SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:St. Luke’s Church and the Jamestown Public and Mobile Market are teaming up with the Chautauqua Area Potters to host the Empty Bowl Project in Jamestown on Saturday\, December 9th. \n“Empty Bowls” is an annual fund raising event held all over the world. Potters everywhere gather to create hundreds of one of a kind ceramic bowls that are given to persons willing to make a modest contribution to a local charity serving food to the hungry. \nLocally\, this event is sponsored by Chautauqua Area Potters (CAP)\, a loosely organized assembly of the area’s amateur and professional potters. Many of these individuals work together at Mudslingers\, the pottery studio owned and operated by Ron Nasca in downtown Fredonia. Others in the group work in their own studios. Over the years the fund drive has met with growing success in Fredonia and now it is coming to Jamestown. \nWhile numerous individuals have created the hundreds of beautiful\, one of a kind bowls\, none are signed by the maker. Instead\, they are imprinted with the “Empty Bowls” logo thus continuing to remind the user that there are hungry persons in the world. The bowls come in sizes designed to acknowledge contributions of $10\, $20\, and $30. \nDuring the Season of Advent when many are preparing for the holiday season and looking for the perfect Christmas gift\, this event will allow you to come get in the holiday season with bowl of soup\, live music\, the opportunity to walk away with a one of a kind gift AND to help address food insecurity in our own community.

SUMMARY:Shaker Song Night
DESCRIPTION:Founded in 1774\, the Shakers are one of America’s oldest religious communities. When you think of the Shakers\, you might think of Shaker furniture\, Shaker boxes\, or the much loved hymn Simple Gifts. In fact\, there are over 10\,000 Shaker songs\, encompassing a variety of styles and topics. \nWho are the Shakers? Why is music so important to them? Are we singing Simple Gifts wrong? \nJoin Sei Paulson at 6pm on Friday\, November 17th in the undercroft\, and get answers to all these questions and more. Sei will share songs and a presentation\, including pictures from her year living with the Sabbathday Lake Shakers in Maine. We will also learn several Shaker hymns. NO musical skill is required\, and you will NOT need to read music! Shaker music is about creating union\, so everyone is welcome. Refreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:For the Love of Beethoven
DESCRIPTION:For those of you that do not already know\, our directors have an affinity for Beethoven. This\, despite their comfort era being Baroque. Beethoven’s music speaks in such a special way. \nIt presents your ears with a complexity that is rooted in emotion and moodiness. Hearing Beethoven is like being in love. \nOur directors have invited Deena Winters (pianist) to play the incredibly beautiful and heartbreaking piano trio known famously as Beethoven’s Ghost Trio. Playing and listening to this piece live will be an incredible treat. Please join us!

SUMMARY:Environmental "green" - how our ecological and economic health can only improve collaboratively
DESCRIPTION:A point that is often missed by those who are not in the conservation field\, is that smart conservation is an essential piece of planning for smart economic growth. Because let’s face it: if we were to jeopardize our quality of life by harming our most precious natural resources\, who would want to live or plan a future here? The great news is that\, when comparing our county’s environmental health against much of the rest of the country\, we are in good shape. We are not routinely threatened by forest fires\, hurricanes\, droughts\, or floods. Our water quality is top grade\, and our landscape supports abundant agriculture and lush forests. Pretty great! Now\, the smart thing is to not only acknowledge those strengths\, but to also put in place policies to ensure that we can sustainably maintain our environmental health in this rapidly changing world\, while also making improvements where needed. Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy’s director of conservation\, Twan Leenders\, will discuss the work that CWC is doing to accomplish just that.\n\nTwan Leenders is the Director of Conservation at the Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy (https://chautauquawatershed.org). He served 10 years at the Roger Tory Peterson Institute of Natural History in Jamestown\, NY (www.rtpi.org). He previously was the conservation biologist for the Connecticut Audubon Society. Twan is a Curatorial Affiliate in Vertebrate Zoology at Yale University’s Peabody Museum of Natural History. He is a professional herpetologist and enthusiastic wildlife photographer\, with over twenty years of field experience in Central America. Twan recently authored ‘Amphibians of Costa Rica – A Field Guide’ and the companion volume ‘Reptiles of Costa Rica – A Field Guide’\, both published by Cornell University Press.

SUMMARY:Fresh Water Plastic Pollution: The Plastic Paradox
DESCRIPTION:Plastic provides a real paradox in the world of material science. It is incredibly strong but without the mass that similar strength materials usually possess. In addition\, it is very moldable so that you can contort it into a myriad of common place\, super-utilitarian items. The versatility and durability of plastic allow it to be used in place of a myriad of natural materials\, but these same features make it an environmental bane. Here we will explore this paradox and what it means for the waters we love so much. Much attention has been paid to plastic as an oceans issue\, but increasingly we are finding that plastic flows through freshwater systems on its way from land to sea. Come hear from one of the foremost experts in the field of Freshwater Plastic Pollution.\n\nDr. Sherri A. Mason (aka “Sam”) earned her bachelor’s degree from the University of Texas at Austin. She completed her doctorate in Chemistry at the University of Montana as a NASA Earth System Science scholar. While a Professor of Chemistry at SUNY Fredonia\, her research group was among the first to study the prevalence and impact of plastic pollution within freshwater ecosystems.\n\nSam has been featured within hundreds of mass media articles including the BBC\, The Guardian\, the New York Times\, the Huffington Post\, and National Public Radio’s All Things Considered and Studio A1. Her work formed the basis for the Microbeads-Free Water Act\, which was signed into law by President Obama in December 2015. Similar legislation has been approved or is being considered at various locations internationally.\n\nAmong her accolades Dr. Mason has been awarded:\n\nEPA Environmental Champion in 2016;\nExcellence in Environmental Research by the Earth Month Network in 2017\nHeinz Award in Public Policy in 2018\nGreat Lakes Leadership Award from the Great Lakes Protection Fund in 2021\n\nShe currently serves as the Director of Sustainability at Penn State Erie\, The Behrend College.
