DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate the release of Savor : Stories of Community, Culture, & Food. The book is a collaborative project celebrating the intersection between culture and community through food in the neighborhood of Glendale in west Salt Lake. Stemming from the author's curiosity about how food justice and cultural factors impact the perception and execution of eating healthfully, a year of research resulted in the collection of fifteen recipes and contributor profiles from participants originating from 12 different countries. The book is an account of a group of men and women who use their community kitchen not only to create meals, but also relationships. Through these stories the authors portray how food can act as a cultural anchor, an important element of identity, and a platform from which to build community. \N\NThe release party will include a discussion about the making of the book accompanied by a tasting of several recipes included in the book. Books will be for sale with 100% of the proceeds going to support future cooking projects and a community garden at the Glendale Community Learning Center. The event is free and open to the public. \N\NThis event is made possible by Utah Humanities, the University of Utah Undergraduate Research Program, The Glendale Community Learning Center, University Neighborhood Partners, and the Sorenson Unity Center. \N\N\N\N

DESCRIPTION:The Weber County Historical Society and the Center for the Book at Utah Humanities present, William Adler, author of The Man Who Never Died: The Life, Times, and Legacy of Joe Hill, American Labor Icon. Adler will speak on Hill at the Weber State University Hurst Center for Life Long Learning at 7:00 PM.\N\NIn 1914, Joe Hill, the prolific songwriter for the Industrial Workers of the World (also known as the Wobblies), was convicted of murder in Utah and sentenced to death by firing squad, igniting international controversy. In the first major biography of the radical historical icon, William M. Adler explores an extraordinary life and presents persuasive evidence of Hill's innocence. Hill would become organized labor's most venerated martyr, and a hero to folk singers such as Woody Guthrie and Bob Dylan. His story shines a beacon on the early-twentieth-century American experience and exposes the roots of issues critical to the twenty-first century.\N\NWilliam M. Adler has written for many national and regional magazines, including Esquire, Rolling Stone, Mother Jones, and the Texas Observer. In addition to The Man Who Never Died, he has authored two other books of narrative nonfiction: Land of Opportunity (Atlantic Monthly Press, 1995), an intimate look at the rise and fall of a crack cocaine empire, and Mollie's Job (Scribner, 2000), which follows the flight of a single factory job from the U.S. to Mexico over the course of fifty years. His work explores the intersection of individual lives and the larger forces of their times, and it describes the gap between American ideals and American realities. Adler lives with his wife and son in Colorado. \N\NThis event is made possible through the support of Utah Humanities, the Weber County Historical Society, and the Joe Hill Organizing Committee.

SUMMARY:John McCutcheon & Joe Hill's Last Will

DESCRIPTION:Six-time Grammy nominee John McCutcheon performs “Joe Hill’s Last Will,” an inspiring one-man play about the famed labor activist’s life and death.\N\NThe scene is a cell in the Utah State Prison at 4:00 in the morning, 100 years ago. Joe Hill, American Labor’s most iconic songwriter is awaiting execution at dawn and he’s got a story to tell. Joe Hill was an immigrant to the United States who, like so many others, worked at a variety of trades, trying to make his way in his new country.

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:Six-time Grammy nominee John McCutcheon performs “Joe Hill’s Last Will,” an inspiring one-man play about the famed labor activist’s life and death.<br /><br />The scene is a cell in the Utah State Prison at 4:00 in the morning, 100 years ago. Joe Hill, American Labor’s most iconic songwriter is awaiting execution at dawn and he’s got a story to tell. Joe Hill was an immigrant to the United States who, like so many others, worked at a variety of trades, trying to make his way in his new country.

URL:https://utahhumanities.org/calendar/373
DESCRIPTION:Author and artist Lily Havey will visit Southern Utah University to discuss her book, Gasa Gasa Girl Goes to Camp, as well as her artwork and the history of Japanese interment. This event will take place Wednesday, January 13, 4:00 in 002 of the Gerald R. Sherratt Library on SUU campus. There will be a reception and book signing following her presentation. \N\NLily Havey and her family lived in Southern California, where sometimes she and a friend dreamt of climbing the Hollywood sign that lit the night. At age ten, after believing that her family was simply going on a camping trip, she found herself living in a tar-papered barrack, gazing out instead at the nightly searchlight. She wondered if anything would ever be normal again.\N\NIn Gasa Gasa Girl Goes to Camp, Lily Havey combines storytelling, watercolor, and personal photographs to recount her youth in two Japanese American internment camps during World War II. She uses short vignettes—snapshots of people, recreated scenes and events—to describe how a ten-year-old girl grew into a teenager inside these camps. Vintage photographs reveal the historical, cultural, and familial contexts of that growth and of the Nakai family’s dislocation. They reveal the recollected lives of her mother and father in Japan and then America, where they began their arranged marriage and had two children. Havey’s vivid and poignant watercolors depict decades-old memories and dreams and reflect moments of daily camp life illuminated by the author’s adult perspective. The paintings and her animated writing draw readers into a turbulent era when America disgracefully incarcerated, without due process, thousands of American citizens because of their race.\N\NLily Havey was born in Los Angeles. In 1942, along with 120,000 persons of Japanese descent, she was incarcerated in Japanese-American internment camps. After World War II her family moved to Salt Lake City. She graduated from the New England Conservatory of Music, pursued an MFA at the University of Utah, and taught high school for thirteen years before establishing a stained-glass business.

Since her husband died eight months ago, Stacey’s been a certified mess—a poet who can’t write anymore, a good mother who feels like she’s failing her kids. She’s been trying to redefine herself, to find new boundaries.\N\NTommy has no respect for boundaries. A surprisingly well-read A-list Hollywood star, Tommy’s fallen in love with Stacey’s novel-in-verse, a feminist reimagining of Frankenstein, no less. His passion for the book, and eventually its author, will set their lives on a collision course. They’ll make a movie, make each other crazy, and make love—but only in secret.\N\NAs Stacey travels between her humdrum life in the suburbs of Omaha and the glamorous but fleeting escape Tommy offers, what begins as a distracting affair starts to pick up weight. It’s a weight that unbalances Stacey’s already unsteady life, but offers new depth to Tommy’s. About desire, love, grief, parenthood, sexual politics, and gender, Monsters: A Love Story is a witty portrait of a relationship gone off the rails, and two people who are made for each other—even if they’re not so sure they see it that way.\N\NLiz Kay holds an MFA from the University of Nebraska, where she was the recipient of an Academy of American Poets Prize. She is a founding editor of Spark Wheel Press and the journal burntdistrict. Her work has appeared in Willow Springs, Nimrod, RHINO, Sugar House Review, and Beloit Poetry Journal, and has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize and Best New Poets anthology.

