China and its status on the international stage is changing so rapidly. Apart from Hinkley’s experience abroad, the exhibit also includes views of more recent change in China through an exhibit on loan from Bates College Museum of Art and the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service from April 11 to June 7, 2009. It illustrates the country’s development during the past 25 years through the lenses of seven Chinese photographers. For more information, please click here.
	Resistencia Visual: Woodblock Prints from the Oaxacan Assembly of Revolutionary Artists 10:30 AM - 5:30 PM *Extended by popular demand!* The UMC Art Gallery, located near the Reception Desk on the second floor of the University Memorial Center, presents a wide variety of art work from national, international, and local artists.
	A Christmas Carol - School Matinee Series 11:00 AM - 1:30 PM If you think A Christmas Carol is an old chestnut…if you think audiences can’t be thrilled anew by the greatest of all ghost stories…think again. In this adaptation by The Foothill Theatre Company and Philip C. Sneed, the story’s the thing that makes Scrooge, Tiny Tim, Bob Cratchit and the Spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Future come alive. It’s a tale of how isolation and self-interest withers the soul—a trajectory that can be reversed and redeemed only by embracing and contributing to the greater good. CSF Education offers special performances for school groups to attend our production of A Christmas Carol, adapted from the classic novel by Charles Dickens. These weekday performances are a great way to introduce students to live theater at a reduced price. The show runs approximately two hours (including intermission) and is followed by an optional talkback with the actors. A study guide will be provided to prepare teachers and students for the production. Appropriate for ages 5 and up. Click here to see all shows in this holiday series.
