SUMMARY:WordxWord: INCLUSION
DESCRIPTION:Over the course of 3 months\, WordXWord has asked poets of any ilk to apply their creative energy to three fraught words – diversity\, equity\, and (now) inclusion. \nAs we wrap up this series with INCLUSION\, we recognize that it is difficult to pull these 3 words completely apart as they lean on each other for support. In addition\, it seems unnecessary/counter productive to put a wall around inclusion. For this final event in the series anything even tangentially related to any or all things DEI is welcome. This is as close to an open mic as you’re likely to see from us.

SUMMARY:Jacobs Pillow: Parading through Culture
DESCRIPTION:Afro Latin Jazz and Soul Experience – Community Residency with Sekou McMiller & Friends\nParading through Culture: A Community Gathering about Celebration\, Ritual\, and Movement\nCommon Room\, Zion Lutheran Church | 7-8:30pm\nThis dynamic session invites participants to explore the many ways family\, community\, and culture express themselves through celebration\, ritual\, and parade.

This dynamic series of movement workshops\, listening sessions\, and dance parties\, led by Sekou and his collaborators Adriel Flete\, Khary Kamau\, and Miriam Gallardo\, will immerse participants in themes from his upcoming premiere Urban Love Suite\, which will be performed during Week 6 of the Festival.

Participants of all ages are invited to join in the fun\, learn\, and celebrate through movement and sound.

SUMMARY:Christa Joy and The Honeybees
DESCRIPTION:Christa Joy is the band leader of the Western Mass based\, “Christa Joy and the Honeybees.” Americana with a classic country flair\, the group includes Lisa Marie Ellingsen (lead guitar)\, Tim Bowles (pedal steel)\, Jason Smith (drums) and Tom LeBeau (bass). The songwriter’s fourth full length collection was released in August 2024 at CitySpace in Easthampton\, MA. The self-titled project\, Christa Joy and the Honeybees\, paints a versatile picture of the group’s talents—ranging from kitschy humorous gems like “God Gave Me Two Babies” and “Omens\,” to emotional ballads like “Time and Luck” and the sparser indie flavor of “Again and Again.” Also included on the project\, Producer Grant Wicks arranged a countrified cover of Pixies “Here Comes Your Man\,” a shout out to local hero Black Francis. Christa Joy is expected to release a solo EP of songs written during the early months of the pandemic in early 2025.

SUMMARY:Layered Trace Monotype Printmaking
DESCRIPTION:Trace monotype is a fun\, direct method of printing that does not require much (if any) specialized equipment. In this workshop we’ll explore several approaches to trace monotype\, discuss ink modification\, and explore mark making. As much as it is a printing technique\, this is also a fantastic exercise in being mindful and present – as it all comes down to pressure and hand. Participants are encouraged to bring their own reference imagery for tracing\, a couple copies if possible. Note: the reference image must be initially reversed if you don’t want your final print to come out backwards. \nInstructor: Ian Prishwalko\nDay & Time: Saturday\, 10:00am-12:30pm\nDates: June 14\, 2025\nLocation: Brothership Building\, Pittsfield