A surprisingly well-read A-list Hollywood star, Tommy’s fallen in love with Stacey’s novel-in-verse, a feminist reimagining of Frankenstein, no less. His passion for the book, and eventually its author, will set their lives on a collision course. They’ll make a movie, make each other crazy, and make love—but only in secret.<br /><br />As Stacey travels between her humdrum life in the suburbs of Omaha and the glamorous but fleeting escape Tommy offers, what begins as a distracting affair starts to pick up weight. It’s a weight that unbalances Stacey’s already unsteady life, but offers new depth to Tommy’s. About desire, love, grief, parenthood, sexual politics, and gender, Monsters: A Love Story is a witty portrait of a relationship gone off the rails, and two people who are made for each other—even if they’re not so sure they see it that way.<br /><br />Liz Kay holds an MFA from the University of Nebraska, where she was the recipient of an Academy of American Poets Prize. She is a founding editor of Spark Wheel Press and the journal burntdistrict. Her work has appeared in Willow Springs, Nimrod, RHINO, Sugar House Review, and Beloit Poetry Journal, and has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize and Best New Poets anthology. Kay lives in Omaha, Nebraska, with her husband and three children.<br />

SUMMARY:The Finch Lane Gallery Reading Series Presents Poets Anne Vinsel and Lance Larsen

DESCRIPTION:Artists of Utah, in collaboration with The Salt Lake City Arts Council, are pleased to present the Finch Lane Gallery Reading Series, a series of conversations featuring writers who live within the state of Utah. Curated by David G. Pace, Literary Editor of Artists of Utah’s online magazine 15 Bytes, the Finch Lane Gallery Reading Series will bring together emerging writers who have won local writing awards, such as the Utah Original Writing Competition, and established local authors. This brings general recognition to writers, not just recognition of the award they have won, a place for writers to network with working authors, and a space where content and craft are discussed with a public audience.\N\NThe second installment in the series will take place on Thursday, Juen 9th and will feature poet Anne Vinsel and Utah Poet Laureate Lance Larsen. \N\NAnne Vinsel’s Waiting received the first place award in poetry at the 2015 Utah Arts & Museums Original Writing Competition. Juror Ellen Bass said of Vinsel’s work, “There is a palpable voice here, a person with something to say. There is something important at stake at the heart of these poems.” \N\NVinsel's employment history includes teaching medical students to draw roasting chickens, putting makeup on dead people, and working with incarcerated rapists/murders. Her day job is doing surgical photography and wrangling bureaucracy for 75 medical residency programs at a large academic medical center. Her mother, an opera singer and embalmer, lead to the formative experience of her early years, which was being asked to draw what her mother did, and creating chaos\Nwhen her kindergarten teacher interpreted her drawing as portraying a screaming (actually, singing) serial killer (actually, embalming a naked male). It gave her respect for the power of art and hysteria.\N\NLance Larsen’s fourth collection of poems, Genius Loci, was recently published by University of Tampa Press. His earlier collections include Backyard Alchemy (2009), In All Their Animal Brilliance (2005), and Erasable Walls (1998). He holds a PhD from the University of Houston.\NHis work appears widely in such venues as Georgia Review, Southern Review, Ploughshares, Poetry, River Styx, Orion, The Pushcart Prize Anthology, Best American Poetry 2009, Poetry Daily, and elsewhere. His nonfiction has twice made the Notable Essay list in Best American Essays. He is currently working on Seventeen Ways to\NFloat, a collection of essays about place, family, and memory which won first place in the 2011 Utah Original Writing Competition.\N\NIntroduction by David G. Pace, literary editor at 15 Bytes.\NBooks for sale, courtesy of The King’s English Bookshop.

DESCRIPTION:Weller Book Works presents the next in the Books and Bridges discussion series! On Wednesday, November 8, at 6:30 PM, we welcome Nathan Devir as he speaks on "The Lost Tribes of Israel, Yesterday and Today"!\N\NNathan Devir, Professor of Jewish Studies at the University of Utah, will probe the modern fascination with the Lost Tribes of Israel and examine new communities who claim this identity. In the developing world, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa, hundreds of so-called “Judaizing” communities with supposed descent from the biblical Ten Lost Tribes are increasingly attempting to gain recognition of their status as the “Dispersed of Israel.” Given the near-impossibility of corroborating such communities' ties to known centers of Jewish life elsewhere, how might one establish if such claims have any basis in fact? Professor Devir analyzes the evidence, provides an overview of Jewish-related activity in far-flung locales, and elucidates the implications of these claims and movements surrounding the Lost Tribes for the state of Israel and the Judeo-Christian world in general. The presentation is based on his book New Children of Israel: Emerging Jewish Communities in an Era of Globalization.\N\NThis event is organized by Books & Bridges — a community institute of ideas and conversation. Our mission is to facilitate discussion on the best of human thought. We explore the wisdoms of the world and apply them to modern life. We have no political, religious or ideological affiliation. In a society divided by uncivil discourse, the beauty of the humanities—novels, history, philosophy, poetry, ethics and epics—lifts us to our better angels. In our busy world we need space for friends and fellow learners to do a little more heart-to-heart and mind-to-mind. \N\NThis event is made possible with support from Books & Bridges, Weller Book Works, and Utah Humanities. \N

DESCRIPTION:Weller Book Works presents the next in the Books and Bridges discussion series! On Thursday, January 25, at 6:30 PM, we welcome Kristin Matthews as she speaks on "Literature, Democracy, and Race in Cold War America"!\N\NKristin Matthews, Professor of English at Brigham Young University, will discuss a chapter in her book “Reading America: Citizenship, Democracy, and Cold War Literature.” African Americans have a unique history with literacy. Long denied by slavery and long seen as the path to freedom, the act of reading carried different implications for African Americans still bearing the weight of racial prejudice after WWII. Matthews examines how African American educators, activists, and writers questioned the ideology undergirding reading initiatives during the Cold War and contested the ways those initiatives maintained the racial status quo. In his award-winning novel "Invisible Man," Ralph Ellison explores the relationship between reading and power, demonstrating how such power can be used to either liberate or control, and offers a mode of reading that encourages imagination and self-determination. A Q&A session and refreshments will follow.\N\NThis event is organized by Books & Bridges — a community institute of ideas and conversation. Our mission is to facilitate discussion on the best of human thought. We explore the wisdoms of the world and apply them to modern life. We have no political, religious or ideological affiliation. In a society divided by uncivil discourse, the beauty of the humanities—novels, history, philosophy, poetry, ethics and epics—lifts us to our better angels. In our busy world we need space for friends and fellow learners to do a little more heart-to-heart and mind-to-mind. \N\NThis event is made possible with support from Books & Bridges, Weller Book Works, and Utah Humanities. \N

DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Murray Library to discuss The Book of Unknown Americans by Cristina Henriquez, the 2018 United We Read Book for Salt Lake County. \N\NA dazzling, heartbreaking page-turner destined for breakout status: a novel that gives voice to millions of Americans as it tells the story of the love between a Panamanian boy and a Mexican girl: teenagers living in an apartment block of immigrant families like their own.\N\NAfter their daughter Maribel suffers a near-fatal accident, the Riveras leave México and come to America. But upon settling at Redwood Apartments, a two-story cinderblock complex just off a highway in Delaware, they discover that Maribel's recovery--the piece of the American Dream on which they've pinned all their hopes--will not be easy. Every task seems to confront them with language, racial, and cultural obstacles.\N\NAt Redwood also lives Mayor Toro, a high school sophomore whose family arrived from Panamá fifteen years ago. Mayor sees in Maribel something others do not: that beyond her lovely face, and beneath the damage she's sustained, is a gentle, funny, and wise spirit. But as the two grow closer, violence casts a shadow over all their futures in America\N\NPeopled with deeply sympathetic characters, this poignant yet unsentimental tale of young love tells a riveting story of unflinching honesty and humanity that offers a resonant new definition of what it means to be an American.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for two screening of the Newbery Film Festival at the Treehouse Museum in Ogden on Friday, February 23rd. This is a ticketed event. For ticket information, visit: https://www.treehousemuseum.org/calendar\N\NThe 90-Second Newbery Film Festival is an annual celebration of kids’ creativity in which young filmmakers create short movies telling the entire stories of Newbery Medal and Newbery Honor books in roughly 90 seconds.\N\NThe film festival was founded by children’s author James Kennedy (The Order of Odd-Fish) and screens every year to packed houses at libraries and theaters in New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Boston, Portland, Minneapolis, San Antonio, and other cities. \N\NEver since 1922, the American Library Association’s Newbery Medal has been recognized as the most prestigious award in children’s literature. Honorees include Madeleine L’Engle’s A Wrinkle in Time, Louis Sachar’s Holes, and Katherine Paterson’s Bridge to Terabithia. But according to Kennedy, “it turns out that any book, no matter how worthy and somber, becomes hilarious when it’s compressed to only 90 seconds.” \N\NThe goal, says Kennedy, is not for kids to create mere book trailers or video book reports. The challenge is to compress the entire plot of the book in under two minutes, often with a transformative twist. Past entries include Beverly Cleary’s Ramona and Her Father done in the style of a James Bond movie and E. B. White’s Charlotte’s Web reimagined as a horror movie. Kids use many other styles as well, including claymation, puppet shows, musicals, silent films, and Minecraft. Filmmakers may adapt any Medal– or Honor–winning book. Participants should be under 21, but help from enthusiastic adults is allowed.\N\NMore details may be found at www.90secondnewbery.com. The website features many of the videos received throughout the last six years, as well as further resources for teachers and filmmakers.

DESCRIPTION:There are times we write to remember, to restore, and to resist. Sometimes we write to adore. In this workshop, we will pen love letters to Utah’s public lands with all of these possibilities.\N\NYou will be invited to bear witness to beloved places—to generously share your own details and experience. As we write, we’ll cultivate our appreciation and attention, as we grow our own embodied and grounded presence. You need not identify as a “writer” to bring your love of the land to this writing practice. Everyone is welcome.\N\NThis class will run for four weeks, with an option to read your finished (or in-progress) work at a public reading event in June.\N\NDates: March 24, 31, April 7 & 14\N\NTime: 1 - 4 pm\N\NLocation: Art Access Workshop, 230 S 500 W, Suite 110\N\NCost: $30\N\NAbout the Teaching Artist:                                          \N\NNan has facilitated writing for hundreds of groups, including cancer survivors, high school students, and homeless writers. She currently offers an ongoing schedule of expressive writing groups at her River Writing studio in Salt Lake City. As the mother of a transgender daughter and an activist, her mantra is unafraid to witness, unashamed to adore. She spent many of her grown-up years as a miller and baker of whole-grain bread. She learned something about process by milling the wheat. She acquired some patience while waiting for the loaves to rise.\N\NSpecial thanks to the Utah Humanities book festival for making this creative writing workshop possible. Our thanks to the Book Festival's major sponsors as well:  the George S and Dolores Dore Eccles Foundation, the R. Harold Burton Foundation, Chevron, The National Endowment for the Arts, and the National Endowment for the Humanities.

DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Murray Library to discuss The Book of Unknown Americans by Cristina Henriquez, the 2018 United We Read Book for Salt Lake County. \N\NA dazzling, heartbreaking page-turner destined for breakout status: a novel that gives voice to millions of Americans as it tells the story of the love between a Panamanian boy and a Mexican girl: teenagers living in an apartment block of immigrant families like their own.\N\NAfter their daughter Maribel suffers a near-fatal accident, the Riveras leave México and come to America. But upon settling at Redwood Apartments, a two-story cinderblock complex just off a highway in Delaware, they discover that Maribel's recovery--the piece of the American Dream on which they've pinned all their hopes--will not be easy. Every task seems to confront them with language, racial, and cultural obstacles.\N\NAt Redwood also lives Mayor Toro, a high school sophomore whose family arrived from Panamá fifteen years ago. Mayor sees in Maribel something others do not: that beyond her lovely face, and beneath the damage she's sustained, is a gentle, funny, and wise spirit. But as the two grow closer, violence casts a shadow over all their futures in America\N\NPeopled with deeply sympathetic characters, this poignant yet unsentimental tale of young love tells a riveting story of unflinching honesty and humanity that offers a resonant new definition of what it means to be an American. An instant classic is born.\N\NUnited We Read SLC is a reading initiative that encourages everyone in the County to connect by reading the same book and by sharing their experience with others.

