Now celebrating its 80th anniversary, the Limón Dance Company has been at the forefront of dance innovation since its formation in 1946.

Experience the artistry of internationally acclaimed sitar virtuoso and composer Niladri Kumaar, one of the most innovative voices in Indian music today.

In Space Between the Notes, Kumaar honors his longtime musical partnership with the legendary Zakir Hussain through music inspired by their final recorded live performance together, captured in Mumbai and released as a landmark album. Hussain was part of UtahPresents’ 2024–25 season, but his passing just two months before the performance prevented the highly anticipated appearance, and this concert brings the story full circle.

Marriott Library
Week 7: Sculpt, Render, Repeat
This week we go deep into Blender, the free and shockingly powerful 3D software behind everything from indie animations to Hollywood VFX. It's the tool that turns the 3D printing and scanning you've seen earlier this semester into things you design from the ground up.
We'll cover three ways in: digital sculpting, where you push and pull virtual clay into whatever form you can imagine; rendering, turning your models into polished images with real lighting and materials; and procedural geometry with geometry nodes, where you build shapes with logic and math instead of by hand, small tweaks, wildly different results.
Blender has a reputation for being intimidating, but that's exactly why we're here to guide you in. No experience needed, just come ready to make something weird and wonderful.
Equipment provided. Bring your imagination, leave with new skills.

Jazz at Kingsbury Hall
He is “A beguiling saxophonist.” – Los Angeles Times. She is “A jazz vocal phenomenon.” – The Guardian. Together they are making magic.
Renowned saxophonist Branford Marsalis is a versatile performer, equally at home playing concertos with symphony orchestras and sitting in with members of the Grateful Dead. His main focus lies with the Branford Marsalis Quartet, a celebrated ensemble that, in the words of reviewer John Zeugner, is “casually confident...cerebral, and supercharged with energy.”
At UtahPresents, the Branford Marsalis Quartet is joined by Diane Reeves, the most prominent vocalist in jazz today. Reeves is best known for her improvisational skill and her one-of-a-kind R&B and jazz stylings. She made Grammy history by being the first vocal artist to win a Grammy award on three consecutive recordings.

Marriott Library
Week 9: Stitched by Design
Welcome back from fall break, we're picking things up with thread and pixels. This week introduces machine embroidery, where a digital design becomes a physical, stitched-out pattern on fabric. We'll work in Inkscape, a free vector design tool, using the Ink/Stitch extension to turn your artwork into embroidery you can wear.
Then we hand it off to our embroidery machine and watch it stitch your creation into being. You'll leave understanding the full pipeline, from a shape on the screen to a finished design. It pairs naturally with the sewing skills from week five, and opens the door to customizing just about any fabric you can hoop.
No design or embroidery experience needed, just bring an idea and we'll help you stitch it out.
Equipment and materials provided. Let's make it stick.

Marriott Library
Week 9: Stitched by Design
Welcome back from fall break, we're picking things up with thread and pixels. This week introduces machine embroidery, where a digital design becomes a physical, stitched-out pattern on fabric. We'll work in Inkscape, a free vector design tool, using the Ink/Stitch extension to turn your artwork into embroidery you can wear.
Then we hand it off to our embroidery machine and watch it stitch your creation into being. You'll leave understanding the full pipeline, from a shape on the screen to a finished design. It pairs naturally with the sewing skills from week five, and opens the door to customizing just about any fabric you can hoop.
No design or embroidery experience needed, just bring an idea and we'll help you stitch it out.
Equipment and materials provided. Let's make it stick.

Marriott Library
Week 10: Print by the Numbers
3D printing is back, and this week we're going deeper. We're running alongside a class meeting in ProtoSpace this week, so it's a perfect moment to jump in, whether you're part of that course or just want to build on what you saw back in week three. We'll have premade designs ready to print, so you can walk away with a finished object no matter your experience level.
But the real focus is on making models that make themselves. We'll dig into OpenSCAD, a tool that lets you build 3D objects with code instead of by hand — type a few parameters, and watch a design generate itself. Want ten versions of a part, each a little different? Change a number instead of starting over. It's a whole new way to think about design: precise, repeatable, and endlessly tweakable.
Whether you want to hit print and go or learn to generate your own models from scratch, there's a track here for you.
Equipment provided, no experience needed. Let the code do the modeling.

South African poet and novelist Mongane Wally Serote, born in 1944, was politically active against the apartheid regime. He was detained without trial and held in solitary confinement under the Terrorism Act. After earning an MFA at Columbia University on a Fulbright scholarship, he was barred from reentering South Africa, and he lived in exile in Botswana and London before returning to South Africa in 1990. A member of the African National Congress, he was elected to Parliament in the pivotal election of Nelson Mandela’s government in 1994.
Serote’s talk will commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the Soweto uprising in the context of his friendship with Steve Biko and other members of the Black Consciousness Movement, and will consider parallels to the Black Power Movement and Black Lives Matter Movement. He will also give a short reading from his work.
Serote’s work speaks directly to political resistance and engagement. His collections include Yakhal’inkomo (The Cry of Cattle at the Slaughterhouse,…

by Ain Gordon & Josh Quillen
“Gordon and Quillen balance humor and sorrow to tell us a wonderfully paced, colorful story that doesn’t feel devastating or superficial.” – Arizona Daily Star
Theater artist Ain Gordon and percussionist Josh Quillen’s moving new work blurs the lines between concert, theater, and memoir.
Inspired by Quillen’s family story, Relics and Their Humans journeys to his hometown of Dover, Ohio and explores the years following his father’s ALS diagnosis. Through a recorded interview, a personal journal, and an unexpected playlist, the performance pieces together a deeply personal portrait of family, resilience, and love.
At the heart of the work is an unforgettable tribute to Quillen’s mother, whose humor, strength, and unwavering devotion illuminate every moment. Combining live music, storytelling, and inventive theatrical design, Gordon and Quillen transform intimate family history into a powerful shared experience.

Marriott Library
Week 10: Print by the Numbers
3D printing is back, and this week we're going deeper. We're running alongside a class meeting in ProtoSpace this week, so it's a perfect moment to jump in, whether you're part of that course or just want to build on what you saw back in week three. We'll have premade designs ready to print, so you can walk away with a finished object no matter your experience level.
But the real focus is on making models that make themselves. We'll dig into OpenSCAD, a tool that lets you build 3D objects with code instead of by hand — type a few parameters, and watch a design generate itself. Want ten versions of a part, each a little different? Change a number instead of starting over. It's a whole new way to think about design: precise, repeatable, and endlessly tweakable.
Whether you want to hit print and go or learn to generate your own models from scratch, there's a track here for you.
Equipment provided, no experience needed. Let the code do the modeling.
