A Quiet Return with Yvette Shipman
FREE
Join us for a gentle afternoon of reflection and presence amidst the circle of paintings in Another Light: Making Space for Healing by Jeffrey Dorsey—with yvette shipman, Onika Reigns of Black Dream Escape, and Freesoul.
1:00pm: Spend time experiencing the portraits, writings, and audio of twelve intimate stories, and allow the space to hold you.
1:30 pm: Settle into a guided sit and meditation, softening into stillness, writing, or simply being. The sweet sounds of ease, offered by Freesoul on sound bowls, will accompany us in a quiet celebration of arrival, resilience, and the power of being together.
In a world that often demands our exhaustion, this gathering is a form of resistance. As Cole Arthur Riley reminds us:“Resistance survives in the arms of the collective.” Come, bring your journal for reflections, and join us in sacred pause and shared breath.
Tea will be served—BYOM: Bring Your Own Mug.
This session is open to all. We have twelve cushions and plenty of chairs. RSVP to jeffrey@anotherlight.art.
Closing Celebration: Artist Reflection and Dance Party
FREE | DOORS OPEN AT 6:30

Bring your energy and your best moves, and let’s dance like nobody’s watching.

Email a song (and artist) that makes you want to dance—songs that make you feel connected, joyful, grateful, healthy...songs that got you through uncertain times—to jeffrey@anotherlight.art by Saturday, April 19th and he will add it to the Community Dance Party Playlist.
Then join Jeffrey on the dance floor as we celebrate all of our journeys, together. Life is tough, y'all! So let's dance like nobody's watching.

Rest / Stop: Evening in-person with Jeffrey Dorsey
DOORS OPEN AT 6:30
What does it look like to stop and just rest, together? Rest / Stop is the opposite of a Workshop. To rest and stop is a form of refusal and quiet protest of the machine-like activities we perform all day. There’s nothing to produce, nothing to learn. Exhibit creator and rest practitioner Jeffrey Dorsey will guide us through the most simple of activities—resting. Let’s remember together, all the way back to basics. Think kindergarten rest time for any age. Bring your blanket, pillow, a stuffed buddy. Wear your pj's if you like. This is a come-as-you-are session. Jeffrey will provide a brief introduction with simple guides and soothing music to aid your relaxation.
All are welcome, no experience is necessary. ;-)