Bring your questions and come enjoy a fun evening talking books!\N\NA book signing will follow. Books may be purchased at this event.\N\NJosi is the author of twenty-seven novels—including the twelve-volume Sadie Hoffmiller culinary mystery series—one cookbook, several novellas, and is a participant in several co-authors projects and anthologies. She is a four-time Whitney award winner, including Novel of the year, and a recipient of the Utah Best in State for fiction. She is currently writing regency and historical romance, and women’s fiction. Josi loves to bake, sleep, read, and travel. She doesn’t like to exercise, do yard work, or learn how to do new things but she does them anyway. She and her husband, Lee, are the parents of four children and live in Northern Utah.\N\NJulie Daines is an award-winning and best-selling author. She was born in Concord, Massachusetts, and was raised in Utah. She spent eighteen months living in London, where she studied and fell in love with English literature, sticky toffee pudding, and the mysterious guy who ran the kebab store around the corner. She loves reading, writing, and watching movies—anything that transports her to another world. She picks Captain Wentworth over Mr. Darcy, firmly believes in second breakfast, and never leaves home without her vervain.\N\NKaren Tuft was born with a healthy dose of curiosity about pretty much everything, so as a child she taught herself to read and play the piano. She studied composition at BYU, graduating from the University of Utah in music theory as a member of Phi Kappa Phi and Pi Kappa Lambda honor societies. In addition to being an author, Karen is a wife, mother, grandma—hooray!—pianist, composer, and arranger. She has spent countless hours back stage and in orchestra pits for theater productions along the Wasatch Front. Among her varied interests, she likes to figure out what makes people tick, wander through museums, and travel—whether it’s by car, plane, or paperback.\N\NNo registration necessary. \N\NThis event is made possible with the support of the Brigham City Public Library and Utah Humanities.

DESCRIPTION:Writers Klancy Clark de Nevers and Scott Abbot will read from their work December 12th at the Salt Lake City Public Library at 7:00 P.M. as part of the City Art Reading Series.\N\NKlancy Clark de Nevers is the author of the new memoir, Lessons in Printing and\NThe Colonel and the Pacifist: Karl Bendetsen, Perry Saito and the Incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II (University of Utah Press, April 2004).\Nis a printer’s daughter who grew up proofreading, doing bindery work and numbering ballots in her father’s business, Quick Print Co. in Aberdeen, Washington. The rush to get the Grays Harbor Post out every Friday night gave structure to her family’s week. During World War II four of her uncles were in the armed forces and by observing how closely her family followed the progress of the war, she gained an enduring interest in the history of that era. She graduated from Weatherwax High School (where she had been editor of The Ocean Breeze) in 1951.\N\NIn 1970 she earned a Master’s Degree in Mathematics from the University of Utah. After a varied career in technical and managerial positions that allowed her to use her mathematical and computing skills, she retired to focus on writing. With Lucy Hart of Seattle, she edited Cohassett Beach Chronicles: World War II in the Pacific Northwest by Kathy Hogan, a book of Hogan’s columns from the wartime pages of the Grays Harbor Post. Her poem “Curator” won first place in the City Weekly literary competition in September 2000. She served as treasurer for City Art, a grass roots literary organization that presents readings each week in the Salt Lake City Public Library, and is active on the board of Writers@Work, which presents a nationally known writing conference held at the Alta Lodge in the Wasatch Mountains near Salt Lake City, Utah.\N\NHer latest book is The Colonel and the Pacifist: Karl Bendetsen, Perry Saito and the Incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II (University of Utah Press, April 2004).\N\NScott Abbott is the author of Immortal for Quite Some Time from the Universtiy of Utah Press. "This is not a memoir,” he writes. “Rather, this is a fraternal meditation on the question 'Are we friends, my brother?’ The story is uncertain, the characters are in flux, the voices are plural, the photographs are as troubled as the prose. This is not a memoir." Thus Scott Abbott introduces the reader to his exploration of the life of his brother John, a man who died of AIDS in 1991 at the age of forty. Writing about his brother, he finds he is writing about himself and about the warm-hearted, educated, and homophobic LDS family that forged the core of his identity. Winner of the book manuscript prize in creative nonfiction in the Utah Arts Council’s Original Writing Competition, Scott Abbott is professor of humanities, philosophy, and integrated studies at Utah Valley University.\N\NThis event is made possible with support from City Art and Utah Humanities.

DESCRIPTION:The Printed Garden is proud to partner with Utah Humanities to bring New York Times Bestselling Historian Tom Clavin to Salt Lake City!  Tom will be discussing his new book, Wild Bill:  The True Story of the American Frontier's First Gunfighter, answering questions, and signing copies of his books.  This event will begin at 4:00 p.m. at the Marmalade Branch of the Salt Lake City Library. \N\NIn July 1865, "Wild Bill" Hickok shot and killed Davis Tutt in Springfield, MO―the first quick-draw duel on the frontier. Thus began the reputation that made him a marked man to every gunslinger in the Wild West.  James Butler Hickock was known across the frontier as a soldier, Union spy, scout, lawman, gunfighter, gambler, showman, and actor. He crossed paths with General Custer and Buffalo Bill Cody, as well as Ben Thompson and other young toughs gunning for the sheriff with the quickest draw west of the Mississippi.\N\NThe legend of Wild Bill has only grown since his death in 1876, when cowardly Jack McCall famously put a bullet through the back of his head during a card game. Bestselling author Tom Clavin has sifted through years of western lore to bring Hickock fully to life in this rip-roaring, spellbinding true story.\N\NThis event is made possible with support from the Marmalade Branch of the Salt Lake City Public Library, The Printed Garden, and Utah Humanities.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for two screening of the Newbery Film Festival at the Treehouse Museum in Ogden on Friday, February 15th. This is a ticketed event. For ticket information, visit: https://www.treehousemuseum.org.\N\NThe 90-Second Newbery Film Festival is an annual celebration of kids’ creativity in which young filmmakers create short movies telling the entire stories of Newbery Medal and Newbery Honor books in roughly 90 seconds.\N\NThe film festival was founded by children’s author James Kennedy (The Order of Odd-Fish) and screens every year to packed houses at libraries and theaters in New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Boston, Portland, Minneapolis, San Antonio, and other cities. \N\NEver since 1922, the American Library Association’s Newbery Medal has been recognized as the most prestigious award in children’s literature. Honorees include Madeleine L’Engle’s A Wrinkle in Time, Louis Sachar’s Holes, and Katherine Paterson’s Bridge to Terabithia. But according to Kennedy, “it turns out that any book, no matter how worthy and somber, becomes hilarious when it’s compressed to only 90 seconds.” \N\NThe goal, says Kennedy, is not for kids to create mere book trailers or video book reports. The challenge is to compress the entire plot of the book in under two minutes, often with a transformative twist. Past entries include Beverly Cleary’s Ramona and Her Father done in the style of a James Bond movie and E. B. White’s Charlotte’s Web reimagined as a horror movie. Kids use many other styles as well, including claymation, puppet shows, musicals, silent films, and Minecraft. Filmmakers may adapt any Medal– or Honor–winning book. Participants should be under 21, but help from enthusiastic adults is allowed.\N\NMore details may be found at www.90secondnewbery.com. The website features many of the videos received throughout the last six years, as well as further resources for teachers and filmmakers. To receive more information, or to schedule an interview with James Kennedy, email him at james@90secondnewbery.com.\N\NThis event was made possible with support from The Treehouse Museum, Weber Book Links, and Utah Humanities.

