"Freedom's Crossroads: The Underground Railroad in Phoenixville"
Long before freedom seekers reached Canada, many found refuge, opportunity, and community in places like Phoenixville. Through historic streets, landmarks, personal stories, and primary sources, this presentation explores how one Pennsylvania town became part of a sophisticated network that helped men, women, and children pursue freedom and build new lives. Join us for a terrific learning opportunity and discussion.&nbsp;
Bio:Dionne (Dee'ahn) Patterson is the founder of UGR3DAY Underground Railroad Experiences Inc., as well as a historian and program developer dedicated to uncovering and sharing the often-untold stories of free and enslaved African Americans during the antebellum era. Through immersive education, storytelling, and experiential learning, she highlights the faith, resilience, knowledge, and community that shaped the Underground Railroad. A graduate of Delaware State University with a degree in psychology, Dionne is also a certified cultural interpretive guide, genealogist, herbalist, and author. She has written three children’s books and developed historical comic books and other educational publications that make Black history engaging and accessible to young readers. Dionne has developed Black history curriculum for Valley Forge National Historical Park and, most recently, K–12 Black history curriculum for the State of Delaware. She specializes in professional development and has spoken across the country to train educators, community leaders, and organizations in culturally responsive and historically grounded programming. Through UGR3DAY, Dionne provides school programs, educational field trips, community history tours, workshops, and immersive learning experiences. Her expertise has also been featured in two documentaries, including Delaware State University’s Women of Vision, Women of Purpose and North to Freedom, a PBS documentary released in 2025. Through her curriculum, publications, training, and public history programs, Dionne remains committed to truth-telling, empowerment, and bringing African American history to life.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ugr3day.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">www.ugr3day.com</a>

Jigsaw printing is a playful technique where you create one carved stamp, then cut it into separate pieces so you can print with multiple colors more easily — think flowers and stems, a boat and its sail, or even just simple bold shapes. Lansdale artist and Wondering Time owner Camille will walk you through the process from practice block to finished creation, and you’ll leave with your own awesome hand-carved stamp and a set of colorful handmade prints.&nbsp; Beginner Friendly, all materials provided!

Compassionate Therapy for Anxiety, Trauma, Depression, and Life’s Challenges A supportive space to heal, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence. Solace Counseling offers compassionate, evidence-based therapy for adults navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, and life’s challenges. I am a licensed clinician and EMDR-certified therapist with over 10 years of clinical experience, providing both in-person and virtual sessions to clients across Pennsylvania. My office is located in Paoli, PA. My work is grounded in whole-body, trauma-informed care that honors the connection between mind, body, and emotional experience. I integrate EMDR and other evidence-based approaches to support meaningful, lasting change—not just symptom relief. Emotional safety, support, and non-judgment are central to my practice, and I strive to create a space where clients feel understood, respected, and at ease. I view therapy as a collaborative process. While I bring clinical training and structure, I believe clients hold deep insight into what they need and value. Together, we work to explore patterns, build emotional regulation skills, and move toward greater clarity, resilience, and growth—always at a pace that feels safe and manageable. Whether you are seeking relief from anxiety, healing from past experiences, or support through a difficult transition, therapy can be a space to reconnect with yourself and move forward with confidence.
