Hanover’s Gallery at the Old Post Office has announced its 2024 exhibit schedule through late summer.

We name our fires now.
For hurricanes and storms-
A list in alphabetic order determines how…

When the starter fired her gun (at least I choose to remember it as a gun), the athletic kids among us bolted toward the distance. A few steps in, I realized I didn't have a chance.

When it comes down to it, Emily Arndt’s philosophy, expressed in the declaration, "I'm a communicator," is the unifying element of her work. Having also professionally created verbal content for local businesses, Arndt understands the importance of research in projects large and small. For clients looking for family photography, she'll take the same in-depth look at the goal of the end product.

"This series of work developed as a response to the world around me. This year, I felt more than ever the need to show the female spirit as a strong force, One which is diverse but united…”

“I want to sing a song into your bones
Until they hum in harmony with the roots of the mountains.
I want to breathe fire into your blood

I want to dance your feet into a frenzy
Of ecstatic revelation…”

June 30th, 1863, changed Hanover from a stop on a well-used route to a Civil War battle site whose outcomes impacted the more famous battle to the west in Gettysburg. Maj. Gen. J.E.B. Stuart, Brig. Gen. Elon Farnsworth, and Brig. Gen. George A. Custer are all military leaders who influenced the day. The delay that the unexpected fighting caused for Stuart is considered by many to be a crucial factor in the outcome of July 1st through the 3rd in Gettysburg. A wide range of events will be held on June 28th and 29th to commemorate Hanover's memorable historical place.

All three books — Jezierski’s, Myers’ and “Almost Forgotten” — tell about the Black experience in York County in three literary forms: biography, autobiography and general history, respectively.”

“It uses concentrated language: less words, more meaning. All words are chosen carefully by the poet so that each word is important… For me, poetry adds definition and clarity to my place in the world, and I can’t imagine life without it.”

“The movie reaches us via a documentary-style approach with visual storytelling, relying extensively on conversations by and with individuals with varying political experiences and beliefs. America's current status is discussed in terms of values & stories rather than political party labels.”

“A young man visits the area of her home during summer vacation, discovering her and the beautiful coast of her home. He is looking for artistic inspiration and enters her world. She finds in him love, companionship, hope, and the desire to reach beyond her self-made limitations.
