The Center of Southwest Studies at Fort Lewis College invites the public to a Summer Solstice Window Viewing & Sunrise Cyanotypes.
The event starts at 5:45AM on Sunday, June 21st.
From 8:45 to 10:30AM, a cyanotype class will take place in the courtyard. All supplies will be provided and both events are free.

Baked goods provided by Sweet 'N Cakey.

(5:45-7:30 AM) Join us in celebrating the summer solstice on Sunday, June 21. At the dawn of the solstice, a spiral of sunlight from the Center's solstice window makes its way across the gallery walls. Arrive early to ensure you don't miss the impressive display.

(8:45-10:30 AM) As the sun reaches the building, you are invited to join us in creating a cyanotype print in the Center’s courtyard! All supplies will be provided, but bringing personal knickknacks and small objects is encouraged.

The solstice window was designed to integrate with the building’s architecture as a tribute to the solstice markers of the Ancestral Puebloans of Southwest Colorado.

A Death Café is a group directed discussion of death; it is not a grief support group. The Death Café offers an accessible, respectful and confidential space where strangers gather to eat cake, drink tea and discuss death. Death Cafés are open to, and respectful of, people of all communities and belief systems. The model was developed by Jon Underwood and Sue Barsky Reid, based on the ideas of Bernard Crettaz. To find out more visit: deathcafe.com. Your facilitator, Lola Montano, has been hosting the Bayfield Death Café since October 2021. Lola is a hospice nurse at Mercy Hospice House, and a trained death doula. Lola volunteers for hospice and the NODA (No One Dies Alone) program at the hospital. She is passionate about demystifying death, in order to help people prepare for the end.
