SUMMARY:Enfield\, NH Shakers OSHER Course
DESCRIPTION:Enfield\, NH Shakers – OSHER Course\nA Peculiar People:\nThe Enfield\, N.H. Shakers\nMondays\, April 3 through May 8\, 2023\n12:30 pm – 2:30 pm\nSpring Term HyFlex (In-Person and by Zoom) OSHER Course with field trip\nThe Enfield\, NH Shakers considered themselves “A Peculiar People\,” whose faith required that they lived in a close-knit\, highly structured community of Believers. The tenets of their faith–the dual nature of God\, gender and racial equality\, community of property\, pacifism\, stewardship–challenged many in the 19th century\, and offer opportunities for reflection now. \nAlthough the Shakers have left their mark on contemporary art and design\, in this course we will make greatest use of their contributions to American sacred music. Their songs will provide us access to theological principles that undergird and sustain Believers. Additionally\, we will explore the elements of their faith that brought them into conflict with their neighbors\, and limited their ability to attract new converts to their way of life. \nThe Enfield\, NH Shakers – OSHER course will move quickly from a general overview of Shaker history to a detailed exploration of the Enfield and Canterbury communities’ contributions to New Hampshire’s religious and social history. \nThis OSHER Lifelong Learning at Dartmouth course is offered in conjunction with Enfield Shaker Museum and includes a site visit. \nCourse Instructor: Mary Ann Haagen \nShaker scholar\, musician\, and retired music teacher\, Mary Ann’s research focuses on the NH Shaker communities.  She lectures widely on Shaker history\, music\, and dance; has recorded three CDs of Shaker music with a vocal ensemble she directed. The group’s DVD\, We Find No Harm in Dancing\, documents their work with Shaker dance. Her articles on Shaker history appear regularly in historical publications.  The Collected Writings of Elder Henry Cumings\, edited by her is suggested reading and is  available in the Museum Gift Shop. \nCourse Fee: $65/person. To register call 603.646.0154 or http://reg130.imperisoft.com \nWant to know more about OSHER Life Long Learning at Dartmouth visit their website https://osher.dartmouth.edu

SUMMARY:Hike to Smith Pond
DESCRIPTION:Hike to Smith Pond\nAlong the Shaker Water Canal System\nwith Peter Thompson\nSaturday\, May 6\, 2023\n8:30 am – 1:00 pm\nTake a hike into history with geologist Peter Thompson! In the 1830s\, the Shakers dammed several ponds\, creating “Shaker Mountain Pond”\, and developed a system of canals to deliver water to their community near Lake Mascoma. Today it is possible to hike to Smith Pond following the remnants of this canal system all the way from Route 4a near Enfield Shaker Museum. \nHikers will gather at the Great Stone Dwelling at 8:30 am for a brief introduction (coffee and pastries provided) and get underway about 9:00 am.  The route will follow the Upper Valley Land Trust trail with a side spur to the waterfall.  Although the hike is of moderate difficulty\, those who wished can follow along the canal (gentle grade) and turn back when the hike gets too steep. \nPlease wear weather appropriate clothing and sturdy shoes/boots. Plan to bring a bag lunch and beverage for a picnic along the way. This hike will provide excellent opportunities for photography. \nLimited to 15 participants. Advance registration required. \nMuseum Members – Free \nNon-Members – Free with Regular Museum Admission \nMore about Peter Thompson:\n\nPeter Thompson taught geology at Cornell College in Iowa and the University of New Hampshire. His research has involved mapping bedrock for state surveys in New England\, most recently in the Moosilauke area. For many years he and his wife Thelma mapped in the Green Mountains\, and he helped edit the 2011 Bedrock Geological Map of Vermont. Although Peter considers himself primarily a “field geologist”\, through teaching all sorts of courses at the undergraduate level\, he has a wide range of interests and knowledge about geological materials and processes. In his spare time\, he enjoys playing Renaissance music\, hiking\, Tai Chi\, gardening\, and dancing.
