Have you been looking for a group to dance or learn to dance with that is centered on safety, connection, and healing? The NWA Center for Sexual Assault and Cece Marie Choreography are hosting free dance workshops beginning this summer. This is a healing-centered dance experience where survivors reclaim safety, creativity, and connection through movement and shared story. You deserve to feel safe in your body.

This workshop is open to adult survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, and / or human trafficking.

Sign up here: https://www.nwasexualassault.org/art-workshops-for-survivors

Because you are not alone.

Interest Survey - A new community chorus could be starting in Northwest Arkansas, and we would like to see if there is enough interest to make it happen. There is still information to plan as we are in the beginning stages, so your feedback is important. Please share this with anyone interested in being part of a community chorus. This will be a non-profit organization, but there will be a small fee to join. Rehearsals would be in the choir room at the Northwest Arkansas Community College (NWACC) campus.

Information:
Weekly or biweekly rehearsals
2 hours rehearsal
Keep the cost as low as possible, but a small fee to join.
2 concerts - fall/winter and spring
Concerts - 45 minutes - 1 hour
Repertoire - Something for everyone. (Classical Choral, Contemporary Choral, Show Tunes, Jazz, and Barbershop)

This is a true community chorus - there will be no audition. You don't have to read music, but it will be helpful.

This is not the official sign-up. I will continue to share further information only if you are interested.

We start up fall 25!

Your dog deserves the very best, so why not learn to create an appealing, safe, and delicious "Barkuterie" board for your beloved pooch?

Join Best Friends at Botanical Bentonville for a (human) wine and cheese pairing, plus a chance to curate and create a very special barkuterie board to take home to your best buddy!

Botanical is located at 8th and A St. in Bentonville.
