This January 26th, we hold our second Afternoon of the Arts! The afternoon will feature the work of two local visual artists, Heidi Lee and @Juantopia (Juan G. Santos), and have performance art during our open mic. Our theme for the afternoon is Winter’s Light.

We hope to see you there!

Winter officially begins on the shortest day of the year: the Winter Solstice. This also means that on this same day, the cold, bare, harsh environment of the Winter season begins the journey towards… its end. Each and every day thereafter promises more sunlight and eventually—eventually—more warmth, warmth that bears new life.

May this January 26th gathering invite us to both confront cold, frost-bitten circumstances laid bare and claim the hope we have of warmer days and renewed life to come, one season away, figuratively and literally.
