September Milwaukee events preview: Night Market, reggae and more

September Milwaukee events preview: Night Market, reggae and more

September 21 will be the final Milwaukee Night Market of 2022.

“We have seen tremendous crowds this summer, estimating 30,000 people attending each night during the 5-hour event,” said Megan Kujaw, Westown Association Marketing & Events Director. 

Kujaw said the goal of the event “is to create a unique, fun and safe place for individuals of all ages and backgrounds to experience Milwaukee, as well as promote and support small businesses and local entrepreneurs.” She added that her favorite part of the event is “the positive energy and diversity of the event. From the vendors and food, to the performances and the attendees, it really is a place for people of all ages, places and backgrounds to come and celebrate our city. I also really love seeing everyone dancing at the main intersection throughout the night. One minute the whole crowd is learning how to do the Cupid Shuffle and the next you have young kids in the middle of a dance circle just having the best time with everyone cheering them on.”

The event, held once a month from June through September, features nearly 100 vendors of food, beverage, apparel, art, jewelry and more, as well as entertainment. The event runs from 5 to 10 pm Wednesday, September 21 on West Wisconsin Avenue between Second Street and Vel R. Phillips Avenue.

The final event of 2022 is also College Night, with special activities for new and prospective students at Milwaukee’s colleges and universities.

The Night Market  was first created in 2014 by NEWaukee, a marketing agency that specializes in community engagement.  The Westown Association took over the event in 2021.

September Events With Swan Hills FCSS

UPDATE 1-Spotify chief content officer calls Joe Rogan events a 'learning experience'

September is shaping up to be a busy month for Swan Hills FCSS, with three community favorite events lined up for the residents of Swan Hills. Here’s a quick look at what’s in store over the coming weeks:

Community Registration Night – Registration Night is a Swan Hills tradition offering an excellent opportunity for community groups, clubs, sporting groups, and recreational groups to let the Swan Hills community know who they are, what they do, and how others can join. It’s also a great chance for Swan Hills residents to check out the clubs, teams, and organizations in town. Joining a community club, group, or team offers new opportunities to make community connections and friends while having a great time.

While this event’s focus can tend to be on programs, sports opportunities, and lessons for children and youth, there are plenty of groups and activities for adults to get involved with too.

Registration Night will be held at the Keyano Centre on Sept. 6, from 5 PM to 7 PM.

18th Annual Swan Hills Wellness Fair – The Wellness Fair is all about different ways for people to maintain or improve their physical, spiritual, and mental wellness. Local support services, personal wellness service providers, vendors, and non-profits will join educational and resource exhibitors to offer a wealth of information, services, and products related to health and well-being.

The Wellness fair will be on Sept. 13 at the Keyano Centre from 2 PM to 7 PM. Aspenleaf Energy will provide a community BBQ from 5 PM to 6 PM.

Drive In Movie Night – From the first event in Sept. 2020, the Drive In Movie night has quickly become a crowd pleaser in the Swan Hills community, particularly with families. Swan Hills FCSS is partnering with the Swan Hills Municipal Library, the Town of Swan Hills, Cardinal Energy, and Fresh Air Cinema to present the movie Ghostbusters Afterlife.

The Drive In Movie Night will be held on Sept. 16 in the Keyano Centre parking lot. Moviegoers can start parking their vehicles at 8 PM, with showtime at 9 PM. Movie admission is free, and a concession (Cash Only) will be available.

QNL to mark new academic year with variety of workshops and events in September

Peninsula

Doha: Qatar National Library (QNL) is set to host an exciting lineup of events and workshops for members this September, focusing on heritage and research as well as health, education and learning to support children, parents and teachers for the new academic year. The Library will also hold a lecture on sports event management in Qatar and accessibility features for spectators with disabilities in the run-up to the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022.

On 3 September, researchers are invited to attend a one-day event dedicated to strengthening their skills through three technical workshops that give oversight of both quantitative and qualitative methodologies.

On 3, 10, 17, and 24 September, the Library will host its second “Young Adults Coding Camp,” in collaboration with AdStep, an EdTech start-up led by a group of engineers from Qatar University. The sessions aim to equip young adults with technical skills related to coding, robotics, gaming and design.

On 6 September, the Library will host “The Creative Writing Circle for Adults” which provides an opportunity for creative writers to come together and share their work. The group provides inspiration, feedback and encouragement in a supportive environment.

With the beginning of another academic year, children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) need specific strategies and a special classroom environment that supports their learning. Teachers are invited to join this lecture on “Regulating Behavior in a Classroom Environment for Students with ADHD” on 10 September, to learn about some of these strategies and ways to put them into practice.

The Library will host a series of seminars on 11 and 17 September, where parents are invited to learn skills, tips, tricks, and habits to support children to get to the next level in their academic lives. The seminars will cover topics ranging from human psychology, neurolinguistic programming and physiology to smart ways to study, how to construct an essay and how to improve your memory.

On 14 September, the Qatar Philharmonic Orchestra will be back at the Library to perform Schuberts Octet in F Major. This beloved titan of the chamber music repertoire comprises six movements and effuses a tender warmth of expression and lyrical beauty from first note to last.

On 15 September, the Library will host “FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022: Accessibility for Spectators with Disabilities,” a practical discussion guide to raise awareness about the accessibility features of FIFA 2022 to ensure that the unique atmosphere, matchday services and passion for the event can be shared and enjoyed by everyone, regardless of physical ability. The program will be presented by representatives from the Supreme Committee for Delivery & Legacy and Qatar Social and Cultural Center for the Blind.

On 15 September, the Library invites teachers and parents to a workshop that discusses how to nurture and guide gifted and creative children to help them get the most out of their talents.

Then, on 18 September and with the FIFA World Cup rapidly approaching, the Library will host a lecture that will cover the historical aspects of managing and hosting large sporting events as well as the current and future implications for Qatar. Guest speakers for this event will be Dr. Danyel Reiche and Dr. Matthias Krug. Dr. Danyel Reiche is a Visiting Research Fellow at the Center for International and Regional Studies (CIRS) and an Associate Professor at Georgetown University in Qatar where he leads a research initiative on the FIFA World Cup 2022. With Paul Brannagan, he published the book Qatar and the 2022 FIFA World Cup: Politics, Controversy, Change (Palgrave Macmillan 2022), and edited the volume Handbook of Sport in the Middle East (Routledge 2022). Dr. Krug is an academic and author of Journeys on the Football Carpet, the first book published about Qatars incredible football journey.

Finally, the Library, the regional IFLA Center for Preservation and Conservation in the Arab Region and the Middle East, will host a webinar on 27 September to highlight the efforts of the National Center for Manuscripts in the Adrar region of Algeria, known for its many family-held collections, which contain a vast number of manuscripts. The lecture will be presented by Belfakir Ahmed, a specialist in the preservation and conservation of manuscripts.
