SUMMARY:BRAHM: Ekphrastic Poetry Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Head to BRAHM to join NC Poet Laureate Jaki Shelton Green for this invigorating two-hour ekphrastic poetry workshop designed to expand your experience with art and inspire your writing. \nThe tradition of engaging with works of art is known in poetry as ekphrasis (the Greek ek for out of + phrasis for expression). We invite you to learn how to use art as a springboard for your own poems\, stories\, and memoirs. \nThe workshop is open to writers at all stages of their careers and will offer poets a range of approaches to connect with a work of art in another medium. \nWebsite \n  \nPhoto Credit: photo by Sandra Davis\, courtesy of Jaki Shelton Green.

SUMMARY:BRAHM: Movies at the Museum: Dulatown
DESCRIPTION:Image credit: Various branches of the Dula family come together at the Dulatown gravesite. Courtesy of Leslie Dula Mckesson. \nAbout the film\nDulatown is a documentary short about a community in Lenoir\, NC established from the land of a slave owner (Alfred Dula) bequeathed to his slave (Harriet) and their eight children. Dulatown remains home to the extended Dula clan and embraces its history at a bi-annual reunion where in recent years both African-American and White Dula relatives come together around their shared genealogy to acknowledge they have more in common than just a surname. Using contemporary interviews with members of the Dula family alongside historical images\, this film weaves an insightful tale of history\, family\, race and identity. \nWebsite

SUMMARY:BRAHM: Shakere African Instrument Making Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Adults\, teens\, or children accompanied by an adult \nWe will prepare a gourd\, paint or etch on the gourd\, string the beaded skirt around it and learn one rhythm & song on the instrument. Beads\, wooden\, ceramic\, and pony plastic beads will be used. Other objects like seashells may be woven in -however\, if they are breakable the instrument may become more a work of art than a playable instrument.   African shekeres may use nut shells\, seashells or hard seeds in the design. Bead colors are an individual choice. \nIf participants do not complete the instrument in one session it is possible to continue to work on it at home. \nWebsite
