National Train Day at the Chuckey Depot Museum May 7, 202210:00 am - 4:00 pm
Chuckey Railroad Depot Museum, 210 S 2nd Ave, Jonesborough, TN 37659, USA
All aboard! The Chuckey Depot Museum will be celebrating National Train Day on Saturday, May 7 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Watauga Valley Railroad Historical Society member, Brad McCroskey, has created a special audio-visual program about trains around the United States. The program will be approximately 30 minutes long and run every half hour at the museum. There will also be extra museum docents on site to answer any train related questions.
National Train Day is a holiday started by Amtrak in 2008 as a method to spread information to the general public about the advantages of railway travel and the history of trains in the United States. It is held each year on the Saturday closest to May 10th, the anniversary of the pounding of the Golden spike in Promontory, Utah, which marked the completion of the first transcontinental railroad in the U.S. Events were held at major Amtrak stations as well as railroad museums across the country. Although Amtrak no longer celebrates the occasion, lots of train museums throughout the country still do. The Chuckey Depot Museum is proud to join in this tradition.
The Chuckey Depot Museum is free of charge, but donations are greatly appreciated. You can visit the museum in person on Thursday, Friday, and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
For more information on the exhibit or the Chuckey Depot Museum, visit Jonesborough.com, follow the Chuckey Depot on Facebook, or call the Visitor’s Center at 423.753.1010.

Conversations That Matter May 2022 May 12, 20227:00 pm - 8:00 pm
McKinney Center at Booker T. Washington School, 103 Franklin Ave, Jonesborough, TN 37659, USA
Register here: https://bit.ly/3EUBE3C The McKinney Center will host Conversations That Matter on May 12, 2022. In this upcoming “Conversation,” attendees will hear from a very special guest, Tybre Faw and his grandmothers, Leigh Weaver and Lauren Annarino. This conversation will be moderated by McKinney Center Advisory Board Member and volunteer, Michelle Treece and friend of the McKinney Center, Brittany Butler. It will take place via Zoom on May 12, at 7 pm. Register at McKinneyCenter.com. Supported by the East Tennessee Foundation’s Hope in Action Grant, “Conversations that Matter” is a monthly series produced by the McKinney Center in Jonesborough, Tennessee. In each “Conversation” two local guests from different backgrounds (age, race, religion, culture, etc.) explore their own culture and perspective and talk to each other about what makes them unique, discover their similarities, and explore their differences. They will look at where their lives might intersect personally and in the community. The goal of each “Conversation that Matters” is for guests and participants to hear real stories, from real neighbors. This month will feature personal experiences along with real history questions about local Black History and Black History throughout American history. Tybre Faw is a rising 9th grader in Johnson City. He is a sensitive, thoughtful public figure who feels he is chosen to carry on the legacy of Congressman John Lewis. He is an activist for social and racial justice, human rights, climate change, and common-sense gun control who has spoken on the local and national level. Tybre was first featured nationally after meeting John Lewis in Selma at the 53rd Faith and Politics Institute Civil Rights Pilgrimage. Since leading the march across the Edmund Pettis Bridge with Congressman Lewis and other dignitaries and civil rights leaders, he was thrust into the national spotlight. He has been featured on CNN, CNN Politics, ABC World News, CBS This Morning, USA Today, the F&PI, Atlanta Journal, Daily Kos, Politic Nation, Daily Magazine, Youth Today, Tennessean, News Break, MPR News, Johnson City Press, WVLT TV, WJHL TV on his journey to get into “good trouble”. He has been featured in Southern Living, TIME Magazine, Highlights for Kids, and in a music video “Freedom” with Grammy award winner Regina Belle. Tybre was honored to be chosen by the Junior League of Johnson City to help create Tybre Faw’s Little Library which will improve diversity and inclusion in his community. Tybre was invited to accompany Congressman Lewis to vote on the House floor in 2018. In 2020, Tybre was honored by the Lewis family and staff by being asked to speak at the historic Ebenezer Baptist Church for the Homecoming Service in Atlanta for John Lewis. He recited the Congressman’s favorite poem, Invictus. In March 2022, Tybre was invited to attend the Faith & Politics Institute Pilgrimage. He was asked to address members of Congress and dignitaries on the Edmund Pettus Bridge with a moving tribute to his beloved Congressman. Most recently Tybre was invited to explore the development of a youth council for the NAACP of Johnson City. In April, he was honored at the NAACP banquet in Hardin County Kentucky. To assist Tybre in his engagements and travels are his two grandmothers: Lauren Annarino is a sales director covering 25 states in software sales and is one of Tybre’s biggest fans. Leigh Weaver is a retired educator and photographer. This monthly series is inspired by the Diversity & Equity Subcommittee at the McKinney Center, and their desire to highlight the experiences of all voices in Washington County, Tennessee, with an intention to include marginalized groups. By showcasing these conversations, the Diversity & Equity subcommittee hopes to open doors to new ideas and perspectives amongst our very own neighbors. Questions such as, “What was your experience in grade school and how did that make you feel?” or, “Have you experienced exclusion or racism?” For many of us, the answers are different and unique. The McKinney Center believes it is time to talk about our experiences and share them. There is value in uplifting these stories so that we may learn from one another. Then, after hearing from one another our moderators and guest conversationalists will give insight on how to move forward.

