  I would like to display a post category (Upcoming Events) on a static page that is NOT the homepage. Basically I want a small image and two short paragraphs to appear at the top of the page with posts following.

  Alternatively, what would also work is a post page (Upcoming Events) with some static content at the top (small image and text).

  Is this possible? Thanks in advance.

  You failed to provide the URL of the site in question so no one can help you with it as we do not know where it is hosted.

  This is WordPress.COM support. We do not provide support for local installs of WordPress.ORG software, or for WordPress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, linked to WordPress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites WordPress.com account page. However, about 30% of those who post here every day are posting to the wrong support forum.

  Please type the actual URL of the site you are referring to into http://whoishostingthis.com to determine who hosts the site so you know where to post for support.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  wordpress.org support
  The wordpress.ORG support forum is at http://wordpress.org/support. The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/ If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/
  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
  See also https://apps.wordpress.org/support/ for app support.

  Jetpack support
  Some Jetpack solutions are here http://jetpack.com/support/
  Others are in the Jetpack support forum at WordPress.org
  http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack
  However, if help cannot be found at either one then they can file a Jetpack support ticket here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/?jetpack=needs-service

  I apologize for posting incorrectly or in the wrong forum. I will look elsewhere.
