Program Ideas Astronomy in Arizona What relation does Arizona have to the planets? Well, Percival Lowell, was the founder of the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff. Not only was he the founder of the Observatory, but he also formed the beginning of the effort that led to the discovery of Pluto 14 years after his death in 1916. The choice of the name Pluto and its symbol were partly influenced by his initials PL. In 1965, the Observatory was named a National Historic Landmark. Have a speaker come, or show a DVD about astronomy. There are numerous websites listed below that can help you find a speaker. Display books from your library that can be available for checkout.

Rephotography Project

Collect some old photographs of your city, buildings and streets in particular. They can be found in books, museums, libraries and on the Internet. Old photographs of city streets and roads in Arizona lend themselves to “before and after” pictures. Often you can find enough landmarks in the background to give you a good idea of where the original photographer actually stood. Sometimes you can even guess the time of day the original photograph was taken by looking at the sun’s shadows in the picture. Rephotography is easy and fun, especially with the large and increasing number of historic photos online. Get some copies of historic photographs of your choosing and go out to rephotograph the scenes. You get “before and after” and learn a lot in the bargain.

Mysteries Set in Arizona Mystery reading is extremely popular and a large number of mystery authors write in series. There are a number of authors whose mysteries are set in Arizona. There are a number of ways you might get your mystery readers to share their favorite authors of mysteries set in the state. If you have a book discussion group that meets during the summer, have each person read a

mystery set in Arizona, and when the group gets together, they can share their thoughts on the book they read. The library might create a bulletin board where readers can share authors and titles. Another suggestion might be to post a map of Arizona and invite readers to add the author, title, and setting on a slip of paper around the map. They can place a dot sticker on the city where the mystery takes place. Below is a short list of authors with mysteries set in Arizona: • • • • • • •

Arizona is filled with landmarks. Of course, the most famous landmark in the state is the Grand Canyon. However, there are many National Historic Landmarks in the state. Some of those landmarks are: the Awatovi Ruins, Fort Bowie, Grand Canyon Village, the Jerome Historic District, the Pueblo Grande Ruins, the Titan Missile Museum, Tombstone Historic District, Yuma Crossing, and many other sites in Arizona that have been declared official National Historic Landmarks of the United States.

Foods of Arizona Who doesn’t love food? There are numerous foods that are native to Arizona. These include prickly pear cactus candy, jelly, and marmalade. Like all wild plants in Arizona, the prickly pear cactus is protected by law, and its fruit and pads cannot be picked without a permit. However, you can find raw prickly pear pads (nopales and nopalitos) and jars of prepared nopalitos in specialty markets, on the Mexican-food aisle of some grocery stores and at swap meets. There’s also cactus syrup, mesquite honey, and agave nectar. Other foods include Navajo/Indian fry bread, Arizona cheese crisp and chimichangas.   You can invite someone knowledgeable about these foods to talk about them. Maybe the speaker, or the library, can provide samples of some of the foods and have copies of recipes available for attendees to take with them.

Vulture Mine

The Vulture Mine was one of the first rich gold mines in Arizona Territory. The mine, discovered in 1863 by Henry Wickenburg, yes, the Wickenburg that is just thirty miles up the road, was instrumental in the opening up of all of Central Arizona to settlement. The story of the Vulture is replete with stage holdups, Indians, rich gold ore, political intrigue and hangings. Much has been written and much is myth and exaggeration. A newly revised history of the Vulture Mine and it’s an intriguing story is presented by Gary Carter. [email protected] http://www.facebook.com/pages/DesertCaballeros-Western-Museum/167645033249614

Sharlot Hall Sharlot Hall Museum Located in Prescott, the Sharlot Hall Museum offers a chance to visit the past. Built on the site of the first territorial governor’s mansion, an 1864 log cabin, the museum is set amid gorgeously landscaped grounds. Visitors have a chance to glimpse the past while strolling through additional historical buildings nearby.

211

The museum has a living history program featuring staff and volunteers dressed in period garb. Visitors can learn first-hand about frontier skills as they are demonstrated. The brave visitor may also want to try his hand at these skills while listening to detailed filled accounts of events in the near distant past. Sharlot Hall, a remarkable and foresighted woman, founded the museum. She saw the need to preserve Arizona’s history and actively began collecting numerous Native American and pioneer artifacts. She went on to restore the governor’s mansion and use it as a location to display her collection. The Sharlot Hall Museum was opened to the public in 1928 and remains a favorite attraction to this day. http://sharlot.org/
