SUMMARY:Explore to Learn: Art of Remembering: Songs of the Adirondacks
DESCRIPTION:Explore to Learn: Art of Remembering: Songs of the Adirondacks with Jesse Bowman Bruchac on Saturday\, August 16th\, 12:00–1:00pm!\n\n\n Free with a suggested donation! https://secure.lglforms.com/…/s/qKuPnxkpqeqYVVHd75eouw…\n\n\n Join Jesse for a music-centered workshop featuring songs of the Adirondacks\, weaving together Indigenous traditions\, language\, and the rich logging-era songs preserved in the Bruchac family.\n\n\n Accompanied by Native American hand drum\, flute\, rattle\, and the contemporary acoustic guitar\, Jesse will transport you through time with each melody. Stories—traditional\, folk\, and historical—will bring context to the music\, offering a deeper connection to the history of this land and one of its first Indigenous languages\, Algonquian.\n\n\n This workshop is for everyone\, no matter your age or experience. Bring your kids\, your grandparents\, or just yourself!\n\n\n A little bit about Jesse Bruchac! For three decades\, Jesse has been immersed in Algonquian language reclamation efforts. He is the founder and director of the School of Abenaki at Middlebury College and the Assistant Director of the Ndakinna Education Center. He first gained fluency in the Eastern Algonquian Abenaki language\, learning it directly from the last generation of first-language speakers in the 1990s. He has since worked in language reclamation efforts with several other Eastern Algonquian languages\, including Penobscot\, Lenni Lenape\, Delaware (Munsee and Unami)\, Mohican (Mahican)\, Mohegan-Pequot\, and Quiripi-Unquachog. He is currently involved in the reawakening of previously dormant Virginia Algonquian languages.

SUMMARY:Joseph Bruchac to Launch New Book Called Dawn Land
DESCRIPTION:Joseph Bruchac to Launch New Book Called Dawn Land – Mark you calendar now! You don’t want to miss this ZOOM presentation by this nationally acclaimed Abenaki author.\nRemembering The Dawn Land:\nA presentation on the historical novel Dawn Land by its author\, Joseph Bruchac\nThe area we now refer to as Western New England has been the homeland of Native people for at least 10\,000 years. Relying on oral traditions and the related elements of natural history\, archaeology\, cultural survival\, indigenous language\, and the living land itself\, the author takes us back to that ancient time. The heart of the story is the hero’s journey\, with his faithful dogs by his side\, of the book’s main character Young Hunter. The program will include discussion of how the novel — and its main characters — came to be\, the telling of some of the stand alone stories from the book\, and a Q&A session at the end.\n\nAward-winning author\, storyteller\, and musician\, Joseph Bruchac has published work in virtually every genre since his first collection of poetry in 1971. The author of over 180 books\, his novel Code Talker was recently listed by Time magazine as one of the 100 best YA books of all time. His experiences include three years of volunteer teaching in West Africa\, eight years of running a college program inside a maximum security prison\, and half a century of studying and teaching such martial arts as pentjak-silat and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. The current Poet Laureate of Saratoga Springs\, New York\, he’s the Executive Director of the Ndakinna Education Center\, a licensed wildlife rehabilitator\, and an enrolled citizen of the Nulhegan Abenaki tribe.\nAll opinions expressed by the Program Presenters are solely their current opinions and do not reflect the opinions of the program hosts\, program partners\, and sponsors. \n\nRegister in advance for this meeting:\nWhen: April 4 @ 6:00 pm – 8:30 pm Eastern Time (US and Canada)\n \nhttps://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJUkfu6orjMjHtHiJqUk9YFqIA5Qbxt0iN2B \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. \nThis event is FREE\, but donations are appreciated.  \nQuestions?
