Drumming for Healing at Prairiewoods
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Feel the Creator’s rhythm inside you during a drum circle. Join facilitator Sheri Mealhouse (Hawkwoman) at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) on the second and fourth Mondays of each month. In the cosmic experience, drumming touches us at a deep level and brings all creation together as a community. Especially now, when our external and internal worlds can be so polarized, communication that bears witness to creative love is very important. Drumming—and feeling the Creator’s rhythm inside of us—resonates with a variety of people. All racial, economic, denominational and other differences can disappear when a group of people share rhythm. As you prayerfully listen to other drummers in order to make music, the whole group becomes one! These drum circles take place monthly, and you may attend one or all. No experience is necessary. You are welcome to bring your own drum or use one of ours. This drum circle will meet near the pond south of the Center if the weather is nice or in the Art Room during inclement weather. A free-will offering to the facilitator will be accepted. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.<o:p></o:p></span></p> 2017-08-19 19:00:00 -0500

Gravestone Photography
<p>Photography is an excellent way to document an ancestor’s resting place as part of their life’s story. However, factors such as gravestone condition, time of day, and cloud cover are just a few things that can reduce the quality and clarity of your photos. This class will provide you with tips on how to take quality photographs of gravestones-even under less than ideal conditions. Individuals doing genealogical research and those photographing headstones for “Find a Grave” and other online cemetery websites will find this class very helpful. A “hands-on” session will be held at a local cemetery to practice the information covered in class.</p><p><strong>Please read: </strong><span> </span>Please bring your own digital camera, or smartphone with camera feature, to clas</p> 2019-03-07 21:00:00 -06003/25/196:00 p.m.Kirkwood Regional CenterCoralville -

Power and Protest: Political Photography and Prints
<p>American politics have been contentious for as long as America has existed. Drawn from the CRMA’s own collection of photographs and prints, Power and Protest celebrates the glossy official images of political power, the behind-the-scenes work to keep people there, and the demonstrations, marches, and rallies that spoke to that power. Power and Protest was designed as a complement to the John F. Kennedy exhibition and both emphasize the role art has had in shaping the political views of our nation.</p><p>This exhibition has been made possible by the McIntyre Foundation and the Diamond V Corporate Fund of the Greater Cedar Rapids Community Foundation. </p><p>Image caption:</p><p>Ben Shahn, <em>Martin Luther King Jr</em>., 1966, wood engraving, 24 7/8 x 20 1/16 inches, gift of Peter O.

<p>American Visionary: John F. Kennedy’s Life and Times brings together seventy-seven images culled from the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library, Getty Images, private collections, and the Kennedy family archives. The dramatic scope of Kennedy’s life is evident in these photographs—from his first congressional bid as a decorated war hero in 1946, his fairytale marriage to Jacqueline Bouvier in 1953, his run for the White House in 1960 and role as commander in chief, to the tragedy of his death in Dallas in 1963. These images remain as vivid evidence of John Kennedy’s imprint upon the American conscience.</p> 2019-03-26 16:00:00 -0500

Terra Nova: Ten Years
<p><strong>Terra Nova: Ten Years</strong></p><p>The CRMA celebrates ten years of collaborating with the Iowa Ceramics Center and Glass Studio. In 2009, the CRMA began meeting with artists who had completed residencies at the Ceramics Center and acquiring a piece of their work—often completed during their residency—for the Museum’s collection. This mutually beneficial arrangement allowed the artists to establish themselves in a museum collection and receive professional experience with curators while growing the CRMA’s collection of three-dimensional art. The exhibition will display artwork from every resident from 2009 to 2018 and both executive directors, a testament to the fruitfulness of this collaboration.</p><p>Image caption:</p><p>April Woolsey, <em>Ascending Blocks</em>, 2003, terracotta, 13 ¼ x 6 1/3 inches, gift of the artist, 2010.037. </p><p><em>This exhibition and accompanying educational programming have been made possible by the GreatAmerica Financial Services Corporation Donor-Advised Fund of the Greater Cedar Rapids Community Foundation.

Brucemore Mansion Tours
<p>A visit to Brucemore explores more than 130 years of Eastern Iowa history through the lives of the three families who called Brucemore home—the Sinclairs, the Douglases, and the Halls. They were business and community leaders during a century of evolution in the Midwest. The changes they made to their estate, the impact they had on their community, and the stories they left behind shape our understanding of modern Cedar Rapids, eastern Iowa, and the American Midwest.</p><p><br></p><p>Mansion tours are offered March through December, Wednesday through Sunday. Inquire for times within the general visiting hours. Tickets can be purchased online, over the phone, or in the visitor center. Advance ticket purchase is recommended as tours sell-out, especially during periods of high demand. Admission fees vary by tour selection, season, and ticket type. </p> 2019-03-27 15:15:00 -0500
