SUMMARY:Dinosaurs: Land of Fire and Ice
DESCRIPTION:June 11\, 2022 – January 22\, 2023\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDinosaurs will roar into the Upstate South Carolina\, when the Upcountry History Museum presents Dinosaurs: Land of Fire and Ice. Crossing the threshold of this interactive exhibition means traveling back in time to explore the Age of the Dinosaurs.\n  \n\nDinosaurs: Land of Fire and Ice is the first child-centered exhibit in the country dedicated to expanding the understanding of dinosaurs and their habitats. Designed for young explorers\, ages 3-10\, the bilingual (Spanish and English) exhibit features three distinct sections that build on a child’s innate curiosity about dinosaurs: Land of Fire (a warm dinosaur habitat)\, Land of Ice (a cold dinosaur habitat)\, and a Field Research Station (complete with a Big Dig experience).\n  \nThe steamy Land of Fire\, present day Montana\, introduces visitors to the Triceratops\, T-Rex and the dinosaurs who called this environment home. Children can circle the land in insect costumes\, buzz through a volcano with oozing lava\, work through a swampy bog and identify an ecosystem of animals and plants.\n  \nNo coats are needed for a trip across the Land of Ice where visitors meet the dinosaurs who made their homes in the cold climate of Alaska. Activities include: climbing rocky steps\, breezing down an icy slide\, and hopping across stepping stones in an icy river.\n  \nIn the hands-on Field Research Station children and their caregivers don goggles and research vests\, as they uncover dinosaur bones in a dig station and examine fossils to identify dinosaurs.\n  \nThe exhibit builds on the popular fascination with dinosaurs and includes science\, history\, and literacy based activities to challenge all ages. Sculpted\, touchable dinosaurs\, featuring the most recent scientific findings about dinosaur colors\, textures and structural form create opportunities for young\nexplorers to investigate clues that the dinosaurs left behind.\n  \n\n\nBook a Field Trip!\n\n  \nSponsored By: \n \n                               \n\n\n

SUMMARY:Doing the Most Good: The Salvation Army in Greenville
DESCRIPTION:Doing The Most Good: The Salvation Army in Greenville\nOctober 1\, 2022 – February 5\, 2023 \nWhat started as a mission effort in 1904 under a tent at the corner of Brown and Washington Streets when The Salvation Army of Greenville began offering a religious message and good music to anyone willing to listen has evolved into 118 years of service to the community. \nSince its humble beginnings\, the organization continued to expand with a variety of services being offered\, many of which have adapted through the years and are still meeting needs today. This exhibition offers a look at the non-profit’s storied timeline through artifacts\, photos\, and materials from the local archives\, as well as The Salvation Army’s national archives. \nIn his book\, Way Down Beside the Reedy River – A Centennial History\, lifelong Salvation Army member Major Raymond W. Kitchen noted\, “Each succeeding year and change of command brought other and more varied programs to the Citadel on Broad Street and later\, to the other locations as the Army marched through time and the neighborhood. The Salvation Army is still at work today using modern methods and more sophisticated avenues of service to perform the same acts of loving service to humanity.” \nIndeed\, since marching into Greenville more than a century ago\, The Salvation Army in Greenville has remained true to doing the most good. \n  \n  \nPhotos courtesy of The Salvation Army Southern Historical Center\, Evangeline Booth College\, Atlanta Georgia

SUMMARY:Wild Things: The Art of Maurice Sendak
DESCRIPTION:“Let the wild rumpus start!”\nOctober 22\, 2022 – January 8\, 2023 \nThere’s room to run\, stories to explore\, and Wild Things to become at the Upcountry History Museum. \nHe was one of the greatest creators of children’s books in the 20th century – though he didn’t like the term “children’s books” and preferred “books that children like.” Author and artist Maurice Sendak upended expectations by depicting menace\, anxiety and “wild” behavior in picture books devoured by readers of all ages. \nThe Upcountry History Museum will serve as the only South Carolina stop on the Where the Wild Things Are national exhibition tour. Visitors of all ages will experience the fantastical imagination of Maurice Sendak as they explore over 50 pieces of original artwork and step into the pages of his beloved books. \nThe immersive exhibition celebrates Sendak’s life and work by showcasing his most famous pieces through preliminary sketches\, finished artwork\, and interactive experiences. All of this is told through the words of Sendak himself\, intimately connecting the artist to his art and stories. \nSendak created a visual language that has captivated generations of children. Although he sometimes indulged in lighthearted plots\, his picture books often had menacing elements: fanged\nmonsters\, baby stealing goblins and young protagonists placed in dangerous situations. Sendak intentionally gave children the opportunity to engage with ethical dilemmas\, to feel afraid as well as joyful\, and to take part in imaginative play. \nDuring his long career Sendak illustrated over one hundred books\, which continue to thrill and fascinate life-long learners all over the world. The fifty works of art in the exhibition will be accompanied by quotes from fellow illustrators\, friends\, and celebrities\, sharing their thoughts on Sendak and the ways in which he inspired them. As comedian Stephen Colbert stated\, “His art gave us a fantastical but un-romanticized reminder of what childhood truly felt like.” \n                                 \n  \n  \nJeff and Mary Lawson
