SUMMARY:Corbin's Animal Garden with Mary Kroenenwetter
DESCRIPTION:Corbin’s Animal Garden with Mary Kroenenwetter\nWednesday\, April 9th\, 2025\n6:00 – 7:00 pm\nFree Admission\nEnfield Community Center \n308 US Route 4\n \nEnfield\, NH 03748 \nThe Enfield Public Library and Enfield Shaker Museum come together again to bring you a talk from Mary Kroenenwetter! This New Hampshire Humanities talk features a hunting club in central New Hampshire and the long history of its inhabitants. \nIn the late 1800s\, the banking\, railroad\, and real estate mogul Austin Corbin returned to his hometown in Newport\, New Hampshire. He built a grand estate and bought out his neighbors’ farms to create an 22\,000 acre wildlife game preserve stocked with boar\, bison\, bighorn sheep\, antelope\, elk\, Chinese pheasant\, and other imported animals. The grounds eventually became a prestigious private hunting park and hosted illustrious guests including Theodore Roosevelt\, the Prince of Wales\, Cornelius Vanderbilt\, Joe Dimaggio\, Rudyard Kipling\, and Augustus Saint Gaudens. This illustrated slideshow features archival images and a discussion of the complicated history and legacy of New Hampshire’s own American Gilded Age robber baron. The talk will also highlight the important legacy of the role the Corbin family and park naturalist Ernest Baynes played in the saving of the American bison from extinction. \nWho is Mary Kroenenwetter? \nMary Kronenwetter holds a doctorate in educational research\, policy\, and administration and has held academic administration and teaching positions at colleges in the United States\, China\, and Japan. Upon returning to New England\, she has worked at historical sites including Historic Deerfield\, Enfield Shaker Museum\, and The John Hay Estate at The Fells. Mary currently teaches for OSHER at Dartmouth and Adventures in Learning at Colby-Sawyer and has recently published the New Hampshire-based historical fiction\, Pauper Auction. \nThis program is made possible by New Hampshire Humanities. Learn more at www.nhhumanities.org. \nCost: \nFree Admission\, but registration is encouraged! \nComing from a distance? Stay at the historic Great Stone Dwelling! Accommodations.

SUMMARY:This Reminds Me of a Story by Rebecca Rule
DESCRIPTION:This Reminds Me of a Story by Rebecca Rule\nFriday\, February 21st\, 2025\n4:00 pm start\nFree Admission\nEnfield Shaker Museum \n447 NH Route 4A \nEnfield\, NH 03748 \nJoin us for the first Humanities-to-Go talk of 2025! Made possible by a grant from the New Hampshire Humanities Council. This program is free and open to the public and will include some light refreshments of coffee or tea and small treats. The program will beheld in the Meeting Room of the Great Stone Dwelling. \nStories speak to us of community. They hold our history and reflect our identity. Rebecca Rule has made it her mission over the last 20 years to collect stories of New Hampshire\, especially those that reflect what’s special about this rocky old place. She’ll tell some of those stories – her favorites are the funny ones – and invite audience members to contribute a few stories of their own. \nWho is Rebecca Rule? \nRebecca Rule hosts Our Hometown on NHPBS. Each program features a different New Hampshire town\, its stories about what makes their town special told by its citizens. \nShe’s been telling stories in New England\, especially New Hampshire\, for many years. She hasn’t visited every town in the Granite State\, but has found her way to most of them — speaking at libraries\, schools\, historical societies\, church groups\, and charitable organizations. She likes collecting stories because “they’re free and you don’t have to dust them.” Our stories are our identity. They hold our history\, our culture\, our heart. \nHer books include N is for New Hampshire\, an ABC book with photographs by Scott Snyder; The Iciest Diciest Scariest Sled Ride Ever!\, a picture book illustrated by Jennifer Thermes; Headin’ for the Rhubarb\, A NH Dictionary (well\, kinda); and That Reminds Me of a Funny Story. Her new book\, NH Trivia\, will be available in the spring of 2024. \n*Advanced Registration is NOT required\, but reserve a space today! \nComing from a distance?

SUMMARY:Humanities to Go: NH's Agricultural Fairs
DESCRIPTION:NH’s Long Love-Hate \nRelationship with\nAgricultural Fairs\nSponsored by NH Humanities Council\nTuesday\, August 22\, 2023\n7:00 pm\n\nEnfield Shaker Museum is hosting Steve Taylor for a “Humanities to Go” presentation on New Hampshire’s Long Love-Hate Relationship with Agricultural Fairs. \n\n\nThe talk will take place at 7 p.m. on Tuesday\, August 22. Made possible by a grant from the New Hampshire Humanities Council. \n\n\nThe first agricultural fair in North America was held in what is now Londonderry in 1722. It would become a wildly popular event lasting for generations until it was so dominated by gambling\, flim-flam\, and other “scandalous dimensions” that the legislature revoked its charter in 1850. But New Hampshire’s agricultural fairs have always had strong supporters and eventually the state came around to appropriating modest sums to help them succeed. Temperance groups and others would continue to attack the fairs on moral grounds and their close connection to horse racing was a chronic flashpoint. Taylor will discuss the ups and downs of NH’s agricultural fairs through the years and how public affection for rural traditions helps them survive in contemporary times. \n\n\nThis event is free and open to the public.\nFor more information call the Museum at (603) 632-4346 or email education@shakermuseum.org. \nMeet Steve Taylor: \nSteve Taylor is an independent scholar\, farmer\, journalist\, and longtime public official. With his sons\, he operates a dairy\, maple syrup\, and cheese making enterprise in Meriden Village. He has been a newspaper reporter and editor\, and served for 25 years as New Hampshire’s commissioner of agriculture. Taylor was the founding executive director of the New Hampshire Humanities Council and is a lifelong student of the state’s rural culture.
