There have always been women composers. As far back as the seventh century BC, Sappho, the Greek lyric poetess, played her own accompaniments on the barbiton and the pektis. It is not until the end of the nineteenth century, however, that significantly more women begin to enjoy public performances of their music and become professional composers.
Music historian Jeffrey Engel will highlight the lives and the music of several distinguished female composers who attained recognition and success during the last decades of the nineteenth and the early ones in the twentieth centuries.

Every life holds many stories. Whether your life is wildly unconventional or relatively normal, there’s bound to be something fascinating about it. That’s why the contemporary memoir—everyday people telling their stories—has become such a popular phenomenon. A memoir covers an aspect of a life, a theme, or an adventure. Whether it’s a short piece
about, say, a bicycle ride with a friend, a book about your entire childhood, a marriage, growing older (or fatter), spiritual beliefs, etc.
In this four-hour workshop adults and teens will learn techniques for telling their stories with the guidance of writer Anne Gilman.

John Root presents a program on crop circles, designs that have been appearing with increasing sophistication during the past three decades in farmers’ fields and other locations all over the world. Layered weaving of plants in the fields as well as anatomical changes observed in these plants are presented as evidence of powerful and mysterious energies at work. Effects on electronic equipment, soils, animals, and human visitors are also described. Interpretations of these intricate and exquisite formations, many of which occur near sacred sites and refer to mystical traditions, are discussed as well.
Audiences are invited to share their reactions to these images and to speculate about how and why they are manifesting on our landscape. Handouts with recommended books and websites for further research are also offered to participants.
