ARTS, CULTURE & SOCIETY EVENTS Narberth Bookshop Hosts Bala Cynwyd Resident Jim Saunders and His World War I-Era Novel Animal Dances iction might be the last thing someone would expect from a retired University of Pennsylvania professor of Otolaryngology, Physiology and Neuroscience. But as fate would have it, a clean out of a relative’s home led Jim Saunders to a treasure trove of World War I-era letters that inspired him to write his first novel Animal Dances. “I carried black plastic bags of letters from my wife’s aunt’s house and I just pored through them. I saw in them a story that needed to be told,” Saunders explained. “While the story is itself fiction, it is based on the lives of those who went to war and those who stayed behind.” Saunders will be at Narberth Bookshop located at 221 Haverford Avenue, Narberth, PA, for a book signing and reading on Thursday June 28 at 7 p.m. Publisher Shorehouse Books (HOPress-Shorehouse Books) will provide light refreshments for those who attend. Animal Dances creates an engaging story of a young man conscripted into war, who discovers an unknown capacity to be bold and decisive, while enduring unimaginable hardship. Before the war, he

That is a distant memory now as Harry struggles to survive the devastation of the Western Front while driving a wagon carrying a lethal cargo. Back home, his family grapples with a killing flu, and Fannie seeks to ease her fear that he will not come home. Surviving the searing yellow gas, Harry returns to find nothing the same, and only his war buddies save him from horrible memories. As life passes, he asks if it could have been different. This is a WWI story beyond the trenches, where men toil in constant danger, in a conflict that will impact them for a lifetime. “I wanted to preserve the history behind the story and show the humanity of this time,” Saunders noted. “This was such a pivotal part of our country and the world. So many lives were lost; so many hardships and challenges faced. In many ways the world never recovered. It lost an innocence. I felt I had to do this book.” An avid fisherman, kayaker, stamp collector and world traveler, Saunders relishes in storytelling about his adventures throughout the world. He continues to lecture on the topic of Hearing Loss in the Elderly and is active on the Board of Trustees of the Hearing Loss Association of America. He and his wife of 50 years, Elaine, live in a 106-year-old home in Bala Cynwyd. He spends time with the families of their two sons which include three granddaughters.

T
day June 24 at 2 p.m. at the Kimmel Center’s Verizon Hall.

Cohen and are connected by the theme of “the future.” All the selections during the concert were either written or arranged for the choir. Alumni have also been invited on stage to join the choir in one of its signature songs. Tickets are available now at www.KimmelCenter.org. “This year’s season finale is going to be our biggest concert yet, with music that spans all of the choir’s 50 years,” said Jeffrey Smith PBCC Artistic Director. “We’re especially excited for the public to hear the premiere of our new compositions.” Established in 1968, and under the direction of Jeffrey R. Smith since 2004, the Choir is known as “America’s Ambassadors of Song,” having proudly represented both the City of Philadelphia and the United States of America on its many concert tours across the globe.

Tasty Talk with Former Governor Ed Rendell Continued from front page
notably, Mayor of Philadelphia, where The New York Times once proclaimed he led ‘one of the most stunning turnarounds in recent urban history.’ A devoted Philadelphia Eagles fan, Rendell is currently a football analyst on Comcast SportsNet’s Eagles Pregame/Postgame Live. In January 2011, Ed Rendell became an on-air political analyst for NBC, where he regularly appears to offer commentary on political issues. Rendell left office in 2011 due to term-limits, and as a straight-shooting author, released a book, “A Nation of Wusses: How America’s Leaders Lost the Guts to Make Us Great” the following year, which was a runaway national bestseller. The “Tasty Talk” luncheon will begin at 12:30 p.m. with passed hors d’oeuvres, followed by the former Governor’s Tasty Talk, an open Q&A, and a family-style lunch prepared by the award-winning chefs of Yangming. Tickets are only $20 (which includes tax and tip) for each pre-registered guest. The walk-ins to the luncheon will be charged $25. The prix fixe price does not include the available alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. All proceeds from Yangming’s June 27 “Tasty Talk” will be donated to The Rendell Center for Civics and Civic Engagement. This mission of The Rendell Center is to promote civic education and engagement by providing opportunities for educators, students, and the broader community to develop the knowledge, practices, and dispositions of engaged citizenship. The co-chairs and innovators of this “Tasty Talk” concept are noted Realtor Michelle Leonard, who has already come into local notoriety as “The Hat Lady,” and her close friend, Dr. Thanuja Hamilton. “Their bookings of interesting and accomplished speakers have proven to be very popular, but this booking tops them all,” said Yangming owner Michael Wei. “Our Tasty Talks have been incredibly successful and we are grateful for the opportunity to bring one of the most recognizable faces and voices in Pennsylvania to our community.” Yangming is located at Conestoga and County Line Roads in Bryn Mawr.

