If you do not have a free ticket\, a designated standby line will be formed outside Elliott Hall if additional seating becomes available. \nIMPORTANT ENTRY INFO\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE EVENT\nPurdue University President Mung Chiang and the Purdue Presidential Lecture Series present the renowned cellist\, recording artist\, and humanitarian leader Yo-Yo Ma in a special engagement moderated by PBS NewsHour correspondent Jeffrey Brown. Through personal anecdotes\, thoughtful inquiry\, and musical interludes\, Yo-Yo Ma explores how culture can help us all seek truth\, build trust and act in service of one another. \n\n\n\nYo-Yo Ma’s multi-faceted career is testament to his belief in culture’s power to generate trust and understanding. Whether performing new or familiar works for cello\, bringing communities together to explore culture’s role in society\, or engaging unexpected musical forms\, Yo-Yo strives to foster connections that stimulate the imagination and reinforce our humanity. Among his many roles\, Yo-Yo is a United Nations Messenger of Peace and the first artist ever appointed to the World Economic Forum’s board of trustees. His discography of more than 120 albums (including 19 Grammy Award winners) ranges from iconic renditions of the Western classical canon to recordings that defy categorization.   \n\n\n\nYo-Yo was born in 1955 to Chinese parents living in Paris. He began to study the cello with his father at age four and three years later moved with his family to New York City\, where he continued his cello studies at the Juilliard School before pursuing a liberal arts education at Harvard. He has received numerous awards\, including the Avery Fisher Prize (1978)\, the National Medal of the Arts (2001)\, the Presidential Medal of Freedom (2010)\, Kennedy Center Honors (2011)\, the Polar Music Prize (2012)\, and the Birgit Nilsson Prize (2022). He has performed for nine American presidents\, most recently on the occasion of President Biden’s inauguration. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt sounds superhuman\, but it was just the opposite. It was fully human\, perfect and imperfect at the same time\, easy and difficult\, marked by attempt and reward. This is Ma’s skill. He doesn’t make his music something to marvel at. He makes it a gift. Created for you himself.

In Memphis Jookin’: The Show\, Buck choreographed a showcase of the dance style\, known for its ankle-bending\, gravity-defying\, smooth footwork. He performs alongside 10 highly skilled dancers and a DJ to a soundtrack that evokes the energy of the streets\, hallways\, and clubs where the style was born. Buck first turned heads during his interpretative performance of “The Dying Swan\,” accompanied by Yo-Yo Ma\, and a memorable spot in Madonna’s 2012 Super Bowl halftime show — and has now taken Memphis Jookin’ all the way to the Kennedy Center. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSHOW SPONSORS URL:https://convocations.purdue.edu/event/memphis-jookin-the-show-featuring-lil-buck/ LOCATION:Loeb Playhouse\, 128 Memorial Mall\, West Lafayette\, IN\, 47907\, United States CATEGORIES:Family ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://convocations.purdue.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/c-Louis-Ziggy-Tucker-017.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Purdue Convocations":MAILTO:convos@purdue.edu GEO:40.42508;-86.912651 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Loeb Playhouse 128 Memorial Mall West Lafayette IN 47907 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=128 Memorial Mall:geo:-86.912651,40.42508 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20230226T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20230226T150000 DTSTAMP:20260424T064707 CREATED:20220707T233000Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230221T170151Z UID:10000362-1677423600-1677423600@convocations.purdue.edu SUMMARY:Danny Carmo's Mathematical Mysteries DESCRIPTION:Youth Series\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSAVE 25% ON TICKETS!\n\n\n\n\n\nSAVE NOW\n\n\n\n\n\nGROUP ORDER FORM\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGrades: 2-6 \n\n\n\nIf you thought making your remainder disappear when doing long division was magic\, factor in a fun time for you and the family when math magician Danny Carmo (played by Caolan McBride) returns to Purdue with his Mathematical Mysteries.

From the isolation of her studio apartment\, she reconstructs his annual “Christmas Carol” puppet show–over a Zoom call while the family celebrates Christmas Eve under lockdown. But as Trudy becomes more absorbed in her own version of the story\, the puppets take on a life of their own\, and the family’s call transforms into a stunning cinematic adaptation of Dickens’s classic ghost story.  \nIn this world-premiere online event\, the Chicago-based\, world-renowned interdisciplinary performance collective\, Manual Cinema\, takes on Charles Dickens’s holiday classic\, A Christmas Carol\, with a visually inventive adaptation made specifically for audiences of all ages this holiday season. Purdue Convocations audience’s may remember their delight in Manual Cinema’s remarkable production\, Lula Del Ray\, at Elliott Hall in March of 2016.  \nEach showing of Manual Cinema’s Christmas Carol will be performed LIVE from Manual Cinema’s Chicago studio each night\, but you’ll enjoy it from the comfort of your own home.

Since that time\, Global Fest has grown into a premiere street festival that simultaneously celebrates the diverse cultures that comprise our community and articulates our welcome to those that live and study here\, all alongside an accompanying federal Naturalization & Immigration Ceremony. After the success of the 2019 event\, which included additional performance stages\, world-class talent\, the new International Night Market\, and lots of sunshine\, we had big plans for the 2020 Global Fest–which would have been our 25th anniversary. \nOf course\, hosting a large-scale street festival with music\, food and culture is not possible this fall\, but we know that our community’s commitment to the festival and the ideals it animates has not diminished at all. In fact\, it’s quite the opposite. To answer that call\, the Global Fest team has worked hard to design a new solution just for you: The West Lafayette Global Fest Care Package brings the spirit of Global Fest directly to your home. And importantly\, by celebrating this amazing program\, you’ll also support the return and growth of Global Fest in the future. \nWe choose to celebrate the unity in community.  We all #BelongHere. \nThe West Lafayette Global Fest Care Package will include: \n\nA colorful\, reusable tote bag (show your support wherever you shop!)\nA compelling Global Fest yard sign supporting our community ideals: #BelongHere\nA civics lesson guidebook that reviews the important civics facts\, lessons and frameworks involved in becoming a naturalized citizen.\nMusic download links featuring music from specially-curated global artists\n\nOrder your care package while supplies last or until December 31.

But an even more important transformation awaited in Montgomery\, Alabama as Rosa Parks\, an African-American woman\, refused to give up her seat on a city bus to a white passenger. Her protest ignited America’s Civil Rights movement and forever changed our nation. Through music and drama\, this production from Mad River Theater Works—which dramatized the Freedom Riders’ story at Purdue in 2017—recounts Parks’ life while dispelling reductive myths about her protest to paint a complex\, comprehensive portrait of her Civil Rights leadership. Exciting and inspirational\, Walk On: The Story of Rosa Parks shows how individual determination makes a difference in freedom and equality for all. \nPRE-SHOW ACTIVITIES | 2PM | STEWART CENTER LOBBY\nJoin the Purdue Black Cultural Center and the Girl Scouts of Central Indiana for pre-show activities.
