SUMMARY:NJMML - Carriers of Light and Labor: Painting Together Community Memories
DESCRIPTION:Join Monument Artist Michelle Angela Ortiz and the NJMML team for a textile-painting workshop\, where participants will have the chance to design and create their own fabric segments\, to be added to NJMML’s “Carriers of Light and Labor” installation.  \n— \nWorkshop participants will learn about the different textile-making traditions that immigrants and migrants brought with them to Paterson and other cities in northern New Jersey\, and how the textile industries that defined the region depended on immigrant labor for their growth. Participants will have a chance to design and paint fabric segments that reference personal and family histories of migration\, which they wish to see shared as part of Ortiz’s commemorative focus. \nParticipants are welcome to drop in anytime between 1:30 and 6:30PM. \nPaid parking is available at 125 Van Houten Street Garage located a short walk away. Other nearby options include the Center City Parking Garage (1 Ward St) and the Broadway Parking Garage (125 Broadway).  \nFind full information and RSVP to attend at https://njmml.com/activities/weaving-together-community-memories/.

SUMMARY:“This Sacred Soil” with Nancy B. Kennedy
DESCRIPTION:Past NJCH Grantee the Mahwah Museum will celebrate the Nation’s 250th anniversary year with Nancy B. Kennedy\, whose illustrated talk\, “This Sacred Soil\,” tells the often overlooked story of women in Revolutionary times.  \nReturn to 1776 when New Jersey enacted a surprising Constitution that allowed “all inhabitants” of the colony to vote\, opening the door for some women and free Black people to vote.  \nMeet these suffrage pioneers – some from this area – who went to the polls for 31 years\, until they were stripped of the vote in 1807.  Then\, take a whirlwind tour around the 13 colonies – 12 of which enfranchised only men – and meet women whose brave and selfless acts helped the Patriots win the American Revolution\, despite being denied a voice in our new nation. \nAbout the speaker: Nancy B. Kennedy is the author of eight nonfiction books\, most recently “Women Win the Vote! 19 for the 19th Amendment” (Norton Young Readers). She has lived in Hopewell Borough for 33 years with her “suffragent” husband\, John. Visit her website at www.nancybkennedy.com. \nRegistration is required for this event\, and open now. Reserve your spot today at www.mahwahmusuem.org  or at https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/this-sacred-soil. Tickets are $10 per person\, and $5 for Mahwah Museum members with discount code.
