As part of this semester’s International Education Week celebrations, the Office of International Education invites all Mavericks to submit a photograph entry to be featured in the global photo exhibition, See the Unseen. This exhibition focuses on showcasing the often-overlooked elements of culture and community that shape the world around us.Student submissions will be assessed by a panel of judges, and prizes will be awarded to first- and second-place student entries in three different themes.Maverick community members may submit one photo per category for consideration across any of the following categories:Intercultural Immersion: Captures moments where individuals are immersed in the culture of their host country (U.S. or abroad). Photos might showcase students engaging in everyday activities that reflect the unique aspects of the host country's culture, or participating in local events, traditions, or festivals. Photos may also capture a moment or scene, which creates a culturally immersive or -reflective experience for the viewer.Culture & Landscapes: Highlight the natural beauty and landscapes of host country locations (U.S. or abroad). Participants can submit photographs of landscapes, environments, iconic landmarks, scenic vistas, or natural wonders that play a significant role in shaping the host culture. Examples include images of geographic formations tied to cultural myths, or landscapes which impact the current economic and cultural circumstances of a host community.Cultural Crossings: Photos that capture the interactions and connections between people from different cultures OR photos which illustrate the ways that cross-cultural trade and culture exchange impacts daily life in the host culture. Photos might include moments of cross-cultural friendship and collaboration between people, or scenes which represent an example of the mixing point of multiple cultures in the environment or in an object in the host country (U.S. or abroad).We welcome Mavericks of any and all US- and international experiences to participate - photos from your travel to visit family, study abroad, volunteer, or sightsee in a country different from your own are equally welcome.Submissions will be accepted through October 31!

Dance and public performance are two elements of human society that span across all cultures and peoples of the globe. This system of cultural expression often consists of detailed choreography and elaborate costumes, uniting our communities through shared connections and ritual presentation.For Latin America, dance is interwoven throughout the tapestry of their historical traditions. Beginning with the indigenous cultures of the Aztec, Inca, Maya, and Olmec, their celebratory carnivals and festivals evolved under the influence of European and African dance traditions to incorporate not only celebrational experiences but also used for expressions of faith, mourning, and even resistance.On view for the fall 2025 semester are a series of vibrantly painted and intricately decorated masks and dance costumes from Bolivia, Guatemala, and Mexico. They represent Latin America’s wide breadth of historical dance and parade traditions, ranging from the Bailé de los Animales to the annual Carnaval.Please join us throughout the semester to celebrate these works and their expressions of beauty, creativity, and connection through dance.It will be open Monday, September 8 – Thursday, November 20; 9am – 5pm. Visual Resource Collections and Gallery, Ste. 2109, Fine Arts Building, 2nd floor.
