SUMMARY:MovingWriting: Embodied Expressive Writing
DESCRIPTION:In MovingWriting workshops\, we play with movement/dance and words to help us connect with our deep and creative selves in the company of a supportive circle. Giving voice to our own stories and witnessing the stories of others brings healing\, aliveness\, and connection with others. \nNo moving or writing experience necessary! \nHere’s what a few recent MovingWriting participants had to say about their experience: \n“Loretta’s well-crafted writing prompts sparked a writer inside me that I didn’t know I had… I left feeling invigorated\, accomplished and proud of myself for trying something new.” \n“I’m neither a writer nor a dancer\, but Loretta made it easy to put aside my inhibitions and let my emotional body lead the way… I recommend this class for anybody at all!” \n“It felt delicious to dive into my creative moving and language self with others. For days after\, I felt both emptied and filled up creatively in ways that I hadn’t felt in a long time.” \n“I felt refreshed\, renewed\, and like I had processed some emotional blockages… The paths were opened and the words just flowed.” \nCome move and write with us!

SUMMARY:Andrew Duhon
DESCRIPTION:ANDREW DUHON: \nIt was Leo Tolstoy who said “All great literature is one of two stories; a man goes on a\njourney or a stranger comes to town\,” and in the case of Andrew Duhon and his latest album\nEmerald Blue\, both instances are true. Duhon temporarily left New Orleans\,his longtime\nhome and musical muse in 2019\, finding himself inspired by the landscape of the Pacific\nNorthwest and notably\, its colors\n—  a hue he describes as ‘emerald blue’ for which the album is named\, the same shade looking back at him in his partner’s eyes. Had he overlooked the specific shade of her eyes while living below sea level? Or did the change of location open his mind more acutely? The record does just that: examine the familiar in the context of theunfamiliar.  Emerald Blue is a probing appreciation of the dailiness of life; a note-takingexercise in living.Duhon channeled his new perspective into an eleven song collection\, calling on friends and\ncollaborators includingJano Rix\non drums\, percussion\, and harmonies;\nMyles Weeksonupright andelectric basses and harmonies; andDan Walkeron keys and accordion.Duhon returned South for the recording process\, finding comfort and creativity in Maurice\,Louisiana’s storied\nDockside Studioswith GRAMMYaward winning engineer andlongtime collaborat\nor of Andrew’s\,Trina Shoemaker\, to capture every inch of vibe andbeauty and texture each song had to offer. \n+ SUPPORT TBA \nDOORS: 8PM \nAGES: 21+ \nNO REFUNDS | ALL SALES FINAL

SUMMARY:Sebastopol Fire Department's Meet Your Neighbors (MYN) Program Class
DESCRIPTION:The MYN Class discusses emergency preparedness actions and emergency response steps that many in the Sebastopol area have been adopting. Although much of the emergency information is common and well publicized nationally and locally\, what the MYN Class really promotes is working together with our neighbors on implementing the information. The neighborhood approach to preparing for and responding to emergencies improves resilience for all involved. The Meet Your Neighbors Program has been evolving for many years now to implement ways for neighbors and neighborhoods to adopt local preparedness methods and patterns that will improve how each of us (and our neighbors and neighborhoods) respond during emergencies.

