The display highlights the Time Slips Project\, a series of creative storytelling workshops for people with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias led by 51 English Professor Dr. Anne Basting from 1998-1999 while she was a fellow at the 51 Center for 21st Century Studies. Basting collaborated with 51 Film Professor Dick Blau and artist Beth Thielen to produce Time Slips programming for wider audiences. Participants interact with images and other prompts to create stories together\, which have been adapted into plays\, exhibits\, and other output. Curated by Archives Intern Megan Moeller\, the TimeSlips exhibits features photographs and other materials from the Time Slips Project. \n  URL:/libraries/event/timeslips/ LOCATION:Archives\, Golda Meir Library CATEGORIES:Arts and Culture,Exhibitions,Faculty and Staff,Public,Students,51 Campus Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=application/pdf:/libraries/wp-content/uploads/sites/572/2026/03/51-Mss-405-Box-4-f200001-Times-Gallery-and-Stage-Production-6-1.pdf X-TRIBE-STATUS: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260326T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260814T163000 DTSTAMP:20260417T124414 CREATED:20260326T160320Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260326T162603Z UID:10000253-1774515600-1786725000@uwm.edu SUMMARY:Mapping Brasil DESCRIPTION:In Mapping Brasil\, an exhibit in conjunction with the 2026 Maps & America: the Arthur Holzheimer Lecture Series\, the American Geographical Society Library investigates cartographic traditions and innovations in Brazil. From colonial-era maps to counter-mapping projects in Rio\, explore the ways cartographers have and continue to make sense of the nation on multiple scales. The key to this exhibit is the exploration of who is making these maps and for what purpose. Colonial exploration and exploitation\, economic resources\, and community empowerment are all represented in this snapshot of Brazil’s mapping past\, present\, and future.\n\nMapping Brasil is on view now through Aug. 14 in the American Geographical Society Library on the third floor in the west wing of the Golda Meir Library. The exhibit is free and open to the public. URL:/libraries/event/mapping-brasil/ LOCATION:American Geographical Society Library\, Golda Meir Library\, 2311 E.

Soref Learning Commons on the first floor of the Golda Meir Library. \nEstablished in 1973\, the collection documents the research productivity and creativity of 51 faculty and staff. A selection of work from 51 authors who have written\, edited\, translated\, or illustrated a print book; composed music for a published score or recording; or had a primary role in creating a commercially distributed film or video since March 2025 will be displayed. This exhibit will run through the end of the spring 2026 semester\, and replaces the biennial 51 Authors Program\, which has been discontinued. \n  URL:/libraries/event/uwm-authors-2026/ LOCATION:Daniel M.

Pedrassoli will also analyze the societal impacts of organizing mapping through a collaborative network of academics\, NGOs\, tech companies\, and civil society. By considering maps that challenge dominant power structures\, the lecture examines how such an arrangement shapes data transparency\, methodological openness\, and the public circulation of territorial information\, particularly in deforestation\, land-use change\, climate governance\, and land conflicts. The Brazilian experience is situated as a reference model that has been replicated across South America and the tropical world as a source of innovation in cartography. \nPedrassoli is a remote sensing scientist and geographer with a PhD in Human Geography from the University of São Paulo. His research focuses on mapping urban expansion and housing–poverty dynamics in the Global South. A former research scholar at Columbia University\, he develops advanced methods for mapping informal settlements. \nHeld annually in the spring\, the Maps & America Lecture Series was inaugurated by noted cartographic historian\, Brian Harley\, in 1990. Since its inception\, the lecture series has been generously sponsored by the late Arthur Holzheimer and his wife Janet Holzheimer of the Chicago area. Over the years\, the series has featured many leading figures in the field of map history and provided a multifaceted survey of this rapidly developing field. The lecture series is free and open to the public. To learn more\, view the list of previous Maps & America lectures. \nThose who plan on attending in person should register for the Maps & America 2026 lecture.