DESCRIPTION:The Grand County Library welcomes author and journalist Kevin Fedarko to Star Hall on February 15th at 7:00 PM. Fedarko will give a presentation called "Beneath the River of Shooting Stars: \NBeauty, Austerity, and Grace in the Grand Canyon." This event is free and open to the public. \N\NKevin Fedarko's work has taken him to some of the world's most dramatic landscapes, from Kashmir's Siachen Glacier to the Khumbu Icefall on Mt. Everest and Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. His deepest connection, however, is to the river and the canyon where he spent six years researching and writing The Emerald Mile, which opens a window into the hidden world at the bottom of perhaps the most iconic and beloved landscape feature in North America, as well as one of the most endangered.\N\N      Despite the fact that the Grand Canyon is widely recognized and universally revered, it is surrounded on all sides by threats that include uranium mining, helicopter tourism, and a host of other development proposals. In order to explore this paradox, Fedarko and his friend Peter McBride, a National Geographic photographer and filmmaker, decided to do something unusual. In the fall of 2015, they set out to walk through the heart of the canyon, from Lees Ferry to Grand Wash Cliffs—an arduous and illuminating odyssey of nearly 800 miles. \N\N      Join Fedarko as he presents the story of the Emerald Mile, shares insights from his through-hike, and discusses how the challenges currently facing the Grand Canyon are emblematic of the country’s entire national park system.\N\NKEVIN FEDARKO has written for National Geographic, the New York Times, Esquire, and other publications. He is the author of The Emerald Mile, a New York Times bestseller that won the National Outdoor Book Award and the Reading the West Award. He lives and works in Flagstaff.\N

Watch these classics reimagined with hilarious twists by national and local winners at this film festival hosted by award-winning authors for young readers.\N\NThe 90-Second Newbery Film Festival is an annual celebration of kids’ creativity in which young filmmakers create short movies telling the entire stories of Newbery Medal and Newbery Honor books in roughly 90 seconds.\N\NThe film festival was founded by children’s author James Kennedy (The Order of Odd-Fish) and screens every year to packed houses at libraries and theaters in New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Boston, Portland, Minneapolis, San Antonio, and other cities. \N\NEver since 1922, the American Library Association’s Newbery Medal has been recognized as the most prestigious award in children’s literature. Honorees include Madeleine L’Engle’s A Wrinkle in Time, Louis Sachar’s Holes, and Katherine Paterson’s Bridge to Terabithia. But according to Kennedy, “it turns out that any book, no matter how worthy and somber, becomes hilarious when it’s compressed to only 90 seconds.” \N\NThe goal, says Kennedy, is not for kids to create mere book trailers or video book reports. The challenge is to compress the entire plot of the book in under two minutes, often with a transformative twist. Past entries include Beverly Cleary’s Ramona and Her Father done in the style of a James Bond movie and E. B. White’s Charlotte’s Web reimagined as a horror movie. Kids use many other styles as well, including claymation, puppet shows, musicals, silent films, and Minecraft. Filmmakers may adapt any Medal– or Honor–winning book. Participants should be under 21, but help from enthusiastic adults is allowed.\N\NMore details may be found at www.90secondnewbery.com. The website features many of the videos received throughout the last six years, as well as further resources for teachers and filmmakers.

URL:https://utahhumanities.org/calendar/1455
DESCRIPTION:In his presentation, “Inescapable Networks: Martin Luther King, Social Justice, and the Necessity of the Grassroots,” Historian Joseph Stuart will explain how everyday people made the civil rights movement possible. Through an examination of the life and career of Martin Luther King, Jr., he shows that the celebrated preacher was most effective when he helped guide already-existing local movements. Stuart also highlights the ways in which King's political goals fell short when his projects expanded beyond the aims shaped and fought for by average people galvanized by grassroots networks. Such alignment with common folks is especially important for social justice groups to remember today. In his Letter from Birmingham Jail, King expressed a similar spirit of interdependence when he said: “We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny.”\N\NA Q&A and refreshments will follow. The lecture is free, open to the public, and made possible by a grant from Utah Humanities.\N\NThis event is organized by Books & Bridges — a community institute of ideas and conversation. Our mission is to facilitate discussion on the best of human thought. We explore the wisdoms of the world and apply them to modern life. We have no political, religious or ideological affiliation. In a society divided by uncivil discourse, the beauty of the humanities—novels, history, philosophy, poetry, ethics and epics—lifts us to our better angels. In our busy world we need space for friends and fellow learners to do a little more heart-to-heart and mind-to-mind.\N\NThis event is made possible with support from Books & Bridges, Weller Book Works, and Utah Humanities.

