State College, PA Events: Community Calendar

Still Here explores stories of migration, displacement, and survival by eight artists that represent a spectrum of the African Diaspora. The works in this exhibition use moving images to highlight the rituals and traditions that persevere and evolve, despite the oppressive historical ripple effects of colonialism and the Transatlantic Slave Trade. Through practices and tools of survival such as migrating, defending, dancing, gathering, praying, and claiming agency over one’s body, the works in this exhibition demonstrate that black and brown bodies are not here for consumption of the white gaze, nor are they passive beings upon whom actions are done or inflicted. Artists include Larry Achiampong, Adama Delphine Fawundu, Third Horizon (Jason Fitzroy Jeffers), Carlos Javier Ortiz, Cinthia Marcelle, Melo-X, Helina Metaferia, and Joiri Minaya. Curated by Larry Ossei-Mensah, Dexter Wimberly and Kiara Ventura, Still Here was originally organized at the Museum of the African Diaspora, San Francisco.

A mat-based formatted class designed for people who like to sweat & burn calories! Inspired by Yoga and Pilates using focus, flow, and fusion-style movements, as it incorporates dynamic balance, strength, flexibility, and functional training in a rhythmic style. Suitable for all levels!

Stay up to date on our most recent class schedule, via our website: http://www.wellnessinmotionstudio.com/classes-and-events/class-calendar/

This class offers a sequence of poses that focus on connecting movement to breath. This practice cultivates mindfulness and non-judgmental awareness of body alignment, sensations, and energy flow. Movement (through asanas) and rest (through guided meditation in savasana) are both incorporated to encourage centering in the physical body through attentiveness to the breath to quiet the mind. Some previous yoga experience is helpful, but not required.

If you've ever wanted to delve into your family history, register for this class.
Robbin Degeratu, the Administrative Director of Centre County Library and Historical Museum, will instruct on how to use the library’s genealogy resources, discover essential research methods and strategies, identify relevant records and how to locate them, and organize your family research information. Registration is required.

This workshop inspires wellness through integrating movement, body awareness and the Arts. Through these experiences, we learn to cultivate and trust our own internal body-mind system as well as non- verbally communicate and/or connect to our thoughts and feelings. This inspires growth and change physically, mentally and spiritually. Combining hands-on creativity, artistic expression and movement enables participants to destress while also having fun in a safe environment. Whether practicing for health, stress management or simply for the sheer pleasure of it, participants gain a sense of inner calm and stronger body awareness.

No artistic or yoga experience necessary – come as you are in comfortable clothing you can move, stretch and dance in!

Cost: $45

This class is a fusion of vinyasa flows and longer holds of yin yoga. The vinyasa portion will connect breath with movement through asanas, while the yin portion of class will give you a deep stretch to target deep connective tissue. A great combination to fuel your body, mind, and soul. This class is suitable for all levels of experience, with modifications provided.

Impress and Shock your special loved one with a Singing Valentine on 2/13 or 2/14.

Kick off your Valentine's Day Celebration with a few laughs and a few tunes crooned in the A Capella Barbershop Style by your own personal Barbershop Quartet from the Nittany Knights Mens A Capella Chorus.
Truly an experience she/he will cherish forever.

The cost is only $30 for the standard Singing Valentine or $45 for the Deluxe version to include a personal box of chocolates and a memorable picture posed with your very own Quartet.

"Boho Dancers -These figures are generally thought to be the Boho Dancers of the Proto-rococo-loco

period. The Dance is held at the change of each season to help maintain the community

equilibrium in vulnerable times."

Artist Manya Goldstein uses recycled materials to construct modern artifacts and "bubbe meises". Her art "offers a wry yet tender insight into the condition of being human". Goldstein combines her quirky sense of humor and surreal sensibility with a refined sense of design and color.

Hello hello, Dennis Alan here and I am starting this Meetup to talk everything homesteading, self sufficiency other ways to improve our lives. I moved out here from the NYC area to build an off grid homestead on my 28 acres in Woodward, PA. I have studied permaculture for years and had a pretty cool little urban homestead in Jersey City, NJ. Let's all share knowledge, time and energy with other like-minded folks and start changing our lives for the better.
