Music Series - Soul Mongers - Mount Vernon Creates
<p>Music that’s comfort food for the soul.</p><p>Soul Mongers have been around a while, in various incarnations. Borne out of many musical projects and lots of years, this band is the culmination of a whole lot of listening to blues, jazz, pop and rock influences, and then tackling the songs from a more intimate slant. Under the skillful guidance of musical director and lead singer Emily Beeks, Soul Mongers pulls their favorites into the fold: artists as diverse as Nat King Cole, Sippy Wallace, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Melanie, The Traveling Wilburys,Chris Isaak, Cream, and many others are represented. Dale Beeks on guitars and Pete Raine on bass back a soul-stirring vocal by Em, as they’ve done together for 20 years. You’re gonna like what you hear, and head home after a show ready to dig out the old ghosts of music past and give them a listen once more.</p> 2019-03-09 22:00:00 -0600

Art Exhibit: True Maps
<p>Gilded Pear Gallery is pleased to present <em>True Maps</em>, a solo exhibit of new works by Thérèse Murdza.</p><p>A writer turned visual artist, Thérèse Murdza began drawing big words on giant rolls of paper in 1998. Using an animated range of circles, lines, and colors, she continued her work onto stretched canvas, eventually building her signature bright, richly textured paintings. Her previous training remains an influence: “In college, I studied theater performance, learning new forms of materializing sounds in transitory space. I acted, directed, and wrote poetry and plays. After graduation I distilled my writing further, in search of the precise moments of emotion and of contact. Not narrating the beginnings and ends, but middles; the being in the middle of things. Years spent living up and down the east coast had me literally taking the words apart. Disintegrating the shapes of the words into lines, circles, squares and color. Seeing music, hearing words, somehow marking sound in charcoal, ink, pencil, and then: paint.”</p><p>Thérèse has a BS in Theatre Arts from Towson University, MD. She studied Life Drawing at the Durham Arts Council School; Botanical Drawing at the ArtSchool at The ArtsCenter, NC; and Mural Painting with Larry Kangas in Portland, OR. She lives and works in Portland, Oregon and has exhibited in solo and group shows nationally. Her work can be found in many residential, commercial, and museum collections, including: Kaiser Permanente Beaverton Medical Office. Portland, OR; Bluebird Real Estate. Portland, OR; Oregon Reproductive Medicine Clinic. Portland, OR; United Fire Group. Los Angeles, CA; Cedar Rapids Museum of Art. Cedar Rapids, IA; Raven Industries.

JUST CHURCH
<p><strong>About JustChurch</strong></p><p>JustChurch is a weekly, Saturday evening, downtown worshiping community in the Iowa City/Cedar Rapids corridor. JustChurch is “just” in two ways:</p><ul><li><br><ul><li>Just a worshipping community</li><li>Participates in acts of JUSTice that flow from worship</li></ul></li></ul><p>JustChurch is intentionally focused on worship steeped in ancient Christian tradition expressed in new, simple ways, without building ownership, standing committees, etc. JustChurch is a refuge to those who seek to express faith for good in a community of inclusion and who feel left out of current institutional religion. Since JustChurch wants money to do the most good it can do, it strives to be an 80/20 worshipping community (dedicating 80% of its income for maximal impact on justice while using 20% to cover intentionally low operating costs).</p> 2019-04-20 18:00:00 -0500