DESCRIPTION:David Blankenhorn, president of the national grassroots initiative “Better Angels," will discuss the causes and potential cures for the social crisis of our time – political polarization, which can be defined as our loss of trust in one another as citizens and the fear that our political opponents are not simply misguided, but are bad people. Drawing on the work of “Better Angels,” he will also ask us to consider the natural advantages Americans have when it comes to confronting this great challenge. His talk will evoke Abraham Lincoln’s First Inaugural Address in 1861, on the eve of the Civil War, in which he says “We are not enemies, but friends” and calls us to be touched again by “the better angels of our nature.” Today in our increasingly fractured nation, surely we all need to be touched again by something “better” within us.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for a FREE 50th-anniversary screening of the film THE WILD BUNCH, with a pre-screening discussion by author W.K. Stratton.\N\NAn aging group of outlaws look for one last big score as the "traditional" American West disappears around them.\N\NDirected by Sam Peckinpah\N144 min | 1969 | USA | Rated R\NCast: William Holden, Ernest Borgnine, Robert Ryan\NPriority seating for Utah Film Center members from 6:00pm-6:15pm. Seating for general public starts at 6:15pm.\N\NUtah Film Center is proud to partner with Bloomsbury, Utah Humanities and Salt Lake City Public Library for a very special event to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of Sam Peckinpah's classic western The Wild Bunch.  \N\NJoin us as we welcome author W. K. Stratton to Salt Lake City Public Library to discuss his new book The Wild Bunch:  Sam Peckinpah, a Revolution in Hollywood, and the Making of a Legendary Film.  Mr. Stratton will be answering questions about, and signing copies of, his new book from 6:30 to 7:00 p.m., when he'll introduce the film. Attendees will then enjoy a full screening of The Wild Bunch, courtesy of Utah Film Center.  Afterward, Mr. Stratton will answer lingering or new questions anyone has about the film, and will sign any additional copies of his book.\N\NSam Peckinpah's film The Wild Bunch, named one of the greatest films of all time by the American Film Institute, is the story of a gang of outlaws who are one big steal from retirement. When their attempted train robbery goes awry, the gang flees to Mexico and falls in with a brutal general of the Mexican Revolution, who offers them the job of a lifetime. Conceived by a stuntman, directed by a blacklisted director, and shot in the sand and heat of the Mexican desert, the movie seemed doomed. Instead, it became an instant classic with a dark, violent take on the Western movie tradition.\N\NIn The Wild Bunch, W.K. Stratton tells the fascinating history of the making of the movie and documents for the first time the extraordinary contribution of Mexican and Mexican-American actors and crew members to the movie's success. Shaped by infamous director Sam Peckinpah, and starring such visionary actors as William Holden, Ernest Borgnine, Edmond O'Brien, and Robert Ryan, the movie was also the product of an industry and a nation in transition. By 1968, when the movie was filmed, the studio system that had perpetuated the myth of the valiant cowboy in movies like The Searchers had collapsed, and America was riled by Vietnam, race riots, and assassinations. The Wild Bunch spoke to America in its moment, when war and senseless violence seemed to define both domestic and international life.\N\NThis event is made possible with support from The Printed Garden, Utah Film Center, and Utah Humanities.

DESCRIPTION:Wesley Sasaki-Uemura, Professor of Asian History at the University of Utah, will discuss the false binary between east and west. Though eastern religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Daoism, and Confucianism might seem polar opposites to the Judeo-Christian tradition, they actually share common ground. The professor will place these traditions into dialogue with each other, counter-posing classic works like the Bhagavad Gita with the Book of Job, Plato’s “Euthyphro” with Confucius’ Analects, or the Buddhist tale of “Mulian” with Dante’s Inferno. In this way, he will probe differences and congruences in both doctrine and practice among these diverse traditions. \N\NA Q&A and refreshments will follow. The lecture is free, open to the public, and made possible by a grant from Utah Humanities.\N\NThis event is organized by Books & Bridges — a community institute of ideas and conversation. Our mission is to facilitate discussion on the best of human thought. We explore the wisdoms of the world and apply them to modern life. We have no political, religious or ideological affiliation. In a society divided by uncivil discourse, the beauty of the humanities—novels, history, philosophy, poetry, ethics and epics—lifts us to our better angels. In our busy world we need space for friends and fellow learners to do a little more heart-to-heart and mind-to-mind.\N\NThis event is made possible with support from Books & Bridges, Weller Book Works, and Utah Humanities.

Once in the United States, they were detained in what migrants have come to label hieleras (ice boxes) in makeshift detention centers around the country. Rather than providing asylum to these refugees, the Obama Administration used this “humanitarian crisis” to expand the previously defunct practice of family detention. By the spring of 2015, more than 3,000 refugee women, children, and members of the LGBTQI community were illegally detained. Based on interviews with recently arrived Central Americans as well as interviews with organizers leading the struggle on the ground in Central America, this film captures the stories of Central American refugees and explores the root causes of forced migration. In the words of the late Salvadoran poet, Roque Dalton, as he says in his Poema de Amor, this film is about los Eternos Indocumentados (the Eternally Undocumented).\N\NSPONSORED BY: Utah Humanities & Unidad Inmigrante\N\N-------------\N\NQUÉ: Proyección gratuita de LOS ETERNOS INDOCUMENTADOS (Dir/Prod.

Lured by a seemingly invincible gang culture, he witnessed countless shootings, beatings, and arrests, then watched with increasing fear as drugs , murder, suicide, and senseless acts of street crime claimed friends and family members. Before long Rodriguez saw a way out of the barrio through education and the power of words, and successfully broke free from years of violence and desperation. Achieving success an as award-winning Chicano poet, he was sure the streets would haunt him no more--until his young son joined a gang. Rodriguez fought for his child by telling his own story in ALWAYS RUNNING, a vivid memoir that explores the motivations of gang life and cautions against the death and destruction that inevitably claim its participants. At times heartbreakingly sad and brutal, ALWAYS RUNNING is ultimately an uplifting true story, filled with hope, insight, an d ahard-earned lesson for the next generation. \N\NAuthor Bio: The son of Mexican immigrations, Luis J. Rodriguez grew up in Watts and East Los Angeles. He began writing in his early teens, and eventually won national recognition as a poet, journalist, and critic. He is currently working as a peacemaker among inner-city gangs and runs Tia Chucha Press.\N\NScholar bio: Questions of citizenship, race, and representation in American cultures drive Varon's research and teaching, and his work is animated by the possibilities of narrative forms to reflect and create our social lives. He am a scholar of Latinx cultures from the 19th century to the present and regularly teaches courses in interdisciplinary American and Latinx cultures. His first book, Before Chicano: Citizenship and the Making of Mexican American Manhood, 1848-1959 (NYUP 2018) examined a broad archive of Mexican American literatures and print culture to identify how manhood offered a discursive strategy through which Mexican Americans processed cultural integration into the United States.

Afaf Rahman, the daughter of Palestinian immigrants, is the principal of Nurrideen School for Girls, a Muslim school in the Chicago suburbs. One morning, a shooter―radicalized by the online alt-right―attacks the school.\N\NAs Afaf listens to his terrifying progress, we are swept back through her memories: the bigotry she faced as a child, her mother’s dreams of returning to Palestine, and the devastating disappearance of her older sister that tore her family apart. Still, there is the sweetness of the music from her father’s oud, and the hope and community Afaf finally finds in Islam.\N\NThe Beauty of Your Face is a profound and poignant exploration of one woman’s life in a nation at odds with its ideals, an emotionally rich novel that encourages us to reflect on our shared humanity. If others take the time to really see us, to look into our face, they will find something indelibly familiar, something achingly beautiful gazing back.\N\NThis event was made possible with support from The Emerald Project and Utah Humanities.

