Thank you to everyone who came to Monica Raphael's quillwork talk and demo! It was amazing to hear from an award-winning Anishinaabe-Lakota artist, knowledge keeper, and fifth-generation quill worker. You packed the Commons, and we couldn't be more grateful for such a turnout. We hope everyone learned a lot and enjoyed the food! taken in Michigan State University Museum by @msumuseum

For the "Reality Check" exhibition, Sarah Sweeney created these six conversations to explore different forms of remembering her father, who died thirty years ago. Each conversation is based on a different source of information. Drawing from memories shared by family, mediums, therapists, and, in one instance, an AI chatbot, Sarah scripted this series of dialogues.
All photos used in the video are from the exhibit. Learn more at museum.msu.edu. @sarahelizabethsweeney taken in Michigan State University Museum by @msumuseum

Tomorrow and Wednesday, visit the Benefactors Plaza on MSU's campus to see “Bearing Witness,” a New York Times pop-up exhibition celebrating 175 years of photojournalism at The Times. The exhibition will be on view each day from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

“Bearing Witness” brings together noteworthy photojournalism documenting the difficult, important eyewitness reporting required to unearth the facts and bear witness to some of the biggest moments of our time.

There's a mystery brewing at the MSU Museum...can you solve it? 🔍️
Grab your friends and put your detective skills to the test during Mystery at the MSU Museum. Explore the Museum after DARK as you follow clues, solve puzzles, uncover hidden details, and work your way toward cracking the case. Part of our popular UNWIND series, don't miss this escape-room-style event with pizza! Link in bio. On an orange gradient background, abstract shapes spell out “UNWIND” while the same text repeats at the top. White text underneath reads “Mystery at the MSU Museum. 10/02 from 7-9 PM at the MSU Museum.” A half-tone illustration of a young woman with stylized hair holds a magnifying glass up to her eye. A stylized vector icon of an eye outlined in white peers out from the magnifying glass. by @msumuseum
