SUMMARY:A Voice from the Congo - 7pm
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]A Voice from the Congo will be presented by Toto Kisaku\, a theater director\, actor\, set designer and producer from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) who is currently residing in Connecticut. For +17 years\, he has traveled the world sharing his experience through shows\, workshops\, and residencies. For this presentation\, Kisaku will provide historical background regarding past and current rulers of the DRC and share the story of his life growing up in the DRC. His talk will also touch on his socially conscious theatre work\, and his point of view on the cost of freedom. \nKisaku was selected in 2003 among the young artists of Kinshasa by Jacques Livchine and Philip Boulay to represent Congo in the 20th edition at the Limoges festival and to perform in two pieces by Bernard M. Koltes. Kisaku was also in the French version of “Topdog / Underdog” by Suzan L. Parks at the Forum de Blanc Mesnil\, the Théâtre Louis Jouvet and the Théâtre de l’Athénée in Paris. He has produced plays such as “Basal’ya Bazoba\, “Rencontres au pluriel\,” “Surface 1 et 2\,” “20 ans\, et alors!” and “Mort d’Oluwemi d’Ajumako” among others. Kisaku has also participated in the Avignon\, Limoges\, Paris Quartier d’Eté\, Taz à Oostende\, ICAF\, Pilotobes\, A/D Werf\, Right About Now\, Toseka\, Mantsina\, and Connexion Kin festivals. \nIn 2003\, he founded a theater group\, K-Mu Théâtre\, (Kinois en Mutation) based in Kinshasa with other young Arts and Drama graduates from the National Institute of Arts as a Centre for Research and Artistic Creation in Urban Areas. Toto Kisaku and K-Mu Théâtre were the 2010 recipients of the Freedom to Create Prize\, an international award that supports and recognizes artists who strive for social change in places where there is no freedom to create. The prize was awarded for their production of Basal’ya Bazoba a play about the violent persecution of children accused of witchcraft. \nKisaku’s African Tale will be performing at the Tilt Kids Festival in March in collaboration with the Cultural Services of the French Embassy and he is currently working with local companies from the Institut Français de N’Djamena. His newest work is in full preparation and will be performed in July 2017. \nMr. Kisaku’s presentation will be primarily in French however\, there will be visuals and/or translations for those who are less fluent in French. Light refreshments will be served after the presentation and time to discuss further questions with our speaker. \nPlease call 203-707-0710 to RSVP – STANDING ROOM ONLY. A suggested donation of $5 is kindly requested to help defray the costs of this event.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:2016 Give Local!
DESCRIPTION:Give Local Greater Waterbury & Litchfield Hills is a 36-hour online giving event hosted by the Connecticut Community Foundation and is part of the nationwide Give Local America initiative.\n\nEvery dollar raised for our organization during this 36-hour campaign will be stretched further by bonus funds and potential prizes donated by Connecticut Community Foundation and their generous sponsors. (In 2015\, the bonus percentage was 15% – meaning that a $100 gift magically transformed into $115!)\n\n\nIf you are planning to give an annual gift to your favorite nonprofit\, consider making that gift during this 36-hr campaign so you can help generate momentum and help stretch your donation with the available bonus funds.\n\nRemember also to let your friends\, family\, and social network know about our organization by asking them to join in supporting us. \nAnd\, if you’ve already given what you planned to give this year\, perhaps you could give a little more. Even $10 contributions add up and will help us take advantage of this fundraising opportunity.

SUMMARY:Using Cinema in the Classroom - Teacher Workshop - 10:30 am
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, April 2\, in collaboration with the CT Chapter of the American Association of Teachers of French (AATF)\, the AFNWCT has invited professor Anne-Christine Rice of Tufts University in Boston to present a workshop titled: “La Grande Guerre: du cinéma à la salle de classe.” This workshop will discuss how even difficult relevant cultural topics\, such as WWI\, can be easily introduced into the classroom through the use of films such as the movie “Joyeux Noel” (PG-13). This workshop will give French teachers three levels of activities (depending on the level of the students) that they can take away and use immediately. \nRegistration starts at 10:30\, run through lunch and finish around 1:30 pm. \nFor the last 19 years Anne-Christine Rice has  developed an innovative method that places film at the core of the French language experience. Films are the springboard for class discussions\, language acquisition and cultural awareness.\nHer first textbook\, “Cinema for French Conversation”​\, now in its 4th edition\, established a series that includes Spanish\, German\, Italian\, Russian and Portuguese. Her latest textbook\, “La France contemporaine à travers ses films”\, continues to leverage film to explore present-day French culture and society. What started as an innovation in 2000 is now the standard. \nThe cost of this workshop is $25 for members of AATF or AFNWCT. $35 for non members and includes lunch. \nClick HERE to sign up through the website of the CT Chapter of AATF.
