Ruby D. Little Artists Preschool—Inspiring and stimulating young minds through process based arts experiences.

Greetings to All.

First Friday is always a great time in

Multnomah Village, but this May 2, two great

events are going to be worth checking out.

The MAC Youth Arts Show from 5-7pm will

be a great family event (page 2). Then for the

grown-ups we are having a storytelling event

Truth Be Told (page 21). We hope you’ll join us!

Thanks to grants from the Regional Arts and Culture Council and

the Oregon Arts Commission, we are developing final design and business plans for the Arts Cottages. This summer we’ll begin

developing MAC’s woodworking cottage we support from four local

woodworking/turning/carving groups. And we’ve welcomed Print

Arts Northwest as our newest tenant. More to come in the fall!

StorytellingAges18&Up

Love to write but don’t feel so sure about talking in person? Love telling stories but not sure what to do with a blank page? You can do both. Whether you want to write memoir, do a great interview, pitch your book project, create a play, or simply give your grandchildren (or parents!) the stories they should know, this is the class for you.

WritingforTransformation&healingAges16&Up

Writing can be a remarkable tool for restoration and healing. In times of personal upheaval, grief, stress or transition, writing can be a vehicle for change while it also becomes art, something separate from us, touching and assisting others in the process. Whether you have written all your life or never written before, you can transform difficult life struggles into wonderful stories, poems, creative vignettes or memoir.

CreatingVelocityAges18&Up

Imagine sitting at the airport on the hood of your car, watching a plane take off and feeling the fast and faster moving air against your cheek, hair, and eyes. That’s velocity, and fine pieces of prose and poetry can create this same effect. Read others’ work, write your own, and get swept up in the energy of fine writing while observing the physics of it as well. All genres. Some experience recommended.

1007478 Th. 7 - 9 pm Jul. 24 – Aug 14 $68 [4 classes] Judith Pulman

Recast&RevisionAges18&Up

A single detail, use of tense, description, or approach can entirely change the feel of a piece of writing. Experiment with others’ completed pieces by casting each piece with a particular difference. Watch how one strong choice can strengthen the overall piece of writing, and bring this back to your own work. All genres.

1007480 Sat. 10 am - 3 pm Aug. 16 $70 [1 class] Kate Carroll de Gutes & Judith Pulman

“We see achievement as purposeful and monolithic, like the sculpting of a massive tree

trunk that has first to be brought from the forest and then shaped by long labor to assert the artist’s

vision, rather than something crafted from odds and ends, like a patchwork quilt, and lovingly

used to warm different nights and bodies.” —Mary Catherine Bateson

“Exercise the writing muscle

every day, even if it is only a

letter, notes, a title list,

a character sketch,

a journal entry.

Writers are like dancers,

like athletes.

Without that exercise,

the muscles seize up.”

—Jane Yolen
