Srisharan and his graduate students make tiny earthquakes or “labquakes” in his innovative “earthquake machines.” At Science Unwrapped, Srisharan and master’s student Lindsey Broderick will share what they’re learning and how their efforts could improve earthquake forecasting broadly, and closer to home, along the Wasatch Fault Zone in Utah.

Community Art Day

Arts/Entertainment

Bill Albright’s Bear Series III – Teapot is a ceramic sculpture that blends the shape of a teapot with the features of a bear. With its rounded form, bear-like ears, and snout-like spout, the piece turns a familiar object into something unexpected and imaginative. By combining function with creativity, Albright invites us to see everyday things in new and surprising ways, showing how art can be both fun and thoughtful. Inspired by Bill Albright’s Bear Series III – Teapot, this activity lets you turn an ordinary teapot into an extraordinary animal! Start with a paper teapot cutout, then choose from a variety of fun shapes—ears, tails, legs, wings, and more. Use your imagination to mix and match the pieces and create your own teapot creature. Will it be a Teapot Turtle? A Parrot-Pot? A Bear with a handle? There’s no wrong way to create—just have fun and make it yours!

USU Opera: "The Abduction from the Seraglio" by Mozart

Arts/Entertainment

"The Abduction from the Seraglio"
("Die Entführung aus dem Serail")
Music by W.A. Mozart, Libretto by G. Stephanie

After his fiancée Konstanze, his servant Pedrillo, and his fiancée’s chambermaid Blonde have been captured by pirates and sold to the harem of local Ottoman lord Pasha Selim, Belmonte attempts a daring rescue involving subterfuge, deceit, and no small amount of luck. As one of only two of Mozart’s Singspiele that are regularly performed (the other being The Magic Flute), this work combines his musical brilliance with light-hearted comedy delivered in spoken scenes in a style presaging modern musical theatre.

Director: Dallas Aksoy
Conductor: Mariusz Smolij
Performances: Apr. 3, 6, 9, 11 at 7:30pm at the Utah Theatre (18 W Center, Logan, UT)
Performed by USU Opera Theatre students with the USU Symphony Orchestra in English with English titles

FOREVER PLAID
Written and Originally Directed & Choreographed by Stuart Ross

“Once upon a time, there were four guys (Sparky, Smudge, Jinx and Frankie) who discovered that they shared a love for music... Rehearsing in the basement of Smudge's family's plumbing supply company, they became "Forever Plaid". On the way to their first big gig, the "Plaids" are broadsided by a school bus and killed instantly. It is at this moment when their careers and lives end that the story of Forever Plaid begins.”

Community Art Day

Arts/Entertainment

Join us for a Community Art Day inspired by legendary photographer Ansel Adams and his striking black-and-white image The Grand Tetons and the Snake River, Wyoming. Adams was known for capturing the grandeur of the American West using only light, shadow, and masterful composition. His photographs invite us to see nature as both powerful and sacred. In this hands-on activity, you’ll create your own black-and-white landscape using black paper and white drawing tools. Focus on shapes, contrast, and mood—no color needed! Let the lines of the river or the peaks of the mountains guide your imagination as you craft a dramatic scene using only light and dark. We will be at the Farmer’s Market in Logan from 9:00 am – 1:00 pm.

THE OUTSIDER

But political consultant Arthur Vance sees things differently: Ned might be the worst candidate to ever run for office. Unless the public is looking for... the worst candidate to ever run for office. A timely and hilarious comedy that skewers politics and celebrates democracy."

But political consultant Arthur Vance sees things differently: Ned might be the worst candidate to ever run for office. Unless the public is looking for... the worst candidate to ever run for office. A timely and hilarious comedy that skewers politics and celebrates democracy."

FOREVER PLAID
Written and Originally Directed & Choreographed by Stuart Ross

“Once upon a time, there were four guys (Sparky, Smudge, Jinx and Frankie) who discovered that they shared a love for music... Rehearsing in the basement of Smudge's family's plumbing supply company, they became "Forever Plaid". On the way to their first big gig, the "Plaids" are broadsided by a school bus and killed instantly. It is at this moment when their careers and lives end that the story of Forever Plaid begins.”

The Fourth American Revolution: How to Create a More Perfect Union Out of our Polarized Politics

Lecture/Readings

Dr. Partrik Mason will address the question, How do we reclaim our politics from an era of fracture and polarization? By laying out steps: First, by looking to the lessons of America's first three revolutions -- the Founding, the Civil War, and the rights revolution of the 20th century. Then, by adding a healthy dose of peacemaking into our politics, we can all participate in a fourth revolution to bring about "a more perfect union."
