UNC Asheville’s Department of History, the Vance Birthplace State Historic Site, the Thomas Wolfe Memorial State Historic Site, and the North Carolina Room at Pack Memorial Library will present a two-day symposium, You Have to Start a Thing: North Carolina Women Breaking Barriers, Sept. 12-13. The year 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage. The 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified on August 18, 1920, granted American women the right to vote. This 72-year battle began in July 1848 with the Seneca Falls Convention that fought for social, civil and religious rights of women. However, the passing of the 19th Amendment still did not grant suffrage for many women of color and immigrant women; that battle would continue on for decades. The symposium will celebrate the achievements of women in Western North Carolina and examine their impact on breaking down barriers in North Carolina and the nation.
This program is free and open to the public. Advanced registration is strongly encouraged. Seating capacity is limited.
The symposium will begin with a keynote by Dr. Valerie Ann Johnson, Mott Distinguished Professor of Women’s Studies and Director of Africana Women’s Studies at Bennett College in Greensboro, NC. at 6 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 12 in Pack Memorial Library’s Lord Auditorium. On Friday, Sept. 13, speakers will present throughout the day at Lord Auditorium beginning at 10 a.m., concluding at 5:00 p.m. The symposium will conclude with a reception from 5:30-6:30 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 13 at Cultivated Cocktails. Guests can sample local spirits and hear Dr. Dan Pierce’s talk, “Daring Amazonian Women: North Carolina Women Moonshiners.”
Instructor Dr. Todd Creasy discusses Six Sigma and Lean processes and the major differences between the two.
How to present yourself with poise
First impressions matter! Does the thought of introducing yourself make you nervous? Perhaps you aren’t quite sure what you should do or say? In the first part of this workshop, you’ll learn how to “meet and greet” with ease. We’ll explore the powerful nonverbal cues that signal confidence and credibility. You’ll also develop and practice a 30-second “elevator pitch” that can be tailored to a variety of situations. Making a positive first impression sets the stage for future success.
How to present your ideas with confidence
We don’t know if women are actually more scared of public speaking than men are, but we do know that women are more likely to express fears of public speaking. In the second half of this workshop, you’ll develop your command of the verbal, vocal and visual elements of public speaking. You’ll explore the power of storytelling, and build your speaking presence by developing and delivering a two-minute story.
Designed for women, our Powerful Women workshops provide a safe and supportive environment for women to freely share concerns, take risks and support each other through lively group interaction and constructive feedback.
To ensure ample opportunity for group exercises and presentation practice, enrollment is limited to 20 people.
Instructor: Dr. Betty Farmer
You can’t beat a walk with a friend over good conversation. So, why not take a walk with lots of friends and a history expert to boot? Buncombe County Libraries is excited to announce its Strolling Through History program focused on getting you moving while taking in some experiential history. “Each one of the strolls is a little different. We’ll talk about the evolution of the architecture, famous (or not quite so famous) residents, important events, and more,” explains Pack Memorial Librarian Katherine Calhoun Cutshall. “On our Haywood Street stroll, we talked about how the street has seen two major rebirths and discussed the careers of two WWI nurses who grew up on the street while it was mostly residential.”
Pack Librarians are always looking for innovative ways to showcase the library’s portfolio of initiatives and resources. “The North Carolina Room is a hidden gem in our library system, so programs like Strolling Through History bring the collection to the streets of downtown while showing off resources and programs in a fun new way,” notes Katherine. And of course, exercising your muscles and social skills are important at any age
So, how can you get involved with the monthly Strolling Through History? There are two versions: one for elder adults and one for babies and their caregivers. If you’re interested in participating, the elder adults strolls are the third Friday of every month, and the babies and caretakers strolls are the third Wednesday of every month (except July). All strolls will meet at Pack Memorial Library at 10:30 a.m., and participants should wear comfortable shoes and bring water to stay hydrated. Registration is required.
Friday Night- 6:30-8:30pm, Full Retreat (9/13 and 9/14)- 9:30am-5:30pm
Based his new book, Drinking from the River of Light, this Mark Nepo workshop will center on the lifelong process of listening, reflecting, and expressing, and on how bearing witness to the truth of living reveals the mysteries of life.
As no one can live without inhaling and exhaling, no one can live without feeling and expressing. The life of expression is how the heart breathes and how our spirit grows in the life that carries it. The life of feeling, dialogue, and writing, whatever form they take—poetry, story, memoir, or reflection—open us to a personal form of expression, a necessary conversation with the Universe that helps us move through obstacles and transitions. As meditation is an ancient art that deepens our relationship to how we breathe, writing and storytelling are ancient arts that deepen our relationship to all that matters. And just as the reward for practicing meditation is not that we’ll become great breathers but that we’ll become clear vessels of life-force, the reward for practicing a personal form of expression is not that we’ll become great writers or great storytellers but that such practice will help us be more resilient and wake closer to life.
In this Mark Nepo workshop, Mark will open a heart space through which participants can discover their own rhythms of expression. Through poetry, stories, and metaphors, Through reflection, journaling, and dialogue, each participant will have the chance to practice listening and expressing. We are constantly being shaped by life into finer instruments of care and expression. The deeper we go, the more attuned we become, and the more we join with everything around us. This workshop will help you to inhabit a personal form of expression, by which you can strengthen your connections and find your way.
Topics in this Mark Nepo workshop include “The Chord in Our Heart,” “What It Means to See,” “Bearing Witness,” “Unraveling the Self,” “Giving and Getting Attention,” “Breaking Surface,” “Understanding Practice,” and “Fitting Things Together.”
Mark Nepo is a poet and philosopher who has taught in the fields of poetry and spirituality for forty years. A New York Times #1 bestselling author, he has published fourteen books and recorded eight audio projects. Recent work includes: Reduced to Joy (2013), Seven Thousand Ways to Listen which won the 2012 Books for a Better Life Award, Staying Awake (2012), Holding Nothing Back (2012), As Far As the Heart Can See (2011), Finding Inner Courage (2011),and Surviving Has Made Me Crazy (2007), as well as audio books of The Book of Awakening, Finding Inner Courage, and As Far As the Heart Can See (2011). As a cancer survivor, Mark devotes his writing and teaching to the journey of inner transformation and the life of relationship.
