The Write Path to Mindset
<p>Quick writing practices to bring more joy, satisfaction and peace to your life. </p><p><strong>This workshop is open to the public. Due to space constraints, </strong><a href="https://www.tanagerplace.org/event/the-write-path-to-mindset/"><strong>registration is required</strong></a><strong>. </strong></p><p>Mindset is a powerful tool in supporting stress, anxiety, depression, low confidence, PTSD, anger, ADHD and so much more. </p><p>Here’s the most impactful piece, by managing your own mindset, you positively impact everyone who comes in contact with you as you mirror and model neurons. (But we will get into that in the workshop!)</p><p>Writing means being intentional with your thoughts. Rarely can one write something without giving deeper or more attentive thought to it. When writing for mindset becomes a regular practice, you can actually physically change your thought patterns through the neuroplasticity of the brain. How cool is that?</p><p>Are you a caregiver looking to improve your stress levels and mindset? Tired of feeling like you don’t have the tools for lasting change? Exhausted and see how it negatively impacts everyone who relies on your support? In need of self-care? This is is the workshop for you.</p><p>Participants receive an understanding of mindset and creating lasting and positive change, information about several writing techniques and instruction on how to do them on your own. There will be time to write within the workshop, and a farewell gift bag from the folks at Tanager Place and Leah at the Abundant Parent.</p><p><br></p> 2019-11-08 19:00:00 -0600

Haunted: Marvin Cone’s Ghosts
<p>In the academic year of 1938-1939, Marvin Cone took a leave of absence from teaching at Coe College and secured a studio in the Granby Building in downtown Cedar Rapids. Funded by local businessmen, Cone received an uninterrupted “year of freedom,” as he termed it, to devote to his painting. In this newfound freedom, Cone departed from his beloved depiction of barns and the Iowa landscape and turned inward, literally. He began to focus on eerie, atmospheric building interiors, painted almost in monotone. Some of these interiors began to include images of ghosts, their bodies transparent but distinct against the background. Although common enough in children’s book illustration, Cone’s ghosts are highly unusual in “fine” art. Of these paintings, Cone said that he wanted to establish, “a lonesome and apprehensive atmosphere.” In addition to ghosts, Cone also experimented with adding gloomy portraits of “Uncle Ben” to the austere walls of his interior, or simply ominous titles that alluded to the room having just been vacated by an unknown presence.</p><p><br></p><p>After initially broaching the subject in the late 1930s, Cone returned to it several times, which was unusual for him. These interior spaces and their otherworldly inhabitants called him back through the 1950s and into the mid-1960s, near the end of his life. <em>Haunted: Marvin Cone’s Ghosts</em> is a celebration of this intriguing theme and its unusual and enigmatic presence in Cone’s artwork.</p> 2019-11-21 20:00:00 -0600
