SUMMARY:Ladies First: House Classics Live
DESCRIPTION:Join Genuine Culture\, LLC for a high-energy\, live music celebration honoring the powerhouse women whose voices defined the golden era of house music. This electrifying concert experience will feature a live band led by Drummer extraordinaire Dwayne Keith and a lineup of dynamic female vocalists performing iconic dance floor anthems made famous by artists such as CeCe Peniston\, Robin S\, Crystal Waters\, Martha Wash\, Inner City\, Corona\, and Black Box. \nRooted in the cultural legacy of house music — a genre born from Black\, Latinx\, and LGBTQ+ communities in the 1980s — Ladies First highlights the art form’s deep connection to freedom\, empowerment\, inclusivity\, and self-expression. Through rhythm\, melody\, and movement\, house music has long been a celebration of life and community — a place where people come together to heal\, rejoice\, and feel seen. \nPresented in honor of Women’s History Month\, this event shines a light on the female vocalists who gave house music its soul. Their messages of love\, resilience\, and liberation continue to resonate across generations. Ladies First: House Classics Live will not only honor their artistic contributions but also invite audiences to experience the joy\, unity\, and spirit that make house music timeless. \nThis event is supported by the good folks at Holyoke Cultural Council

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: "Liberty and Labor" Exhibit at Wistariahurst
DESCRIPTION:Wistariahurst Museum is celebrating the Fourth Annual Women’s History Month juried art showcase. This year\, the theme is women’s labor and community building efforts. An opening reception for this exhibit entitled Liberty and Labor will be held on March 10th\, 2026. \nLiberty and Labor includes the work of artists who identify as women or nonbinary. Historically\, Women’s labor has been undervalued and overlooked. Oftentimes\, the work women have done in areas such as homemaking\, community building\, and parenting\, has not even been viewed as work. Liberty and Labor highlights these efforts\, and others\, that showcase the hard work and dedication of women throughout history. From fiber art to painting\, and sculpture\, this exhibit includes a wide array of thought provoking pieces that connect with this theme. \nArtists featured in this exhibit include Jankaleishka Burgos Cruz\, Amy Crawley\, Campbell Lackey\, and Nancy Myrdal Carroll . There are also several other artists who have been awarded honorable mentions and will display their work as well. \nThe opening reception of Liberty and labor will be held Tuesday\, March 10th\, from 4:30 – 6:30 pm. Wistariahurst is an artist-friendly space that encourages creativity and supports the growth of this region’s artists. Open Gallery Hours will be held from March 10th – April 7th on Mondays (10am-2pm) and Tuesdays (4:30pm-6:30pm)\, which will also be free and open to the public. We hope that you stop by and explore Liberty and Labor. \nThis program is funded in part by a grant from the Holyoke Local Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency. \nEl Museo Wistariahurst celebra la cuarta edición anual de la exposición de arte con jurado del Mes de la Historia de la Mujer. Este año\, el tema es el trabajo de las mujeres y sus esfuerzos por construir comunidad. La recepción inaugural de esta exposición\, titulada «Libertad y trabajo»\, se celebrará el 10 de marzo de 2026. \n«Libertad y trabajo» incluye obras de artistas que se identifican como mujeres o no binarias. Históricamente\, el trabajo de las mujeres ha sido infravalorado y pasado por alto. A menudo\, el trabajo que las mujeres han realizado en ámbitos como las tareas domésticas\, la construcción de la comunidad y la crianza de los hijos ni siquiera se ha considerado trabajo. «Libertad y trabajo» destaca estos esfuerzos\, entre otros\, que muestran el arduo trabajo y la dedicación de las mujeres a lo largo de la historia. Desde arte textil hasta pintura y escultura\, esta exposición incluye una amplia gama de piezas que invitan a la reflexión y que conectan con este tema. \nEntre los artistas que participan en esta exposición se encuentran Jankaleishka Burgos Cruz\, Amy Crawley\, Campbell Lackey y Nancy Myrdal Carroll. También hay otros artistas que han recibido menciones honoríficas y que también expondrán sus obras. \nLa recepción inaugural de Liberty and labor tendrá lugar el martes 10 de marzo\, de 4:30 a 6:30 p. m. Wistariahurst es un espacio acogedor para los artistas que fomenta la creatividad y apoya el crecimiento de los artistas de esta región. El horario de apertura de la galería será del 10 de marzo al 7 de abril\, los lunes (de 10:00 a 14:00) y los martes (de 16:30 a 18:30)\, y será gratuito y abierto al público. Esperamos que se acerque y explore «Libertad y trabajo». \nEste programa está financiado en parte por una subvención del Holyoke Local Cultural Council\, una agencia local que cuenta con el apoyo del Mass Cultural Council\, una agencia estatal.

