SUMMARY:Myth America - storytelling show for grownups by Milbre Burch
DESCRIPTION:What do an Irish immigrant\, an unhoused person\, an essential worker and a child in her unstudied wisdom have in common? Their humanity calls to our own.  \nThis free storytelling performance for adult audiences is a retrospective show for our times\, comprised of three original dramatic monologues written across Milbre Burch’s nearly-fifty-year career alongside family history and a personal story. Drawing on a “crazy quilt” of American experience\, Burch places several unexpected voices at center stage. \nThis show on Wednesday\, October 9th\, 2024 at 6:30 pm at the Chapel Hill Public Library\, 100 Library Drive in Chapel Hill\, will include a voter registration drive assisted by Orange Durham Chatham County Branch of the League of Women Voters. So bring your family\, friends and first-time voting teenagers who still need to register to this event. \nFollowing Burch’s performance\, Dr. Sonny Kelly\, storyteller and speaker extraordinaire\, will lead a community conversation with the artist and the audience. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Floraffiti® presents: "White\, Green Futures' poetry workshop with Cortland Gilliam
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a free\, in-person\, creative poetry workshop with the talented Chapel Hill Poet Laureate\, Cortland Gilliam.  \nAcross the globe\, Black\, Indigenous\, and other minoritized communities of color are among the most vulnerable to the adverse consequences of environmental crises and the solutions proposed to remedy them. Nevertheless\, popular media often separates environmental concerns from the socio-political-economic contexts that produce them\, thereby marginalizing the knowledge and contributions of non-White environmental organizers and communities. \nThis two-hour environmental justice education and poetry writing workshop will incorporate lessons from local struggles for environmental justice within BIPOC communities to help connect the sometimes abstract idea of climate change to its effects on people’s real-life experiences.Participants will then  practice writing poetry as an exercise in radical imagining and political advocacy for an equitable and just environmental future. From their poetry\, each participant will choose words they find important. \nEach word will be planted in the ground to grow into powerful\, living voices of expression in public spaces throughout Chapel Hill. In early March\, there will be several opportunities to volunteer as a Floragardener to plant your word. For more information and to sign up to plant\, look in March of this calendar listing.  \nThat’s not all! Each poem will be recorded at the workshop and uploaded to a QR code printed on a sign next to each growing word so that people can scan the code with their smartphone and listen to the poetry. \nWhether you’re an experienced poet or just starting out\, this workshop is open to all skill levels for teens and adults. It’s a fantastic opportunity to connect with community members\, share ideas\, and be heard. \nThe workshop will be held at the Chapel Hill Public Library\, Room C. \nSpaces are limited\, so be sure to secure your spot early!\nFor more information on Floraffiti®\, check out the website at floraffiti.com and follow us on Insta and Facebook\, both @floraffiti \nFloraffiti is sponsored by:\nCarrboro Arts Committee\nCarrboro Tourism & Development Authority\nChapel Hill Downtown Partnership\nOrange County Visitors Bureau\nStrowd Roses\, Inc. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Langston Hughes’s 1931 visit to Chapel Hill: The Scottsboro Case and Legal Lynching
DESCRIPTION:OCCRC\, Carolina Public Humanities\, and the Chapel Hill Public Library will host NCSU English Professor Dr. Jason Miller to discuss Langston Hughes’ most famous anti-lynching poem\, which he debuted in Chapel Hill during his 1931 visit to Orange County. His appearance was so controversial that police were stationed outside the door of his public reading. Though he wrote nearly three dozen anti-lynching poems between 1919-67\, none equaled the immediate or lasting impact of “Christ in Alabama.” This multimedia presentation documents and contextualizes the most unforgettable moment in Hughes’s lifelong national campaign against American lynching culture. Special guests include NC Poet Laureate Jaki Shelton Green and spoken word artist Nick Courmon. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Deadline: Banned Books Art
DESCRIPTION:This is a call for local artists! \nChapel Hill Public Library\, in partnership with Chapel Hill Community Arts & Culture\, is asking you to make small (5” wide x 7” tall) original works of art on paper\, inspired by books or authors that have been challenged\, censored\, or banned. \nBased on their artistic excellence\, seven of these works will be selected by a jury to receive a $100 prize and become trading cards; artwork is featured on the front and an artist’s statement and information about the book or author are on the back. All entries are displayed in an exhibit at the library during Banned Books Week and beyond.  Trading cards are distributed for free during Banned Books Week and beyond. \nBanned Books Week is an annual national event celebrating the freedom to read and the importance of intellectual freedom. Held during the last week of September\, it highlights the benefits of free and open access to information while drawing attention to the dangers of censorship by spotlighting actual and attempted banning of books. we coordinate this project to bring these important issues into the community’s conversation in a fun\, interesting\, and unique way. \nThe deadline to submit art is Monday\, August 26\, so get started soon! \nLearn more on the library website: chapelhillpubliclibrary.org/banned-books \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:From the Moon to the Marianas Trench:  Expanding the Depth and Reach of Our Poems
DESCRIPTION:Workshop Instructor: Pam Baggett\nChapel Hill Library\, Meeting Room C \nDo you have a poem that’s stuck\, looking for a next move? Are you interested in writing longer\, more expansive poems\, though moving beyond one page or a single subject feels like diving deep into the Marianas Trench? Although the focus of this workshop is on revision\, you are welcome to write new work as we look at style\, voice\, energy\, imagery\, and technique in complex poems by Tony Hoagland\, Dorianne Laux\, Al Maginnes\, Pattiann Rogers\, William Wright\, and others. We’ll consider how to apply what we learn from their work to our own poems-in-progress\, expanding and enriching them in the process. Note: This workshop is free and open to the public. However\, Meeting Room C only holds 16 students. You’re advised to register in advance\, since dropping in on the day of the workshop won’t be possible if there isn’t room. To register\, contact Pam Baggett at nightair@mindspring.com \n\n\n	Related
