SUMMARY:Healing Hooves Fundraiser - Come for a fun afternoon of live music\, raffles and food!
DESCRIPTION:Acts of Hesed Farm is a tax-exempt charitable organization dedicated to providing equine assisted therapy and equine assisted learning to underserved populations. Since its inception two and a half years ago\, Acts of Hesed has served over 100 individuals\, including veterans\, at-risk youth\, and elders. We have had two cohorts of students from middle schools in Holyoke attend an after-school program at our farm! \nThe profound impact of our work is evident in the stories of those we have helped\, and I believe sharing our mission with others amplifies our reach and support. \nWe are hosting our 2nd annual Healing Hooves fundraiser\, Saturday August 10th.  Live Music and lunch will be provided!  We are looking for corporate sponsorship to support our ongoing efforts\, gifts of any size help. The cost of your ticket\, $50 per person\, helps to cover the expenses associated with putting on this event but also care for our animals\, provide equine therapy sessions to those who cannot afford it and enable us to expand our reach and serve even more individuals in our community.  We hope to see you there!

SUMMARY:Project Eagle: The Top-Secret Operation that sent Polish Spies behind German Lines
DESCRIPTION:Meet the author of the new book: Project Eagle: The Top-Secret Operation that sent Polish Spies behind German Lines during World War Two. \nAfter the Germans had surprised Allied troops at the beginning of the Battle of the Bulge in 1944\, the OSS (Office of Strategic Services–forerunner of the CIA) revamped its intelligence operations in Europe and began enlisting the cooperation of volunteers from occupied countries for wartime intelligence-gathering operations. As part of Project Eagle\, Polish soldiers were recruited and trained to go behind the lines of the Third Reich. Project Eagle tells this fascinating World War II story of intelligence and espionage that until now has been hidden away in the archives of the OSS. Professor Micgiel will tell us more about this history and his research on this special visit to Holyoke on September 9. Sponsored by the Holyoke History Room.  Info: (413) 420-8107 \nJohn S. Micgiel was born and raised in Holyoke.  His academic career led him to serve as director of the Institute on East Central Europe\, associate director of the Harriman Institute\, executive director of the Institute for the Study of Europe\, and adjunct professor of international and public affairs—all at Columbia University. He is past president of the Kosciuszko Foundation\, which promotes cultural exchange between the United States and Poland. In 2011 he received the Commander’s Cross of the Order of Merit of the Republic of Poland\, an award honoring service to the Polish-American community. Now retired from Columbia University\, Micgiel teaches at the University of Warsaw and makes his home in Connecticut.

SUMMARY:In Conversation with Barry Moser:  Part of the Legacy Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Wistariahurst Museum is honoring the 150th Anniversary of this historic building’s relocation to City of Holyoke which occurred in 1874. This fall\, we invite guests to participate in our Legacy Seminar Series to learn more about events\, exhibits and structures which have impacted the building\, the community and the arts. \nJoin us on September 10th with guest artist\, Barry Moser as he discusses illustration\, wood engraving\, printing\, andhis work through his eyes as a working artist. As a professor of art and an illustrator with a portfolio of over 300 titles\, Moser’s vast experience in printing\, painting\, printmaking\, designing\, writing\, essay writing\, and teaching offers a deep understanding of the dedication required for visual artwork. In conversation with Wistariahurst curator\, Penni Martorell guests will be welcome to reflect and ask questions about the creative processes involved in Moser’s complex illustrations. In 1977\, 1982 and 1984 Moser exhibited his wood engraving work at Wistariahurst highlighting his prints for Alice through the Looking Glass and What She Found There\, and Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Now\, nearly fifty years later we are happy to welcome him back to reflect on his work. \nWhether you are a long-time resident or a newcomer eager to learn more about the place you now call home\, these seminars provide a perfect opportunity to connect with the past and understand how it influences our present and future. Most importantly\, our Legacy Seminar Series is free and open to the public during event hours so that all can explore\, discover\, and engage with these unique topics.

SUMMARY:Reflections of the Flood with Elizabeth Sharpe: Part of the  Legacy Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Wistariahurst Museum is honoring the 150th Anniversary of this historic building’s relocation to City of Holyoke which occurred in 1874. This fall\, we invite guests to participate in our Legacy Seminar Series to learn more about events\, exhibits and structures which have impacted the building\, the community and the arts. \nOn September 17th\, Elizabeth Sharpe\, the author of “In the Shadow of the Dam: The Aftermath of the Mill River Flood of 1874\,” will discuss the the flood of 1874 and the events that led up to that tragic event. The incident claimed 139 lives and wiped out four mill villages in the area and marked the first significant dam failure in the United States. The aftermath saw William Skinner relocating his silk factory to Holyoke\, while the affected villages began the process of rebuilding. Sharpe will delve into the disaster’s impact\, the challenges faced in the aftermath\, the investigation to determine accountability\, and the pursuit of compensation. \nWhether you are a long-time resident or a newcomer eager to learn more about the place you now call home\, these seminars provide a perfect opportunity to connect with the past and understand how it influences our present and future. Most importantly\, our Legacy Seminar Series is free and open to the public during event hours so that all can explore\, discover\, and engage with these unique topics.

