    Contact: Reference Desk   412-531-1912   events@mtlebanonlibrary.org
    Kentuck Knob was designed in 1954 by American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, for I.N. and Bernadine Hagan, of Uniontown, PA. Lord Peter Palumbo, of London, England, purchased the masterpiece in 1986. Since its opening for public tours in 1996, Kentuck Knob has been visited by more than 300,000 people. The hi-end Usonian style home was designated a National Historic Landmark in June 2000.

The house is situated just below the crest of Kentuck Knob, a hill overlooking the Youghiogheny River gorge in the beautiful Laurel Highlands of western Pennsylvania. It is located east of Uniontown, and the property sits just 7 miles from Fallingwater, and thirty miles from Duncan House.

Spectacular views and a natural woodland setting enhance the extraordinary, organic architecture and landscaping. A sculpture park features work by contemporary artists Goldsworthy, Oldenburg, Rickey, Bertoia, Caro and others.

Join Kentuck Knob Director of Marketing and Events Patricia Coyle as she takes you on a virtual tour of this hidden Western Pennsylvania treasure. [About the Discovery Series]

misc_trowel 7:00 PM  -  8:30 PM Backyard Composting    
    Contact: PA Resources Council   412-431-4449 X325   laurens@ccicenter.org
    BE GREEN: Composting is nature’s way of recycling. By utilizing the natural process of decomposition, organic materials often considered “waste,” such as grass clippings, food scraps, autumn leaves and even paper, can be recycled back into a rich soil conditioner. Through this transition, soil organisms, many of which are too small to see, break down the organic material in a compost pile so that valuable plant nutrients can be released for future generations of plants to use. Composting helps you reduce your waste stream, it improves the health of your gardens, and most of all its easy to do and enjoyable.

This workshop thoroughly covers the importance of composting, setting up a compost pile, proper maintenance and ways of using finished compost. Participants will receive an Earth Machine Compost Bin with attendance. This bin, approved across the state as an ideal bin for urban and suburban areas, has an eighty-gallon capacity.

Cost: $40 Single/$50 Couple (Includes one compost unit per registration) [BE GREEN Programs]

ent_drum3 7:00 PM  -  8:45 PM Discover the Latin Influences in American Popular Music    
    Contact: Reference Desk   412-531-1912   events@mtlebanonlibrary.org
    Over the past century, Latin music has been the greatest outside influence on popular music styles in the United States. Virtually all of the major popular forms—Tin Pan Alley, stage and film music, jazz, rhythm-and-blues, country music, rock—have been affected throughout their development by the idioms of South America, Cuba, or Mexico. Moreover, these Latin ingredients have gained in strength over the years. Not only does the standard repertory contain a significant representation of tunes of Latin-American origin or inspiration, but the whole rhythmic basis of popular music has become to some extent Latinized. Some of this “Latinization” has also influenced the ballet, symphony and Broadway music of Leonard Bernstein and Aaron Copland.

Over three evening sessions, we will identify and illustrate important Latin contributions to American music, starting with the clave rhythms used in the “danza habanera” (from the early 19th century) and ending with electronic experiments in Cuban jazz at the close of the twentieth century.

For some, many of the musical examples will seem rather familiar. However, concepts will be introduced and examples played that will represent for some a journey into the unknown. John Bauerlein will be your host on this musical Discovery series journey through Latin America. [About the Discovery Series]

    After serving as a dramaturge for a college theatre production of the Who's rock opera Tommy, David A. George, author of self-help book Be Unique, Be You, and Live! was recently diagnosed with a mild highly-functional case of Asperger's Syndrome, a spectrum disorder of autism.

Be Unique, Be You, and Live! is a partially autobiographical book of how George struggled with a severe learning disability and ADD. Yet he succeeded while attending college and went on to graduate school.

Join David George and learn more about how crucial it is for persons with Asperger's to develop better social skills in order to develop their full potential.