Memories in Movement Master Dance Class May 25, 202210:00 am - 1:00 pm
McKinney Center at Booker T. Washington School, 103 Franklin Ave, Jonesborough, TN 37659, USA
Register: https://bit.ly/3w1lvpf World-Renowned Choreographer to present Master Class at McKinney Center Choreographer, dancer, and educator Kevin Iega Jeff will present a master class at the McKinney Center from 10am-1PM on Wednesday, May 25. Go to www.mckinneycenter.com to register. Kevin Iega Jeff is co-founder and creative/executive director of Deeply Rooted Productions in Chicago, Illinois. His work has been featured in the Broadway shows Comin’ Uptown and The Wiz, in several films including Spike Lee’s She’s Gotta Have It, and on television, to include choreographing for the Academy Awards. Iega began studying dance formally at age thirteen. He trained at the Bernice Johnson Cultural Arts Center, New York City’s High School for the Performing Arts, Darvash Ballet School, and the Alvin Ailey American Dance Center before matriculating into The Juilliard School. In 2005, Iega was named as one of the Juilliard School’s 100 Outstanding Alumni in celebration of the school’s centenary anniversary. As a dancer he has been praised for his technical brilliance and rigor, his dramatic power, and the singular ability to perform and bridge different dance forms in a seamless manner, whether it be ballet, modern, contemporary, or African American dance. Among his other awards are those from the National Endowment for the Arts, the National Council for Culture and Arts, the BTAA Best Choreography Award, and the Chicago Dance Makers Forum Grant. Iega currently serves on the Arts & Culture Transition Committee for Chicago Mayor-Elect Lori Lightfoot, and is leading the creation of Deeply Rooted’s new home, the South Side Center for Black Dance and Creative Communities. In addition to his professional works, Iega collaborates on a range of community-engaged projects across the country, including Jonesborough’s latest community play, “We Did It Together” which premiers June 3-12 at the McKinney Center. The master class session Iega will lead is entitled “Memories in Movement,” which begins with a short dance performance by Iega. He will then facilitate participants in movement and dance exercises, with a focus on discovering the different places that emotional memories are stored in the body besides the brain, exploring how we access and engage with a memory — An incident, event, or experience that may live in the body. In this interactive session, dancer, choreographer and educator Kevin Iega Jeff works with participants to examine the relationship between memory, intuition and the body. Following the session, Iega will lead participants in a “brown bag” group sharing of the experience. Participants are encouraged to bring a snack or meal to enjoy together during this discussion. Spaces for this master class are limited. Ages recommended are teen-adult, including senior adults. Modifications will be made for those need to participate in a sitting position. The cost for this session is $26 for the early bird rate and $36 after the early bird special. Reservations may be made online at mckinneycenter.com under workshops. For more information, call the McKinney Center at 423-753-0562. This workshop is sponsored by the Tennessee Arts Commission.

I would like to recommend Nora Davis, Marketing and Promotions Coordinator, for the employee of the month.There are a number of reasons I believe Nora is deserving of being our employee of the month.The first reason I would like to highlight is her social media work regarding our St. Paddy’s Celebration that took place on Saturday, March 19th.We have over 1 million people reached solely from posts regarding this event.
