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> 2019-06-28 15:15:00 -0500

Art Exhibit: Cedar River Artisans
<p>Gilded Pear Gallery is pleased to present the Cedar River Artisans, a collective of Iowa artists interested in discussion between diverse subject matter and medium. Participating artists include: Dean Dunkel, Robert Fox, Nancy Lindsay, Marty Mitchell, Tom Newport, Elizabeth Rhoads Read and Lou Wendel.</p><p><br></p><p>The artists within the collective work independently to each develop their visual style; paintings, ceramics, sculptures, fiber works, and photography are featured in this exhibit. Variance between the works gives the viewer a space to explore and fuels energy in situ. Cedar River Artisans initially started as a group of artists who met weekly over lunch to talk about art and give one another support and advice. Over time, their gatherings evolved to a point where they decided to show together. The coterie has exhibited together across Iowa and beyond since 2011, and, as independent artists, received several awards and merits. Many of the participants’ artworks can be found in corporate and private collections throughout the Midwest.</p><p><br></p><p>Gilded Pear Gallery is located at 808 Third Avenue SE, Cedar Rapids, IA 52403.

Brown vs. Board of Education Anniversary Celebration with Cheryl Brown Henderson and Inclusive Teaching Awards
<p>Have you ever wondered what it was like to live in an era when Black children were not allowed to go to the same schools as white children? Have you ever wondered what it was like to have parents who refused to accept that? Hear from someone who knows the answers firsthand in this exciting program!</p><p>2019 marks the 65th anniversary of the landmark case <em>Brown v. Board of Education</em>. In <em>Brown</em>, the US Supreme Court overturned the “separate but equal” justification for racial segregation in public facilities that had been in place since 1896. Schools, waiting rooms, buses, even water fountains were segregated. Facilities were supposed to be “equal” in order to satisfy the Equal Protection clause of the 14th Amendment, but in practice they never were.</p><p>Dr. Cheryl Brown Henderson, daughter of named plaintiff Oliver Brown, will provide personal reflections on her family’s experience, the <em>Brown</em> case, and educational policy. Brown Henderson is the Founding President of The Brown Foundation for Educational Equity, Excellence and Research, and owner of Brown & Associates, an educational consulting firm. She has an extensive background in education, business and civic leadership.</p><p>Join us to hear Dr. Brown Henderson and to help the Iowa City Department of Equity and Human Rights recognize local high school teachers with Inclusive Teaching Awards for expanding upon the legacy of <em>Brown</em> by truly recognizing the worth of every child in their classes. A reception with light refreshments will follow.</p><p>Background reading:</p><ul><li><a href="https://www.britannica.com/event/Brown-v-Board-of-Education-of-Topeka">https://www.britannica.com/event/Brown-v-Board-of-Education-of-Topeka</a></li><li><a href="http://brownvboard.org/content/cheryl-brown-henderson">http://brownvboard.org/content/cheryl-brown-henderson</a></li></ul><p> </p><p>Sponsors include:</p><p>Platinum level ($1000 and above): UI College of Education;Silver level ($250-$499): UI College of Law, UI Student Legal Services, UI Community Credit Union;Bronze level (under $250): UI Center for Human Rights, Iowa City UNESCO City of Literature</p> 2019-06-20 15:00:00 -0500
