SUMMARY:“Stealing Like an Artist” Painting Workshop with Marlene Lowden
DESCRIPTION:If you’re ready to get your hands seriously messy\, join me for a two-day painting extravaganza inspired by the idea that great artists gather\, remix\, and make it their own. Across these two days\, we’ll play\, experiment\, and make art that’s all yours\, inspired by sparks you find in other artists’ work. And yes\, we’ll be guided by David Bowie’s glorious wisdom: “The only art I’ll ever study is the stuff that I can steal from.” \nThis workshop is best for folks who have some painting experience (or who joined me for the previous weekend) —you don’t need to be a pro\, just comfy enough with your materials to dive in and explore.

SUMMARY:SC Arts Centre: Sunday Film Series: The Stand
DESCRIPTION:We close the series with The Stand\, a film by Christopher Auchter that honours the Elders\, activists and supernatural spirits who helped shape a new future for the Haida Nation—and for all of Canada. In the fall of 1985\, a small group of Haida people stood on a muddy logging road on Lyell Island—and refused to move. What followed was a landmark act of peaceful resistance that helped spark a nationwide reckoning around land\, sovereignty and environmental justice. Drawing from over a hundred hours of electrifying archival footage\, The Stand immerses us in the tension\, courage and quiet humanity of that moment.\nDoors at 3:30; Entrance by donation

SUMMARY:Assertive Communication Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Do you often replay conversations afterwards\, wishing you’d spoken up — or worry that being more direct might upset someone or create tension? This small-group workshop is for people who tend to people-please\, avoid conflict\, or second-guess themselves\, even when they know their needs matter. \nThe first half of the workshop focuses on understanding what assertiveness is and why it can feel so hard to put into action. We’ll explore common communication patterns\, the role of the nervous system in moments of discomfort or conflict\, and why many people freeze\, over-explain\, or stay quiet rather than risk being misunderstood or creating conflict. \nAfter a 30-min break\, the second half provides space to apply what you’ve learned. Participants are encouraged (but never required) to bring real-lif