SUMMARY:Beginning Your Spiritual Journey
DESCRIPTION:Every spiritual path begins with a single step… but it is the foundation of those steps that determines how far you can go. Beginning Your Spiritual Journey is a twelve-week Live In-Person immersive course designed to give you the tools\, practices\, and wisdom to start safely\, clearly\, and with confidence. Over the span of three months\, you will learn how to ground and protect your energy\, clear your field\, and strengthen your spiritual awareness. Week by week\, you’ll discover how to work with the elements of Earth\, Water\, Fire\, and Air; awaken the chakras and understand their role in your wellbeing; and practice seeing auras\, connecting with guides\, and sensing energy in yourself and others. With every session\, you will experience your growth in real time\, noticing how much stronger\, steadier\, and more open your energy becomes. This is not theory alone. You will be given practical exercises: feeling and moving energy in your hands\, using breathwork to balance the elements\, learning to sense truth from falsehood\, practicing psychometry\, and even exploring the four directions and their sacred teachings. We will weave together grounding\, natural law\, compassion\, and spiritual hygiene so that your journey begins from a place of strength. By the end of the twelve weeks\, you will have a living road map to continue your path; one that includes protection practices\, a deeper understanding of your own aura and chakras\, connection with spirit guides\, and a foundation of natural law and compassion to guide you. This course is perfect for those at the beginning of their spiritual awakening\, as well as anyone who has explored before but longs for a stronger\, safer\, more heart-centered foundation. “Early Bird” Coupon Code upon checkout to save $25 if you sign up by Feb 28!

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: "Liberty and Labor" Exhibit at Wistariahurst
DESCRIPTION:Wistariahurst Museum is celebrating the Fourth Annual Women’s History Month juried art showcase. This year\, the theme is women’s labor and community building efforts. An opening reception for this exhibit entitled Liberty and Labor will be held on March 10th\, 2026. \nLiberty and Labor includes the work of artists who identify as women or nonbinary. Historically\, Women’s labor has been undervalued and overlooked. Oftentimes\, the work women have done in areas such as homemaking\, community building\, and parenting\, has not even been viewed as work. Liberty and Labor highlights these efforts\, and others\, that showcase the hard work and dedication of women throughout history. From fiber art to painting\, and sculpture\, this exhibit includes a wide array of thought provoking pieces that connect with this theme. \nArtists featured in this exhibit include Jankaleishka Burgos Cruz\, Amy Crawley\, Campbell Lackey\, and Nancy Myrdal Carroll . There are also several other artists who have been awarded honorable mentions and will display their work as well. \nThe opening reception of Liberty and labor will be held Tuesday\, March 10th\, from 4:30 – 6:30 pm. Wistariahurst is an artist-friendly space that encourages creativity and supports the growth of this region’s artists. Open Gallery Hours will be held from March 10th – April 7th on Mondays (10am-2pm) and Tuesdays (4:30pm-6:30pm)\, which will also be free and open to the public. We hope that you stop by and explore Liberty and Labor. \nThis program is funded in part by a grant from the Holyoke Local Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency. \nEl Museo Wistariahurst celebra la cuarta edición anual de la exposición de arte con jurado del Mes de la Historia de la Mujer. Este año\, el tema es el trabajo de las mujeres y sus esfuerzos por construir comunidad. La recepción inaugural de esta exposición\, titulada «Libertad y trabajo»\, se celebrará el 10 de marzo de 2026. \n«Libertad y trabajo» incluye obras de artistas que se identifican como mujeres o no binarias. Históricamente\, el trabajo de las mujeres ha sido infravalorado y pasado por alto. A menudo\, el trabajo que las mujeres han realizado en ámbitos como las tareas domésticas\, la construcción de la comunidad y la crianza de los hijos ni siquiera se ha considerado trabajo. «Libertad y trabajo» destaca estos esfuerzos\, entre otros\, que muestran el arduo trabajo y la dedicación de las mujeres a lo largo de la historia. Desde arte textil hasta pintura y escultura\, esta exposición incluye una amplia gama de piezas que invitan a la reflexión y que conectan con este tema. \nEntre los artistas que participan en esta exposición se encuentran Jankaleishka Burgos Cruz\, Amy Crawley\, Campbell Lackey y Nancy Myrdal Carroll. También hay otros artistas que han recibido menciones honoríficas y que también expondrán sus obras. \nLa recepción inaugural de Liberty and labor tendrá lugar el martes 10 de marzo\, de 4:30 a 6:30 p. m. Wistariahurst es un espacio acogedor para los artistas que fomenta la creatividad y apoya el crecimiento de los artistas de esta región. El horario de apertura de la galería será del 10 de marzo al 7 de abril\, los lunes (de 10:00 a 14:00) y los martes (de 16:30 a 18:30)\, y será gratuito y abierto al público. Esperamos que se acerque y explore «Libertad y trabajo». \nEste programa está financiado en parte por una subvención del Holyoke Local Cultural Council\, una agencia local que cuenta con el apoyo del Mass Cultural Council\, una agencia estatal.

