This engaging two-hour experience offers a dynamic look at the major movements that reshaped the visual arts in the 20th century. From the bold colors of Fauvism to the fractured perspectives of Cubism, the dreamlike symbols of Surrealism, and the raw energy of Abstract Expressionism, we’ll explore how artists reimagined the possibilities of painting, sculpture, and the very definition of art. We’ll trace the story from the experimental fervor of early modernists like Henri Matisse and Joan Miró in Europe, to the postwar transformations in New York, where artists such as Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, Helen Frankenthaler, and Alma Thomas brought new vision, scale, and emotion to abstraction. This tour offers an insightful introduction to the artistic revolutions of the last century—highlighting how both well-known and trailblazing voices shaped the modern art canon. Guests are welcome! You’re encouraged to bring friends or family, regardless of alumni affiliation. Space is limited to 15 participants—advance registration required. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This tour requires a minimum of 4 participants to take place. If the minimum is not met, ticket holders will be notified 24 hours in advance and will receive a full refund. .......................................................................................................................

Trauma may disrupt the nervous system, identity, affect regulation, and relationship schemas. Traumatic events can also disconnect survivors from the various aspects of themselves as well as their community. Liberation psychology and theology can awaken conceptualizations and frameworks that center reclamation as a form of holistic healing and empowerment for child trauma survivors. While much of the individually-centered trauma literature focuses on skills-based psycho-education and cognitive-behavioral coping strategies, there has traditionally been less, although growing, attention paid to the diverse culturally-grounded, socio-political pathways for survivors to reclaim themselves. This presentation explores pathways that can benefit the trauma recovery process of children, especially for marginalized survivors. The trauma and healing-informed liberation pathways which emerge from the literature are culture as medicine, community support, spirituality and religiosity, expressive arts, and resistance. A more inclusive view of trauma and trauma recovery can both heal and empower individuals and society as a whole. false

While AI can generate vast amounts of text in an instant, how can we use it to truly enhance our writing skills? Where should we draw ethical boundaries for AI-assisted writing? And how can we preserve the authenticity, creativity, and “humanity” in our work in the age of AI? This September, Ben Glaser, Director of AI Initiatives in the Humanities at Yale’s Poorvu Center for Learning and Teaching, will join Heather Klemann, Senior Lecturer in English and Course Director for Yale’s introductory English course English 1014: Writing Seminars, to help you explore how to craft compelling, story-driven college application essays in the age of AI era - essays that engage readers and truly stand out. false