SUMMARY:Sing\, Paint\, Love
DESCRIPTION:Surrender to the flow of sound through your bodies instrument\, quiet the mind and find your natural state of bliss. Gather with community to sing ourselves alive and send peace within and without. An evening of Indian Note singing practice on presence\, Devotional Chants and sacred english songs with Kiranjot Kaur and Kim Atkinson. Watch Rachel Balunsat as she creates live paintings in the resonant field of the group singing experience. Ceremonial Tea will be served and shared. \nKiranjot Kaur is a Vocalist\, founding member of CopperWimmin\, Kundalini Yoga teacher\, Indian Classical music teacher and a devotee of the Divine Mother. Copper Wimmin were featured on Democracy Now and their song Bleeding Rivers was featured on the Showtime Television series The L Word. In 2006 Kiranjot refocused her career around Indian classical music and spent five years living and studying under the guidance of her beloved teacher Dr. Ustad Narindar Singh in Amritsar\, India. No longer interested in performance where the audience is separate from the performer\, Kiranjot brings together her early experiences of community singing with Sweet Honey in the Rock and Bobby McFerrin with her love of Indian Classical music and the Kirtan tradition. From her travels through India to Chile and back she discovered that her favorite thing in this world is using her voice to inspire everyone to use their voices for quieting the mind\, surrendering to presence and revolutionary self-love. \nKiranjot invites everyone to be transformed by the healing power of their own voice as well as the practice of singing together as ONE. \nKim Atkinson:\nAs a professional percussionist\, Kim has worked with Master musicians and Dancers from the US\, Africa\, the Caribbean and Brazil since 1976. He has performed at such prestigious venues as the San Francisco Ethnic Dance Festival\, Brazilian Grand Carnaval Balls\, Stern Grove Summer Music Festival and Harrah’s Club in Reno\, Nevada. In 2004\, Kim performed and facilitated with Micky Hart’s “Planet Drum” holding the groove for over 4000 drummers. This is now the Guinness World Record for the most people playing the same song.\nCurrently\, Kim teaches young children the wonders of Body Rhythm\, teaches high school students World Percussion music\, accompanies poets and kirtan singers\, leads his own Brazilian style parade group\, does freelance percussion work\, teaches West African Music\, takes people on vision quests to Havasupai AZ\, and is learning to play new instruments\, including acoustic guitar and the most challenging drum in the world : East Indian Tabla. \nRachel Balunsat is a Visionary Abstract artist. She studied Las Bellas Arts at La Universidad de Granada and UCSC. But she fell uninspired as the world got more chaotic. Eventually she became a student of Tibetan Buddhism and after several long retreats\, Rachel finally felt a calling to paint Buddhas and Goddesses from her heart and was re-inspired. She was blessed with the name Dolma\, Tibetan name for Green Tara\, by her Lama. Soon after\, Studying with Visionary painter Amanda Sage sent her into a cathartic soul portrait which unleashed yet another direction following inner guidance. Dolma’s paintings have now become abstract renderings of her inner world expressing itself through color and movement\, spontaneity and playfulness.

SUMMARY:Oil and Cold Wax Techniques
DESCRIPTION:Cold wax medium has become very popular because of it’s ability to extend and add body to oil paint\, it’s ability to speed up drying time\, increase transparency and workability. It also doesn’t require any special set up or ventilation\, and allows you to build up very exciting textural effects and layers.\nThis course is for beginners through intermediate students (though advanced students are welcome too). I am used to running multi-level workshops that serve everyone’s needs and goals.\nSpecifically this workshop will cover:\nCWM/Oil how to’s: proportions\, solvents\, mediums\, surfaces to use\, Tools and how to use them effectively: Brayers\, silicone tools\, brushes\, palette knives\nTechniques covered: Foundational layers for optimal results\, Techniques and decision making through the rest of your layers: Texture imprints\, Using RF pigment sticks\, Dry pigment and how to use it safely\, Adding collage\, Dry mark making and mark making in general\, Glazing and veils of color\, Composition guidelines to help you when you get stuck\, Color theory and color mixing to take some of the guess work out of what to choose next\nWhat you’ll come away with:\nConfidence in how to best work with the medium\, An understanding of the process of working in CWM/Oil from start to finish\, A stronger understanding of composition and color\, An ability to avoid common pitfalls like muddy color\, overly opaque surfaces\, How to reference a photo and how to work with no source image\nAndrea’s Workshop Philosophy\nEven though working intuitively is a blast\, it comes with it’s challenges. My aim is to help you keep your intuition alive and well\, while also giving you the tools and technique to be able to step back from what you’re creating and make informed decisions.\nBeyond the pure technical aspects of CWM/oil\, having a few composition tools up your sleeve will give you the ability to answer the questions I hear so often from students: Where do I go from here? Something is off with this painting\, but what is it? Is this painting finished? What color should I choose for the next layer?\nThink how great it will feel to have so much confidence in your own process that you can stand back at any moment and know what your painting needs and why.\nI help you see when it’s time to PLAY and when and how to stand back to move forward. The combination of intuition\, play and\, technical understanding and analysis is what helps you build up consistent skill.\nAbout the Instructor: Andrea Wedell has been painting and exhibiting her work for thirty years in the US and Europe.
