SUMMARY:Twilight Talks & Presentations Series: Knit As To Turn Water
DESCRIPTION:* Pre-registration is advised \nKnit As To Turn Water: The History of New England’s Maritime Knitting. \nIt followed the fish\, the flight paths of immigrants\, the sea-lanes of war: the knitted clothing of New England reflects maritime cultures the world over. Rich with origin mythology and salty with sailors’ yarns\, garments like nippers\, half-handers\, and the infamous fisherman’s sweater each hold a romantic yet real place in our coastal history. Explore knitting a WWI submariner’s outfit with the Navy League! Imagine learning to knit with a pair of whalebone needles you carved yourself! Join Rebecca Bayreuther\nDonohue\, historian & knitter\, for an ode to wool and marvel once again at how the sea connects us all. A PowerPoint chronology comes to life with examples of breed-specific yarns and recreated garments. \nRebecca Bayreuther Donohue of Niantic has knit historical garments in between setting sails aboard New Bedford whalers\, splitting codfish aboard Grand Banks fishing schooners\, and lounging on O’Day Mariners. After more than 20 years at a major Connecticut maritime museum\, she co-founded the Dirty Blue Shirts living history collective\, whose participatory programs encompass everything from historic fashion & foodways to maritime culture & shipboard skills. Rebecca’s personal interest in historical\nhand-knitting stems from always being cold\, no matter what century she’s interpreting. With all the plastic in today’s oceans\, she thinks it’s time to revisit wool as the preeminent fiber of sustainability\,\nversatility\, and global community. \nDonations will be accepted at the Door – CLICK HERE TO REGISTER

SUMMARY:Investment Group
DESCRIPTION:Bring your questions and concerns to the Litchfield Investing Group meeting on the third Tuesday of every month at 6:00PM. \nInvesting does not need to be complex or uncertain. Learn to manage your own investments whether you have $1\,000 or $1\,000\,000 using publicly available computerized investing methods for a fraction of the cost of a professional money manager with returns consistently better than the S&P 500 or the Aggregate Bond Index. All while having a life beyond investing and sleeping soundly. \nA professional money manager will charge 0.75% to 1.5% of your assets to manage a $500\,000 account\, but is not interested in managing lesser amounts. Robo-advisors charge 0.08% to 1.5% depending on account size and services to manage your account and can manage accounts as small as $100. \nThe methods discussed require only a computer\, no specialized investing knowledge\, average intelligence\, access to the internet\, and the self-discipline to follow proven methods.

SUMMARY:Hearing Screening
DESCRIPTION:Cost: FREE\, Donation Welcome* \nCall 860-567-8302 to book an appointment. \nHearing Care Centers offers a comprehensive hearing screening is a series of tests that assess an individual’s ability to hear sounds and understand speech. The screening typically includes a range of tests such as pure-tone audiometry\, speech audiometry\, and middle ear testing. The purpose of the screening is to determine whether an individual has any hearing loss and the extent of the hearing loss. \nComprehensive hearing screening is important because hearing loss can have a significant impact on an individual’s quality of life. It can affect an individual’s ability to communicate effectively\, participate in social activities\, and perform daily tasks. Early detection of hearing loss can help prevent these negative impacts by allowing for prompt treatment\, such as hearing aids or cochlear implants\, which can improve an individual’s ability to hear and communicate. Additionally\, early detection of hearing loss can help identify any underlying medical conditions that may be causing the hearing loss and allow for timely treatment of those conditions. Overall\, comprehensive hearing screening is an important tool in maintaining overall health and wellbeing.

SUMMARY:Beethoven's "Eroica" by David Stein
DESCRIPTION:Beethoven’s third symphony was the “Eroica\,” a huge\, marvelous and joyful expression of heroism and hope. It was written by the young composer during wartime as he emerged from an earlier state of despair. His Fifth Symphony is more famous perhaps\, but the “Eroica” was the most groundbreaking and influential. In fact\, it has been called by many conductors the greatest of all symphonies; it opened new realms of human imagination and became the foundation-stone for the Romantic century of Schumann\, Brahms and Mahler. In this session we will explore the first movement\, a “hero’s journey” in music\, to hear how it depicts formidable obstacles bravely overcome\, and how Beethoven unifies a vast range of emotion and subjective experience and draws the listener in to participate in the adventure. \nFREE/donations welcome \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER
