Writing Club
Join us for Writing Club on Wednesday October 9 at 6:30pm and Wednesday October 23 at 10am.
This TWICE monthly writing group is a mix of writing, talking about writing connecting over a desire to write more and share our words, and anything else that comes up in the process. Sharing is always optional, and you get to choose what (if any) feedback you get from the group.
Artists Talk: Katy Ferrarone, Allison Rietta & Emily Keating Snyder
Join us for an Artists Talk with Katy Ferrarone, Allison Rietta and Emily Keating Snyder. The Artists will speak about their inspiration, influences, artistic process and more. This will be the final opportunity to see Dreaming In Color.
In Dreaming In Color, these three artists invite viewers into a world where meditation meets canvas. Ferrarone's circular forms and repetitive marks map the landscape of the mind, Keating Snyder's embroidered canvases blend craft and fine art, and Rietta's geometric abstractions explore mystic patterns and sacred sounds. Each artist uses color as a powerful tool to evoke emotion and presence, creating works that resonate on a deeply personal level.
Opening Reception: Thresholds
Join us on Saturday October 19 from 4 to 6pm to see Thresholds and celebrate the featured Artists, Kate Rusek and Monica Shulman.
Please RSVP. All are welcome.

Looking for accountability on your writing project? We're here to support that!
Once monthly we will be dedicating space and time for writing in the Attic. Please join us quietly between 10 and 11; optional sharing and discussions will begin at 11. If you're interested in turning your thoughts into words–but struggle to put pen to paper–these 'butt in seat' accountability sessions are a great way to get started!
