Meet ROBIN GREENFIELD at HEART OF CARTM!!

Submitted By: jessi@heartofcartm.org – Click to email about this post
Robin Greenfield is a truth seeker, activist, social reformer and servant to Earth, humanity and our plant and animal relatives. You may have heard of him from “30 Days of Wearing My Trash” when he walked around LA in a suit made entirely of his own garbage. www.robingreenfield.org/la/
Well, now he is going for a walk. “I’ll spend time and talk with people who I meet along the path and who come to walk with me, practicing compassionate communication with each interaction.” Robin explains as he embarks on a 1700 mile journey down the Pacific Coast Highway.
We are delighted to host Robin and hear a few excerpts from his latest book, Food Freedom. Join us!
Thursday, September 5th, 5:00-8:00pm
at HEART OF CARTM
All attendees can pick up their copy of Food Freedom!

“In 2011 I awakened to the truth that the way I was living was causing incredible destruction to Earth, to my fellow humans and to the plants and animals we share this home with. My philosophy for change is action based. Through personal action, I show that another way is possible. My activism is often designed in extreme ways in order to reach the masses, to show another perspective on life and alternatives to our current status quo.” – Robin Greenfield

You are invited! Taking Shape: Here and There

Submitted By: info@cannonbeacharts.org – Click to email about this post
Join us tomorrow August 16th from 4:30 to 6:30pm for the opening of “Taking Shape: Here and There” featuring work by Pam Greene and Christopher Belluschi.

The exhibition will showcase captivating artworks that explore the concept of form and space in both the familiar and abstract.

Pam Greene, known for her exquisite use of color and light will present a series of paintings that capture the essence of the ocean and the surrounding forest. With an MFA in art and design from Stanford, and an undergraduate degree in botany, she is a perpetual observer of nature’s inspiring forms. As an innovator, Greene approaches each painting as something of an experiment. She likes to be surprised as the composition emerges, and create balance with distilled, delineated shapes using brushstrokes aiming to capture nature’s spontaneity. The resulting pieces have a graphic quality with influences from many years of travel to East Asia, and study of East Asian art. Her work is represented in private collections nationally and internationally, and available through the Portland Art Museum’s Rental Sales gallery.

Christopher Belluschi is a sculptor based in Portland, Oregon. He sculpts reductively from both wood and stone and creates sculptures that are as captivating for the soul as they are for the eyes. He recently returned from six weeks of stone scouting and sculpting in Carrara, Italy. His current body of work reflects his reverence for Italian travertine, a storied, stratified stone which flaunts its bubbling formation in the primordial ooze.

This event is free and open to the public, meet the artists, view the collection, and enjoy refreshments.

The exhibition will be on display at Cannon Beach Arts Association from August 16th to September 22nd, 2024.
