Join artist Kate Gilbert in a participatory workshop infusing tools of meditation with media imagery to create an accumulative work of art or artifact that represents a personal, balanced response to violent imagery. This workshop, the first in a three-part series will begin with guided meditation focused on finding ones inner voice. Once centered, participants will incorporate photojournalistic imagery to create a small 3D artifact, representative of the political or social concern of their choice. Participants will leave their artifact for the next workshop participants to use and are encouraged to attend each workshop to deepen their practice of defining self and activism in a media-saturated world.<br>
<br>
This workshop series will lead participants through the acceptance of violent imagery in media as a necessary catalyst for change, defining one’s response to violence and will culminate in a civically-engaged creative action. Participants are encouraged to attend each consecutive workshop to deepen their practice of defining self and activism in a media-saturated world.<br>
<br>
All programs are free and open to the general public. Lunch will be served. </span><span style="font-family:georgia,times,times new roman,serif">RSVP here to register for <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/media-response-self-awareness-and-activism-through-art-making-part-1-making-a-statement-tickets-35433061240" target="_blank" style="color:#2baadf;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline">Part 1</a> (Aug 18) and <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/media-response-self-awareness-and-activism-through-art-making-part-2-building-an-understanding-tickets-35433206675" target="_blank" style="color:#2baadf;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline">Part 2</a> (Sept 15).</span></div>

At its premiere, Finlandia was heard to symbolize Finnish independence. It is now considered a second Finnish national anthem. Dvořák urged American composers to borrow from the spirituals, much as he had employed Czech folk songs in his own writing. Márquez’s Danzón No. 2 has become one of the most popular of all orchestral dances. The young musicians of ZUMiX are featured in a Landmarks-commissioned work they have created with composer Gonzalo Grau.<br>

All concerts are free to the public.<br>
<em>Rain date: August 10 at Hatch Shell. If it is raining on the 10th, the concert will be moved indoors to Kresge Auditorium at MIT.</em></span></div>
