SUMMARY:Useable Past\, Folx Song: An Inclusive Look at Appalachian Music
DESCRIPTION:Over 100 million visitors come to Tennessee each year\, and the State typically earns over 20 billion dollars in revenue from tourists. The Usable Past Series continues to explore the opportunities that exist in our own communities to meet the needs of our tourists\, achieve the revenue and interpretive goals at our historic and cultural institutions\, and create an environment where visitors feel safe and represented. \nIn historic Northeast Tennessee\, heritage tourism is a large part of why people travel: they want to know their history. However\, this is a field that has struggled to be inclusive and welcoming to visitors of all backgrounds. The Usable Past Series has engaged tourism industry leaders at all levels and from a variety of venues to discuss their best practices\, their own challenges\, and their successes in meeting their missions. \nSpeakers for this session focused on the music of Appalachia include Ryan Bernard\, musician and archivist\, Dr. Ted Olson\, professor and podcast host of Sepia Tones\, and Dr. William H. Turner\, retired professor and podcast host of Sepia Tones. The panelists will also participate in a question-and-answer session after their presentations. \nPresenters for this session\, Useable Past\, Folx Song: An Inclusive Look at Appalachian Music will specifically focus on showcasing efforts and examples in Northeast Tennessee and the surrounding region pertaining to inclusive tourism\, difficulties faced\, as well as action steps all organizations can take to continue to move forward as a region in providing more inclusive interpretations. This specific session aims to focus on the music and music history of our region and how to include many narratives in this imperative part of Appalachian culture. \nThis free workshop will take place online from 10:00 am to 11:30 am on Thursday\, November 17\, 2022. Dr. Daryl Carter\, Director of the Black American Studies program at East Tennessee University\, and Jules Corriere at the McKinney Center will moderate the Q&A session following the presentations. Participants can register for the event through the McKinney Center’s website at McKinneyCenter.com Participants must register in advance to receive the Zoom link. More information can be found on the Useable Past Facebook page or at McKinneyCenter.com. \nThis workshop series is a collaboration between several organizations\, including the McKinney Center\, the Heritage Alliance of Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia\, the Langston Centre\, and the Black American Studies program at ETSU. The McKinney Center at Booker T. Washington School provides a comprehensive program through Jonesborough’s Mary B. Martin Program for the Arts which teaches various art skills to all participants through a quality program of instruction open to all segments of Jonesborough’s population. The Heritage Alliance is a non-profit dedicated to the preservation of the architectural\, historical\, and cultural heritage of our region and to providing educational experiences related to history and heritage for a wide range of audiences. The Langston Centre is a cultural facility that promotes multicultural awareness and workforce development through arts\, education\, and leadership activities. The Black American Studies program serves a critical role for the College of Arts & Sciences and ETSU by offering high-quality academic course offerings\, superb programming\, and opportunities for personal growth through service.
