The natural History museum of Utah in Salt Lake City presents the exhibit Bug World from Saturday February 14th to Monday September 7th. Museum hours are from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Precision flight, swarm intelligence, mind control… bugs can do it all — and they’re doing it better than humans! Bug World is a larger-than-life exhibition that showcases the fantastical yet real-life abilities of bugs in an experience like no other. Featuring immersive environments and towering replicas, Bug World offers a mind-bending perspective on the incredible — but often overlooked — genius of insects and how they’re inspiring solutions to humankind’s most complex problems. You’ll never look at bugs the same way again! 

Ogden Contemporary Arts is proud to present RECLAMATION, an exhibition featuring artists Lani Asunción, Camille Hoffman, and Kill Joy, and curated by Kasey Lou Lindley. This project brings together Filipino/Filipinx-American artists working at the intersection of social and environmental justice, addressing Indigenous and land exploitation and its effects on diasporic communities.

Lani, Camille, and Kill Joy are influenced by Filipino-American relations, specifically the American colonial period in the Philippines, which spanned the first half of the 20th century and followed more than 300 years of Spanish colonial rule. After the Spanish-American War in 1898, the US purchased the Philippines from Spain for 20 million dollars, equaling about $1 per Filipino. This acquisition was accomplished through militaristic force that was part of larger US expansionist initiatives in Cuba, Hawaiʻi, Guam, and Puerto Rico. Though the Philippines was established as a US protectorate in 1935, meaning Filipinos were US nationals by law, they were not afforded the same rights or privileges as US citizens. US expansionism in the Asian Pacific region spurred widespread diaspora – today 4.1 million Filipino-Americans comprise the second-largest Asian American ethnic group in the US.

RECLAMATION seeks to create a socially-conscious space to reflect on US imperialistic history while offering counter-narratives that center marginalized people and stories. The exhibition’s three artists work to reclaim identity – through memory, personal history, and community activism – and to align contemporary diasporic experience with pressing socio-cultural issues.

he free, public outreach program of USU's College of Arts and Sciences. Our events begin with a brief presentation, and are followed by hands-on learning activities and refreshments. At our March 20 event: All living things, including people, face trade-offs. We only have so much time and energy to accomplish the things we want to do. Animals strive to reproduce, live as long as possible and defend their young, but sometimes they have to give up one or more of these goals. Queen bees, on the other hand, have lots of helpers that enable them to avoid more trade-offs than most other animals, and to accomplish more of what they want to do. USU biologist Karen Kapheim and her graduate students study the fascinating lives of social bees. Dr. Kapheim will tell us about the lives of queen bees, and will share what these creatures can teach us about evolutionary processes.
