SUMMARY:MJ Sharp Open Studio Tour
DESCRIPTION:RCWMS Artist in Residence MJ Sharp will lead a hands-on demonstration of a variety of vintage cameras and share the role they have each played in her artistic journey over the past decades. Photography is an art form in which\, increasingly\, you can make a picture when you didn’t mean to — accidentally pressing a button on your phone\, for example. While serendipity is also part of the most affecting images from stand-alone cameras\, preparedness and skill and a spirit of technical exploration are also required. Older cameras\, due to their technical complexity\, provide the photographer useful constraints to either embrace or press against\, and without question\, the successful picture will still be a surprise of the combination of the photographer’s intent and the camera’s nature. \nPictured: Dark Dill\, from an 8×10 bellows camera \n \nLeader: A photographic artist and educator based in Durham\, North Carolina\, MJ was a Fulbright Scholar at the University of Exeter\, UK\, for the 2021–2022 academic year pursuing the art/science collaboration Our Disappearing Darkness and Recreating True Night with nocturnal ecologist Dr. Kevin Gaston. Learn more about MJ and her work here. \nCost: $10. Space limited. Proceeds to benefit RCWMS \nRegister  below.

SUMMARY:Ministry of Black Women's Self Care\, May\, 2024 - with Kim Gaubault (via Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:Kim Gaubault recognizes that self-care is often the component that remains a form of intervention (after the break or the medical emergency) rather than a preventative measure. When we allow our bodies\, minds and/or spirits to break down in the course of doing this work\, we are not only putting ourselves at risk but we are putting at risk the integrity of the work for which we are laboring. This work is a work of self-love\, communal love\, Womanist Ethicism\, it is multi-generational\, multicultural and is not finite\, but is instead as infinite as the beauty in the divinity that is Blackness. Come and share in this life’s work! This program is specifically designed to offer practical tools for everyday self-care to Black women-identified individuals doing all forms of ministry\, in church and community. \nMay: Under the Influence: Ancestral Knowledge and Discerning Our Truth\nJune: Embodying the Exhale: Breathing as an Act of Resistance \nLeader: Kimberly Gaubault (McCrae) is an intentional lover of humanity and actively lives the self-care life about which she teaches and advocates. Her personal philosophy of interpersonal interaction is\, “If I’ve not positively influenced someone everywhere I’ve gone\, I’ve not walked in my purpose.” \nCost: $10\, $25\, or $40 \nper session. Choose the price that fits your budget. \nRegister for May below. \nRegister for June: HERE. \nRegistrants will receive a Zoom link in the automated ticket confirmation.

SUMMARY:Playing with Shape and Color: Painting with Debra Wuliger
DESCRIPTION:Have you been longing to paint freely but the white canvas and choosing which paints to use feels like a mountain too high to climb?  Sign up for “Playing With Shape and Color”\, where artist Debra Wuliger will guide you to create an abstract shape design on a 9×12 inch canvas board by following her prompts.
