SUMMARY:The Origins of American Cowboy Culture
DESCRIPTION:Why are there rodeos? Why are there cowboys? Why are there horses in\nAmerica? Where did the word cowboy come from? The Stetson cowboy hat? Why were there TV shows like Gunsmoke\, The Lone Ranger\, and The Cisco Kid? \nThis fascinating presentation traces cowboy culture’s roots from the open plains of Spain to the establishment of ranching culture in the New World. Angel Vigil describes the role of the Spanish/Mexican vaquero in the establishment of\ntraditional cowboy and ranching practices in the west\, placing the historical and fictional lore of the origins of the American cowboy in the historical context of the vaquero\, the true first cowboy. \nPresented by Chautauqua scholar Angel Vigil.

SUMMARY:Nebraska Poetry Society Workshop: Brad Modlin
DESCRIPTION:The Nebraska Poetry Society is offering monthly Saturday morning online poetry workshops. Registration is required\, and registration information may be found on the Nebraska Poetry Society webpage. Free with annual membership; nominal fee for non-members. Students\, minors and others for whom the registration fee is prohibitive may request a free membership. \nA quiet painting of farmers except a tiny man falls from the sky. A poem with a commercial break. The childhood memory that lands on your head on your grocery store run. Some art insists the out of place actually belongs—as if it’s meant to be. We’ll explore such art\, fill some pages\, and build some creative bridges that may freshen our perspectives on the things we make and the days we live. \nBred MOdlin is The Paul and Clarice Reynolds Endowed Chair of Creative Writing and an associate professor. His book\, Everyone at This Party Has Two Names won the Cowles Poetry Prize. His Surviving in Drought (fiction stories) won the Cupboard Contest. His poetry has been the basis for orchestral scores\, a Brooklyn art exhibition\, and numerous speeches\, reflections\, meditations\, and podcasts. His poetry is featured in an episode of The Slowdown with U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón (American Public Media & The Poetry Foundation) and the premier episode of Poetry Unbound with Pádraig Ó Tuama (On Being Studios). He has been invited to read at the American School of Paris\, been commissioned for poetry by the art gallery of the University of Melbourne (Australia)\, and given the keynote at Philsophique Poetica’s World Poetry Conference in India. He coordinates the Reynolds Visiting Writers Series\, bringing writers from across the nation to share with us. On the other side of the equation\, he happily gives readings as the guest of other universities\, recently including University of Southern California\, Los Angeles; Monroe Community College in New York; Western Kentucky University; and Northern Arizona University. He likes laughing with his students.
