Description:

Students in the “Recreation Services for Special Populations” class at the University of Maine at Machias will host a disabilities awareness night on Wednesday, November 4, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Reynolds Center on the UMM campus.

Participants in this program, titled “Your World, My World, Our Diverse World,” will have the opportunity to experience simulated disabilities at 10 different stations, each focused on a specific disability. Stations will include hearing impairments, spinal injuries, visual impairments, temporary disabilities, permanent disabilities, aging, learning disabilities, autism, mobility, and more. Information booths will be available for participants to learn about resources, services, and career opportunities.

Misunderstandings often arise about disabilities and abilities, mobility and how it affects us all, and about barriers that limit participation and communication. The public is invited to join UMM students, faculty, and staff in experiencing firsthand what it is like to live in another’s world. The event promises to be an evening of challenges, learning opportunities, and fun, with drawings and door prizes.

“Your World, My World, Our Diverse World” is sponsored by UMM’s Professional Studies Division, Student Senate, MRPASS and Hall Council. Other
contributing groups and organizations include the UMM Student Education Association, UMM Behavioral Studies students, UMM Career Development, UMM
Student Support Center, UMM Counseling Services, Maine Autism Society, and Cooperative Extension’s Senior Companion Program.

Powers Hall, Art Galleries

Description:

The Art Galleries at the University of Maine at Machias will feature a textile collection created by history professor Kay Kimball, beginning November 6 and running through the month of December. The exhibit is titled “Appalachian Traces: Landscape Studies in Textiles.”

An associate professor of history at UMM, Kimball created the series of quilted batik panels after a sabbatical in the spring of 2008. She spent the semester conducting a comparative study of southern Appalachian coal mining and northern Appalachian lumbering of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The quilted panels are based on what Kimball learned about those industries and their impact on the environment.

An opening reception will be held on Friday, November 6, from 4:00 – 6:00 p.m., providing an opportunity to meet the artist and hear about her work. Refreshments will be provided.

The UMM Art Galleries are open 1:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, and are located on the first floor of Powers Hall. For more information, please call Art Gallery Director Bernie Vinzani at (207) 255-1279.