SUMMARY:Beginning Your Spiritual Journey
DESCRIPTION:Every spiritual path begins with a single step… but it is the foundation of those steps that determines how far you can go. Beginning Your Spiritual Journey is a twelve-week Live In-Person immersive course designed to give you the tools\, practices\, and wisdom to start safely\, clearly\, and with confidence. Over the span of three months\, you will learn how to ground and protect your energy\, clear your field\, and strengthen your spiritual awareness. Week by week\, you’ll discover how to work with the elements of Earth\, Water\, Fire\, and Air; awaken the chakras and understand their role in your wellbeing; and practice seeing auras\, connecting with guides\, and sensing energy in yourself and others. With every session\, you will experience your growth in real time\, noticing how much stronger\, steadier\, and more open your energy becomes. This is not theory alone. You will be given practical exercises: feeling and moving energy in your hands\, using breathwork to balance the elements\, learning to sense truth from falsehood\, practicing psychometry\, and even exploring the four directions and their sacred teachings. We will weave together grounding\, natural law\, compassion\, and spiritual hygiene so that your journey begins from a place of strength. By the end of the twelve weeks\, you will have a living road map to continue your path; one that includes protection practices\, a deeper understanding of your own aura and chakras\, connection with spirit guides\, and a foundation of natural law and compassion to guide you. This course is perfect for those at the beginning of their spiritual awakening\, as well as anyone who has explored before but longs for a stronger\, safer\, more heart-centered foundation. “Early Bird” Coupon Code upon checkout to save $25 if you sign up by Feb 28!

