SUMMARY:Vermont Vermouth Grand Opening Party
DESCRIPTION:Vermont Vermouth’s grand opening party to celebrate the release of their first products! There will be tasting tastings\, pairings\, vermouth by the glass\, and bottles to go. \nWhat is vermouth? Vermouth is fortified wine that has been infused with secret blends of herbs and spices. In the U.S.\, vermouth is classically used in cocktails\, such as the manhattan\, the martini\, and the negroni. In Europe\, vermouth is a popular apéritif on its own\, or with a splash of seltzer on the rocks as a low-alcohol cocktail.  \nVermont Vermouth was founded in 2019 by Kobey Shwayder\, a lifelong flavor enthusiast. By combining wine made from cold-tolerant grapes and local botanicals\, we look to create a unique craft vermouth with local flavor.

SUMMARY:The Architecture + Design Film Series | Vincent Scully: An Art Historian Among Architects
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Tom Piper & Edgar B. Howard (2010\, USA\, 56 mins)\n\n\n\n\nThe Architecture + Design Film Series\, shown monthly in Brattleboro and Burlington\, continues with a screening of VINCENT SCULLY: AN ART HISTORIAN AMONG ARCHITECTS (2010\, Directed by Tom Piper & Edgar B. Howard\, USA\, 56 min)\, a tribute to and study of America’s most famous art historian\, on Wednesday\, February 19 at 6:30 pm at 118 Elliot in downtown Brattleboro. The son of the documentary’s subject\, acclaimed architect Dan Scully\, will be a special guest at the screening. All film showings are free and open to all. \n\n\n\nKnown to pack the lecture hall and receive standing ovations at Yale University\, Vincent Scully has been called “the most influential architectural teacher ever.” An early champion of the work of such architects as Louis I. Kahn and Robert Ventura\, he has influenced every modern American student of architecture. He has shaken the hand of Prince Charles and received the National Medal of Arts from George W. Bush—in the United States\, nearly wherever you look\, you can see Vincent Scully’s influence. At Wednesday’s A + D Film Series screening\, Vincent Scully’s son Dan Scully\, whose internationally-known architecture firm is in Keene\, NH\, will lead a discussion on his father’s life and influence. \n\n\n\nThe Architecture + Design Film Series\, started six years ago in Burlington\, selects diverse films celebrating design in all its various forms.  Their success in Burlington led local architect Jim Williams\, who designed the popular 118 Elliot\, to extend the series’ reach to the opposite end of the state in Brattleboro with support from the American Institute of Architects Vermont Chapter (AIAVT) and numerous local business and individual sponsors.  Now the monthly screenings are held simultaneously in Burlington and in Brattleboro at 118 Elliot through April 2020.  Film showings are free and open to all\, presented to foster understanding and stimulate conversation about the impact of design and beauty in our daily lives. \n\n\n\nThe Architecture + Design Film Series website www.adfilmseries.org tells the history of the film series and presents film trailers for movies in this upcoming season. 118 Elliot is a modern\, fully accessible arts and educational center in downtown Brattleboro.

SUMMARY:"Democracy: Can it be saved? (and why bother)" A Debate Between Ambassador Basora & Dr. Wilking
DESCRIPTION:“Democracy: Can it be saved? (and why bother)” A Debate Between Ambassador Adrian Basora & Dr. Andrew Wilking \nFollowing by Q&A and discussion \nFriday February 21\, 7:00 PM \nThis event is a followup of a 2017 volume entitled Does Democracy Matter? The United States and Global Democracy Support\, of which Ambassador Basora is the principal author.  This work provided the conclusions of eleven scholars from widely different backgrounds who ask whether and\, if so\, how the U.S. should support democracy beyond its own borders. The authors agree that American strategic interests are served in the long run by the spread of democracy abroad\, but they differ as to how this support meshes with other national security goals. The concluding chapter outlines a system of triage for realistically assessing where and how such assistance can be effective in promoting US security interests. \nSince the publication of this work\, both the world\, and U.S. government actions regarding democracy abroad\, have changed significantly. And so has the state of our own democracy. \nThe program will start with a debate between Dr.Wilking and Ambassador Basora\, but will leave ample time for questions and dialogue. We hope you will be able to join us for what promises to be a lively and thought-provoking evening!

SUMMARY:Catalyst Training with Neva Cockrell
DESCRIPTION:After dancing with Pilobolus for over 3 years\, teaching ballet barre at Physique 57 in NYC and Dubai\, and directing the Art Monastery in Italy\, Neva was ready to call somewhere home and create her own blend of fitness\, embodiment\, and mindfulness — Catalyst Training. She moved to Vermont 4 years ago and has been teaching and refining the technique ever since.\n\n“After so much travel\, I was yearning to live close to the land. At the Art Monastery (now in Springfield\, VT) we explore contemplative practice\, creative practice\, and communal living. With my background and passion for movement\, once we landed in Vermont\, I started developing Catalyst Training based on what I did in my own daily practice. What I’m really excited about is blending opposites to refresh and awaken the body and mind.”Catalyst is both a full on work out and an awareness building session. We go from dance music to breath work\, we jump around the room and we do yoga poses on a mat. It’s my dream 2 hours of training the body and mind to be more awake\, more free\, and honestly\, happier.”\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCockrell will offer two 4-week workshop series at 118 Elliot on Saturdays from 10:00am-12:00pm from February 29-March 21 and April 4-May 2.\n\n\n\n\n\nPreregistration is required for both series by emailing Neva at Neva@LoomEnsemble.com​. \n\n“I experienced in myself and observed that Catalyst is incredibly accessible for a wide range of abilities and mobilities.” —Becky Miller\, Burlington\, Vermont\n\nOne of the beautiful things about the way this workshop is structured is that it can really meet you where you’re at. All levels of movement experience and ability are welcome. “It was a goal for me that the class could be diverse\,” Nevasays\, “when we share any space\, but especially a movement space with all different types of bodies\, each person learns more.” \n\n“Catalyst creates a container that allows me to give my body what it needs\, while also pushing me to push myself. I achieved more than I thought I could\, worked harder than I thought I wanted\, and loved it way more than I thought possible. This isn’t “exercise” or “strength training\,” it’s an expression of joy in sweat.” —Shawn\, Brooklyn\, NY\n\nCatalyst was birthed at the Art Monastery\, where Neva currently lives and is a co-director. When she was first creating Catalyst\, she taught it everyday for an entire summer to anyone who happened to be at the Art Monastery for a residency or retreat and asked for their feedback. The technique is therefore inherently steeped in similar values of bringing awareness into our everyday movements\, building community through kindness and connection\, and bringing creativity into even the smallest parts of our lives. \n\n“My experience of Catalyst Training with Neva was a full mind\, body\, spirit nourishing and full contact experience.” —Maria Pilar Pina\, Alexandria\, Virginia\n\nLearn More
