You are invited to join us for one or both of these events this Sunday:
From 12:30-2:30 on Sunday, Nov. 18, Shape-Note Singing will be held in the Great Room.
This traditional style of singing began in colonial New England and was featured in the movie, Cold Mountain. It is a cappella, four-part harmony – and has been called "full-body, shout-it-out singing." (Unsurprisingly, there are no auditions.) Open to newcomers and experienced singers. Songbooks provided. Stop by to listen or sing, and leave whenever you wish. No fee.
At 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 18, Chief Don Stevens, of the Nulhegan Abenaki Tribe, will give a talk on the teachings of the Native American Circle of Life. If you can, stop by beforehand to view the Abenaki tribal artifacts which are on display in the Center's Great Room. It is really a wonderful exhibit.
The best times to see this exhibit in November are: Tues. after 2:30, Wed. after 3:00; Thurs. & Fri. after 12:30. Please note we close after lunch on Wed., Nov. 21 and reopen on Monday, Nov. 26 at 9 a.m.
And – do visit our brand new website at CHARLOTTESENIORCENTERVT.org for answers to many frequently asked questions, some history, a useful section on food and nutrition, volunteer opportunities, and more. Our Winter Schedule will be posted on Nov. 28, and it covers Dec., Jan., and Feb.