On a small speck of dust is a planet called Who, lives a young child named JoJo who is feeling quite blue. But when Horton meets JoJo, oh the things they can think! They’ll save all of Whoville as fast as a blink. Wolf Performing Arts Center (Wolf PAC), a nonprofit located in Bryn Mawr, will present Seussical at St. Joseph’s Bluett Theater, June 15-17. This cast features 42 middle and high school students from 17 different schools across the Greater Philadelphia Area. “An elephant protecting a planet that lives on a dust speck is silly and wild, to be sure, but at its core this story is about standing up for what you believe in, no matter what. We try to do that as people, on big and small levels,” said Director Janine Merolla. Merolla has been directing the cast along with local professional teaching artists David Snyder, music director, and Zachary Chiero, choreographer. Every rehearsal, the directors encourage the cast to truly feel the message behind the story. “Dr. Seuss’s books are so beloved to readers everywhere because of the way he connects his zany, colorful world to our world today,” said Merolla. “Horton’s motto of ‘A person’s a person, no matter how small,’ is also a Wolf PAC motto. No matter who you are, you should feel that you belong. And if you don’t, we, as fellow human beings, need to be Horton and stand beside you until you feel heard.” Tickets can be purchased by visiting https://wolfperformingartscenter.secure.force.com/ticket.

This will be an indelible experience for them and I congratulate them all.”

Main Line Health Chief of Colorectal Surgery Explains New ACS Guidelines for Colorectal Cancer Screenings he American Cancer Society (ACS) released new recommendations for colorectal cancer screening guidelines, including the age screenings should begin for colorectal cancer. Previously, the screening age for a person at average risk was 50. The new guidelines have reduced that age to 45. “By lowering the screening age, our goal is to detect colorectal cancer earlier in patients who are at an increased risk for the disease,” explains John Marks, MD, chief of colorectal surgery at Main Line Health and medical director of the Harry Paul Mirabile, Sr. Colorectal Cancer Center at Lankenau Medical Center. “Even with advances in detection and treatment, colorectal cancer is the number one abdominal malignancy that affects both men and women. Roughly 1 in 20 Americans will develop this cancer, and the tragedy is that it is entirely preventable by getting a colonoscopy.” Last year, the Journal of the National Cancer Institute found that colon cancer rates increased from one percent to 2.4 percent annually since the mid-1980s among adults age 20–39. For the 39 years encompassed in the study, rectal cancer rates grew 3.2 percent annually for adults age 20–39. “Colon and rectal cancer have, historically, affected older men and women. But the most recent research shows an increase in the number of adults in their twenties and thirties who are being diagnosed with these cancers, particularly rectal cancer, and this requires doctors and patients to sit up and take notice,” says Dr. Marks. What about people with a high risk of colorectal cancer? If you’re already at an increased risk for colorectal cancer as a result of your lifestyle or family history, you may need to begin screenings at an earlier age. Talk to your health care provider about your risk factors and what age you should begin screenings. People who are at high or increased risk for colorectal cancer can include those with: • A family or personal history of colon or rectal cancer or colorectal polyps. • A family or personal history of other cancers: ovarian, uterine, gastric and breast. • A history of inflammatory bowel disease. • A personal history of radiation to the abdomen or pelvic area as a result of cancer treatment. Your options for colorectal cancer screening The ACS’ new guidelines also issue recommendations about colorectal cancer screening methods.

In its new guidelines, the ACS recommends choosing from six different types of screening tests: NON MEDICAL HOMECARE • Highly sensitive fecal immunochemical test annually. • Highly sensitive guaiac-based fecal occult blood test available 24/7 610-660-7785 Hourly or live In annually. www.CompanionForU.com • Multi-targeted stool DNA test every three years. • Colonoscopy every 10 years. • Virtual colonoscopy (CT colonography) every five years. • Flexible sigmoidoscopy every five years.

any people don’t access the supports they need for aging and living with disabilities at home, in the community – where the overwhelming majority prefers to remain. Often, when they do so, their challenges have become overwhelming and critical. By that time, they may have expended much in the way of time and resources, said Lance Robertson, assistant secretary for aging and administrator for the Administration for Community Living (ACL) during a recent town hall meeting at Center in the Park senior center in Germantown. Area agencies on aging, which coordinate aging information and services for people in their geographic area, can play a vital role in connecting people to resources, noted Holly Lange, president and CEO of Philadelphia Corporation for Aging (PCA). “Area agencies on aging were created to be leaders in aging and community living. As the area agency on aging for Philadelphia, PCA is the first place where people in the city can turn for this information and connect to programs and services they need,” she said in an interview after the meeting. “Our mission is to improve the quality of life for older adults and adults with disabilities in Philadelphia and to assist them in achieving the greatest possible levels of health, independence and productivity.” Lange said that connecting people to resources, one of “five pillars,” of ACL’s vision can be key to the other four. Robertson described those additional pillars as supporting family and caregivers, protecting rights and preventing abuse, expanding employment opportunities and strengthening the aging and disability networks. “We coordinate services for people at all stages of the aging and disability spectrum. This ranges from senior centers and care at home to meal programs, caregiver support, elder abuse prevention, employment programs and more. We want to help people remain as independent as possible for as long as possible,” Lange said. In addition, PCA plays a leading role in the aging and disability network. We work to foster collaborations, share resource information and promote best practices to strengthen that network. “We are pleased that Secretary Robertson has outlined goals to strengthen and expand these five priorities on the federal and local levels, and we welcome his support and advocacy,” she said. “ACL’s vision aligns with PCA’s ongoing commitment to the more than 140,000 older adults and adults with disabilities in Philadelphia whose lives we touch each year. “We encourage anyone with a question or concern to call the PCA Helpline or to go to our website, www.pcaCares.org.” The PCA Helpline, 215-765-9040, is open from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays and is available 24/7 for reporting elder abuse.

