Sound Healing
57 STEWART AVE - ROSCOE, NY
On the first Thursday of every month, Elenie creates a sacred space in her sound baths, one that allows relaxation & wellness for the mind, body, and soul.

This gives the opportunity to unplug from external stimuli and to gain perspective on what’s going on within. The goal of this sound healing experience is to promote peace, calmness, relaxation, self-discovery, and an overall experience of wellbeing.

Why Marx?
57 STEWART AVE - ROSCOE, NY
Why Marx? Not for politics in the usual sense—not to debate communism or socialist strategy—but to think more deeply about ideas, language, and how they shape our lives. At its core, this class is about reading and thinking.
At a moment when attention feels fractured and crisis feels constant, Marx offers a model of rigorous, expansive thought. He wrote powerfully about history, literature, political economy, and modern life itself, leaving behind a legacy that continues to influence philosophy, feminism, labor movements, postcolonial studies, and more.
Over 4 weeks, we will read Marx and those around him closely, paying attention not only to what they say, but how they say it. The goal is simple: to rediscover the pleasure of sentences and the excitement of ideas. The ambition is to read.
Lead by Bob Ryan.
Tributary: Ianthe Jackson
57 STEWART AVE - ROSCOE, NY
Ianthe Jackson will be talking about her artwork over the past 20 years and looking at the conceptual links throughout the work. Although the work has changed a lot and of various mediums, she will be looking at ideas of finding ancestry and how we as Americans have been severed of our culture and influenced through a culture of capitalism. Finding common ground through nature and land, and exploring the ties we have to land. https://www.ianthe-jackson.com/

Voluptuary: Seth Carnes - Semiotic Poetry
57 STEWART AVE - ROSCOE, NY
For over a decade, Seth Carnes has developed the concept of a mutable, semiotic poetry.
Semiotic poetry connects to the lineage of concrete and visual poetry, also Fluxus and the Beats, where text, photos, glyphs, emoji, and other symbols are channeled towards poetic, evocative, and representative readings that are often open-ended.
This contemporary poetry is generated by hand, with software, producing a mutable and interactive poem and file format, but remains connected to a long lineage of physical and analog techniques, including chance operations and cut-ups.
Because this work is more visual, his “reading” will be a digitally projected presentation of this work and lineage, followed by the creation of a collaborative improv “poetic” with the audience in realtime.
For the open mic that follows, attendees are welcome to bring traditional written and read poetry, but also expanded poetics like visual or concrete poetry.
Bio:
Seth Indigo Carnes, aka [sic], is a post-conceptual artist with a multidisciplinary practice, focused in language art, public art, digital art, cinema, performance, installation, research, and publishing.

His artwork and projects have been featured in a variety of art venues, including PS1 MoMA, the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art, the Emily Harvey Foundation, Microscope Gallery, Garis & Hahn, and many more; he has also performed throughout the United States, in Europe, and Japan.
