11 ECHOES

Location: Madison

In place of the 2020 Holiday Concert series you can enjoy a curated playlist of festive, local music on your phone while strolling the peaceful winter wonderland of the outdoor gardens.

During the month of December Olbrich Gardens is offering a GPS activated Holiday Song Walk featuring a mix of holiday classics and original tunes performed by Madison area musicians.

As you explore each garden area a different holiday song will automatically queue up and play over your phone/headphones.

Sunken Garden: Christmas on the Isthmus (Tom Kastle)
Event Garden: North Star (Beth Kille & Erik Kjelland)

The Black Student Experience at Northwestern University Audio Tour

The Black Student Experience at Northwestern University Audio Tour

Thank you for joining us on the Black Student Experience at Northwestern University tour! Over the next hour, you will hear stories about the fight for racial equity led by Black students at Northwestern. These are more than stories, you will hear about lived experiences of Black students based on archival documentation. For some, these stories will be difficult to hear and might not mirror your views of the institution. If that is the case, we invite you to engage with an open mind and with empathy. Use this opportunity to listen and learn. For others, this tour is about truth-telling. It speaks to a broader history of injustice and a fight for equity and inclusion. While it is not all-encompassing, we hope that this tour affirms those experiences and offers some historical context for the structures that exist today that foster equity and inclusion. As you travel between each stop, please use that time as an opportunity to reflect on what you hear, you can use the discussion questions as a guide. If you have additional stories and experiences that you would like to share, please contact the McCormick Library of Special Collections and University Archives, specialcollections@northwestern.edu.
