Mat Pilates is a full body toning class challenging the core. Pilates uses body weight to strengthen muscles and increase flexibility. All that is required is a mat, water, and hand towel.

Tranquility Yoga is a class designed for all shapes, sizes, and fitness levels. The class focuses on breathing fully, deeply, and in coordination with movements of your limbs. Emphasis will be placed upon postures that aide in reducing stress and anxiety through activating the parasympathetic nervous system. By soothing the nervous system and calming the mind, stress hormone levels will decline allowing a physically stress-free state to be re-established. Give yourself permission to restore, relax and revitalize.

WE NEVER LEFT celebrates contemporary artists descended from American Indians who, against all odds, remained in the Southeast. They are members of tribes who continue to live in Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. Their highly diverse artwork addresses a variety of issues, including cultural preservation, language revitalization, personal identity and expression, community pride, and threats to homeland and the natural environment.

For children ages 3 and under with a favorite adult. Join us for a musical rhyming adventure that
encourages interaction between babies and caregivers. Infants and toddlers will develop pre-reading and social skills through songs, stories, and games. Stay after to play with friends.

Newspapers can offer vital clues about your family, for time periods not covered by
"the usual sources." They also help add detail to an otherwise bare family tree.

Several different commercial websites as well as several free ones make it possible
to research historical papers. This talk will show how to conduct searches on
several different platforms, some tips and tricks to get better results, and how to
find the newspapers of most interest to you.

Free program. Free parking is available. All are welcome!

In this exhibition of roughly 100 portraits, Shepherd re-presents people from the media cycle from 2017 through last week. We see criminals, victims of crime, politicians, heroes, artists and others caught up in the press, drawn equally.

There are many reasons to buy local, but the best reason is flavor. Food that doesn’t travel as far is fresher. In Downtown State College, seasonal eating is just a short walk away with farmers markets twice a week, and our independently owned restaurants which use locally grown and sourced food. Our markets are attended by a selection of local farms and artisans.

Small local farms are more likely to use sustainable farming practices and to grow a wider variety of crops. The heirloom seeds that your neighboring farmer grows will remind you what tomatoes (or green beans, potatoes, peppers, and other fruits and vegetables) used to taste like. They will also remind you that there is more than one kind of each, as local farms grow fruits and vegetables that are unique and inspirational to cook with.

Visit any of our markets and find: dozens of local fruit and veggie farmers; local cheeses, meats, and eggs; flowers, herbs, plants and soaps; delicious ready-to-eat baked goods, jams, honey, and lots more.

The markets take place on Tuesdays and Fridays from 11:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on the 100 block of Locust Lane. Participating farmers are required to personally produce everything they sell. The markets start outdoors the first week of May and run through the beginning of November.

Harlem 100: Celebrating the 100th Anniversary
of the Harlem Renaissance
featuring Mwenso and The Shakes
with special guests Brianna Thomas, Michela Marino Lerman, and Vuyo Sotashe

7:30 pm Tuesday, October 22, 2019

Eisenhower Auditorium

A century after one of the most culturally significant periods in human history, Harlem is in the midst of a resurging creative movement sparked by the centenarian embers left by the wildfire that was the Harlem Renaissance. That era has since proven to be an unrivaled period of brilliance in both intelligent expression and preeminent entertainment.

Created in collaboration with the National Jazz Museum in Harlem, Harlem 100 captures the sights and sounds of Harlem when legendary artists such as Fats Waller, Duke Ellington, Langston Hughes, and Billie Holiday made Harlem the cultural center of the country.

Hosted by Wynton Marsalis-mentored bandleader and singer Michael Mwenso, the multimedia show presents the most exciting Harlem musicians and dancers in a modern variety show. It pays homage to the presentations made famous in the Apollo Theater, the Cotton Club, and other celebrated venues of the Harlem Renaissance.

“Code-switching through a broad lexicon of social music with maximum commitment, minimal irony, and an attitude of fun is the Shakes’ default mode, whether they’re playing South African protest songs, holiday classics, Tin Pan Alley, the blues, or the Mwenso-penned tunes the Shakes will release commercially in … 2019,” writes a JazzTimes reviewer. “‘It’s theatre meets opera meets James Brown meets jazz meets total improvisation,’ says Brianna Thomas, who has sung alongside Mwenso on numerous occasions.”

Emergence [The Process of Coming into Being], the debut album by Mwenso and the Shakes, is scheduled for release in August.

Featuring the music of Waller, Ellington, Holiday, Bessie Smith, and Ethel Waters, Harlem 100 celebrates one of the most influential artistic movements of our country and gives insight into Harlem then and now.

Adult $48
University Park Student $15
18 and Younger $38
