Reflections on Photography with Chris Beebe
With over 5 billion photos taken daily worldwide, photography has become a fundamental artistic medium to many. This session will provide context to reflect on what photography means in our own lives, basic camera mechanics, a brief overview of notable photographers, and local
photography resources. As time allows, we will also open the session up to discuss photographic avenues attendees may be interested in exploring themselves, or to answer any questions folks may have about their own photography equipment.
Simple Bookmaking from the Recycling Bin with Amber Paris
Learn how to make a simple but effective book using items from the recycling bin. Art supplies will be provided to decorate your cover and create content for your book too! It is OK for younger kids to attend this activity without a caregiver.
Tai Chi with Leah Gessner
Tai chi is an exercise system combining disciplined, graceful movements with an invigorating sense of the body and surrounding space. In this workshop we will perform qigong exercises to get our chi (internal energy) flowing, as well as hand massage techniques to promote organ
health. Qigong is a system of coordinated slow flowing body-postures and movements practiced in a calm meditative state of mind. Although the movements are slow, they contain great power.
5pm
Darn It! (In memory of Mimi Morton) with Nancy Detra
We will learn to darn or perfect and be creative with our mending skills, and get to know each other. Needles and yarn will be supplied, but bring your own holey socks or sweaters, and yarn if you want a good match. Or you can just get creative!!
