Home Movie Day Raleigh
A local celebration of amateur home movies and a chance to learn how to preserve them for future generations to enjoy. NOTE: Even if you don't have anything to screen, Home Movies are a great SPECTATOR sport!
When: Saturday October 17th, 1pm - 4pm
Where: North Carolina State Archives Auditorium, 109 East Jones Street, Raleigh NC 27601
Easy, free parking!
What: Dig through your closets, call up Grandma, search out your family's home movies (of vacation, holidays, family events, whatever), and bring a reel or two of your 8mm, Super 8, or 16mm home movies (sorry, no video or slides). We'll watch them and give you information on how to keep them safe. Also play Home Movie Day Bingo for fun and prizes!

Daun Daemon acted as an editorial consultant for the Fall 2009 issue of Interweave Crochet magazine. Her contributions were the descriptive names of the magazine's designs. Ironically, Daun is a knitter, not a crocheter.

MFA Faculty JILL McCORKLE will read from her new story collection, Going Away Shoes (Algonquin, $19.95), as part of the Owen-Walters Reading Series. She will read Thursday night, September 24th, at 7:30 p.m. in the Caldwell Hall Lounge.
Given the chaos out on Hillsborough, we may lose some of our regulars attendees, so do encourage your students to attend--and we'd really like to see faculty there, too! Copies of Jill's books will be on sale and, as always, admission is free.
