This exhibit brings together Chicanx, Latinx and Hispanic personal experiences and achievements of faculty, staff and students at ASU along with artworks by NASA Psyche Inspired Creative Interns and Phoenix-based Peruvian artist Carlos Valcarcel. These individuals come from different disciplinary backgrounds across the ASU community and beyond. Their stories show the diversity of Chicanx, Latinx and Hispanic experience and why representation matters across the sciences and humanities.
In celebration of Hispanic and Latinx Heritage Month and Día de los Muertos, the ASU Library’s Community-Driven Archives Initiative is hosting a Papel Picado Workshop! Join us on Thursday, Oct. 12 from 2 to 5 p.m. at Hayden Library, room C55.
Papel picado is perforated or cut paper and is traditional folk art in Mexico that is often used in banners and altars for Día de los Muertos.
All supplies will be provided for this crafting activity. No prior knowledge of making papel picado needed, and all are welcome!

Come to Naturespace at Hayden Library to learn about some of nature's architects. Have you ever wondered how birds build their nests? Join us in Naturespace to explore different ways a bird builds a nest, and then build your own! Once you build your own nest, we will test it to see if it is structurally stable against a fall. Will your nest be as successful as birds' nests?
