"TEN PICTURES: A HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY" A LECTURE BY PETER HAY HALPERT


August 31, 2022

The ancient Greeks first discovered the principles of the camera obscura sometime between the IV and V centuries B.C. but photography as we know it was invented in the XIX century. The first “photograph” was taken by Joseph Niepce in 1814, however, it wasn’t until 1839, when Louis Daguerre and William Henry Fox Talbot simultaneously released completely different processes for capturing and holding an image, that we entered the age of photography.

Today, photography is a language that everybody speaks. We walk around with cameras in our pockets, in the form of our smartphones. Photography is the medium of our times; we instinctively understand and relate to photographic images, while contemporary paintings often require some kind of explanation and context.

How did we get to this point in less than 200 years?
We’ll look at the history of photography through 10 pictures (and a few asides and detours), running from 1839 through to cutting-edge contemporary work. Through this tour, we’ll examine some of the key issues that photography has dealt with, and get to know some of the most important artists who have worked with the medium.

Virtual Books 'n Bites - “The beekeeper of Aleppo: a novel” by Christy Lefteri


September 14, 2022

Join us each month for a fun and lively virtual book club experience!

We meet on the second Wednesday of the month via Zoom.

Email Sandy at SRivera@vailgov.com for an invitation to the monthly Books ‘n’ Bites.

Every morning, Nuri the beekeeper rises early to hear the call to prayer before driving to his hives in the countryside. On weekends, his wife Afra, a gifted artist, sells her paintings at the open-air market in the square. They live simply, rich in family and friends, in the hills of the beautiful Syrian city of Aleppo — until the unthinkable happens. When all they love is destroyed by war, Nuri knows they have no choice except to leave their home. But escaping Syria will be no easy task: Afra has lost her sight, leaving Nuri to navigate her grief as well as a perilous journey toward an uncertain future in Britain. Moving, intimate, and beautifully written, this is a story for our times: It reminds us that our lives can be upended instantly — and brings a journey in faraway lands close to home, never to be forgotten.

Kids Create - Marble Painting


September 20, 2022

is back!

Join us! on the third Tuesday of each month through the school year for a fun and interactive arts and crafts program. Appropriate for elementary-aged kids.

MARBLE PAINTING

Marble painting for kids is an easy and fun action art activity!

It’s not painting marbles, but rather painting with marbles.

Mix play and art by using marbles to paint colorful lines on paper. When filled with marble-painted lines, your picture will look like a gorgeous abstract painting!

You don’t need to reserve your spot but it's always nice to know you are coming so we can have enough material for everyone.

For more information, please contact Erin at EStege@vailgov.com
