10月. - 11月., 2012,《赌博平台大全》
阅读 and Berks County have surely been part of the atomic age. 从电影开始, 今天的提醒, 明天还活着, a Civil Defense production filmed in Berks County, and the 1955 Bernville Evacuation, a simulated evacuation to test civilian preparedness of the area, Berks County was a model area for Civil Defense readiness. Fallout 避难所s were scattered throughout the area, in homes, schools and even department stores. Items such as canned water, 毯子, 饼干, and disposal items for waste were common items in these 避难所s. And the city of 阅读 itself boasted a ?主要? 避难所 ? that could house and protect 50 lucky citizens.
Those old enough to remember lived through a strange, halcyon haze of terror during the fifties and sixties. 孩子们练习 ?蹲下躲避? drills at their schools; the bright black and yellow fallout 避难所s signs were both comforting, and frightening; we listened for the siren warning blast and scanned the horizon for the blinding atomic flash.
In those days, unlike today, the enemy was tangible; the enemy had a face ? 苏联(美国.S.S.R.), and other communist countries. 整整50年前, 古巴导弹危机, a 13-day confrontation between the Soviet Union and Cuba on one side and the United States on the other was the closest we came to an atomic annihilation.How does the Atomic Life compare with today?s threats of terror, bio-terrorism, war, and uprisings around the world? Are we safer now then we were then?
We would like to thank the John Burroughs, director of the Rogers Museum in Rogers, 阿肯色州, for loaning us the bulk of this exhibition, 原子生命. 但我们?d especially like to thank local collectors who have loaned us significant items, 包括大卫·比尔德, director of the Boyertown Museum of Historic Vehicles, the Berks County Historic Society, especially Joshua Blay for assistance and items, 詹姆斯斯沃普, 特蕾西·布兰特.
星期四,11月. 12月29日至周五. 7, ArtSparks
接待:6便士.m. 到8点.m. 星期四,11月. 29
ArtSparks was conceived and created by Susan Rehhausser, a graduate student in the masters of liberal studies in community leadership at Alvernia University. 这个项目 ? to create original works of art in a triptych format by local students, children and other volunteers through community workshops ? is intended to re-spark the hope and imagination of people in the City of 阅读, which was documented as one of the poorest cities of its size in the nation.
These works of art were delivered to areas of 阅读 in 10月ober, free for the taking by the residents of those areas.
女士解释说. Rehhausser, ?The triptychs were made from the hearts of all these individuals with a sense of community, 爱的感觉. They were to be placed throughout the city with the hopes that those who need the words of encouragement or hope will find them, 带他们, and keep them as a symbol of change and inspiration. My hope is that people are inspired to make a difference in the city and maybe are inspired to make changes within themselves?. the project is intended to be a tipping point or at the very least a potential ignition point to encourage people to make a difference and realize they have a voice and can be an agent of change?
