SUMMARY:Water(color) for the Soul: Sounds of the Prairie (Visit 6)
DESCRIPTION:Water(color) for the Soul: Sounds of the Prairie (Visit 6)\n\n\n\nReturning in 2026\, Black Moon Trio once again invites Veterans and their family members to create and perform their own original musical compositions in Water(color) for the Soul: Sounds of the Prairie. Grounded in the ecology and literary traditions of the prairie\, this program explores how our own root systems run deep to withstand tumultuous storms and provide support in shaping individual and collective identity. \n\n\n\nUsing resources from Brushwood Center’s At Ease and Art Supply Exchange programs\, Veterans participate in a six-week graphic score and poetry composition residency culminating in the creation of 15 original pieces of music performed and recorded by professional musicians.  \n\n\n\nBlack Moon Trio is honored to again be joined by poet and creativity expert\, Kathryn Haydon and world-renowned botanical artist\, Heeyoung Kim and members of her Botanical Art Academy. Together\, they help provide expert insight on poetry\, literature\, and artistic methods and techniques inspired by prairie ecosystems designed to frame participant’s compositions.  \n\n\n\nThis is a six-week program–each week builds on previous work.  \n\n\n\nThis program has been generously funded by the National Endowment for the Arts’ Creative Forces initiative. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTER  HERE

SUMMARY:At Ease Book Club: Chasing the Daylight
DESCRIPTION:At Ease Book Club: Chasing the Daylight\, by Joanna Rakowski\n\n\n\nIn celebration of Women’s History Month\, the At Ease program is launching our 2026 At Ease book club with a story from a women Veteran. We will examine Joanna Rakowski’s unique story and explore our own personal identities and how the military community has shaped them.  \n\n\n\nWhat is it like to be part of the world’s most powerful armed forces at the dawn of the 21st century? Does a military tale have to be about the men going to war? You’ll find out in Chasing the Daylight: One Woman’s Journey to Becoming a U.S. Army Intelligence Officer. Joanna is a fragile\, romantic\, former ballerina. After a painful rift with her beloved friend and mentor\, she joins the U.S. Army. Her dream is to become an Intelligence Officer. She faces a formidable task\, but she embarks on a four-year journey to accomplish her goal. The story whirls us into the center of the rigorous army training and transports us into the reality that only less than one percent of the U.S. population would ever experience. \n\n\n\nQuestions?