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: "Liberty and Labor" Exhibit at Wistariahurst
DESCRIPTION:Wistariahurst Museum is celebrating the Fourth Annual Women’s History Month juried art showcase. This year\, the theme is women’s labor and community building efforts. An opening reception for this exhibit entitled Liberty and Labor will be held on March 10th\, 2026. \nLiberty and Labor includes the work of artists who identify as women or nonbinary. Historically\, Women’s labor has been undervalued and overlooked. Oftentimes\, the work women have done in areas such as homemaking\, community building\, and parenting\, has not even been viewed as work. Liberty and Labor highlights these efforts\, and others\, that showcase the hard work and dedication of women throughout history. From fiber art to painting\, and sculpture\, this exhibit includes a wide array of thought provoking pieces that connect with this theme. \nArtists featured in this exhibit include Jankaleishka Burgos Cruz\, Amy Crawley\, Campbell Lackey\, and Nancy Myrdal Carroll . There are also several other artists who have been awarded honorable mentions and will display their work as well. \nThe opening reception of Liberty and labor will be held Tuesday\, March 10th\, from 4:30 – 6:30 pm. Wistariahurst is an artist-friendly space that encourages creativity and supports the growth of this region’s artists. Open Gallery Hours will be held from March 10th – April 7th on Mondays (10am-2pm) and Tuesdays (4:30pm-6:30pm)\, which will also be free and open to the public. We hope that you stop by and explore Liberty and Labor. \nThis program is funded in part by a grant from the Holyoke Local Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency. \nEl Museo Wistariahurst celebra la cuarta edición anual de la exposición de arte con jurado del Mes de la Historia de la Mujer. Este año\, el tema es el trabajo de las mujeres y sus esfuerzos por construir comunidad. La recepción inaugural de esta exposición\, titulada «Libertad y trabajo»\, se celebrará el 10 de marzo de 2026. \n«Libertad y trabajo» incluye obras de artistas que se identifican como mujeres o no binarias. Históricamente\, el trabajo de las mujeres ha sido infravalorado y pasado por alto. A menudo\, el trabajo que las mujeres han realizado en ámbitos como las tareas domésticas\, la construcción de la comunidad y la crianza de los hijos ni siquiera se ha considerado trabajo. «Libertad y trabajo» destaca estos esfuerzos\, entre otros\, que muestran el arduo trabajo y la dedicación de las mujeres a lo largo de la historia. Desde arte textil hasta pintura y escultura\, esta exposición incluye una amplia gama de piezas que invitan a la reflexión y que conectan con este tema. \nEntre los artistas que participan en esta exposición se encuentran Jankaleishka Burgos Cruz\, Amy Crawley\, Campbell Lackey y Nancy Myrdal Carroll. También hay otros artistas que han recibido menciones honoríficas y que también expondrán sus obras. \nLa recepción inaugural de Liberty and labor tendrá lugar el martes 10 de marzo\, de 4:30 a 6:30 p. m. Wistariahurst es un espacio acogedor para los artistas que fomenta la creatividad y apoya el crecimiento de los artistas de esta región. El horario de apertura de la galería será del 10 de marzo al 7 de abril\, los lunes (de 10:00 a 14:00) y los martes (de 16:30 a 18:30)\, y será gratuito y abierto al público. Esperamos que se acerque y explore «Libertad y trabajo». \nEste programa está financiado en parte por una subvención del Holyoke Local Cultural Council\, una agencia local que cuenta con el apoyo del Mass Cultural Council\, una agencia estatal.

SUMMARY:Exploring the Vernal Pool at Gloutak Woods
DESCRIPTION:Spring is upon us and many ecosystems are beginning to stir as winter conditions recede. In our woodlands\, shallow\, water-filled depressions filled by snow-melt are seasonal wetlands that provide vital breeding habitat to many fascinating animals\, including amphibians like wood frogs and spotted salamanders\, and macroinvertebrates like fairy shrimp and caddisflies. These ephemeral wetlands\, also known as vernal pools\, are home to some “vernal pool obligate” species\, meaning they are only found in or around vernal pools. \nJoin us on Saturday\, April 11\, 9:00-11:00 AM for an exploration of the vernal pool at Gloutak Woods in Holyoke. The event will be led by Laurel Carpenter\, Environmental Science Professor and Chair at Holyoke Community College. She will be joined by some of her students who are participating in environmental science research projects. \nWe will bring equipment for gathering and viewing up close what we find: perhaps salamander eggs\, tadpoles\, and fairy shrimp. A great family event to learn about vernal pools before they vanish!\nVernal pool at Gloutak Woods\nIn 2019\, with Kestrel’s assistance\, the City of Holyoke purchased this 51-acre forest\, protected from development with a conservation restriction held by Kestrel. In 2022\, the trail system at Gloutak Woods was transformed for the enjoyment of the wider public by the great work of Greenagers. \nLaurel Carpenter\, a 2012 graduate of Holyoke Community College (HCC)\, is a wildlife biologist who chairs the HCC Environmental Science Department. She is co-coordinator of the HCC STEM Scholars program and a graduate student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst\, where she is pursuing a doctorate in education. \nRegistration is required. \nA sliding-scale donation is optional.

