SUMMARY:Making Natural Color from Highly Vigorous Plants
DESCRIPTION:Join natural dyer & gardener Katie Spencer to learn how to safely process barberry\, buckthorn\, and lady’s bedstraw into dyes for wool\, silk\, cotton\, and linen. Participants will leave with a “reference sheet” of the different dyes on cotton & linen samples to use for future projects. (If you would also like to see how each performs on wool\, send an email to k.rose.spencer@gmail.com before class.) We will also have a chance to experiment with naturally extracted pigments on paper — sap green paint\, for example\, comes from buckthorn berries. While this class is focused on a particular set of plants\, it is a great way to learn about natural dyeing in general for those who are new to the craft.  \nMore about the instructor: Katie Spencer has been making art her entire life\, one of the many benefits of being the daughter of an art teacher. In 2020\, she started making dyes from plants\, when her next-door neighbor  taught her that loquat leaves make the color pink. Born and raised in Strafford\, Katie works as a private gardener during the growing months and an artist all year round. She lives in Chelsea with her partner\, dog\, sheep\, and chickens. You can see her latest work at www.ktrose.co.  \nPlease indicate how many tickets you want to enable the Get Tickets button.

SUMMARY:Mantra and Music for Soulful Elevation
DESCRIPTION:Pure Kirtan has been performing their unique\, energetic\, and blissful style of Kirtan throughout New England since 2011.\n \nKirtan works with sound vibration and is usually sung in Sanskrit\, the ancient language of India.\nEveryone is encouraged to join in during the Kirtan\, making the practice a “co-formance” rather than a “performance” where the audience group becomes an essential part of the energy. During the “co-formance\,” a Kirtan walla\, or chant leader\, will sing out a line\, and the group sings it back. These lines are repeated until they become integrated into the chanter’s consciousness. The chants usually rise in speed\, building momentum and vibrational energy\, then slow down. This combination powerfully affects the nervous system and helps calm the body and mind.\n \nThe group is a trio of spiritual practitioners\, teachers\, and musicians:\nAngie Follensbee-Hall\, born in Catania\, Sicily\, is a yoga instructor\, spiritual teacher\, and fine artist who leads mantra and vocals.\nJoshua Hall\, a classical guitarist\, composer\, and music teacher\, leads on guitar.\nKo Dustin\, a yoga teacher and musician\, masters the rhythm on djembe and percussion.
