Artist Factory First Friday: Collage with Andrew Shaw

Join local artist Andrew Shaw for a collage workshop exploring “single-page re-compositions.” In this process, participants will start with a single magazine page, tear the image into smaller pieces, and rearrange them to create a completely new composition. No cutting tools are needed. Instead, we’ll focus on tearing, layering, and gluing the pieces onto a new design, transforming the original image into a unique work of art. This FREE workshop is open to the public, with a $20 suggested donation. All ages are welcome, and the workshop is family friendly. You’re invited to drop in anytime between 6–9 PM, and you don’t need to stay the entire time. All materials are provided, and parking will be validated at OCA.

The Rumi Poetry Club and Golden Braid Books presents: Spring with Rumi

Join us the first Tuesday of every month this fall for a mystical series of evenings celebrating Sufi Poetry. The Rumi Poetry Club was founded by Rasoul Shams in 2007, on the occasion of the 800th anniversary of Jalâluddin Rumi’s birth. Since then, they have celebrated the poetry, inspiration, and perennial teachings of Rumi and other poets of the heart, nature, and spiritual life from around the world. Rasoul Shams first learned of Rumi's poems in his Persian classes as a young boy in Iran. The works of Rumi and other Persian poets have been his spiritual companions for decades. He has studied and lived in India, Japan, and the USA. His books include Rumi: The Art of Loving, Rumi Essays: On the Life, Poetry, and Vision of the Greatest Persian Sufi Poet, The Words of Rumi, and Through Love Pain is Healed.