SUMMARY:Beginning Your Spiritual Journey
DESCRIPTION:Every spiritual path begins with a single step… but it is the foundation of those steps that determines how far you can go. Beginning Your Spiritual Journey is a twelve-week Live In-Person immersive course designed to give you the tools\, practices\, and wisdom to start safely\, clearly\, and with confidence. Over the span of three months\, you will learn how to ground and protect your energy\, clear your field\, and strengthen your spiritual awareness. Week by week\, you’ll discover how to work with the elements of Earth\, Water\, Fire\, and Air; awaken the chakras and understand their role in your wellbeing; and practice seeing auras\, connecting with guides\, and sensing energy in yourself and others. With every session\, you will experience your growth in real time\, noticing how much stronger\, steadier\, and more open your energy becomes. This is not theory alone. You will be given practical exercises: feeling and moving energy in your hands\, using breathwork to balance the elements\, learning to sense truth from falsehood\, practicing psychometry\, and even exploring the four directions and their sacred teachings. We will weave together grounding\, natural law\, compassion\, and spiritual hygiene so that your journey begins from a place of strength. By the end of the twelve weeks\, you will have a living road map to continue your path; one that includes protection practices\, a deeper understanding of your own aura and chakras\, connection with spirit guides\, and a foundation of natural law and compassion to guide you. This course is perfect for those at the beginning of their spiritual awakening\, as well as anyone who has explored before but longs for a stronger\, safer\, more heart-centered foundation. “Early Bird” Coupon Code upon checkout to save $25 if you sign up by Feb 28!

