Children & Families
Ages: 3 - 5
Kids will have fun and practice their preschool
skills as they learn, build, and play with LEGO(R) & Duplo bricks.
Each week we will create something different
such as a xylophone, helicopter, dinosaur, a Rocket, & more. We'll talk about our topic, learning some interesting facts about it, and then our junior engineers will follow the teacher as we build. Kids can add on to the model when we're done, interacting with it.
Some weeks we'll make a craft, too. Kids will also learn a related song or poem about our topic, and practice the alphabet letter associated with it. They'll receive a handout with key terms & concepts from the lesson.

Tranquility Yoga is a class designed for all shapes, sizes, and fitness levels. The class focuses on breathing fully, deeply, and in coordination with movements of your limbs. Emphasis will be placed upon postures that aide in reducing stress and anxiety through activating the parasympathetic nervous system. By soothing the nervous system and calming the mind, stress hormone levels will decline allowing a physically stress-free state to be re-established. Give yourself permission to restore, relax and revitalize.

Exhibits
Exploding the possibilities of painting, Ashley’s inflatable sculptures look for a space for paint to live and breath as tattooed skins on hybrid bodies. In this exhibition, kinetic boulders float and lumber throughout the gallery, irreverent and humorous. The works are both absurdist performances and spaces for play, each entangled with curiosities as numerous as expandable foam, aliens, cake frosting, wrinkled skin, and exhalation.
. All are welcome to a free, informal celebration on Sunday, November 10th 4-6 pm. HUB Gallery is ope
In conjunction with the opening of the show, a live performance will take place-12 students will inhabit Ashley’s sculptures and perform her work Hot Rocks, wherein the artist speculates on the future evolution of our species, whether on or off planet.
