Jo says:
In 2016, I visited Finland on a research fellowship to learn about the life and work of artist/author Tove Jansson. I will present a slideshow and talk about Jansson’s work as a cartoonist, painter, picture-book maker, and novelist — as well as her unique life, which she split between in Helsinki and a small remote island in the Gulf of Finland.
Jo Dery is an artist who experiments with visual storytelling. She makes animation, books and comics, works on paper, and multi-media projects. Her creative practice is rooted in drawing and writing. Her short films have screened at the Ann Arbor Film Festival, the International Film Festival Rotterdam, and the Eyeworks Festival of Experimental Animation.
She earned a BFA in Film/Animation/Video from the Rhode Island School of Design and an MFA in Interdisciplinary Arts from Goddard College. Jo has a decade of higher education teaching experience, with a specialty in Animation and Digital Media. She is currently an Associate Professor of Film Studies at Keene State College in southern New Hampshire.

Do you look forward to spring for the beauty that your gardens produce? Do you love
your gardens but not the seemingly endless hours of maintenance that they demand?
Have you ever found yourself resenting your gardens because their care prevents you
from pursuing other interests? And finally, have you come to the painful realization that
you and your gardens have aged and changed over time?
“Aging Gardens, Aging Gardeners” responds to these questions. It is intended to help
all of us come to terms with our aging, but very much beloved gardens. Ann presents
strategies for gardening more wisely: taking care of ourselves as we garden; assessing
our home landscapes; prioritizing gardening tasks; managing mature plants; and,
creating smaller, simpler gardens.
For years, our gardens have given us great joy. This talk offers us ways by which we
can continue to enjoy these beautiful spaces with much less work.
Ann McEntee is a former Communications and Theatre professor. She left teaching to
earn a Master of Landscape Architecture from the University of New Mexico. While
living in Santa Fe, she earned her certification as a Master Gardener, and more
recently, her Advanced Master Gardener certification.
Ann currently teaches architectural and landscape history for Keene State College’s
CALL (Cheshire Academy for Lifelong Learning) program and works part-time as a
landscape consultant. The former lead gardener at the Cathedral of the Pines, she
presents garden talks to area townships and organizations.