Her first book, The Spiral Jetty Encyclo: Exploring Robert Smithson's Earthwork through Time and Place (2017, The University of Utah Press and Tanner Trust Fund, J. Willard Marriott Library) delves into Robert Smithson’s regional concerns in creating his earthwork. It won the 15 Bytes Book Award for Art Book in 2018 and was a finalist for the Utah State Historical Society Best Book Award.\N\NJaimi Butler is the coordinator of the Great Salt Lake Institute, housed at Westminster College. Despite the Great Salt Lakes' reputation for being inhospitable, Jaimi fell in love with the lake and made it her place. After graduating with her Fisheries and Wildlife degree from Utah State University in 1999, Jaimi has helped increase knowledge and shape perceptions of the Lake through work in the private sector, government, and academia. Jaimi can barely remember a time when she was not using airplanes, boats, four-wheelers, airboats, and stand-up paddle boards to get around one of Utah's most amazing ecosystems. Jaimi's primary areas of studies include the brine shrimp and bird populations that thrive at the lake. When she is not knee deep in salty water doing research or lost in grant documents, Jaimi and her students are likely educating the community about the importance of the lake.\N\NBibliographical Resources: \N\N- Great Salt Lake Biology: A Terminal Lake in a Time of Change: https://www.springer.com/us/book/9783030403515\N\N- The GREAT Great Salt Lake Monster Mystery: https://www.gslsaltysirens.com/listing/821199871/the-great-great-salt-lake-monster\N\N- The Spiral Jetty Encyclo: https://uofupress.lib.utah.edu/the-spiral-jetty-encyclo/\N\N- Robert Smithson: The Collected Writings: \Nhttps://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520203853/robert-smithson\N\N- Robert Smithson: Spiral Jetty: https://www.diaart.org/shop/books/robert-smithson-spiral-jetty-exhibition-and-collection-publications/type/exhibition-and-collection-publications\N\N- Great Salt Lake: An Overview of Change: https://www.utahmapstore.com/products/great-salt-lake-an-overview-of-change?variant=32203818631221\N\NThis event is part of Think Water Utah, a statewide collaboration and conversation on the critical topic of water presented by Utah Humanities and its partners.

The second time, he was incarcerated when his promotion to full professor was finalized. During his ninety-day pretrial confinement at the Hartford Correctional Center—a level 4, high-security urban jail in Connecticut—he met men who shared harrowing and heart-felt stories.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for a poetry reading, film screening, and Q&A at the Lost Eden Gallery on Wednesday, November 17th 6pm at the Lost Eden Gallery at the Gateway. \N\N6:00 PM - Introductions\N6:05 PM - Ravi Shankar Poetry Reading\N6:20 PM - Belly of the Beast film screening\N7:50 PM - Q&A with Erika Cohn, Ravi Shankar, and Teneille Brown. \N\NYou can join us virtually here: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/86919401718?pwd=eDJhZTlrdTNZOEMxWTZxdWpISlBiZz09\N\NCORRECTIONAL INFO \N\NThe first time Ravi Shankar was arrested, he spoke out against racist policing on National Public Radio and successfully sued the city of New York. The second time, he was incarcerated when his promotion to full professor was finalized. During his ninety-day pretrial confinement at the Hartford Correctional Center—a level 4, high-security urban jail in Connecticut—he met men who shared harrowing and heart-felt stories. The experience taught him about the persistence of structural racism, the limitations of mass media, and the pervasive traumas of twenty-first-century daily life.\N\NShankar’s bold and complex self-portrait—and portrait of America—challenges us to rethink our complicity in the criminal justice system and mental health policies that perpetuate inequity and harm. Correctional dives into the inner workings of his mind and heart, framing his unexpected encounters with law and order through the lenses of race, class, privilege, and his bicultural upbringing as the first and only son of South Indian immigrants. Vignettes from his early life set the scene for his spectacular fall and subsequent struggle to come to terms with his own demons. Many of them, it turns out, are also our own.\N\NBELLY OF THE BEAST INFO \N\NWhen an unlikely duo discovers a pattern of illegal sterilizations in women’s prisons, they wage a near impossible battle against the Department of Corrections. Filmed over seven years with extraordinary access and intimate accounts from currently and formerly incarcerated people, BELLY OF THE BEAST exposes modern-day eugenics and reproductive injustice in California prisons.\N\NThe pastoral farmlands surrounding the Central California Women’s Facility, the world’s largest women’s prison, help conceal the reproductive and human rights violations transpiring inside its walls. A courageous woman who was involuntarily sterilized at the facility, teams up with a radical lawyer to stop these violations. They spearhead investigations that uncover a series of statewide crimes, primarily targeting women of color, from inadequate access to healthcare to sexual assault to illegal sterilization. Together, with a team of tenacious heroines, both in and out of prison, they take to the courtroom to fight for reparations. But no one believes them. As additional damning evidence is uncovered by the Center for Investigative Reporting, a media frenzy and series of hearings provide hope for some semblance of justice. Yet, doctors and prison officials contend that the procedures were in each person’s best interest and of an overall social benefit. Invoking the weight of the historic stain and legacy of eugenics, BELLY OF THE BEAST presents a decade long, infuriating contemporary legal drama.\N\NPlease note that there is no disabled parking immediately next to the Lost Eden Gallery. For parking information, please visit: https://atthegateway.com/visit-explore/getting-here/\N\NTraditional bathroom are available across the street. A single stall accessible bathroom is available for disabled individuals on site. \N\NMasks are strongly encouraged.

