SUMMARY:David Borofka talks about his new novel The End of Good Intentions
DESCRIPTION:Writer David Borofka will discuss his new novel “The End of Good Intentions\,” from 7 to 8 p.m. Monday\, Oct. 23\, at Bloomsbury Books\, 290 E. Main St.\, Ashland. \nSet between the mid-1970s and today\, the novel moves back and forth through the turbulence of recent American history\, charting the course of characters such as Michael Wayte\, the pre-ministerial student who becomes the owner of a foothill bar; Leah Green\, the Jewish student who finds herself a stranger in a strange Christian environment; Walter Book\, the gay English professor\, who doesn’t know he’s gay; and Eivar Mortenson\, whose actions at the beginning of the novel become the catalyst for all that is to come. \nIn “The End of Good Intentions\,” David Borofka examines the gap between desire and emptiness\, conviction and extremism\, those who believe absolutely in the certitude of their perspective and those who live on the outer margins of doubt and uncertainty.

Millions have died from COVID-19\, and social\, cultural\, and economic life has been curtailed everywhere. With vaccinations accelerating\, life in many places is on the road back to normal. But before life can feel truly normal\, we must memorialize the devastation of the past year. Our response is an initiative called This Moment In Time. \nWorking with musicians and cultural partners around the world\, massive gongs will appear in public spaces on June 21\, the summer solstice. At noon local time\, a celebrated local musician will play the gong for one uninterrupted hour\, marking the incalculable loss of the past year. Afterwards\, the public will be invited to come up to each gong and play it themselves\, hearing the unfathomable mystery of the sound\, experiencing the cathartic feeling of hitting something massive\, and feeling the deep therapeutic vibrations in their bodies. \nAround the world\, gongs traditionally mark a moment in time – whether announcing Napoleon’s funeral procession\, the arrival of a Chinese dignitary\, the start of a sumo wrestling contest\, or the serving of dinner in a British mansion. For everyone joining or witnessing this event\, This Moment In Time will mark the losses of the pandemic\, but also the beginning of a new era in sight.” — Make Music Day \nLooking back\, we know things took a very different turn in the summer of 2021 as the Omicron variant took hold and delayed our “road back to normal\,” which we are still on in many ways. The feeling of hope then is still very powerful now in my own memory of the time\, of composing and performing This Moment In Time\, and in continuing to share it as a beacon of hope and an expression of that memory. One of my most inspirational and dear friends\, renowned artist Betty LaDuke\, was inspired by the performance and the round shape of the large gong\, and immediately began her Turtle Wisdom series of works\, which now number nearly 30\, and have in turn inspired me to compose a new work\, Full Circle: Turtle Wisdom\, intended for projected artwork/graphic scores (Betty’s Turtles) and gong orchestra\, to be premiered in Fall\, 2024. What an honor and delight for me! — Terry Longshore

SUMMARY:Rogue World wassailing open rehearsals
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wanted to sing for fun? Have you ever wanted to discover your singing voice? Rehearse with us for Rogue World Wassailing this Dec. 1 and 16! \nRehearsals are held 2 to 4 p.m. Saturdays\, Oct. 28 to Nov. 25\, at Aryze Hot Yoga Studio\, 330 Oak St.\, Ashland. \nRuth Hoffecker\, of Ashland School of Uncovering the Voice\, brings her two major passions together for this project: traditional folk songs that celebrate the turning of the seasons and creating a singing community where all people feel welcome. Folk traditions like Wassailing were born out of a time when all people sang as part of daily life. We invite you to come experience singing in community\, lifting each other up with our voices\, making a joyful noise! \nWe will meet for five weeks to learn winter\, Christmas\, New Year’s and traditional Wassailing songs. Each session will begin with gentle exercises to warm up our voices.\nWith music in our hearts and rhythms in our feet\, we will serenade the community\, first in two public street events\, and later going door to door offering blessings of health and happiness for the New Year. \nAll singing experience levels are welcome – including folks who have always thought ‘I can’t sing.’ \nAll ages are welcome. All voices are welcome. Participation levels of all types are welcome. (Singing everything\, singing just the choruses\, clapping along\, humming\, etc.) \nYou don’t have to attend every rehearsal. Attend as many or as few as you’d like. \nParticipation is free.

SUMMARY:Sunday Worship: Skulls\, Bonfires\, Butterflies\, Tricks\, and Treats
DESCRIPTION:At this time of year\, we encounter stories that encourage us to imagine freedom even in death; to acknowledge our own losses and grief\, but imagine that something of those we love goes on: in memory\, in story\, in this world or another. You are encouraged to bring a picture of an ancestor or loved one who has died to share with the congregation. \nWe will explore the wisdom of these traditions to help us accept and face death rather than avoid and ignore it. \n“This was a liminal moment in the calendar\, a time between two worlds\, between two phases of the year\, when worshippers were about to cross a boundary but hadn’t yet done so. Samhain was a way of marking that ambiguous moment when you didn’t know who you were about to become\, or what the future would hold. It was a celebration of limbo.” – Katherine May \nAttend in person or watch live or recorded on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@roguevalleyunitarianuniver8871
