[PFOHO] Come paint pottery! Monday 1/18 2-4pm

by Blondin, Stacy Ann

Hi Everyone! Marie and I can't wait to welcome many of you back for wintersession next week! To kick it off, we're planning an afternoon outing to Made-By-Me pottery painting studio in our very own Porter Square on Monday afternoon (~2-4pm). This is the perfect opportunity to make something for that special Valentine, a birthday or thank-you gift, or perhaps something useful for the upcoming semester! The House will cover the studio fee, paint, and a base pottery budget, and there is no artistic talent necessary (even Kate can paint [&#X1f60a] )! If you're interested in joining us, please email me directly with your name and phone number. Looking forward to it! Stacy and Marie [cid:28f7fc18-ee39-4487-96b5-fce40da32f58][cid:adf7cad0-7ae6-461d-8e9a-fb05db3e09a0] _______________________________________________ Pfoho-announce mailing list Pfoho-announce(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu To unsubscribe from this list or get other information: https://lists.fas.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/pfoho-announce

[PFOHO] Fwd: Day Trip to New Bedford This Saturday!

by Matthew Young

I wanted to let everyone know about this real fun excursion. The College has provided transport, and the alums have covered the cost. Please pub widely, and feel free to join us if you can! Join us *this Saturday January 5th* for a day-trip to one of Massachusetts’ most historic cities, New Bedford, one hour south of Boston. Founded in 1652, New Bedford rose to prominence as a whaling village, and for several decades before the Civil War, New Bedford enjoyed the highest per capita income in the United States. This wealth was due to whale oil, which before the advent of kerosene, produced the best fuel for lighting. Later, New Bedford also became a major textile center. With the decline of the Atlantic fisheries and the closing of most of the large mills in the 1980s, the city fell on hard times, but a major preservation effort has led to the restoration if its historic downtown and seaport area. The New Bedford Whaling Museum, which we'll visit, is considered the premiere museum of its type in the world. On Saturday, they begin their annual epic reading of *Moby Dick* at noon, which we'll participate in. The city is also famous for its Portuguese, particularly Azorean, immigrants, who arrived early-on to man the fishing fleets, and continue a culinary traditional that is unrivaled in Massachusetts. (We'll also be sampling the food!) New Bedford was also the first home of abolitionist Frederick Douglass after he escaped slavery in 1838. We'll be visiting his homestead and learning more about this great American social reformer, abolitionist, orator, writer, and statesman. *Tentative Schedule: * *9:30 AM SHARP* Bus Departs From Harvard Lampoon *(Note SHARP) NO HARVARD TIME* *10:45* Arrive New Bedford; Greeting at Whaling Museum sampling of pasteis de nata <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pastel_de_nata> and Cabo Verden cachupa <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZtlgA-UOxE> (the national dish <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cachupa> of C.V.) *11:00-12:00:* Explore the Museum *12:00:* Meet in the Great Hall to hear the beginning of *Moby Dick* *12:20: (TIME PERMITTING*) Meeting with New Bedford Mayor and Harvard Alum Mr. Jonathan F. "Jon" Mitchell <https://www.southcoasttoday.com/news/20171209/jon-mitchells-friends-and-fam…>, AB '91 / Economics *Cum Laude* General Studies / Leverett House) *12:45*: Begin walking tour of historic district with guide. Visit Douglass homestead *2:00:* Board bus for the Inner Harbor Restaurant, that specializes in the cuisine of the Azores.
