Video and the Human Experience – Amy
Conger
Too much of
multi-media art becomes an isolated experience of watching a screen — an
experience as unsatisfying as watching TV. In this class students will engage
in a relational approach to video art as a way of connecting to and
experiencing our own humanity. What surprises and delights may be ours when we
find media art bringing us together, rather than isolating us from one another?
For beginning and Intermediate levels. Amy is an artist, teacher and
changeworker whose sole aim in life is to talk with you.

Poetry and Healing – John Fox
Poetic language that
comes from the heart, has the potential to circulate everywhere. Whether it
occurs one-to-one or in a group, poetry provides a way to explore numbness or
feeling in a sensitive and creative response to life as it unfolds. In this
class you will learn and apply principles of poetry and healing by writing and
sharing original poems. No previous experience with poetry is required. John
Fox is a poet and certified poetry therapist. He is author of Poetic Medicine: The Healing Art of Poem-making
and Finding What You Didn't Lose:
Expressing Your Truth and Creativity Through Poem-Making. For more
