Come to see gorgeous photos of South China displayed in Room 100, Helm Library. Turn right as you come in from the Java City.
An introduction to the exhibit says it all: “The vast yet inaccessible underground waters in southeast Yunnan Province represent the front lines of China’s fresh water crisis. Two openings in the earth, the Shi Dong and Nan Dong caves, where the Yang Liu River slips into and out of the shadows, mark the point where a fluvial region rich with surface streams meets an unusual geologic formation of soluble rock layers known as karst landscape. It is also a fateful human dividing line, a place where China’s challenges with water scarcity, land management, and pollution come into clear focus.”
The photographs are taken by J. Carl Ganter, and the exhibit is made possible by the support of USAID, the ENVIRON Foundation and the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars.
Well, I’m a little behind because of all the fun we had at The Writer’s Conference and Book Fest. What a great concert on Wednesday by Screen Door Porch. The crowd thoroughly enjoyed the lively mix of modern and traditional folk. And yes, another beautiful day so they were on the patio outside of Java City in Helm library.
Under beautiful skies in Bowling Green on Wednesday, New York folk band Benyaro entertained a large crowd at Java City with their hard driving sound. What a Spring we’ve had, great music and beautiful days. All good things must come to an end though, the Spring 2010 concert series is no exception. Join us next week for the final concert of the semester featuring Nashville rock & rollers Stickman. More about their music can be found at
