FIFTH ANNUAL ILENE GARLOCK LUNCH AND LEARN 
 ***STORIES FROM A WHITE HOUSE BUTLER*** 
Have you ever imagined what it would be like to attend a presidential 
function at the White House? How about a State Dinner? Have you 
ever wondered what the Family Quarters of the White House look 
like? Former White House butler, Alan DeValerio, will tell you all about 
it! He'll give you the inside details about all the preparations involved 
in White House entertaining, and how it has evolved over the years 
from FDR to the present. Not only will he relate his firsthand 
experiences with history, but he'll pass on the stories he heard from 
those who have been taking care of our First Families ever since the 
Franklin Roosevelt administration! And then, lunch will be served!

CONFRONTING PROPAGANDA: YOUR MESSAGE MATTERS 
In a society where information is more available than ever, it is important for people to make accurate 
judgements of the information presented to them. Propagandistic messages influence our attitudes, beliefs 
and behavior every day. Often propaganda carries a negative connotation to spread biased or misleading 
information to influence people, but it can also be used effectively to relay positive messages. Art becomes 
propaganda when the spread of the message becomes the goal, and the work becomes a tool to achieve 
that goal. Arlene Smelson, certified art instructor and professional artist, will address some of the 
propaganda techniques - how to distinguish between harmful and beneficial propaganda and how to use 
propaganda to activate critical thinking. Spouses and significant others are welcome.
