What's Happening on Campus?

Selim Center Lifelong Learning programs aren't the only events that you can take part in on campus! This is a list of other upcoming events and programs put on by our UST colleagues that Selim Center students might be interested in checking out!

• "What's in the Gallery?"
  Have you checked out the Sustainability Arts Gallery (located outside the OEC Auditorium) lately? This rotating gallery is a collaboration of the Office of Sustainability Initiatives and the College of Arts and Sciences Curatorial Team. The Sustainability Arts Gallery is an evolving, living space, continuously activated with new artwork, interdisciplinary research, and interactive activities. Through the integration of research, art, and experiences, this space seeks to inspire us to explore and deepen our understanding of and appreciation for the ecosystems that sustain us and our ability to care for our common home. Be sure to check out the new installation next time you are on campus.

• Transfer of Memory: Holocaust Survivor Stories from Minnesota
  Transfer of Memory is a portrait-based exhibition featuring the life stories of Holocaust survivors who made their homes in Minnesota. Through photographs and first-person testimony, the exhibit invites visitors to encounter lived histories of displacement, survival, and resilience—and to reflect on what it means to carry memory forward in a time when firsthand witnesses are disappearing.
