01 Mar '16

SB170 Columbus Day‏ is said to be voted on today Columbus Day is a celebration of Italian-American heritage month, not just Columbus Please call kaitlyn at the Senate office 801- 538-1035 The Senators are on the Senate floor and there Voice mail are full. Kaitlyn will take a message for them.Please give your vote of support to leave the name Columbus Day as is. That "Columbus Day" is the foundation for October, as Italian Heritage month in Utah. Please call, alsoKatiemarie HarmonIntern for Senator Christensen 435-851-7457 kharmon(a)le.utah.gov President Benjamin Harrison issued the first proclamation encouraging Americans to celebrate Columbus Day in 1892 — the 400th anniversary of Columbus’ landing in the Bahamas in 1492 — by taking the day off work to pay homage to the explorer and show “their appreciation of the great achievements of the four completed centuries of American life.”President Franklin D. Roosevelt issued a proclamation making it a federal holiday in 1937, after intense lobbying by the Knights of Columbus, a fraternal benefit organization of Italians and Roman Catholics. President Nixon established the modern holiday on the second Monday in October in 1971.In many cities, Columbus Day is a celebration of Italian-American heritage, not just Columbus, so it’s no surprise that Italian-Americans are among the most vocal opponents of the shifting focus.

Fwd: May 13th 2015 Forgotten Master Lecture Series
by Mama LaGuardia 11 May '15

11 May '15

>> >> >> Forgotten Masters Lecture Series Course Description - April 8th, 2015 >> View this email in your browser >> >> >> Micah Christensen >> >> Each week, a new lecture will focus on an artist or artwork that was once highly-regarded, but which — through the accidents of history or changes in aesthetics tastes — has since become obscure. Exploring each work within the oeuvre of the artist and the larger context of the period, the lecture will attempt to re-establish an appreciation for those artists who deserve to be remembered for their contributions. >> >> We invite you and your friends to hear Micah present his lecture series. >> >> All lectures on Wednesday evenings from 4:30 - 5:30pm, at the Beaux Arts Academy. >> Forgotten Masters Lecture Series for May 13, 2015 >> >> ABOUT THE SERIES >> >> Every other week we explore the life and work of artists who were once highly regarded and influential; but, who have since fallen into relative obscurity. The lecture is geared towards a broad audience — from those who simply love art to experienced artists and scholars. Each lecture is free and lasts about 90 minutes. >> >> >> COURSE DESCRIPTION >> >> JOACHIM PATINIR (Belgian, 1480 - 1524) >> >> For the next lecturing in our ongoing series, we discuss the life, work, and influence of Joachim Patinir , considered to be the father of landscape painting. A pioneer of oil painting, Patinir depicted epic scenes from mythology, history, and scripture in jewel-like colors and remarkably small scale. His works were collected by Kings and influenced a generation of painters, including Pieter Bruegel and Peter Paul Rubens. Yet today, we are only aware of a handful of works. Join us as we remember and celebrate his work. >> >> Joachim Patinier (Belgian, 1480 - 1524) Passing through the Styx River (c. 1524) Oil on panel. 25 x 40 1/2 in. Museo Nacional del Prado, Madrid. >> >> The school is located at 329 Rio Grande Street. If you go west on 3rd South, turn on Rio Grande - between 400 West and 500 West - then there is an alley, behind Homewood Suites. The school has a green awning off of the front steps. >> Park on Rio Grande, not the alley. >> Copyright © 2015 CLASSICAL TRADITION INSTITUTE {Beaux-Arts Academy}, All rights reserved. >> >> Beaux-Arts Academy Address: >> 329 S.
