SUMMARY:Afternoon - Felting Class

Please join us for this NO cost program. \nRegistration is REQUIRED for this program. Fill out the form below.

SUMMARY:One State One Story: Book Discussion at Osgood Library
DESCRIPTION:Ripley County Reads is excited to be taking part in this year’s One State / One Story community read! Indiana Humanities’ One State / One Story program invites Hoosiers to engage deeply with a book as part of a statewide conversation tied to our current theme. \nBOOK: All That She Carried by Tiya Miles\nBook discussion facilitated by Nancy Durham at Osgood Library at 6:00pm. This is a FREE open to the community book discussion and books can be checked out for reading at: Osgood\, Tyson or Batesville Libraries before the discussion to read.\nLocation: Osgood Library\nTime: 6:00pm\n  \nThis program has been made possible through a grant from Indiana Humanities in cooperation with the National Endowment for the Humanities. \nWinner of the 2021 National Book Award in nonfiction\, Miles’ work dives deeply into the history of a single object: a cotton sack embroidered with a few deceptively simple lines: \nMy great grandmother Rose\nmother of Ashley gave her this sack when\nshe was sold at age 9 in South Carolina\nit held a tattered dress 3 handfulls of\npecans a braid of Roses hair. Told her\nIt be filled with my Love always\nshe never saw her again\nAshley is my grandmother \nRuth Middleton \n1921 \nFrom the sparse information contained in these carefully embroidered lines\, Miles opens up the potential worlds of Ashley\, Ruth\, and Rose. Her analysis of the sack reveals what we can and can’t know about the past\, particularly of Black individuals who were brought here by force and enslaved. \nBOOK: All That She Carried by Tiya Miles\nBOOK SUMMARY: In 1850s South Carolina\, an enslaved woman named Rose faced a crisis: the imminent sale of her daughter Ashley. Thinking quickly\, she packed a cotton bag for her with a few items\, and\, soon after\, the nine-year-old girl was separated from her mother and sold. Decades later\, Ashley’s granddaughter Ruth embroidered this family history on the sack in spare\, haunting language. \n  \nComplete information can be found at https://ripleycountyreads.org/osos/

SUMMARY:One State / One Story: Speaker: Black Quilters: Hard Topics\, Soft Blows

While she will blend her presentation to coordinate with the book\, knowledge/reading of the book is not required to attend.  \nDr. Dickerson is the lead faculty for Martin University’s School of Education’s Teacher Preparation Program as of June 2022. Besides teaching\, Dr. Dickerson is a nationally recognized quilter and is a member of 8 local and national quilt guilds including the founding president of the Akoma Ntoso Modern Quilt Guild of Central Indiana. As part of this program she will share multiple quilts that she has made. \nThere will be programs throughout Ripley County that coordinate with this book. Find information about all the programs being offered at https://ripleycountyreads.org/osos/ \nRipley County Reads is a partnership between the three public library systems in Ripley County\, Indiana (the Batesville Memorial Public Library\, Osgood Public Library\, and the Tyson Library) and Ripley County Tourism. The goal is to promote literacy\, community\, and education throughout the County.  \nThis program has been made possible through a grant from Indiana Humanities in cooperation with the National Endowment for Humanities. \n\nFree presentation – Open to the community – No registration.
