Abstract^2
2025-02-15 13:00 - 17:00, 2025-02-14 13:00 - 17:00 | Mad River Valley Arts, 5031 Main Street #2 Village Square, Waitsfield, 05673
Mad River Valley Arts (Mad Arts) presents Lisa Dimondstein, Julie Parker and Sandra Shenk in Abstract^2.
These three women photographers are dedicated to radicalizing the photo as image.
They abstract from a pre-existing abstract sculpture with the aim to capture the essential properties and relationships of the original abstract concept, and in doing so they remove themselves from any context or specific content or representation. The process involves eliminating any reference to real-world objects or situations and to focus only on the inherent structures and relationships.
The Cold Hollow Sculpture Park, in Enosburg Falls, has over 70 large abstract sculptures by renowned artist David Stromeyer. The photographs of Lisa, Julie and Sandra
are inventive abstractions from David’s sculpture. They utilize an in-camera multiple exposure technique to explore the intricate relationship between color, texture, movement, line and form.

Participants will learn how to care for trees to maximize their fruit production and health while helping the town with this important stewardship project. While we work, participants can also learn about the property and the long-term management of this unique tract of land that features expansive views of both the Green Mountains and the Northfield Range. At the end of the workshop, participants will be emailed a PDF summary of the methods learned.
Participants should bring any pruning tools they have, such as loppers, and small pull saws or folding saws, as limited loaner tools will be available. Ladders are also needed.
To register, please visit https://forms.gle/D7PxxdX1Zfuib1TD8 or call Harvey Blake at 802-279-4751. A suggested donation of $40 per person will help support the property and its ongoing stewardship needs.

Sunnyside Double Speed Dating
2025-02-14 12:00 - 17:00
This Valentine’s Day, love will be in the air—and on the slopes. Join us for the first ever Speed Dating event on the Sunnyside Double chairlift. Whether you’re a serious skier or just looking to meet someone fun and adventurous, this Valentine’s Day Speed Dating event is the perfect way to make connections with people who share your enthusiasm for skiing at Mad River Glen.
Participants will meet fellow singles for a series of high-altitude, lift-assisted speed dates. Set against the stunning winter landscape of the Green Mountains, the event invites singles of all ages to hop on the Sunnyside Double chairlift and engage in quick, exciting conversations with new potential matches. Between the fresh mountain air and the unique setting, this is no ordinary speed dating experience—it’s one you’ll remember for years to come.
Throughout the event, singles will enjoy brief conversations while riding the Sunnyside Double chairlift up the mountain. If the vibes are good singles can ride to the top of the Sunnyside Double and ski back to the base area together, if the vibes are off skiers can disembark from the chairlift at Mid-Station and return to the base to find another potential match. After each ride participants will rotate to meet a new date, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to make multiple connections. Following the ski day singles are encouraged to meet up in Stark’s Pub for a social hour where they can continue to mingle, share stories, and enjoy some live music.
The event offers a fun, relaxed atmosphere where attendees can bond over their shared love of the outdoors and perhaps find something more—whether it’s a new friendship or the start of a romance.
