Dec 14: Permission to Care.
Permission to Care. Our goal is to explore how rules, policies, and systems that are meant to protect us can sometimes unintentionally block acts of care in our communities. I’m thinking we’ll touch on examples like food sharing, temporary shelters, civic engagement, and volunteer projects, and invite participants to reflect on when rules help, when they hinder, and how people step up to act courageously despite barriers. Facilitated by Miranda Bachman.
Dec 14: Visual Voices Artist - Connie Burket
Visual Voices Artist. Connie Burket entered the professional workforce as an arts educator in 1986, serving for five years as Education Director for Salina Arts & Humanities and for twenty years as Director of the Kansas Alliance for Arts Education. Prior to that, she was a homemaker and community volunteer for nineteen years. During those years, her weaving was included in several juried exhibits, and she taught creative movement workshops for schools and arts organizations. She is motivated by a strong belief that every child should have access to the creative, cultural, cognitive, and community-building benefits of art, music, dance, and drama. Connie’s work includes drawing and painting in a variety of media, collage, handmade books, textiles, and 3-dimensional constructions. She enjoys and appreciates the problem-solving aspects of making both design-based and idea-based art and likes to experiment with a wide variety of techniques and processes. Fascinated by the ways that principles of design—such as pattern, contrast, balance, repetition, and movement—translate to human behavior and social systems, Connie continually tries to meet the challenge of effectively expressing those interconnections in her artwork.
