• Literary Workshop

    Watershed Books 269 Main Street, Brookville, PA, United States

    Join host Tabassam Shah as she presents Poems for Peace: Origami Poetry! From Tabby: As writers and artists, how can we come together seeking a way to respond to the chaos of the world, all its injustice and violence? In this workshop we briefly discuss peace as a remedy and a subject in poetry and then free-write peace poems with the assistance of provided prompts. We then inscribe these poems on paper which we use to fold into doves—symbols of peace in many traditions. This gathering allows us to share stories and intentions surrounding peace while folding birds in a co-creative space for curiosity, sorrow, understanding, listening, communion, healing and for the stillness needed to hear the humanity that connects us all. We fold doves in a focusing, quieting, mindful movement of hands, eyes and heart. Some of us may fold a dove for every life flown away to soon while remembering peace can exist within. Others may send up supplications for peace with their folded doves. We may mourn in collective grief while generating hopes and visions for new worlds. If we have time towards the end of the session, we will work on a collective way to exhibit our folded doves—whether strung on a string together or hanging on clothes hangers in an installation piece.

    Brookville Students Bring Big Ideas to Life — Public Invited to Wheelers & Dealers! The Brookville Area Chamber of Commerce and Brookville Area High School are again teaming up and excited to welcome the public to the annual Wheelers & Dealers event on Wednesday, December 18th. This much-loved project gives senior Economics students the opportunity to showcase their creativity, business skills, and hard work — and the public is invited to be part of the fun. Event Details: Wednesday, December 17th, 11:15am–12:00pm Auxiliary Gym, Brookville Area High School Free to attend • Donations benefit the Class of 2026 How It Works: When you walk in, you’ll have the opportunity to purchase “play money” at the door. You’ll then use that play money to “buy” your favorite student-made items. Students do their best to create extra products for the public, but availability is not guaranteed — and that’s okay! You can still show your support by donating even if an item is sold out. At the end of the event, the student with the highest sales will earn bragging rights and a gift card sponsored by the Brookville Area Chamber of Commerce. All proceeds support the Class of 2026.
