Community Calendar

Drop in to write words of affirmation on beads that will become integrated into artworks featured in the museum’s fall exhibition, Jennifer Ling Datchuk: RIPENING. Materials and refreshments will be provided.

This drop-in class welcomes beginners and all levels and explores the fundamentals of yoga, correct body alignment & breathing techniques. All poses are offered with modifications to suit individual bodies and needs. A blend of Hatha, Vinyasa and yoga therapeutics, mini meditations and energy medicine modalities will be incorporated.

Would you like time set aside to make your own art? Do you need a regular creative ‘fix’? If you respond well to the rhythm of weekly classes, would like to work more with a particular media, or want to get back into regular creative practice, this is the perfect place for you! As fellow artists, art instructors, and ArtFix moderators, Lea Anderson and Ivan Boyd, are here to offer valuable feedback, mentorship, tips and suggestions for whatever you want to work on. The last night of class will be set aside for a supportive group critique. This fun, friendly, unique atmosphere will provide opportunities for networking, discussion, and creative growth. Make time for this important part of your life! Open to all experience levels.

Join Ranger Lily and Instructional Coordinator Rebekha for a guided tour of the permanent exhibition, "Bosque Redondo…A Place of Suffering…A Place of Survival." Participants will also experience a tour outdoors, visiting the site’s flock of Navajo Churro sheep and exploring the exterior grounds at Fort Sumner Historic Site. These tours teach people about the experiences of the Diné (Navajo) and Ndé (Mescalero Apache) who were forced to live at Bosque Redondo Indian Reservation in the 1860s, as well as stories of their resilience and hope through time. The tour is included with general admission of $7/adult and free for children 16 and younger and Native/Tribal Affiliations

Join novelist/lyricist Karen Leslie Mills and memoirist/novelist Carolyn Dawn Flynn for 1.5 hours of pristine writing time. We'll get in about 50 minutes of writing, then have sharing time. This also is your chance to Ask Us Anything about writing and publication.

HOW IT WORKS: We’ll say a quick hello and start the silent writing time (about 50 minutes). If you need prompts, we’ll provide a few in the chat. If not, bring your project and start writing! Are you a songwriter? No worries! Song ideas are everywhere. Use our prompts to generate ideas for a new or hard-to-finish song.

SHARING We believe sharing is an integral part of your writing practice. We’ll make time in the last bit (15 minutes) for sharing. We’ll choose randomly from whomever volunteers in the chat. You’ll have 3 minutes (max) to share something. But, don’t be nervous. This is not about polish, but about your practice!

At the end, we’ll make time for a craft or publishing tips Q & A (15 minutes) and send you off into your real world.

Brought to you by the co-founders of the Stories + Songs Writing Retreat. Last year, we were in Italy. This year, we'll be in Montana/Yellowstone on Sept. 22-26, 2025. www.storiesandsongsretreat.com
