While you can listen in on any GMRS radio on channel 22\, you must have a radio that can accept programming of send/receive offsets and tones (CH 22R (462.725MHz +5MHz offset  186.2Hz Tone).  Please contact Jay Guettler @ westlaneecn@gmail.com for more information or just join us on the radio at the listed time and date.

SUMMARY:Process Paint and Sip
DESCRIPTION:INCLUDES: Hosted bar featuring locally crafted wine\, beers and ciders; light refreshments\, coffee/tea/water\, and all materials and instruction. Please remember to bring your ID card to be served alcohol.  \nThink back to your childhood\, and the excitement of painting and drawing as a way of learning how to use materials\, and discovering all the things you could do with them. Wouldn’t it feel great to have that freedom and enjoyment back again? You can\, with our Process Paint and Sip night!  \n“Process  painting” and its cousin\, Intuitive Painting\, use a style of expressive art that focuses on the experience of using color\, form\, composition\, and the properties of  paint and mixed media to build layers on a surface\, without having a pre-exising idea or attachment to what the end product looks like. We create using a few basic principles that leave room for the spontaneous and the playful to emerge.  \n Focusing on process\,  rather than the finished piece\, frees us up to explore and  experiment\, learn and practice the principles of visual art media\, and build our own repetoire of creative skills and approaches – all without being afraid of making a mistake\, or comparing  ourselves to others. Many folks also find this method of painting helps them feel more comfortable and relaxed in the present moment\, not to mention energized and delighted!  \nDuring the evening\, we will: \n~ Gather  for social time & enjoy your choice of beverages \n~ Learn how process- focused painting works\, and do some basic warm-up exercises\, \n~ Enjoy music and free painting time\, with guidance from an experienced fine artist\, \n~ Learn how to talk about our creative experiences\, what we  learned\, and what we appreciate about one another’s work in a way that’s supportive and encouraging.  \nParticipants will go home with one or more finished pieces\, and the knowledge of how to continue a process/intuitive painting practice on their own. We also encourage you to register ahead for future Paint & Sip sessions\, so you can continue to get support in developing your creative process.

SUMMARY:The City of Florence EMAC Speaker Spotlight Series
DESCRIPTION:Come and learn about how you can help save the insects with David Kollen from the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation!\n“Insect Apocalypse: “Insect Apocalypse?: What is really happening\, why it matters\, and how you can be part of the solution” summary: \nIntroduction to the Xerces Society\nThe Importance of Invertebrates\nThe Evidence of Invertebrate Decline\nThreats to Invertebrates\nNature-based Climate Solutions \n“Insect Apocalypse” starts with an overview of invertebrates including their diversity and biomass\, and goes on to describe how this enables their tremendous contribution to our food webs. Other ecosystem services such as decomposition and pollination are also covered. The talk then goes on to look at various studies and data trends that provide evidence of invertebrate declines.\nWith invertebrate declines setting the stage\, the topic progresses to the many threats thought to underpin these declines. Finally\, we will look at nature-based climate solutions. These are solutions that support invertebrate biodiversity and at the same time serve to mitigate some of the harmful impacts of climate change. \nDave Kollen is a Xerces Society Ambassador and in that role is involved in educational and outreach work. In addition\, he is an OSU Extension certified Master Melittoligist\, Bee Steward\, and Oregon Naturalist. His involvement in community science includes the Pacific Northwest Bumble Bee Atlas\, the California Bumble Bee Atlas\, and the Oregon Bee Atlas. Dave also writes pollinator-focused articles for the Oregon State Federation of Garden Clubs newsletter\, Mahonia.
