Thursday, March 15, 2018: Celtic Hearth with Brian Cunningham &
Gerry Sloan For thousands of years, the Celts gathered around the
hearth of their homes to celebrate life and death in dance, story and song.
From our hearth to yours, comes this unique experience where you share the
life of the Celtic people with an interactive and engaging experience that calls
you home. Celtic Hearth is an innovative Irish duo who bring together their
passion for Celtic history, music, dance and culture into one unforgotten per-
formance.
Thursday, May 10, 2018: “Golda Meir, The Journey Home” with Jessica
Michna How does a gir l born in the Ukraine, raised in Milwaukee, Wis-
consin, travel a path that will lead her to become Prime Minister of Israel?
This informative, entertaining program, developed by Jessica Michna, ex-
plores that rather circuitous route. What roadblocks and detours were thrown
in Golda's way and how did she overcome them? The journey is a fascinating
one, filled with joy, sorrow, seriousness and humor. Let Golda, as portrayed
by Ms. Michna, tell you in her own words.
