Elements of Empowerment, Inc., in partnership with Gaston Arts Council, presents its 2019 reading series. Cultural Readings & Rhythms From The Rocker is a free program to foster cultural awareness, acceptance, and preservation through the sharing of literature and music from a culturally inspired, custom-painted rocking chair.
The program is a series of monthly reading events held at branches of the Gaston County Public Library.
The 2019 series concludes Thursday, May 23 at 6:30 pm - Belmont Branch.
Dr. Daniel Hutchinson of Belmont Abbey College will be the guest storyteller.
The culturally inspired, custom-painted rocking chair is the storytelling platform at all events.
Elements of Empowerment, Inc. enlisted artist Thelathia Singleton to paint the chair.
Cultural Readings & Rhythms is supported by the North Carolina Arts Council, a division of the Department of Natural and Cultural Resources.
