SUMMARY:Financial Empowerment
DESCRIPTION:“How the Heck am I Going to Afford Eggs?” \nGrocery shopping can be intimidating. These days\, we all face challenges in our day to day lives when it comes to paying our bills\, affording life\, and still being able to enjoy ourselves with family and friends. Please consider joining Julie (from Mascoma Bank) and Chris (from SEVCA) for a light meal and conversation about facing these challenges and finding resources and solutions to the things we are all dealing with during these interesting times. Questions can be asked and the presenters will do their best to answer them and to offer a cooperative environment to talk about subjects which can often be difficult. This is a space to talk about banking\, personal finance\, and the resources that might be available to you in our communities. \nDinner from 6-6:30 with conversation from 6:30 to 7:30PM. \nWe hope to see you there!

SUMMARY:Gifted Women Writers of the Gilded Age: A Women’s History Month Presentation with Elayne Clift\, M.A.
DESCRIPTION:“But I shouldn’t have thought anything in your life worth writing about”\n“The Artist’s most essential quality is masterly execution”\n“To write\, one must have a penetrative imagination” \nIs it any wonder that progressive women writers born in the Gilded Age\, which spanned the second half of the 19th century into the early 19th century\, began to look at the world through the lens of gender and put pen to paper? Beginning with an overview of the Gilded Age\, this Women’s History Month event explores women writers who pioneered a body of literature that provided insight into key issues that re-shaped America in critical ways. Their stories\, novels\, essays and social criticism continue to inspire women writers and readers as they offer models that lead to an equal\, fair\, and humane world. \nElayne Clift is an award-winning writer\, lecturer and workshop leader. Her work has appeared in various periodicals\, newspapers\, magazines\, and anthologies. She is a columnist for several New England newspapers and has published memoirs and poetry\, short stories\, and anthology collections. She has taught women’s studies\, literature and other humanities courses at several colleges and universities and currently facilitates reading\, writing and discussion groups with adult participants at continuing education programs.

SUMMARY:Brattleboro 250 Planning Sessions
DESCRIPTION:Come and connect with others who are interested in working on plans to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States in 2026. \nThis monthly meeting space on the 4th Wednesdays is dedicated for those who would like the opportunity to connect\, collaborate\, and work on projects that align with Vermont’s 250th Anniversary Commission’s mission to “…inspire all Vermonters to learn from the history\, legacy\, and context of the past to build strong Vermont communities for the future.” \nThe space is being hosted by Brooks Memorial Library\, Vermont Independent Media (The Commons) and Windham World Affairs Council\, with support from the Vermont Humanities Council. We are already working together on a collaboration entitled\, ‘Examining American Identity and Leadership in a Changing World – and have joined America 250\, a national initiative asking communities to plan for how to commemorate the 250th year of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Its mission is to provide opportunities for all Americans to pause and reflect on our nation’s past & present\, honor the contributions of all Americans\, and look to the future we want to create for the next generation and beyond.