“Eidi: Art by Students of Mashiul Chowdhury,” will be on view during a one day reception in the Duke Gallery, Sunday, June 17, 2018 from 2 - 5 p.m. The group of young, pre-teen students, mostly from the Bangladesh-American community in the Delaware Valley, belongs to SharinasArtyCrafty, a South Jerseybased youth arts group. Their teacher, Mashiul Chowdhury, is a talented physician and artist who has shown widely throughout the Philadelphia region, including a past solo show of his paintings and photographs at the Community Arts Center’s Duke Gallery. “Eidi” is the coveted gift kids get at Eid, the premier religious/cultural festival for predominantly Muslim Bangladeshis. The show captures some of the joy and pleasure of the festival as experienced through the practice of art. In addition to the art exhibition, Swati Chaturvedi, founder of Community Bollywood Dance Project, will give a fun dance workshop at the event. The award-winning gallery will then be home to an exhibition featuring art by summer fellows Martha Knox, a Philadelphia printmaker and teaching artist, and Jenny Graham-Hougah, a representational painter based in Southern New Jersey, from June 23 through July 20. The exhibition will open with an artist reception on June 24, 2018 from 2 - 4 p.m. The fellowship offers teaching artists an opportunity to participate in the exhibition which will be referenced by CAC’s Summer Spree campers throughout the summer and to design and lead a collaborative project with the visual art campers that is linked to the exhibit. Also on view in the additional first floor CAC galleries beginning June 11 is the 3D work of the Community Arts Center’s Ceramic Associates in the Teacher’s Lounge Gallery and watercolors by Emily Nicholson on the BeaDazzle Gallery Wall. On the second floor of the Arts Center, the special exhibition, “Beauty in the Ordinary: Celebrating the Artistic Legacy of Katharine Hayes Porter,” will be on view on the walls of the ballroom from June 24 through July 21, the Stairwell Gallery will feature 2D work of the Community Arts Center’s Mixed Media Advanced Studio through August 18 and the Fay Freedman Gallery will feature paintings by Jeff Savery through June 16 and mixed media by Michael and Dean DiPrinzio from June 24 to July 21. Exhibitions and receptions are free and open to the public. Gallery hours are Mon. - Thurs.: 9 a.m. - 7:30 p.m.; Friday: 9 a.m. - 3 p.m.; and Saturday: 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. For more information on the artist receptions or driving directions, contact Community Arts Center at 610-566-1713, online at www.communityartscenter.org or follow on Facebook.
Main Line Art Center Presents Armen Yepoyan’s “Distracted by Abstraction: Figuratively Speaking” June 15 – July 16, 2018 • Opening Reception June 21 ain Line Art Center presents the colorful paintings of Armen Yepoyan in a special Summer Gallery Rental Series exhibition titled, “Distracted by Abstraction: Figuratively Speaking,” on view in the Karen and Herbert Lotman Foundation Gallery from June 15 to July 16. An opening reception with the artist will be held on Thursday, June 21 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., free and open to the public. Yepoyan, a local Wynnewood resident, will show a series of new works on canvas that he describes as a collision of the figurative and abstract, two genres he has explored extensively over the last decade. His acrylic paintings often depict stylized figures on abstract backgrounds that represent his interpretation of nature, leaving the decision of where they are based up to each viewer. An architect and fine art graduate in his native Republic of Armenia, Yepoyan has a unique ability to marry the structural elements of his subjects with the abstract elements of the world around them. “Looking at a new, white canvas brings a feeling of peace, calmness and purity,” says Yepoyan, “My goal is to utilize the space with vivid colors and abstract compositions that will ultimately leave the same effect of tranquility on the finished artwork.” Since permanently relocating to the U.S. in 1994, Yepoyan has exhibited extensively in galleries, museums and art centers nationwide, including 10 solo shows to date. His work is part of private and public collections worldwide, including the Embassy of the Republic of Armenia in Washington, D.C., and several corporate commissions, and has been featured in a number of art journals and publications including Art in America, Washington Times, and World & I. Main Line Art Center is located at 746 Panmure Road in Haverford, behind the Wilkie Lexus dealership just off of Lancaster Avenue. The Art Center is easily accessible from public transportation and offers abundant free parking.
