Loren Eiseley: Haunted by Ghosts from Colorado's Ice Age will be presented from 6-7:30 pm Thursday, Feb. 13, at the Global Village Museum of Arts and Cultures. Eiseley, the renowned anthropologist and philosopher, made a key discovery in Northern Colorado in 1935 that forever changed the timeline of Native American occupation on this continent. Eiseley studied science at the University of Nebraska and became an anthropologist. As a graduate student in 1935, he joined a Smithsonian expedition in Northern Colorado that unearthed artifacts of an ancient Folsom culture in a site known as Lindenmeier. Raham, a local biologist, author, and illustrator, will outline the details of Eiseley’s discovery while also treating the audience to a sampling of Eiseley’s mesmerizing prose and poetry. Tickets for the presentation are $10 per person and available at globalvillagemuseum.org. As the program is expected to sell out, early reservations are encouraged. The program is in conjunction with the Museum’s Main Gallery exhibit, It’s About TIME, which runs through May 24. The exhibition is funded in part by the City of Fort Collins’ Fort Fund. The Global Village Museum is located at 200 West Mountain Avenue, and Museum hours are 11 am to 5 pm Tuesday through Saturday.
