Event: Pieces of Me
Date: 14 April 2024
Time: 3:00 to 5:00 pm
Location: MCHC, 202 E 6th Street
Reserved Seating
Discover Bo Petersen's family secrets in a riveting one-woman performance. Unveiling her father's hidden life during Apartheid, this play delves into identity complexities and the impact of historical injustices. More than a play, it's a powerful exploration of transgenerational trauma and a call to break free from silence.
Bo believes in theatre's power to heal across generations. Join us for an afternoon confronting shadows of the past, witnessing strength born from adversity.
"Pieces of Me" is a catalyst for change, an ode to resilience, and a beacon of hope for a South Africa grappling with its tumultuous history. Secure your tickets for a performance resonating with the universal pursuit of truth and healing.

Event: No Rolling Stones: a Landscape Perspective of the Dry Stack Stone Walls of Monroe County
Date: 25 April 2024
Time: 6:00 to 7:30 pm
Location: MCHC, 202 E 6th Street
If you navigate the hills and valleys of the western half of Monroe County, you will pass many stands of dry stack stone walls. Wall stones have been repurposed near where walls once marked a property line or other notable location. Join Susan Snider Salmon as we look at the stories of what is known and examine what remains to be rediscovered.
Join us on May 11, 2024, for an elegant evening filled with fine dining, a silent auction, and live music, all in support of a truly great cause: our children. All proceeds raised at this year's Gala will go to support our Playground Initiative, which seeks to construct new play spaces to spur the joy and imagination of our students. We prize your presence and support. Purchase your tickets early to secure your place for this selective event.
More information on how to support our community children through our Playground Initiative.
