Art in the Hall: Love from the Deep, A SeaMonster Art Opening with Cultural Educator and Indigenous Storyteller Pamela SeaMonster
What a wonderful, fun and successful Art Opening event last Saturday with Pamela SeaMonster!
We had 80-some people come along and enjoy a day of art showing and storytelling, learning about Pamela's art and about Pamela herself. The afternoon included a free raffle and Pamela gave away a very generous 5 pieces of art. Everyone enjoyed the drinks, including cedar cider, (thank you Pamela), soup and salad, nibbles and sweet treats for Valentine's Day.

Dana Lyons - Concert in the Hall
Saturday's concert in Thomas Berry Hall was the kickoff to Dana's These Songs of Freedom tour. We feel so lucky, and so grateful, to have hosted Dana here for his first concert tour! What a beautiful, fun, uplifting and important afternoon of songs, music and of course, incredible storytelling from Dana, an environmental and political activist, and committed social justice musical warrior.
