“Afro-Indigenous Rhythms: A Bilingual Drumming and Percussion Workshop with Jonathan Alarcon”

April 18th from 7-8:30pm
Anderson Music Hall M2 Band Room

About Jonathan: “Jonathan Alarcón is a professional drummer in a wide range of musical styles, with his first love being jazz. He is well known as a session drummer and teacher and has toured in Mexico, South America, Europe, Taiwan and Japan with Hibridúz, the jazz band that he co-founded in 2005. In the last few years Jonathan has spent time studying and collaborating with the Garifuna drumming master Chichimán. His experiences in the Garífuna community have inspired him to become a spokesperson for the Garifuna and to highlight their strength and resilience in the face of on-going repression and social injustices. He is now sharing presentations in various universities focused on the importance of recognizing the unique characteristics of this afro-indigenous community.”

In this drumming workshop, Jonathan will lead participants on an exploration of the drumming patterns and unique characteristics of Garífuna musical styles.

Meal Train for the Department of Education

submitted by clarkk@augsburg.edu

There are no words to describe the passing of Dr. Jennie Diaz. The Education Department is working hard to support Augsburg students during this time and also grieving the loss of their beloved friend and colleague. After asking our colleagues in the Education Department what we could do to support them during this difficult time, a meal train surfaced. So, we created a meal train and thought we would share it with Department Chairs so different departments or individuals could have an opportunity to volunteer.

For the dates listed:

Tuesdays would be a meal for 8-10 people to drop off at noon (a fridge, microwave, coffee maker are available)

dietary restrictions: no pork, caffeine is split — two members are fasting for Ramadan

cold or reheat works best as folks teach across the full day and late into the evening

homemade or delivery is all deeply appreciated.

Thursdays would be dropping off dessert, snacks, or beverages (same details as above)

Also, anyone can donate gift cards for Grubhub or DoorDash — the Education Department could have the option to order in what they need as well. But they prefer to just have the food if possible as it is one less thing they have to manage with all these are dealing with. Thank you and we are grateful for your help.

Eclipse TODAY: Rain or Shine

submitted by stottrup@augsburg.edu

The Solar Eclipse is TODAY. Join us outside Hagfors Center on the patio from 1pm – 3pm to watch as the Moon moves in front of the Sun. Here in Minnesota, about 75% of the Sun will be blocked by the Moon, with maximum coverage occurring around 2pm. We will have several different Sun-safe viewing options available (weather permitting), including solar telescopes, eclipse glasses, a sunspotter, and more! If it’s cloudy and we can’t observe the Sun ourselves, you can still join us to watch the NASA livestream of the eclipse.

If you miss this chance TODAY… you will be graduated or even retired when the next eclipse happens in North America (August 23, 2044). Thank you to Physics Faculty Katrina Marslender and Steve Brehmer for organizing this event.
