SUMMARY:June Movie at Hudson Library
DESCRIPTION:Hudson Library continues monthly film screenings on selected Wednesdays. \nOn Wednesday June 18 at 2 PM\, watch a film that puts a clever spin on movies like Mission: Impossible\, shining a spotlight on an elderly grandmother as an unlikely action hero.  With infectious humor\, the film employs familiar tropes of the action genre in hilarious\, age-appropriate ways to tackle aging with agency. In the first leading film role of her 70-year career\, 93-year-old June Squibb plays a strong-willed woman with grit and determination\, demonstrating that she is more than capable of taking care of business\, despite what her family might believe. \nFor more information or to request an accommodation\, please call the library at 828-526-3031. Hudson Library\, 554 Main Street in Highlands\, is open 10:00 AM-5:30 PM Tuesday through Friday and 10:00 AM-4:00 PM on Saturday. \nNOTE: Due to production studio guidelines\, the library may not include movie titles in its print advertising.

SUMMARY:Author Talk: Pippa and Andry Seichrist @ Hudson Library
DESCRIPTION:Local writers Pippa and Andry Seichrist will introduce their recently-released memoir\, My Life Before: A Memoir of a Family Created Through Adoption\, on Tuesday June 24 at 2:00 PM. Books will be available for purchase and signing at this free program. \nMy Life Before captures both the joyful moments and the heart-wrenching challenges as Andry adjusts to a new life in America after being adopted by Pippa and Ron\, offering a perspective seldom heard from adopted children. Readers are taken on a transformative journey through Andry’s memories—ranging from childhood struggles in a Ukraine village\, to the orphanage\, to the eventual adoption that brought new meaning to his life. \nPippa and Andry Seichrist live in the Highlands area. Pippa started Satolah Creek Farm\, a magical wedding venue and farm stay located on a 120-year-old farm.

Before moving to the mountains full-time\, Pippa\, along with her husband\, started and ran the most awarded advertising and design school in the world. It has 15 locations in eight countries. After attending his parent’s school\, Andry started his career as a copywriter and worked at some of the top agencies in the country\, but the mountains called to him too. He started Grass Stone Wood\, a landscaping and home maintenance company that serves the greater Highlands area. \nFor more information or to request an accommodation\, please call the library at 828-526-3031.

SUMMARY:Zahner Lecture Series | Bats in Your Backyard at Highlands Nature Center
DESCRIPTION:Featured Speaker: Rada Petric\, Assistant Research Professor and Director of the UNC IE Highlands Field Site\, UNC Institute for the Environment. \nUrbanization\, landscape modification and concomitant pollutants (sound\, light\, and chemical compounds) alter the natural landscape which in turn influences animal behavior\, biology\, and survival. Sound\, light and microplastics are emerging contaminants of interest. Due to the increased detection of these emerging contaminants\, most habitats have become threatened. Despite the documented record of their occurrence in literature\, there remains a great deal of mystery surrounding their occurrence’s ecological consequence. Her primary research interest is understanding how anthropogenic disturbances are altering community composition and reshaping ecosystems. Here\, we discuss several studies focused on understanding how bats and small mammals respond to human disturbances. \nFREE | No registration required \nSponsored by Mary Todd & Jimmy Davis\, Nancy & Lyle Nichols\, and Miriam & Vernon Skiles.
