SUMMARY:Kauffman Museum Strategic Planning Community Focus Group
DESCRIPTION:This spring\, Kauffman Museum will develop an action plan that will move the museum boldly into the 21st century\, paving a way forward in our rapidly changing world. Your input as a community member is essential as we work through this process. You are invited to join us on Thursday\, April 28 from 6:30 to 8:30 in the Newton Recreation Center\, Sunflower Room\, in a one-time focus group conversation open to the public.\n\nIn recent years\, Kauffman Museum has aimed “to foster learning experiences rich in artifacts that promote aesthetic appreciation of critical thinking about and reflection on the people and the natural environment of the central prairies\, with emphasis on the story of the Mennonites” (Board Approved mission statement\, 2012). We hope to build on this legacy with a strategic plan that will shape the museum for the next 3-5 years. Any and all ideas are welcome and will be appreciated.\n\nPlease join us on April 28!

SUMMARY:Sunday-Afternoon-at-the-Museum | “Decommissioned Missile Silo Sites: Reminders of Our Past and Future” by Nate Hofer
DESCRIPTION:Following a short business meeting of the Kauffman Museum Association\, World Peace Photo award winner Nate Hofer will discuss making photographs of decommissioned nuclear missile silos. Nate’s project included finding and traveling to the sites\, talking with landowners\, and considering why he takes the photos and whether he really is a legitimate photographer. This program is held in conjunction with the current special exhibition “The Magic of Things\,” a collection of not often seen museum artifacts including a Nuclear Free Zone t-shirt from 1984 when North Newton\, KS\, officially became a Nuclear Free Zone. \n  \nView the event recording.

SUMMARY:Fall Festival | “The Oldest Books in the Museum's Collection” by Mark Jantzen\, Bethel College Professor of History
DESCRIPTION:Kauffman Museum owns a number of cuneiform tablets that are over 4\,000 years old. These ancient writings provide insight into a culture that goes back to the very beginnings of organized\, urban life in Mesopotamia\, the ancient Near East. Hundreds of Bethel students have been introduced to these objects in the class History of Civilization instituted by Professor Keith Sprunger almost sixty years ago. This Fall Fest program will be led by Professor Jantzen (85’)\, the current instructor.
