SUMMARY:Road Trip! Light in the American West\, from Baja to the Yukon
DESCRIPTION:The photographs in this exhibition\, made between 2004 and 2025\, span across the American West from the Baja California Peninsula in Mexico to The Yukon territory in Canada. Paul Schoellhamer’s (Cowell ‘69) color photographs invite us to travel with him and reflect on our relationship to land\, the light that shapes it\, and the freedom – contested but essential – to move across it. \nThe exhibition draws on voices across time and perspective that frame the American landscape as more than a stage for beauty and awe. For Chief Satanta of the Kiowa Nation\, to roam the land freely was life itself. For N. Scott Momaday\, land must be “believed to be seen.” For Eliot Porter\, light and reflection imparted magic to Glen Canyon’s waters. For Wallace Stegner\, saving natural places meant saving fragments of our collective sanity. For Brook M. Thompson\, the Klamath River is recognized with personhood. Alongside these perspectives\, Paul’s images press us to see public land not as scenery to extract or aestheticize\, but as sustenance and history. Land is alive and contested. To see closely is not to linger on a romanticized vision of the American landscape\, but to reckon with responsibility: how we safeguard access\, how we imagine “wildness\,” and how we hold space for futures beyond our own. For Paul\, this exhibition is a call for students to encounter land and light firsthand and let those encounters be their teachers. \nOpening Reception\nOctober 4\, 2025\n1-4pm \n—– \nJoin us every Friday for Art Fridays.\nNo experience necessary. Supplies and snacks provided. \n\nSep 26 Snail Mail/Postcards\nOct 3 Souvenir Keychains\nOct 10 Stamp Magnets\nOct 17 Cyanotype Totebags/Pouches/Pencil cases\nOct 24 Candy Around The World Linocuts\nOct 31 Abstract Felt Collages\nNov 7 Phone Photos/Buttons\nNov 14 Travel Related Patches With Upcycled Materials\nNov 21 Thanksgiving Break! No Art Friday\nNov 28 Unexpected Landscape Surrealist Collage\n\nPlease note that the date and the project is subject to change.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: Shimmering with Matte Hewitt\, MFA
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Documentary Arts and Research (CDAR) and the UCSC American Indian Resource Center (AIRC) are honored to invite you to the Shimmering Film Screening and Q&A Discussion with invited Guest Panelists\, on Friday\, November 14th\, 2025 in Studio C of the Communications Building at UC Santa Cruz. \nSHIMMERING (2025\, 20 min) is an essay film poetically investigating creation\, extraction\, and second lives. Guided by the luminous figure of Hummingbird\, SHIMMERING moves through place-based ways of knowing\, tracing the entanglement between biological studies of hummingbirds and the rise of military drone technology. The film also features storytelling and insights from Mutsun Ohlone and Tribal Chair of Indian Canyon\, Kanyon “Coyote Woman” Sayers-Roods. Through interwoven narratives of land\, militarization\, taxidermy\, Native regalia\, the filmmaker’s relationship with their trans identity—and with a hummingbird they name Anna–the filmmaker learns about Central California Native Land and culture. Blurring the lines between documentary\, personal letter\, and ecological study\, the film invites viewers to consider new forms of kinship across species\, systems\, and histories.Gentle yet provocative\, SHIMMERING offers a multispecies meditation on knowledge\, power\, and connection. \nFollowing the film screening will be a Q&A Discussion facilitated by Associate Professor Selmin Kara who will be joined by the filmmaker\, Matte Hewitt\, a film participant\, Gizelle Hurtado\, and a film interlocutor Angel Riotutar\, Director of the UCSC American Indian Resource Center. With respect to Native American Heritage Month\, Angel will speak with us about learning as a non-Native person. How do we do so respectfully and with reciprocity?

SUMMARY:Korean Experimental Music Festival—Featuring the National Gugak Center and Del Sol Quartet
DESCRIPTION:The National Gugak Center—Korea’s foremost institution for traditional music—joins forces with the Bay Area’s acclaimed Del Sol String Quartet to offer California audiences a rare and resonant experience. The festival blends traditional Korean musical practices\, Western classical instrumentation\, and cutting edge music technology in the world premiere of a over 20 newly commissioned works by faculty and graduate student composers from UC Santa Cruz\, UC Berkeley\, and Stanford University. \nTwo concerts on Fri.\, Nov. 14 feature a first-of-its-kind ensemble pairing two gayageums—Korea’s zither-like string instrument—with a Western string quartet. In two additional performances on Sat.\, Nov. 15\, traditional Korean wind instruments—the piri\, saenghwang\, and daegeum—are transformed through real-time computer sound processing into a striking electroacoustic experience. \nThe festival culminates a two-year collaboration among the National Gugak Center\, the UC Santa Cruz Music Department\, UC Berkeley’s Center for New Music and Audio Technologies (CNMAT)\, and Stanford’s Department of Music and Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA). We hope you enjoy these concerts of new works shaped by deep intercultural dialogue and inspired by the enduring legacy of traditional Korean music. \n—\nADMISSION\n– Open admission/first-come\, first-served seating (no ticket required)\n– Free and open to the public\n– Doors are scheduled to open 30 minutes prior to event start time\n—\nFULL SCHEDULE OF EVENTS \nKorean Experimental Music Festival includes two-days of events at UC Santa Cruz\, each with two back-to-back concerts\, including: \nKEMF: Traditional Korean Gayageum with String Quartet Part I\nFri.