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Fans\, Fashion and Feminism
DESCRIPTION:Come view “Fans\, Fashion and Feminism” an exhibit that will reveal and demonstrate the secret language of the Victorian hand fan. \nWistariahurst Museum is delighted to announce that on April 21\, it will exhibit\, reveal\, and demonstrate the secret language of the Victorian hand fan. The event will feature an exhibit of beautifully crafted fans and a live demonstration of how “fan language” was used to communicate without speaking a word. \nAlthough hand fans were a “must-have” fashion accessory for women of the time\, they also marked the beginning of women’s determination to free themselves from the oppression of the patriarchy and the overzealous eyes of chaperones during the Victorian era. Attendees will learn how the simple hand fan helped energize women to pursue greater independence… walking without a male escort\, riding a bicycle\, redesigning fashion\, and demanding control of their everyday lives. \nA live demonstration of fan language will be held during the opening reception by historic performer Kandie Carle. What began as a simple cooling device evolved to a symbol of status and wealth\, then became an instrument of change to human relationships and social codes. Fans are a tangible record of art\, history\, and the ongoing connection among cultures. \nAbout the Curator \nDeborah Long is a volunteer at Wistariahurst and an enthusiastic participant in the museum’s events\, projects\, and ongoing activities. One project was to reconcile the linen closet’s contents with the inventoried list of items kept there. While examining each item in the various drawers and cupboards of the closet\, she discovered a collection of Victorian hand fans. Impressed by their beauty and curious about their use\, she explored the hand fan’s history and significance to women of that time. The “secret language of the hand fan” and its impact on changing the lives of women is a story she’d like to share with you on April 21\, 2026. \nThe fashions in this exhibit were curated by Joanne Picard and Elizabeth Wood. Picard and Wood are also Wistariahurst volunteers. \nThis program is funded in part by a grant from the Holyoke Local Cultural Council\, a local \nagency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency. \nEl Museo Wistariahurst se complace en anunciar que el 21 de abril expondrá\, desvelará y mostrará el lenguaje secreto de los abanicos victorianos. El evento contará con una exposición de abanicos de bella factura y una demostración en directo de cómo se utilizaba el «lenguaje de los abanicos» para comunicarse sin pronunciar una sola palabra. \nAunque los abanicos de mano eran un accesorio de moda «imprescindible» para las mujeres de la época\, también marcaron el inicio de la determinación de las mujeres por liberarse de la opresión del patriarcado y de las miradas excesivamente celosas de los chaperones durante la era victoriana. Los asistentes aprenderán cómo el sencillo abanico de mano ayudó a empoderar a las mujeres para que buscaran una mayor independencia… caminando sin escolta masculina\, montando en bicicleta\, rediseñando la moda y exigiendo el control de sus vidas cotidianas. \nDurante la recepción inaugural\, la intérprete histórica Kandie Carle ofrecerá una demostración en directo del lenguaje de los abanicos. Lo que comenzó como un simple dispositivo para refrescarse evolucionó hasta convertirse en un símbolo de estatus y riqueza\, y luego se transformó en un instrumento de cambio en las relaciones humanas y los códigos sociales. Los abanicos son un registro tangible del arte\, la historia y la conexión continua entre las culturas. \nAcerca de la comisaria \nDeborah Long es voluntaria en Wistariahurst y participa con entusiasmo en los eventos\, proyectos y actividades habituales del museo. Uno de sus proyectos consistió en cotejar el contenido del armario de la ropa blanca con el inventario de los objetos que allí se guardaban. Mientras examinaba cada objeto en los distintos cajones y armarios del armario\, descubrió una colección de abanicos victorianos. Impresionada por su belleza y con curiosidad por su uso\, exploró la historia del abanico y su importancia para las mujeres de aquella época. El «lenguaje secreto del abanico» y su impacto en la transformación de la vida de las mujeres es una historia que le gustaría compartir con ustedes el 21 de abril de 2026. \nLa selección de prendas de esta exposición ha sido comisariada por Joanne Picard y Elizabeth Wood. Picard y Wood también son voluntarias de Wistariahurst. \nEste programa está financiado en parte por una subvención del Consejo Cultural Local de Holyoke\, una agencia local \nque cuenta con el apoyo del Consejo Cultural de Massachusetts\, una agencia estatal.

Over the span of three months\, you will learn how to ground and protect your energy\, clear your field\, and strengthen your spiritual awareness.

You will be given practical exercises: feeling and moving energy in your hands\, using breathwork to balance the elements\, learning to sense truth from falsehood\, practicing psychometry\, and even exploring the four directions and their sacred teachings. We will weave together grounding\, natural law\, compassion\, and spiritual hygiene so that your journey begins from a place of strength. By the end of the twelve weeks\, you will have a living road map to continue your path; one that includes protection practices\, a deeper understanding of your own aura and chakras\, connection with spirit guides\, and a foundation of natural law and compassion to guide you. This course is perfect for those at the beginning of their spiritual awakening\, as well as anyone who has explored before but longs for a stronger\, safer\, more heart-centered foundation. “Early Bird” Coupon Code upon checkout to save $25 if you sign up by Feb 28!

SUMMARY:“Each Knuckle with Sugar”: A Reading & Conversation with Sarah Levine
DESCRIPTION:Join the Wistariahurst Museum for an evening with poet Sarah Levine\, whose collection Each Knuckle with Sugar received Poetry Honors in the Massachusetts Book Awards. This program will feature a reading from the collection\, followed by a conversation with the poet and an audience Q&A. Attendees are invited to engage with the poems and hear Levine speak about her creative process\, influences\, and the questions that shape her work. \nEach Knuckle with Sugar is a collection in which play becomes power at the turn of a page or a line. Sarah Levine’s endlessly inventive imagery offers readers a charged interiority through language that surprises\, delights\, and—at times—bares its teeth. The book’s lively wonder is driven by the interplay of grief\, love\, loss\, confusion\, and desire\, unfolding through an epistolary exchange between two recurring speakers\, Herman and Begonia. \nThis program is sponsored by the Mass Book Awards Speakers Bureau and is presented in collaboration with the Massachusetts Center for the Book. \nSARAH LEVINE is the author of Each Knuckle with Sugar\, winner of the Driftwood Press Open Reading Contest and a 2025 Massachusetts Book Awards Honors recipient in Poetry. She is also the author of the chapbooks Take Me Home and Her Man\, and her work has appeared in Poets & Writers\, The Paris American\, Passages North\, Green Mountains Review\, and the Best New Poets anthology\, among others. Levine teaches at Williston Northampton School and lives in Western Massachusetts.