SUMMARY:Free Pipe Organ Concert
DESCRIPTION:A free recital is offered at the Holyoke UCC church by Dr. Klaus Becker\, UMASS professor and former Dean of the Springfield Chapter of the American Guild of Organists. He is offering this recital free of charge as a musical tour of northern Europe. \nA fire in his home destroyed the majority of the musical compositions by Marcel Lanquetuit\, principal organist of the Rouen Cathedral’s mighty Cavaille-Coll organ. Though no fire alarm will be set off at this concert\, nonetheless the grand and inspiring Toccata in D Major will call your attention to a colorful program. The tour begins in Normandy\, Northern France\, and you are invited to travel\, or rather go on pilgrimage\, to Leipzig\, Germany\, to pay homage to the great J. S. Bach with his grandiose Prelude and Fugue in D Major as well as the Fantasy and Fugue in in g minor. Continuing our trip\, you will visit Marco Enrico Bossi at the Como Cathedral in Northern Italy and listen to the magical and mysterious Scherzo in g minor. Rejuvenated\, we will arrive in Paris\, France\, to hear Eugene Gigout’s sparkling Toccata and his profound Grand Choeur Dialogue. After a brief excursion to Belgium for Joseph Jongen’s famous Toccata\, we will return to Paris to revel in Louis Vierne’s Final from his 6th Symphony. On the wings of this piece\, you may reach the tip of the Eiffel Tower. Klaus will play this program centering on the Romantic Period on the E.M. Skinner Opus 179 organ. This will be a memorable afternoon well worth attending! \nFree will donation received to benefit Holyoke food pantry.

SUMMARY:Book Discussion Group: Colonization and the Wampanoag Story by Linda Coombs | Week 1
DESCRIPTION:Join history and reading enthusiasts at Wistariahurst Museum on Tuesday evenings in October to read and discuss a different perspective of the beginning of the American story in Linda Coombs Colonization and the Wampanoag Story. As a way to expand our historical knowledge of Indigenous culture\, we will investigate a more inclusive narrative as we gather to share thoughts and consider a differing viewpoint. \nOur discussion group will meet on Tuesday evenings from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. in October with a Culminating event on Saturday afternoon\, November 9 with guest speaker Linda Coombs the author. \nWhen you think about the beginning of the American story\, what comes to mind? Three ships in 1492\, or perhaps buckled hats and shoes stepped off of the Mayflower\, ready to start a new country. But the truth is\, Christopher Columbus\, the Pilgrims\, and the Colonists didn’t arrive at a vast\, empty land ready to be developed. They arrived to find people and communities living in harmony with the land they had inhabited for thousands of years\, and they quickly disrupted everything they saw. From its “discovery” by Europeans to the first Thanksgiving\, the story of America’s earliest days has been carefully misrepresented. Colonization and the Wampanoag Story by Linda Coombs tells the story from the perspective of the New England Indigenous Nations that these outsiders found when they arrived\, this is the true story of how America as we know it today began. \nLinda Coombs (Aquinnah Wampanoag) is an author and historian from the Wampanoag Tribe of Aquinnah\, and lives in the Wampanoag community of Mashpee on Cape Cod\, MA. Coombs began her museum career in an internship at the Boston Children’s Museum\, and later worked there in the Native American Program. She and her colleague Paulla Dove Jennings (Narragansett) wrote children’s books for a museum series highlighting aspects of southern New England tribal cultures. Coombs also worked for 30 years in the Wampanoag Indigenous Program (WIP) of Plimoth Plantation\, including 15 years as WIP’s Associate Director; and 9 years at the Aquinnah Cultural Center. Presently she does independent museum consulting and cultural presentations. \nThanks to a generous donation of books from The Massachusetts Center for the Book’s Great Reads About Great Places program\, Wistariahurst has 13 copies of the book to loan out to participants on a first-come\, first-served basis. Great Reads titles celebrate our state’s unique culture and literary heritage\, inspiring local conversations and spurring engagement. \n  \nWeek #1: Tuesday\, October 1 having read pages 1-50 \nWeek #2: Tuesday\, October 8 having read pages 51 – 128 \nWeek #3: Tuesday\, October 15 having read pages 130 – 188 \nWeek #4: Tuesday\, October 22 having read pages 190 – end \nWeek #5: Saturday 11/9 Culminating Event with Guest Speaker Linda Coombs Author
