More February at Ashe Cultural Arts Center

FEBRUARY AT ASH� CULTURAL ARTS CENTER WORKPLACE WELLNESS LUNCHEON February 23, 2012 Noon-1:30 p.m. Ash� Cultural Arts Center 1712 Oretha Castle Haley Blvd. | New Orleans Free and Open to the Public Each month, Ash� Cultural Arts Center invites its community partners to a free, healthy luncheon featuring speakers who share information about healthy eating and lifestyles. This month, we thought we'd do a different kind of "health" seminar. Beverly Andry will speak on the topic, "Getting Your Financial Health Checkup." Call (504) 569-9070 and let us know you're coming. COMMUNITY CINEMA, FREE FILM SCREENING: "MORE THAN A MONTH" February 24, 2012 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. Ash� Cultural Arts Center 1712 Oretha Castle Haley Blvd. | New Orleans Free and Open to the Public "More Than a Month," is directed by Shukree Hassan Tilghman. Owen Cooper is the producer. Tilghman, a 29-year-old African-American filmmaker, sets out on a cross-country campaign to end Black History Month. He stops in various cities, wearing a sandwich board, to solicit signatures on his petition to end the observance. He explains that relegating Black History Month to the coldest, shortest month of the year is an insult, and that black history is not separate from American history. Through this thoughtful and humorous journey, he explores what the treatment of history tells us about race and equality in a "post-racial" America. A talk-back panel discussion happens right after the film. Free refreshments will be served. For more information, call Drena. S. Clay at (504) 569-9070 . A COMMUNITY SINGS WITH MICHAELA HARRISON February 28, 2012 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. Ash� Cultural Arts Center 1712 Oretha Castle Haley Blvd. | New Orleans Free and Open to the Public Love to sing? Have you heard about the many health benefits of singing? With proper breathing, which gets more oxygen into the blood, the releasing of endorphins can have a similar effect as aerobic exercise. Studies have shown that singing relieves tension and lowers levels of stress, creating a feeling of relaxation. It promotes social interaction, and more. When you concentrate on singing, or on learning a new song, your brain power kicks in, memory is strengthened, and you really don't have time to "worry." So tune up your voice, call a few friends to join you, and come out and sing. No singing experience needed. For more information, call (504) 569-9070 . NEW ORLEANS BLACK MEN & BOYS INITIATIVE PRESENTS COMMUNIVERSITY February 29, 2012 12:00 - 2:00 p.m. Ash� Cultural Arts Center 1712 Oretha Castle Haley Blvd. | New Orleans Free and Open to the Public The Black Men & Boys Initiatives' Public Health CommuniVersity will focus on a three-phase process for improving the Public Health system in NOLA.