Week by week\, you’ll discover how to work with the elements of Earth\, Water\, Fire\, and Air; awaken the chakras and understand their role in your wellbeing; and practice seeing auras\, connecting with guides\, and sensing energy in yourself and others. With every session\, you will experience your growth in real time\, noticing how much stronger\, steadier\, and more open your energy becomes. This is not theory alone. You will be given practical exercises: feeling and moving energy in your hands\, using breathwork to balance the elements\, learning to sense truth from falsehood\, practicing psychometry\, and even exploring the four directions and their sacred teachings. We will weave together grounding\, natural law\, compassion\, and spiritual hygiene so that your journey begins from a place of strength. By the end of the twelve weeks\, you will have a living road map to continue your path; one that includes protection practices\, a deeper understanding of your own aura and chakras\, connection with spirit guides\, and a foundation of natural law and compassion to guide you. This course is perfect for those at the beginning of their spiritual awakening\, as well as anyone who has explored before but longs for a stronger\, safer\, more heart-centered foundation. “Early Bird” Coupon Code upon checkout to save $25 if you sign up by Feb 28!

SUMMARY:Beginning Your Spiritual Journey
DESCRIPTION:Every spiritual path begins with a single step… but it is the foundation of those steps that determines how far you can go. Beginning Your Spiritual Journey is a twelve-week Live In-Person immersive course designed to give you the tools\, practices\, and wisdom to start safely\, clearly\, and with confidence. Over the span of three months\, you will learn how to ground and protect your energy\, clear your field\, and strengthen your spiritual awareness. Week by week\, you’ll discover how to work with the elements of Earth\, Water\, Fire\, and Air; awaken the chakras and understand their role in your wellbeing; and practice seeing auras\, connecting with guides\, and sensing energy in yourself and others. With every session\, you will experience your growth in real time\, noticing how much stronger\, steadier\, and more open your energy becomes. This is not theory alone. You will be given practical exercises: feeling and moving energy in your hands\, using breathwork to balance the elements\, learning to sense truth from falsehood\, practicing psychometry\, and even exploring the four directions and their sacred teachings. We will weave together grounding\, natural law\, compassion\, and spiritual hygiene so that your journey begins from a place of strength. By the end of the twelve weeks\, you will have a living road map to continue your path; one that includes protection practices\, a deeper understanding of your own aura and chakras\, connection with spirit guides\, and a foundation of natural law and compassion to guide you. This course is perfect for those at the beginning of their spiritual awakening\, as well as anyone who has explored before but longs for a stronger\, safer\, more heart-centered foundation. “Early Bird” Coupon Code upon checkout to save $25 if you sign up by Feb 28!

