SUMMARY:Book of Masks
DESCRIPTION:Featured Artists\nSusan Guerrero\nAnn Chaikin\nNancy Thomson\nLori Hill\nTrish Harding\nThe first year of the Covid pandemic brought with it so many uncertainties\, fears\, bizarre happenings\, and a precious few unforseeable bright spots. THE BOOK OF MASKS show is comprised of 5 journals which are the result of our weekly zoom class. Each page follows a current event theme inspired by noted artists and prompts given. The books are a rare intimate peek into the cloistered lives of these very accomplished artists who were spurred onward with new vision not because of the pandemic but in spite of it!\nThere will be other incredible zoom work as well.\nStudio UFO will open its door early at 5 for those Art Walk early birds.\ncontact Trish.harding@studio-ufo.net\nwww.studio-ufo.net

SUMMARY:Conversation & Reading with Author Kevin Donner
DESCRIPTION:Working in senior care isn’t for everyone. It isn’t even for most. But for those rare few who find their passion in this multifaceted industry\, the sense of job and life satisfaction are limitless. So too\, however\, can be the pervasive sense of loss and hopelessness. \nPoopy Fingers: One Person’s Account of Working in the Delightfully Strange World of Assisted Living follows the lessons\, the mistakes\, the smiles\, and the tears as Kevin Donner stumbles upon his own passion for working with\, and for\, this often undervalued and ignored demographic. \nThis book shows the daily physical and emotional needs of the residents\, but more importantly\, explores the varying stages of life familiar to so many of us. Come join us for a conversation intended to help start your own conversations with loved ones concerning issues around aging.
