On Oct. 1, an art exhibition with an edge opened a three-month run as part of events designed to commemorate the 10th-year anniversary of professor and U.S. Congressman Walter H. Capps’s death, according to an announcement from the Capps Center for the Study of Ethics, Religion, and Public Life.

“Americans Who Tell the Truth,” Robert Shetterly’s portraits of 50 political and environmental activists, such as Rachel Carlson, Cesar Chavez, and Rosa Parks, will be on display at the Arts Alive! Community Gallery at 1 N. Calle Cesar Chavez through Dec. 31. Call 963-2278 for times and details.

The art show, which is free to the public, launches a series of activities this fall that will culminate in the appearance in Campbell Hall on Dec. 2 of Lee Hamilton, a former congressman from Indiana and current president and director of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. Perhaps better known as co-chair of the Iraq Study Group and of the 9/11 Commission, Hamilton will speak on “Time for a Course Correction: American Foreign Policy after Iraq.”

The lecture, which is free to the public, will provide an overview on Iraq, terrorism, and other challenges and suggest ways that America can further its goals in the world while recognizing the limits of its power, says the statement.
