SUMMARY:Earth Appreciation Day - Plants and Poetry
DESCRIPTION:Join Audubon Mid-Atlantic and Temple University at the Discovery Center as we work to maintain our habitats and conservation work for Earth Day! This site is home to over 170+ species of birds\, many species of insects and mammals\, and up to thousands of visitors per year. Our efforts can aid in the livelihood of these animals and stewardship for the people. We’ll focus on removing invasive bushes and plants around the trailhead so we can plant native shrubs in the future\, as well as fill our seed packets for the public seed library. \nAfterwards\, we open our space to an open stage for those to come and share their voice and appreciation of our earth and community. This can be through poetry\, stories and other types of offerings. This session will start with a brief\, Strawberry Mansion history lesson from our neighborhood and tour leader Judith. \nTime: 1-2:30pm Volunteer Engagement / 2:30-4pm Open Stage \nVolunteer and Open Stage sign up can be found here! https://forms.gle/WEattkr7Q34WwufS8 \nReach out to audubon@discoveryphila.org with any questions.

This rally will\nlaunch the TAKE 5: Stop the Violence Campaign with an active response to the need for\naccessible strategies that promote and support violence de-escalation. The event will\nhighlight a sequence of concerted efforts designed to saturate the City of Philadelphia with a\nmessage Proposing Personal Pause\, Teaching Tangible Tolerance and Cultivating a Culture of\nPeace (Count\, “1\,2\,3\,4\,5 Take 5). The day will also gather Philadelphia’s Community of Peace\nWorkers to celebrate the work done during the United Nations’ International Peace Week.\nViolence is a pervasive presence in our society. How do we stop its spread\, and how can we\nmanage the anger and frustration that can often result in a violent outcome? Philadelphia\nnative Warren Cooper is on a mission to Pass The Peace! The TAKE 5: Stop the Violence\nCampaign is a behavioral science approach to what is\, at its root\, a behavioral health\nissue. The approach of Taking 5 is a simple hands-on way to begin the process of adjusting\nthe hardwired default settings in our communities from entitled reactivity to proactive\npeacekeeping – one person at a time – one situation at a time – one community at a time. In\nthe weeks and months to follow\, Berean will serve as a Peace destination for workshops and\nmeetings on anti-violence programs and services. Joining Cooper in this Campaign\nare Mothers In Charge\, Berean Presbyterian Church\, We Embrace Fatherhood\, Music Media\nMinistry\, AIB Marketing\, YHD Enterprises\, and Peace and Harmony Records. – more –\nCooper\, who is the Campaign Coordinator for the TAKE 5: Stop the Violence Campaign \, is a\nnouveau-spirit inspirational singer\, songwriter\, and producer whose work draws from the\nliturgical tradition and the improvisational freeform of Jazz. He is set to release his CD from\nPeace and Harmony Records\, entitled The Permanently Peaceful Project on the International\nDay of Peace\, September 21st. The project is a contemporary blend of jazz\, gospel\, neo-soul\nand spoken word artistry. A cut from the CD titled TAKE 5: Stop The Violence \, is a reframing\nof Dave Brubeck and Paul Desmond Jazz composition Take 5. That Campaign theme song will\nbe performed live along with other selections from the project at the event.\nCooper is the son of Rev. J. Jerome Cooper\, who pastored the Berean Presbyterian Church for\n33 years. He was nurtured by the concept of music as an instrument of healing and\nreconciliation. His worldwide view was shaped by the dual reality of growing up Black in the\nshadow of Philadelphia’s 1964 race riots and the influence of his father’s commitment to\nreaching across cultures and sectors to build bridges. It was his father’s dedication to\nrestoring a spirit of compassion and peace in the community and the world that has most\nimpacted the themes he explores in his music. Today\, Cooper is most passionate about using\nhis music as a tool to inspire others into examining solutions during these tumultuous times.\nFor Philly Pass The Peace Rally registration and information visit take5stoptheviolence.com .\n# # #
