CALENDAR
While reflecting on the importance of the Earth and the
environment on Saturday, take some time to get your
creative juices flowing, too. Unleash Yourself is a day
of creative workshops at Petersen Barn Community
Center. The all-day event includes 12 workshops on
varying topics. The day begins with “Rise & Shine
Workshops” including “Diversity of Dance,” “Bo Yoga”
and “Spiral collage” and only gets more diverse as the
day goes on, from a bike maintenance session with
Clayton Williams of Patchwork Repair to “Authentic
Expression” with Sara Eden — a workshop focused on
“connecting to and expressing our authenticity.” Plaedo
Wellman, one of Unleash Yourself’s organizers, tells
EW in an email, “Classes are conducted in a hands-on,
friendly and encouraging way in a safe and supportive
environment.” And all of the workshops are centered on
growth, expression and self-care, he says. The workshops
are split up into groups of three throughout the day,
separated by “community building activities” to bring
everyone involved together, as well as by a mid-day lunch
break with local vegetarian food made by Toña Aguilar, for
$5 a plate, and live music by Mariah Moon. Although the
event is designed for teenagers and adults, childcare will
be available for families attending.
Unleash Yourself: A Day of Workshops is 10 am to 6 pm
Saturday, April 22, at Petersen Barn Community Center,
870 Berntzen Road. Registration is $5 online at getrec.org
or by calling 541-682-5521. If you need childcare during
the event, call 541-682-6380. — Meerah Powell
