UPCOMING FAITH HOUSE EVENTS IN NYC:
November 15, Sat., 4 pm Spirit and the Creative Imagination(Subud Chelsea Center, 230 W 29th St) We will start us off with a guided mediation (kavanah) on intentionality in creativity and imagination led by our Jewish co-leader Jill Minkoff. Then we'll split into three groups: music, art, and writing. The music group, led by Kyle Fischer, formerly of the band Rainer Maria, and Vince Anderson, assistant Pastor for Revolution Church, will compose a song for an upcoming Living Room. The art group, led by Jill, will create circle drawings (mandalas) that we'll photograph for our Flickr Group page (plus we'll pick one to use on our next Faith House card!). The writing group, led by Aziz (son of Sheikha Fariha Al Jerrahi), will compose prose and poetry pieces, some to publish on the website or read in future Living Rooms. At the end, we'll all come back together for a time of sharing our creations and reflections on the experience. Fun!
