SUMMARY:NH Film Series 2018 : King of Kong A Fistfull of Quarters
DESCRIPTION:Film Discussion \nWednesday\, March 28\, 2018.  7pm. \nDocumentary & Discussion:   King of Kong: Fistfull of Quarters \nRobbie Lakeman of Manchester\, New Hampshire\, is the current world champion of the classic arcade game of Donkey Kong.  He will be the special guest speaker at the Historical Society of Cheshire County’s viewing of the 2007 documentary King of Kong: Fistful of Quarters.   The film chronicles the lives of a middle-school science teacher and a hot sauce mogul as they vie for the world record in the early 21st century.  With scenes filmed in Laconia\, New Hampshire\, at Weirs Beach’s Funspot\, King of Kong has become a cult classic to many film-goers and an inspiration to gamers.  Lakeman\, who grew up in Concord\, often visited Funspot as a child and was drawn to the arcade game that has\, today\, put him in the Guinness Book of World Records. Although Lakeman does not star in King of Kong\, he was featured in the 2016 film Kong Off\, another film about Donkey Kong championships. Of the film King of Kong\, the Boston Globe noted that it’s a “hilarious and moving study of the obsessive competition between the all-time scoring leader on Donkey Kong\, an odd Floridian\, and a father of two who gets sucked into a world of mind-blowing passive-aggressiveness.”   The film and discussion are free and open to the public on a first come basis.

SUMMARY:Holiday Traditions Potluck
DESCRIPTION:The Historical Society of Cheshire County is hosting a Holiday Traditions Potluck on Saturday\, December 16 from noon to 1:30 pm. In the style of a “pop up exhibit” the theme of the event will be holiday recipe traditions. Community members are invited to bring dishes that have special meaning to their families. Participants will share their dishes and swap stories about their families’ holiday traditions. Holiday recipes can range from any time of the year and any food culture traditions.\n\nJenna Carroll\, the director of education at the Historical Society\, hopes the event will celebrate the mosaic of cultures that make up Cheshire County. Carroll says\, “We tested the idea of a pop up potluck at the Historical Society in September\, and we were very pleased with the outcome. There were recipes that had been passed down in families for generations. We had Finnish pannukakku\, Italian ravioli\, Lebanese salad\, and Indian curry. I remember one of the participants saying she never thought she would have spent so much time sharing stories with someone who wasn’t like her.”\n\nAdmission is free for anyone who brings a dish to share\, and the Historical Society will collect the recipes to be published in a cookbook of Cheshire County traditions. The project is supported in part by a grant from the Finlandia Foundation.\n\nBring your recipe to share along with your dish.\n\nPlease contact Jenna with questions at dired@hsccnh.org or call 603/352-1895\n

SUMMARY:Little Christmas- Workshop #2 Tonttu Elves
DESCRIPTION:Two Children’s Workshops Celebrate Northern Europe’s “Little Christmas” \n  \nLittle Christmas is coming to Cheshire County this holiday season with two family-friendly workshops focused on winter solstice customs in Northern European countries. Children and adults\, alike\, will create straw-plaited holiday ornaments and Christmas tonttu (elves) to take home. \n  \nWork Shop 1 on Saturday\, November 18th from 10am-12pm master craftsman Lark Leonard will conduct a straw-plaited ornament workshop. Participants will learn about the harvesting of grain\, and the expressions of gratitude for the harvest in Finland and Sweden\, before making their own Christmas ornament to bring home. Straw-plaiting is a custom many centuries old and is used as a way of thanking the earth for its abundance. Ms. Leonard is a folk ornament-maker from Langdon\, NH who has been a member of the League of NH Craftsmen and the Hannah Grimes Center in Keene.   The workshop will take place at the Historical Society of Cheshire County\, 246 Main Street in Keene. This workshop is limited to 12 people.  Children must be accompanied by an adult.  Register by calling 603.352.1895 or visiting the Society during normal business hours. \n  \nWorkshop 2 on December 7th from 4pm-6pm local Finnish historian Zachary Giroux will lead a children’s story and craft hour focused on the mythical elves known in Finland as Tonttu. Learn the story of the elves that watch over local farms and their animals and\, together with the Yule goat Julbocken\, bring presents to good boys and girls throughout Finland at Christmastime. This free workshop will take place at the Jaffrey Public Library at 38 Main Street in Jaffrey. Registration is limited to 20 children. To register call Jaffrey Public Library at 603-531-7301. \n  \nLittle Christmas workshops are part of the Historical Society of Cheshire County’s year-long series entitled Our Community: Celebrating the Mosaic of Cultures that make up Cheshire County with support from the Finlandia Foundation. \n  \nThe Historical Society of Cheshire County is located at 246 Main Street in Keene.
