salt 17: Adama Delphine Fawundu

Utah Museum of Fine Arts (UMFA) This exhibition is on view September 13, 2025–June 14, 2026. Visit umfa.utah.edu for Museum hours. Adama Delphine Fawundu is a New York-based artist of Mende, Krim, Bamileke, and Bubi descent. Her practice embodies ancestral memory across space and time, reconnecting places, objects, plants, animals, and spirits of the global African diaspora.

By drawing together materials from Congo, Brazil, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Nigeria, Malta, Cuba, and the United States, Fawundu stitches together a collective history of the African diaspora that imagines a more interconnected future. Her work is displayed in conversation with objects from the UMFA’s African art collection, which were selected by the artist for their resonance with her practice.

salt 17: Adama Delphine Fawundu

Utah Museum of Fine Arts (UMFA) This exhibition is on view September 13, 2025–June 14, 2026. Visit umfa.utah.edu for Museum hours. Adama Delphine Fawundu is a New York-based artist of Mende, Krim, Bamileke, and Bubi descent. Her practice embodies ancestral memory across space and time, reconnecting places, objects, plants, animals, and spirits of the global African diaspora. The works in this exhibition were made with a process that Fawundu calls “kpoto patchwok,” a combination of the Mende word for gathering fruits and nuts for communal nourishment (kpoto) and the Krio word for piecing together textiles (patchwok). By drawing together materials from Congo, Brazil, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Nigeria, Malta, Cuba, and the United States, Fawundu stitches together a collective history of the African diaspora that imagines a more interconnected future. Her work is displayed in conversation with objects from the UMFA’s African art collection, which were selected by the artist for their resonance with her practice.

Hugo Rossi Lecture Series: Reimagining Education in an AI Era, featuring Dr. Tingting Li

Mining Engineering Hugo Rossi Lecture Series, featuring Dr. Tingting Li, Assistant Professor of Science Education at Washington State University Reimagining Education in an AI Era: A Journey of Collaboration, Reflection and Possibility We are living in a time when artificial intelligence is transforming how we teach, learn, and make sense of the world. As an early career researcher and science educator, I have been learning alongside teachers, students, and collaborators from Microsoft and K–12 school districts to explore what these changes mean for education. Working closely with rural communities in the Pacific Northwest, I have come to see AI not only as a tool but also as a mirror that helps us reflect on who we are as educators and what we value in teaching and learning. In this talk, I will share stories and experiences from this journey. How collaboration across research, industry, and schools has invited me to reconsider my role, my assumptions, and the meaning of equity in education.

salt 17: Adama Delphine Fawundu

Utah Museum of Fine Arts (UMFA) This exhibition is on view September 13, 2025–June 14, 2026. Visit umfa.utah.edu for Museum hours. Adama Delphine Fawundu is a New York-based artist of Mende, Krim, Bamileke, and Bubi descent. Her practice embodies ancestral memory across space and time, reconnecting places, objects, plants, animals, and spirits of the global African diaspora. The works in this exhibition were made with a process that Fawundu calls “kpoto patchwok,” a combination of the Mende word for gathering fruits and nuts for communal nourishment (kpoto) and the Krio word for piecing together textiles (patchwok). By drawing together materials from Congo, Brazil, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Nigeria, Malta, Cuba, and the United States, Fawundu stitches together a collective history of the African diaspora that imagines a more interconnected future. Her work is displayed in conversation with objects from the UMFA’s African art collection, which were selected by the artist for their resonance with her practice.

Utah Museum of Fine Arts (UMFA) This exhibition is on view September 13, 2025–June 14, 2026. Visit umfa.utah.edu for Museum hours. Adama Delphine Fawundu is a New York-based artist of Mende, Krim, Bamileke, and Bubi descent. Her practice embodies ancestral memory across space and time, reconnecting places, objects, plants, animals, and spirits of the global African diaspora.

By drawing together materials from Congo, Brazil, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Nigeria, Malta, Cuba, and the United States, Fawundu stitches together a collective history of the African diaspora that imagines a more interconnected future. Her work is displayed in conversation with objects from the UMFA’s African art collection, which were selected by the artist for their resonance with her practice.

Noises Off (Pioneer Theatre Company) [U Arts Pass Event]

Pioneer Theatre Company Noises Off by Michael Frayn Directed by Shelley Butler December 5–20, 2025 Simmons Pioneer Memorial Theatre Play A Hilarious Love Letter to Theatre… and a Delightful Disaster, There’s no business like show business? Often hailed as one of the greatest farces ever written, Noises Off sees onstage antics collide with backstage hijinx—in a zany tribute to “theatre-people” everywhere. And as hard as it may be to believe, Noises Off has not been seen at PTC for nearly 20 years! Join us this holiday season for a healthy dose of slamming doors, backstage drama, and a rogue plate of sardines. This brilliantly-crafted comedy delivers non-stop laughter and classic theatrical mayhem! “The most dexterously realized comedy ever about putting on a comedy. A spectacularly funny, peerless backstage farce. This dizzy, well-known romp is a festival of delirium.” —The New York Times. Event Categories: Theatre. U Arts Pass. Music.

Utah Museum of Fine Arts (UMFA) This exhibition is on view September 13, 2025–June 14, 2026. Visit umfa.utah.edu for Museum hours. Adama Delphine Fawundu is a New York-based artist of Mende, Krim, Bamileke, and Bubi descent. Her practice embodies ancestral memory across space and time, reconnecting places, objects, plants, animals, and spirits of the global African diaspora. The works in this exhibition were made with a process that Fawundu calls “kpoto patchwok,” a combination of the Mende word for gathering fruits and nuts for communal nourishment (kpoto) and the Krio word for piecing together textiles (patchwok). By drawing together materials from Congo, Brazil, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Nigeria, Malta, Cuba, and the United States, Fawundu stitches together a collective history of the African diaspora that imagines a more interconnected future. Her work is displayed in conversation with objects from the UMFA’s African art collection, which were selected by the artist for their resonance with her practice.
