SUMMARY:Community Fitness: Tai Chi & Qigong at the River
DESCRIPTION:Offered by Immortal Tree Qigong. Each hour-long Tai Chi & Qigong session will start with breathing exercises\, warm up\, and gentle movements. You will then be guided through flowing movements that are part of the Tai Chi 24 form mixed with short standing meditations. We will end with a slightly longer guided standing (or sitting) meditation. This should leave a few minutes to answer questions or discuss any insights. Qigong and Tai Chi don’t require any special skills (other than breathing) or equipment (other than your body).

SUMMARY:Threads of History: Quilts by Carolyn Mazloomi
DESCRIPTION:June 12-September 12\, 2026 \nThreads of History: Quilts by Carolyn Mazloomi is a landmark solo exhibition by award-winning artist\, historian\, and curator Dr. Carolyn Mazloomi. Now an octogenarian\, Mazloomi remains one of the most visionary leaders in contemporary quilting\, widely recognized for her lifelong efforts to elevate African American quilt traditions. Her striking black-and-white quilts memorialize the lives and legacies of African American freedom fighters\, capturing resilience\, resistance\, and remembrance through bold imagery and layered narrative. Originally trained as an aerospace engineer\, Mazloomi shifted her focus in the 1980s to advocate for African American quilt artists whose contributions had long been marginalized. Through her scholarship\, mentorship\, and the founding of the Women of Color Quilters Network\, she has transformed the cultural landscape\, bringing international recognition to quilting as both fine art and historical record. Her extraordinary impact has been recognized with numerous honors\, including the Bess Lomax Hawes NEA National Heritage Fellowship\, a United States Artists Fellowship\, and an American Craft Council Honorary Fellowship. Her work is held in major collections\, including the Smithsonian Institution and the American Folk Art Museum. Opening Reception: June 12\, 2026\, 6-8 p.m.

SUMMARY:Blue and Beyond: a Cyanotype Workshop with Suzi Hyden
DESCRIPTION:Curious about cyanotype? Join us for an introduction to this historic photographic process\, where light and chemistry come together to create striking\, image-based prints. \nIn this hands-on workshop\, participants will explore both foundational and expanded cyanotype techniques. We’ll be working with high-quality Hahnemühle 300gsm watercolor paper and pre-treated fabric sheets\, with a focus on elevating the process through hand-coating and experimental toning. Using materials like tea\, coffee\, and red wine\, we’ll shift traditional blue tones into a range of sepia\, slate\, and deep eggplant hues. \nWhether you’re new to cyanotype or looking to push the process further\, this session offers a supportive environment to experiment and explore. \nLogistics & Flow: \nThis workshop will follow a 3-hour staggered format to allow for movement between processes. Indoors\, we’ll use a dimmed area for hand-coating paper and set up a toning station during the final hour. Outdoors\, we’ll take advantage of natural sunlight for exposures\, along with a rinse station and temporary drying line for finished prints. \nDate: Saturday\, June 13\, 12-3PM \nIn the event of rain on June 13\, the workshop will be held on the backup date of June 14 from 12–3 PM. \nREGISTRATION IS OPEN UNTIL JUNE 6. Please register in advance to secure your spot. \nLocation: \nThe Dayton Society of Artists \n48 High Street  \nDayton\, Ohio. 45403 \nCost: \nNon-Members – $75 \nMembers – $55 \nPre-registration Required \nAbout your Instructor: \nSuzi Hyden is a cyanotype artist working in rural Champaign County\, Ohio\, whose work celebrates the environment by combining elements from nature and repurposed materials. She uses local botanicals to create her cyanotypes\, commonly known as sun printing or blueprinting. She incorporates recycled vintage fabrics\, reused papers\, and found objects as the substrates and framing for her cyanotypes. She exhibits throughout Ohio and offers workshops to children and adults.