They fought their enslavers throughout the Americas. And then they were erased from history.\N\NWake tells the “riveting” (Angela Y. Davis) story of Dr. Rebecca Hall, a historian, granddaughter of slaves, and a woman haunted by the legacy of slavery. The accepted history of slave revolts has always told her that enslaved women took a back seat. But Rebecca decides to look deeper, and her journey takes her through old court records, slave ship captain’s logs, crumbling correspondence, and even the forensic evidence from the bones of enslaved women from the “negro burying ground” uncovered in Manhattan. She finds women warriors everywhere.\N\NUsing a “remarkable blend of passion and fact, action and reflection” (NPR), Rebecca constructs the likely pasts of Adono and Alele, women rebels who fought for freedom during the Middle Passage, as well as the stories of women who led slave revolts in Colonial New York. We also follow Rebecca’s own story as the legacy of slavery shapes her life, both during her time as a successful attorney and later as a historian seeking the past that haunts her.\N\NIllustrated beautifully in black and white, Wake will take its place alongside classics of the graphic novel genre, like Marjane Satrapi’s Persepolis and Art Spiegelman’s Maus. This story of a personal and national legacy is a powerful reminder that while the past is gone, we still live in its wake.\N\NThis event is made possible with support from the Charles Redd Center, Sema Hadithi, Park City Library, Dixie State University - Department of English and Utah Humanities.

After each pair of readings, the judges — focused on literary merit, performance and intangibles — take turns spouting hilarious, off-the-wall commentary about each story, then select their favorite to advance to the finals.\N\NThe two finalists then compete in the Literary Death Match finale, which trades in the show’s literary sensibility for an absurd and comical climax to determine who takes home the Literary Death Match crown.\N\NIt may sound like a circus — and that's half the point. Literary Death Match is passionate about inspecting new and innovative ways to present text off the page, and the most fascinating part about the LDM is how seriously attentive the audience is during each reading. We've called this the great literary ruse: an audacious and inviting title, a harebrained finale, but in-between the judging creates a relationship with the viewer as a judge themselves.\N\NOur ultimate goal is to perform the Literary Death Match all over the world, and to continue to showcase literature as a brilliant, unstoppable medium.\N\NThis event is made possible with support from Utah Humanities, Good Company Theatre, and Weber Book Links.

DESCRIPTION:Utah Poetry Slam welcomes you to a writing workshop at the Legendarium with Guante!\N\NFor more info, please contact @utahpoetryslam on Instagram.\N\NKyle Tran Myhre (also known as Guante) is a poet, educator, and activist based in Minneapolis, MN. His work explores the relationships between narrative, power, and resistance, and he’s performed everywhere from the United Nations, to music festivals like Eaux Claires and Soundset, to countless colleges, universities, and conferences. He’s also been part of two National Poetry Slam championship teams, given a TEDx Talk, and published two books via Button Poetry.\N\NWhether writing about men’s roles in ending gender violence, challenging dominant narratives related to race and racism, or just telling stories about the different jobs he’s had, Tran Myhre strives to cultivate a deeper, more critical engagement with social justice issues, one based in both empathy and agency. An educator as well as a performing artist, Tran Myhre completed his Masters studies at the University of Minnesota with a focus on spoken word, critical pedagogy, and social justice education; in that spirit, his performances use poems as jumping-off points for authentic dialogue, critical thinking, and community-building.\N\NThis event is made possible with support from Utah Humanities, Utah Poetry Slam, and Mark of the Beastro.

An educator as well as a performing artist, Tran Myhre completed his Masters studies at the University of Minnesota with a focus on spoken word, critical pedagogy, and social justice education; in that spirit, his performances use poems as jumping-off points for authentic dialogue, critical thinking, and community-building.<br /><br />This event is made possible with support from Utah Humanities, Utah Poetry Slam, and Mark of the Beastro.

DESCRIPTION:The 2023 Utah Poetry Festival will feature readings from Utah poets, and craft panels on poetry and poetics. \N\NIn this panel, organizers will discuss the ways that prose and poetry borrow each other's tools, swap crayons, trade outfits: prose can be musical, metrical even, and poetry can have plot and characters. But when does one become the other? Where does the prose poem fit, or the novel-in-verse? Jean-Paul Sartre claimed that "Poetry creates the myth, the prose writer draws its portrait." If the line between the genres is fluid, why attempt to draw a line at all? Come and find out! Panelists Lance Larsen, Sunni Wilkinson, and Jason Olsen, moderated by Michael Lavers.

DESCRIPTION:From the Mahābhārata and Homer’s Iliad, to Wilfred Owen’s depictions of trench warfare in World War I, to the protest poetry of the 1960s against the War in Vietnam, poetry and war have had a long and complicated history of engagement. With the background of the ongoing and wars in Ukraine, Palestine, and elsewhere, this panel considers the role of poetry in a time of war, which once celebrated war and warriors but more recently has taken up the voice of protest, testimony, and resistance. How do we write about war?  Who can write about different wars? What are the moral imperatives and risks?  What kinds of poetry are best suited for this task?  How do we distinguish poetry from editorializing?

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:From the Mahābhārata and Homer’s Iliad, to Wilfred Owen’s depictions of trench warfare in World War I, to the protest poetry of the 1960s against the War in Vietnam, poetry and war have had a long and complicated history of engagement. With the background of the ongoing and wars in Ukraine, Palestine, and elsewhere, this panel considers the role of poetry in a time of war, which once celebrated war and warriors but more recently has taken up the voice of protest, testimony, and resistance. How do we write about war?  Who can write about different wars? What are the moral imperatives and risks?  What kinds of poetry are best suited for this task?  How do we distinguish poetry from editorializing?

DESCRIPTION:Unlike writing poetry, revision is about re-writing or deleting lines of poetry. Sometimes it feels like treason to take things out of a poem that you “carefully” put into it. However, revision is best thought of as a craft of writing, in the same category as metaphor, meter, form and using line breaks. To paraphrase William Faulkner, you must be brave enough to eliminate your darlings.\N\NPanelists: Harmony Button, Cindy King, Mario Chard. Moderated by Maureen Clark.

DESCRIPTION:Through guided meditation, free-writing sessions, and compassionate witnessing, we’ll explore the stories we carry and the ones waiting to emerge.\NThis immersive workshop blends mindfulness and creative writing to help participants reconnect with their own voice, attention, and sense of belonging. Through guided meditation, free-writing sessions, and compassionate witnessing, we’ll explore the stories we carry and the ones waiting to emerge.

DESCRIPTION:Charles Dickens published A Christmas Carol in 1843, and it was an immediate sensation. It continues to shape our traditions and understanding of the Holiday Season--and of the possibilities of human growth. We’ve all seen film and stage productions of this memorable story, many of them successful and moving, but for this talk we’ll go back to the written text to enrich our appreciation of Dickens’ popular and consequential work. Its theme of festivity in a society divided between rich and poor is resonant for us today, and we’ll perhaps discover more about Dickens' vision through a return to the remarkable energies of his fictional prose.\N
