Music, reading highlight event

NORTHUMBERLAND — Priestley Chapel Associates presents an informal program of words and music from 9:30 to 10 a.m. on Sunday at Joseph Priestley Memorial Chapel, 380 Front St., Northumberland. The music portion of the program includes Charles Phelps playing piano and the historic John Wind organ.

This Sunday continues a year-long reading of “A Sand County Almanac” by naturalist Aldo Leopold with a reading of “November” by Ben Olena. He and others will then read several of Olena’s own poems. Olena is a retired industrial arts teacher and now lives in Sullivan County near Forksville. Priestley Chapel Associates is a secular, non-profit 501 3 corporation established in 1977 to care for and manage the Joseph Priestley Memorial Chapel, the beautiful memorial garden and the historic 1811 John Wind organ located in the chapel. This country chapel was built in 1834 by descendants of Joseph Priestley and members of the Unitarian congregation in Northumberland. Currently, the chapel is open to the public the first Sunday of each month for a program of words and music. For more information, visit www.priestleychapelassociates.org.
