| Nov 4 Sherman Alexie, author |
| One of "The New Yorker's" 20 top writers for the 21st century, author, poet, and screenwriter Sherman Alexie grew up on the Spokane Indian Reservation in Washington, but it wasn't until a college professor recognized his "intensity of language, passion, and energy" that he fully committed to writing. Shortly after, his first books of poetry were published, and he began developing into a gifted orator, telling tales of contemporary American Indian life with razor sharp humor, unsettling candor, and biting wit. His novels, such as "Reservation Blues," "Indian Killer," and "The Toughest Indian in the World," have won numerous awards and accolades. The National Book Award-winning "The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian" was named "Time's" best Young Adult Book of all time. In 1998, Alexie wrote and produced the film "Smoke Signals," an adaptation of his book "The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven." The movie went on to win the Audience Award and Filmmakers Trophy at the Sundance Film Festival. He was recently awarded a 2014 Literature Award by the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Alexie is the guest editor of 2015's Best American Poetry. Presented in partnership with the Department of English Visiting Writer Series. |

| Nov 9 Sankai Juku: UMUSUNA (Memories Before History) |
| Over the course of the past 35 years, the work of Ushio Amagatsu for his company Sankai Juku has become known worldwide for its elegance, refinement, technical precision, and emotional depth. His contemporary Butoh (a form of Japanese dance theatre developed mid-20th century) creations are sublime visual spectacles and deeply moving theatrical experiences. As one of the premier choreographers at work in the world today, the arrival of a work by Ushio Amagatsu is a much-anticipated event. Sankai Juku returns to North America in the fall of 2015 with their latest creation "Umusuna: Memories Before History" (2013). This exquisite new work evokes the essence of duality and unity encapsulated in the Chinese characters for "birth" and "earth" that combine to form the work's title, creating a beautiful landscape that unfolds before our eyes. This program was made possible in part by the New England Foundation for the Arts' National Dance Project, with lead funding from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, with additional support from the National Endowment for the Arts. |

| Nov 17 Julia Wolfe - SITI Company: "Steel Hammer" |
| "Steel Hammer" is a musical theatre journey inspired by Julia Wolfe's love for the legends and music of Appalachia and Anne Bogart's boundless fascination with the human impulse to tell stories. This blockbuster collaboration combines the music and oral traditions of the region, with text from four remarkable African-American playwrights, the lyrics culled from more than 200 versions of the John Henry ballad. Based on hearsay, recollection, and tall tales, "Steel Hammer" explores the subject of human vs. machine and the cost of hard labor on body and soul. Music merges with the spoken word, woven together by movement, dance, and percussion. The Bang on a Can All-Stars and SITI Company take on wooden bones, mountain dulcimer, step dancing, and more to evoke the rich instrumental colors of Appalachia in this quintessential American legend. Wolfe was awarded the 2015 Pulitzer Prize in Music for her oratorio, "Anthracite Fields." |

| Nov 28 Chamber Go Shopping Montgomery | Shop Small Business Saturday |
Our community is comprised of small business owners from Blacksburg, Christiansburg, Riner, Shawsville and our members outside of the Montgomery County lines.
These business owners work hard each day to provide products and services to members of our community. In addition they create jobs, pay taxes, and support many of our local non-profits.
For this reason, the Chamber has designed a GO Shopping | Shop Small Business Saturday initiative in July and November.
Each participating business will be giving shopper tickets to the first 50 costumers. Those tickets will be placed into a drawing for a $100 gift card from the Chamber.
Dates: November 28, 2015 (day after black Friday)
Time: Business Hours for the business participant
Where: Check Chamber Facebook Page often for updates to the participating business list. This will be a "live" list and change frequently.
