SUMMARY:First in Freedom: North Carolina and the American Revolution
DESCRIPTION:APP STATE Presents A lecture by Dr. Karl Campbell The state of North Carolina had the American Revolution in mind when it authorized our license plates to read “first in freedom.” Given the more prominent roles played by other states–such as Massachusetts\, New York\, Pennsylvania\, and Virginia—on what basis does North Carolina make this claim\, and how does it hold up under historical scrutiny? \nDr. Campbell\,  will reexamine the stories\, controversies\, and ongoing debates about the Ol’ North State’s contribution to the American Revolution. This lecture will suggest that the events of 250 years ago are not just a patriotic history to celebrate but a sacred obligation to fulfill. \nWebsite

SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn: A Slow Art Experience
DESCRIPTION:Take time for yourself for a special series BRAHM is calling Lunch & Learn: A Slow Art Experience. \nWhat is Slow Art?  \nMost of us stroll through an art gallery\, pausing at a piece of art for a few moments before moving on to the next\, like some form of visual buffet. Slow Art as a concept was created to encourage us all to stay with the art for a little longer\, savor\, and soak it in. The hope is that we not only see more\, but also get to know the works in greater detail. Exploring artworks more slowly can help us to form more stories\, feelings\, and opinions about the works. \nWebsite
