Buddhists who part contemplatively

Contemplative Creativity Lab invites one and all to its 4th Annual Winter Hootenanny.

Bring a story, poem, photo, or creative endeavor to share. All expressions are welcome. We'll begin with a word play, so bring a common childhood phrase.

Pema Chodron, FREE, Sunday Gatherings (Shambhala LA)

Hootenanny is a common Appalachian word from Scottish and Irish for “celebration” or “jam.” It's a hoot!

Nowadays the word commonly refers to a gathering at which any and all are welcome to present their art or talent for about five minutes. Sing a song, tell a story, perform a poem or spoken word in front of an audience. No experience necessary.

Art teacher Angie Lloyd, MFA explores how HUMOR, silence, and speech create a safe container for interrelated art experiences for the body, mind, and speech. It's the element of surprise that matters. Angie is a master storyteller, musician, and an award-winning recording artist.
