Black History Month Humanize My Hoodie Movie Screening

Seasonal Tree Rock Painting at Prairiewoods

<p>At different times in life and even various times within the same year, we may find ourselves in different seasons of the heart. We may be in the rush of promise, hope and possibility present in spring, or withdrawing inward during the challenges of grief, loss or turbulence in winter. In this contemplative and creative workshop at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha), facilitator Andi Lewis will read passages from John O’Donohue’s book <em>Anam Cara</em> to help us discern which season of the heart we are in. Then we will delve into that season and express our emotions through painting on smooth rocks. We will use a paint brush and fine dotting tools to create a beautiful, one-of-a-kind seasonal tree. This is a fun, relaxing process that can be done by anyone, but it may be too contemplative for young children. (If you’d like to bring the whole family, consider coming the next morning to our popular Rock Mandala Painting instead!) This class is aimed at both those who have painted rock mandalas and those who are totally new to rock painting. Please register and pay by Jan. 29. The cost is $13 per person includes rocks and art supplies. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2019-12-19 20:30:00 -0600

Rock Mandala Painting for the Whole Family at Prairiewoods

<p>Spend a few hours creating art with your favorite people! We invite you to bring your family and friends to Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) for a fun, creative project everyone can enjoy! We will spend fun time together as we learn the art of rock painting with mandalas, which are sacred works of art in the form of a circle. Using smooth stones, paints and fine dotting tools, we will make beautiful, detailed mandalas! Facilitator Andi Lewis will guide us in this fun, relaxing process that can be done by anyone, regardless of age. We will have time to paint several rocks and will be encouraged to take one rock home and leave one as a secret gift for a stranger to find. (If you’ve already experienced this popular class, consider coming the evening before for Seasonal Tree Rock Painting instead!) No experience or artistic skill is necessary, but kids 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult. (It is ideal for ages 10 and older.) The cost is $13 per person and includes rocks and all art supplies. Please register and pay by Jan. 29.

Yid Yicious, "Kick-Ass" Klezmer Band

<p>Yid Vicious was formed in 1995 in Madison, Wisconsin, in order to ameliorate the woeful dearth</p><p>of klezmer in America’s otherwise pleasant heartland. Klezmer is Yiddish folk music, music for dancing and celebrating, and Yid Vicious has been spreading its infectious, original blend of freylekh fun throughout the Midwest and beyond for over a decade. Rather than replicate a particular time and place, Yid Vicious celebrates the long-standing tradition of klezmorim and incorporates new musical ideas into an organic and ever-evolving art form. The band’s seven members blend their backgrounds in classical, jazz, and world music to create a klezmer experience that will electrify audiences of all ages and backgrounds. Their musical arsenal consists of clarinets, fiddle, horn, vocals, guitar, accordion, tuba, drums, and sometimes theremin.</p>
