Ever wonder about the history of the punchcard?

The punchcard exhibit starts with a Jacquard Loom, one of the earliest uses of punched cards, which helped to make woven fabric more affordable. Herman Hollerith’s invention of electromechanical processing of cards tabulated data for the 1890 census. The IBM family of punch card machines was used for data processing and record-keeping across many industries and academia. Punched cards were even used for matchmaking at the University of Iowa in 1963!

Come learn more about this history and punch your own souvenir card on an original IBM 029 to take home during the demo.

This quartet performance focuses on The Great American Songbook and Joe’s seductive, commanding, baritone voice that fills the air as magically as his trumpet sounds and arrangements, and further reinforces his status as a unique artist and star.

A bold reimagining of Shakespeare’s muse—told in her own voice, with live music and intimate conversation.

The Dark Lady is a witty and sensual duet that reclaims the story of a fascinating woman who was almost lost to history—Emilia Bassano. Through her eyes, this thrilling love story helps us both understand and challenge our love of Shakespeare. Emilia was multiracial and multilingual, and the first Englishwoman to publish her own poetry. And she may also be the answer to a 400-year-old mystery—just who was the “Dark Lady” that Shakespeare spoke of with such passion in his sonnets?
