SUMMARY:Artist Talk with Lois Harada
DESCRIPTION:Artist Lois Harada is a printmaker based in North Providence\, RI. Join her for an artist talk about her practice\, recent projects and her work. \nBring your pennies; the artist will have a custom penny press installed at The Cato Vernon Freedom Library. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Lois Harada:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLois Harada is an artist and printmaker working in Providence\, Rhode Island. She studied printmaking at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) and settled in Providence after graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2010. She works at DWRI Letterpress\, a commercial letterpress printshop where she also prints her own work. Harada utilizes text and the medium of the poster to tell her family’s story of incarceration — her paternal grandmother was interned in Poston\, Arizona from 1942 -1945. She takes inspiration from propaganda printed and distributed by the United States government and prints with type and equipment similar to that which would have created the original works.

SUMMARY:Was Freedom Sweet? The Travels of Arthur Bowler\, Black Loyalist: a Book Talk with Jane Lancaster
DESCRIPTION:This book talk from author and historian Jan Lancaster will share the story of Arthur Bowler\, an enslaved African\, who lived in the house later called the Vernon House for at least a decade — before Cato Vernon’s time. She’ll discuss the clues available about his life in Newport\, and his subsequent life in Portsmouth\, New York\, Nova Scotia and Sierra Leone. As a so-called Black Loyalist his life followed a very different trajectory from that of Cato Vernon. \nThis talk coincides with research Jane conducted for her debut work of historical fiction\, Liberty is Sweet. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Jane Lancaster:\n\nJane Lancaster is a historian by training and a communicator by instinct. In books\, articles and talks\, she shows people that history is all around them. Before she earned a PhD in history from Brown University and started publishing books and articles\, she was an award-winning high school history teacher\, both in the UK and in the USA\, persuading students (often successfully) that history was all around them if they knew how and where to look.
