Friendships, Mirrors: Movement Lab 2.0Community Event · Fri, Oct 9Friendships, Mirrors: Movement Lab 2.0 is a series of 10 movement classesfor adults (18+), a space to explore how your body thinks, listens, reacts, and creates.This isn't about mirroring exercises or imitating your partner. We'll look for deeper ways of knowing another person through movement: noticing small details, paying attention to how others exist in space, and practicing together as a group. In the second part of the lab, we turn the attention back to ourselves, using these encounters as material for a subtle dance self-portrait. There's more you'll discover once you're in the room.No previous dance experience required. Whether you're joining Movement Lab for the first time or you were with us for Lab 1, this one starts fresh for everyone.

Create A Coping AltarWorkshop Event · Sat, Oct 10FREE, please register, ages 18+ no art experience requiredMake a Coping Altar is a reflective, hands-on workshop about creating a small personal structure for attention, grounding, and meaning. Through an introduction to the ideas behind Strange Companions, artist Bramble Lee Pryde will explore how people use objects, rituals, and symbolic arrangements to live alongside uncertainty. Participants will then be guided through a private exercise to consider what they want their altar to hold, acknowledge, remember, or make space for. After an introduction to the materials and possible approaches, participants will create a small altar using objects, images, textures, words, and constructed elements. The altar is not intended as a cure or solution, but as a personal site of recognition: a place to return to, pause, or hold what cannot be neatly resolved. Participants will leave with a completed altar and a practical framework for using symbolic objects and small rituals in their own lives.
Art Exhibition: "In Motion — The Art of Intentional Camera Movement"Exhibition · Sat, Oct 10In Motion — The Art of Intentional Camera Movement By David Richardson / ICM Photo MagicThis exhibition invites you to discover a different perspective and experience the beauty in the ordinary through David’s lens. His intentional camera movement transforms familiar scenes into one-of-a-kind works of art, offering expressive interpretations of movement and place through the combination of colour, light, and motion.After more than 40 years as a photography enthusiast, David discovered Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) about 18 months ago through the Photo Mentor Monthly Photography School. The connection was immediate, inspiring him to explore ICM as a serious art form.Since then, he has created more than 20,000 ICM images, experimenting almost daily with movement, light, colour, texture, and timing. What began as experimentation has evolved into a thoughtful and intentional creative process.
