"Edward Howe Forbush (1858-1929), the first Massachusetts State Ornithologist, was one of the founders of the Massachusetts Audubon Society.  In the 1920’s Forbush was able to commission Louis Agassiz Fuertes - whose reputation as America’s foremost painter of birds was by then well established - to create illustrations for his book Birds of Massachusetts and Other New England States. These paintings by Fuertes remain some of the most accomplished work on a regional avifauna ever produced." https://falmouthpubliclibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/louis-fuertes-bird-art-exhibit-5/

In partnership with the Falmouth Jewish Congregation, the Falmouth Public Library will be screening the 2024 documentary All We Carry on Thursday, May 8th at 6:30pm in the Hermann Room.   "This feature documentary All We Carry follows a young Honduran family as they flee persecution—migrating in cargo trains across Mexico, claiming asylum at the US border, and enduring separation in detention before being released in Seattle. There, a local synagogue sponsors the family for two years while they await the final decision on their asylum case. As the family tries to settle into their new home, they navigate countless life-altering and every-day moments where memory, joy, and grief collide."      https://falmouthpubliclibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/all-we-carry-documentary-screening/

Also, please click on the Falmouth Genealogical Society website for more information on them and this month's speaker! Please note that the room will open for socializing and networking at 10, and the speaker will start around 10:30 am. For the May meeting, FGS member Stan Vincent will demonstrate the use of disparate record types to uncover the truth regarding a mysterious relative. He was able to prove that Joseph H. DAINTY who was born 10 July 1870 in Newark-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire, England is one and the same person as Joseph H. DAVIS who died on 26 August 1935 in Portland, Oregon. The process will touch briefly on this person’s father Henry DAINTY, his mother Harriet UNDY and their other six children as they made their way to Somerville, Massachusetts via Brooklyn, New York and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Stanford Bates Vincent, a descendant of Matthew Vincent of Kittery Point, Maine (circa 1720), is a retired businessman, charter member of the Independent Educational Consultants Association, and founding member of the New Black Eagle Jazz Band. He and his wife Carol Ann (Dainty) Vincents have made Falmouth their home since 1996.Contact: Tim Martin 630-740-0881 [email protected] https://falmouthpubliclibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/falmouth-genealogical-society-monthly-meeting-18/

Join us on Tuesday, May 13th at 1pm at the Senior Center (780 Main Street) as we discuss this month's selection The Orphan Master's Son: A Novel by Adam Johnson! Copies of the book can be picked up at the book club meetings at the Senior Center or at the Falmouth Public Library's adult service desk. "The Orphan Master's Son follows a young man's journey through the icy waters, dark tunnels, and eerie spy chambers of the world's most mysterious dictatorship, North Korea.  Part breathless thriller, part story of innocence lost, part story of romantic love, The Orphan Master's Son is also a riveting portrait of a world heretofore hidden from view: a North Korea rife with hunger, corruption, and casual cruelty but also camaraderie, stolen moments of beauty, and love." https://falmouthpubliclibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/falmouth-senior-center-book-club-the-orphan-masters-son/

Ready to unwind? Our meditation class has moved to the evening, so you can breathe easy as the sun sets! In this class, participants will practice loving-kindness meditation, which involves directing positive intentions and goodwill towards oneself and others. This practice aims to cultivate compassion, empathy, and love, fostering emotional well-being and healthier relationships. This class will also include Insight meditation, also known as Vipassana or mindfulness meditation. This technique involves observing thoughts, sensations, and experiences with non-judgmental awareness. Its objective is to develop profound insight into the nature of existence, fostering mindfulness, clarity, and a deeper understanding of oneself and reality. Class Structure: • 10 minutes: Loving-Kindness Meditation techniques to cultivate compassion and empathy. • 40 minutes: Insight Meditation, incorporating mindful prostration, walking, and sitting practices. After the session, participants will have the opportunity for individual interviews—either in a group setting or one-on-one. These 10-minute discussions are intended to ensure proper practice techniques and provide personalized guidance for a deeper understanding of the meditation process. Target Audience: This class is designed for participants of all levels, from beginners to experienced meditators. It offers a blend of loving-kindness meditation, mindfulness practice, and shared experiences through personal reflection. Consider it a workout for the mind, open to anyone seeking greater self-awareness and personal growth. About the instructor: Benny is an instructor from the NMR Buddhist Meditation Center in Raynham, MA. Benny is an advanced mindfulness teacher with a profound understanding of the art and science of mindfulness.

Our long-running Joy of Learning program has changed! Instead of two larger sessions in April and October, we will be offering individual classes throughout the year. This will be our inaugural class in the new format! This second session will be Generative AI: Detecting and Protecting Yourself from AI Misinformation and we will offer two identical sessions on Tue, May 13 from 6:30 - 7:30 pm and Sat, May 31 from 3:00 - 4:00 pm. This is to ensure that people have a better chance of finding a session to fit their schedule! Please register for ONE of the sessions. Session Two: Generative AI: Detecting and Protecting Yourself from AI Misinformation Although misinformation, disinformation, and deepfakes are not new, generative AI makes it easier, faster, and cheaper to produce than ever before. Join Falmouth resident Jane Stimpson, a librarian and AI trainer, to learn about the threats that AI-generated text and multimedia pose to individuals and society, as well as tips for spotting and debunking it. This program will build on some of the ideas covered in Jane's Generative AI: Understanding the Basics program, but you do not need to have attended that one to participate. If you missed session I in April and would like to view the slides, please email a request to Sue Henken at [email protected]. https://falmouthpubliclibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/joy-of-learning-generative-artificial-intelligence/
