We usually hold this in-person, but this year the Meet the Candidates Night will be a virtual event held via zoom and phone (for those who don't have internet or video). 

Here is a list of candidates running for office. All candidates have been invited to the event.

The Hartland Meet the Candidates night is usually an informal gathering where people can say "hi" and ask about the positions, and ask the candidates questions. We'll gather on Zoom this year, and you'll have an opportunity to listen to introductions from each candidate and why they are running this year.

Here is the Zoom meeting link and information. If you have any questions, please email Nancy at director@hartlandlibraryvt.org or call the library at 802-436-2473.

Mindfulness: The History, Practice, and Use of Cultivating Mindful Awareness

A Vermont Humanities Program with William Edelglass

What is mindfulness? Where does it come from? And how has it appeared in so many contemporary Western institutions, from schools and prisons to corporate meetings and military training? How is mindfulness studied by contemporary neuroscientists and social psychologists, and what are their findings?

This lecture will address these questions by tracing the history of various forms of mindfulness from multiple traditions, starting with early Buddhist texts and ending with the secularization of mindfulness in contemporary American society.

William Edelglass is Director of Studies at the Barre Center for Buddhist Studies and Associate Professor of Philosophy and Environmental Studies at Emerson College.

This is a virtual Zoom event - if attendees do not have video access they may listen using a phone. Contact Nancy at director@hartlandlibraryvt.org for more information.
