When Time Stopped Virtual Author Talk and Book Signing
<p>Whilst stories of the holocaust continue to appall, remarkable stories of courage and endurance continue to emerge. Journalist Ariana Neumann dives into the secrets of her own father’s past, a story that saw him spending years hiding in plain sight in war torn Berlin; the annihilation of dozens of family members in the Holocaust; and his courageous choice to build anew.</p><p>From an innocuous box of papers her father left for her when he died, Ariana has meticulously uncovered the extraordinary truth of his escape from Nazi-occupied Prague. She follows him across Europe and reveals his astonishing choice to assume a fake identity and live out the war undercover, spying for the Allies in Berlin.</p><p>Ariana Neumann grew up in Venezuela. She previously worked as a foreign correspondent for Venezuela’s <em>The Daily Journal</em> and her writing has also appeared in <em>The European</em>. Ariana lives in London with her family. <em>When Time Stopped</em> is her first book.</p><p>This program will be live on Zoom with opportunity for the audience to ask Ariana Neumann questions.</p><p><strong>Cost:</strong> The Virtual program is free for NCSML Members with RSVP. Members can also purchase the book with their member discount. Use coupon code Member10 at check out. Non-members must purchase a book to attend this virtual program. </p><p>https://store.ncsml.org/product/when-time-stopped-by-ariana-neumann/</p><p>All books will include a signed bookplate from the author, while supplies last!</p><p>Sponsored by CRST International</p> 2021-01-06 13:00:00 -06001/19/2112:00 p.m.National Czech & Slovak Museum & LibraryCedar Rapids -

Treasuring Our Trees, Part 2
<p>Did you participate in our Oct. 25 online event <em>Treasuring Our Trees: Cedar Rapids & Surrounding Areas Following the Derecho</em>? If so, you know how powerful the experience of gathering together on behalf of our fallen trees was for our communal psyche. We began the long process of grieving and healing following the decimation of our trees from the Aug. 10 derecho. An area-wide memorial afforded us the opportunity to honor, celebrate, give thanks and remember our revered arbor-elders through ritual, poetry, prayer and song. During the wintering months, we continue the journey of healing by going deeper, listening, doing the hard interior work of reflection and healing, while learning about ongoing care for creation and planning for the future. Throughout the week of Jan. 25–29, we will offer a series of 40-minute Zoom sessions to help us learn from the trees how to plunge deeper, to renew ourselves spiritually from the battering that has been 2020, and to learn how to care for the remaining wildlife habitat, stumps, logs, hollowed out soil, water and air that have been affected by the derecho, and also how to plan for spring planting when the time is ripe. Times and topics are to be determined, so watch www.Prairiewoods.org for opportunities to log onto your favorite sessions and make the most of the dormancy of winter! In caring for our trees, together we can learn the art of communal healing and co-creating a bright future. This online program via Zoom is free and is co-sponsored by Prairiewoods, Trees Forever, Indian Creek Nature Center, Cornell College Chaplain & Spiritual Life, Winding Pathways, People’s Unitarian Universalist Church and Coe College. You do not need to have attended Part 1 in October to join us for this session. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p>1/25/218:00 a.m.Prairiewoods Franciscan Spirituality CenterHiawatha -

Joseph Hall: ELVIS Rock N Remember
<p>ELVIS IS IN THE BUILDING! Joseph Hall is thrilled to present his Elvis Rock N Remember tribute show! This show celebrates the roots of Elvis, yet is a fast-paced concert that makes it difficult for you to stay in your seat. It caters to both the young and the young at heart. He's got the look, the voice, the charm and the moves that take us back to a time when parents were flabbergasted by the flauntingly provocative hip action.</p><p>In Hall's Elvis Rock N Remember show, he achieves a powerful flashback experience to the moment when fans fell in love with the talented, handsome, carefree, energetic, high-spirited young man that is Elvis Presley. The show is masterfully produced with a mixture of Elvis hits from rock n roll, country, pop to gospel, multiple costume changes and a heartfelt tribute to our veterans. He's even got the teddy bears and scarves to woo the ladies. A must-see for all ages!</p><p>Joseph Hall, born in 1984, has been paying tribute to the legacy of Elvis Presley since 2006. He starred on NBC's America's Got Talent in 2008, making 6 TV appearances, viewed by more than 90 million people and placing as one of the top 10 finalists! Sharon Osbourne impressed enough to tell him, "I've got shoes older than you, but I'd like to try you on!" Also, Piers Morgan quoted saying, "ELVIS IS BACK!" Joseph Hall has performed all over the world! Joseph Hall has won accolades throughout his young career including the "Spirit of Elvis " award. Joseph Hall has worked with Elvis Presley Enterprises, Legends in Concert, and has officially been recognized as one of the top tribute artists in the world today. Hall says "My goal is to capture the essence of Elvis Presley, to pay tribute with the utmost respect to his legacy, his music, his image and above all else his fans.”</p><p>Tickets to this event are non-refundable.</p>2/20/217:00 p.m.Coralville Center for the Performing ArtsCoralville -
