Scholarly Chat with Dr. Scott Butler
|
Join us at the Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum on November 17th at 6:00 P.M. for a scholarly chat with Dr. Scott Butler titled The World, North America and Mary Harris: 1690-1770. Dr. Butler is a man of research with a Ph.D. in Astrophysics, Quantum Mechanics, specializing in atomic physics, and a professional career in structured finance applied to corporate real estate. Dr. Butler will discuss Mary Harris, who was the earliest identifiable resident of the Coshocton area. Her life both spanned and was buffeted by major events in the world from about 1690 until perhaps 1770 or later. This talk will take known information about her and connect them to world events. Those events both shaped her life and carried her around northeastern North America. As a convert to Native American life, she wanted to be noticed and remembered and succeeded. All this will be documented in the talk and new information about her will be presented. At the conclusion of the chat, the winners of the 2022 Mary Harris Prizes essay contest will be announced and awards will be presented. Admission to the chat is $4 for adults, $3 for students, and free admission for Friends of the Museum members and participants of the Mary Harris Prizes Essay Contest.

Playing in the Emperor's Garden Qigong Classes at JHM, Instructed by Holli Rainwater
|
Every Wednesday Morning, 10:30 - 11:30 AM
Playing in the Emperor's Garden Qigong is inspired by a 19th century wall hanging in the Beyond Our Borders Exhibit at JHM called "One Hundred Children Playing in the Emperor's Garden." This image of children playing in the garden is popular in Chinese culture, going back to the 10th century. It represents the theme of family and prosperity, but can also represent good health, vitality, and a lighthearted spirit--all the good things that come to you when you practice qigong. |
