WILD PINK is a group show about the natural and cultural relationship of the ancient color PINK. There is certainly no dearth of pink in the natural world or in human culture. We accessorize, cosmeticize, gender-ize and interiorize to the point of being ‘tickled pink’. In the animal and floral world pink as hue and shade exists multifold. Whether to shock, protest or code the millennials, pink has survived the test of time. This show examines the fluid origins of PINK in ‘natural’ and/or ‘cultural’ contexts. This is open media, interdisciplinary, multimedia, installation, all contemporary crafts and design arts in two/three dimensions for the wall and floor.
Reception & Artist talks: Sept. 26th, 5-7pm

Experience the Magic & Power of Four Gongs during a free gong bath on Friday afternoon, September 20 — with me, Gong Master Bridget Stone!
This is a free event that I call “OPEN GONG.” The gong is for everyone, and it doesn’t always have to be experienced in the formal setting of a sound healing event!
Time: I start playing at 5pm and will stop at 6:30pm. You may arrive and depart freely and at any time!
Location: The Lareau Park/Swimming Hole on Route 100 in Waitsfield
Suggestions: Wear comfortable and warm clothing, bring a yoga mat, eye covering, blanket or chair to sit/lay on

The gong is the guardian of the seed sound of the Universe — OM. One of the oldest instruments on the planet, a masterfully played gong will lower brain wave activity and launch you into deep relaxation, subconscious realms, and sublime dreamstates. The benefits of a sound bath include: healing the physical and emotional bodies, resetting the body’s electromagnetic field, a decrease in stress and anxiety, relief of physical ailments, increased clarity and vision, and more.
