In October 2021 I was humbled to be ask to co-present at the Groundwork Conference about our recent Ping Chong + Company production working with older adults.

I’m so happy to report that now you can watch it on YouTube!

And I highly recommend that you do! So many incredible artists doing powerful work were also featured!

This late fall and early winter brought with it some of the most profound overwhelm and exhaustion I’ve seen during the pandemic so far. It was painful, and folks were BEYOND ready to rest at the end of 2021.

As 2022 has gotten started, a few seeds that were planted a looooong time ago have sprouted into some exciting projects that I’m excited to share with you all.

Usually July has been a slower month for me with school educators taking a break, and non-profits slowing down during the hottest summer months.

This week broke that trend with a few really exciting opportunities.

After a long winter of slowness, and trying (mostly unsuccessfully) to rest, there is an April flurry of activity. This winter I thought a lot about dormancy - how plant life simply looks dead in the winter - you can’t see a difference. The frogs that chirp all spring and fall are silent - I figured they died. But the trees, bushes, and frogs were just slowed WAY down and concentrating all their energy so they could burst forth in the spring.
