SUMMARY:Comedy Stage Show: "The Hitchin' Post"
DESCRIPTION:The acting troupe at Fayette Theater presents this comedy play written by Pat Cook set at Hurley Squonk’s general store\, the Hitchin’ Post. Run by Hurley himself\, who is always behind the counter\, this sort of “everything store” serves as a run-of-the-mill meeting place for the locals. But the normal\, laid-back pace changes when a young couple arrives who have picked today to elope. But an overbearing mother and her meek secretary have recruited local law enforcement to stop the wedding. And that’s just the start of the hilarity! The events of this not-so-ordinary day outside a Texas town will keep you in stitches. The Hitchin’ Post is produced by special arrangement with Eldridge Publishing Company.

SUMMARY:Fayette Theater Film Showing: "Picture Proof"
DESCRIPTION:This showing of Picture Proof\, a documentary by WV filmmaker Tijah Bumgarner\, is offered free at Fayette Theatre. Picture Proof chronicles everyday moments in the life of one family in West Virginia as they rebuild\, repair\, and extend their life in the aftermath of substance use disorder. Ashley Ellis is a mother who is 2 years into her recovery and works as a recovery coach for other women. For now\, her mom Debi Ellis has guardianship of 2 year-old Piper\, Ashley’s daughter. Their family structure takes time as they work through building up what could have crumbled. The film explores the labor of recovery and the love of family and community\, set against the backdrop of often callous representations of the opioid epidemic and those suffering from substance use disorder in the context of a desire to be socially accepted.

SUMMARY:Historic Preservation Month Lecture
DESCRIPTION:The celebration of Historic Preservation Month will continue at 7 p.m. on Thursday\, May 25\, Kelley Berliner\, eastern regional director of The Archaeological Conservancy\, will discuss “The Archaeological Conservancy’s Preservation Efforts in the East: from the Paleoindian through 20th-Century Industrial Sites.” For the past 42 years\, the Conservancy has been the only national nonprofit organization dedicated to the permanent preservation of archaeological sites across the country. Its diverse sites range from the Thunderbird site\, with remains of one of the earliest Paleoindian structures discovered in the U.S.\, to the Pamplin Pipe Factory\, a manufacturing facility that grew from an early cottage industry of making pipes from local clays. Berliner will highlight some of the important sites protected by the Conservancy\, including some in West Virginia\, and the Conservancy’s efforts to preserve them. Berliner holds a B.A. in anthropology from the University of Toronto and an M.A. in historical archaeology from the College of William and Mary. Her interests include public archaeology\, community engagement\, preservation and archaeology of the northeastern United States and Canada. https://wvculture.org/grave-creek-mound-archaeological-complex-celebrates-historic-preservation-and-gardening-in-may/