SUMMARY:Recovering Histories of Indigenous Presence in the Kwinitekw (Connecticut River Valley) with Dr. Marge Bruchac
DESCRIPTION:For many millennia\, Native people lived along the Kwinitekw (Connecticut River) in western Massachusetts\, sustained by local flora and fauna and supported by reciprocal trade and diplomacy with their Native neighbors. During the 1600s\, Native leaders in Agawam (now Springfield)\, Woronoco (now Westfield)\, Nonotuck (now Northampton and Hadley) and Pocumtuck (now Deerfield and Greenfield) invited English colonists to establish trading posts and small settlements. Sachems like Chickwalloppe\, Mashalisk\, and Umpanchela negotiated diplomatic and trade relations with English colonial settlers and attempted to preserve\, in written deeds\, Indigenous rights to hunt\, fish\, gather\, plant\, and live here in perpetuity. During the late 1600s and into the 1700s\, colonial conflict and warfare violated these agreements and fractured these relations. This talk offers glimpses into colonial relations\, while also reflecting on the lives of Native families who remained highly visible – literally “hiding in plain sight” – in the aftermath of warfare and displacement\, utilizing long-standing Indigenous skills\, kinship networks\, and ecological knowledges to make a comfortable living\, while supplying their white neighbors with medicinal\, material\, and practical assistance. \nDr. Margaret M. Bruchac (Nulhegan Abenaki) – in her multi-modal career as a performer\, ethnographer\, historian\, and museum consultant – has long been committed to critical analyses of colonial histories and recoveries of Indigenous histories and cultural heritage. She holds a BA in Theater and History from Smith College\, and a PhD from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. At the University of Pennsylvania\, Dr. Bruchac is Professor Emerita of Anthropology\, founder of the Native American and Indigenous Studies Initiative at Penn\, consultant to the American Section of the Penn Museum\, and former Associate Faculty in the Penn Cultural Heritage Center. Bruchac directs “The Wampum Trail\,” a restorative research project designed to reconnect wampum belts and other cultural heritage objects in museum collections with their related Indigenous communities. She has long served as a consultant to New England museums\, including Historic Northampton\, Historic Deerfield\, the Pocumtuck Valley Memorial Association\, and Old Sturbridge Village. Her 2018 book – Savage Kin: Indigenous Informants and American Anthropologists (University of Arizona Press) – was the winner of the inaugural Council for Museum Anthropology Book Award. \nSponsored by the Holyoke History Room. Made possible by a grant from the Holyoke Local Cultural Council\, a local agency\, and funded by the Massachusetts Cultural Council\, a state agency. \nIllustration by Francis Back for Raid on Deerfield website\, Pocumtuck Valley Memorial Association\, 2004.

SUMMARY:Beginning Your Spiritual Journey

Beginning Your Spiritual Journey is a twelve-week Live In-Person immersive course designed to give you the tools\, practices\, and wisdom to start safely\, clearly\, and with confidence. Over the span of three months\, you will learn how to ground and protect your energy\, clear your field\, and strengthen your spiritual awareness.

You will be given practical exercises: feeling and moving energy in your hands\, using breathwork to balance the elements\, learning to sense truth from falsehood\, practicing psychometry\, and even exploring the four directions and their sacred teachings. We will weave together grounding\, natural law\, compassion\, and spiritual hygiene so that your journey begins from a place of strength.

SUMMARY:Beginning Your Spiritual Journey
DESCRIPTION:Every spiritual path begins with a single step… but it is the foundation of those steps that determines how far you can go. Beginning Your Spiritual Journey is a twelve-week Live In-Person immersive course designed to give you the tools\, practices\, and wisdom to start safely\, clearly\, and with confidence. Over the span of three months\, you will learn how to ground and protect your energy\, clear your field\, and strengthen your spiritual awareness. Week by week\, you’ll discover how to work with the elements of Earth\, Water\, Fire\, and Air; awaken the chakras and understand their role in your wellbeing; and practice seeing auras\, connecting with guides\, and sensing energy in yourself and others. With every session\, you will experience your growth in real time\, noticing how much stronger\, steadier\, and more open your energy becomes. This is not theory alone. You will be given practical exercises: feeling and moving energy in your hands\, using breathwork to balance the elements\, learning to sense truth from falsehood\, practicing psychometry\, and even exploring the four directions and their sacred teachings. We will weave together grounding\, natural law\, compassion\, and spiritual hygiene so that your journey begins from a place of strength. By the end of the twelve weeks\, you will have a living road map to continue your path; one that includes protection practices\, a deeper understanding of your own aura and chakras\, connection with spirit guides\, and a foundation of natural law and compassion to guide you. This course is perfect for those at the beginning of their spiritual awakening\, as well as anyone who has explored before but longs for a stronger\, safer\, more heart-centered foundation. “Early Bird” Coupon Code upon checkout to save $25 if you sign up by Feb 28!
