Beginning in 2008, people all over the world began to join a movement of communities coming together to reimagine rebuilding a new world. Called “Transition Towns,” they explored what it would take to transition from fossil fuels to clean energy. Media, Pennsylvania was the first town in Pennsylvania to become a Transition Town.
Media, Pennsylvania, created working groups around regenerative agriculture, composting, outreach, solar energy, and strengthening their local economy to help their town move from oil dependency to local resilience. Now 10 years later, their volunteer-led, working groups continue to research specific needs of their town to propose creative local solutions to the climate crisis while building community spirit and building partnerships.
Our municipality, Middletown Township, just became the first town in Bucks County to pass a Climate Action Plan. Many of the goals in this plan mirror Transition Towns. Come and see what we can learn from the successes and challenges of Media, Pennsylvania.

INVITATION FROM CLAY SPACE ARTISTS
Clay Space is going public! Come see what we’ve been doing!
For one day only, our work will be on display in the Activities Room. The date and time will be the same as the Flea Market: Wednesday, October 20 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
For many, it is the first time making pottery and sculpture; and we continue to learn from one another.
Some pieces are for sale. If you are interested, get in touch with the artist. It would be a private transaction between you, with half of the sale price going to PVRA.
Come see our work! We’ve enjoyed making it. We hope you will enjoy looking at it.

Can Fascism Happen Here?
In person in Penn Hall
We are fortunate to have Professor Katz come to speak with us once again. Stanley N. Katz's current research focuses on recent developments in American philanthropy, the relationship of civil society and constitutionalism to democracy, and the relationship of the United States to the international human rights regime. His presentation on “Can Fascism Happen Here?” has been widely acclaimed. Dr. Katz was awarded the National Humanities Medal by President Barack Obama.

Idaho Falls, Idaho
Saturday, October 16 at 2:00 p.m.
Boise, Idaho
This week, our twow destinations could not be more different!
Put on your swimwear and sunscreen, we are going to Hawaii! First, we go to the Honolulu Museum of Art as we join Curator Aimee Ng as she explores the Honolulu Museum of Art, which lent a portrait of Lady Meux by James McNeill Whistler to the Frick for its 2003 exhibition, “Whistler, Women, and Fashion.” Founded by Anna Rice Cooke, the daughter of a prominent missionary family in Hawaii, the Honolulu Museum of Art was meant to ensure that the children of the islands would have a place to learn not only about their own background and culture but about those of the diverse populations around them.
Next, we go to the heart and soul of Hawaii, Oahu. The island is the economic and cultural center of the Hawaiian archipelago and is home to more than half of all natives and almost eight million foreign guests annually. We will learn about the traditional floral decoration, leis, and the traditional tattooing skills of this tropical state.
The weather might be a bit different, so grab your sweater to explore Idaho. Our first city is Idaho Falls, Idaho. Currently this area of Eastern Idaho is considered one of the best places to live in America in terms of quality of life and affordability.
We then move onto Boise, the largest city in Idaho and one of the fastest growing cities in all of America to look at the Capitol and the Boise River area.

Calling all Ghosts, Goblins and Witches!
It’s time again for the Newtown Friends
School Halloween Parade on Friday, October 29!
Newtown Friends School students will be donning costumes
and parading outdoors this year instead of through the
Community building. The parade will arrive on The Penns-
wood campus around 10:30 a.m. and exit by 11:15 a.m.
Step onto your patios or along the parade route to enjoy the
sights! The students will cross the meadow and enter
through the Bocce/Croquet courtyard, wind around to the
Jordan path into the Front Circle, exit through the Loe/Kinsey
Link into the Gazebo courtyard and depart via R5 parking lot.
A large image of the parade route is posted in front of the
Cafe and the Newtown Friends School bulletin boards.
There is no rain date.

Here’s How to Minimize the Risk—Falls
Below is an excerpt from the New York Times article by
Jane E. Brody on Monday, February 25, 2019.
Every day, I scan the obituaries to see why or how people die. You might call it morbid fascination, but I attribute it to the combined influence of my age (77) and my profession (health reporting).
One of the most frequent causes of death listed for people my age, as well as some younger and many older folks, is “complications from a fall.”…
Falls are the leading cause of fatal and nonfatal injuries among older adults. Every 19 minutes in this country, an older person dies from a fall.

An Opportunity
On Sunday, October 31, the Resident Art
Gallery will open its new show, Artist’s
Choice, with a reception. Unfortunately, we
cannot invite outsiders to attend so the
family members of artists exhibiting cannot
be there. Nor can we offer refreshments.
This is very disappointing, but necessary.
Artists have often found it hard to place an
insurance value on their work as they bring
it in to the Gallery for exhibition. The
understanding has been that such
information was required for insurance
Pennswood carried. We have found only recently that this is not the case. Work you show is not
covered by Pennswood insurance policies. If you wish to insure your work, make sure your own
private insurance covers it.
We are looking forward to receiving your work (with a limit of two works per artist) at the Gallery on
the afternoon of Thursday, October 28 and to the formal opening on October 31 from 3:00 p.m. to
4:30 p.m. We hope that the artists of Pennswood are hard at work preparing to delight their fellow
residents.

Our next book discussion on Tuesday, November 9 at 10:30 a.m. is Caste by Pulitzer Prize winning author, Isabel Wilkerson. The author gives us a portrait of an unseen phenomenon in America as she explores stories about real people and how our history has been shaped by a hidden caste system—a rigid hierarchy of human ranking. Need a copy of Caste for the book meeting? Contact Beth Funke by phone or email.
On Tuesday, January 11, we will be discussing Pachinko by Min Jin Lee. It explores the history of Korea and Japan from 1910-1980, and the implications of racism, poverty, disability, wealth, and war on one family. Come join us.
