In May 2025 the Liberty Gallery features new mixed media works by Tracy Poindexter-Canton in a show titled "Vignettes & Wanderings". This is an exciting new collection of mixed media works by Tracy inspired by poetry and prose. Through layers of color, texture and form, each piece reinterprets literary moments in a visual way. Viewers are invited to explore the connections between storytelling and art, offering a fresh perspective on popular narratives and familiar themes. The First Friday Reception to Meet the Artist is May 2 from 5-8:30pm.

Edie Greene is a self-taught artist who works in many mediums including photography, fiber art and painting. She grew up in the Midwest near Chicago and made her way west over three decades, living in rural and urban settings in California, Wisconsin and Wyoming. Edie's macrame wall-hangings are inspired by the wild places she visits in the Pacific Northwest. She forages for branches in her travels and uses recycled cotton rope and wool roving to create colorful and textured landscapes. Come by PPP in the Historic Liberty Building in May to see Edie's work ~ stop by First Friday May 2nd from 5pm until 8:30 to meet Edie in person!

We will be discussing “Prodigal Summer " by Barbara Kingsolver at the May meeting.

An unlikely assassin struggles to escape a legendary bounty hunter in this breakneck fantasy debut that will grab you by the throat—perfect for fans of Joe Abercrombie, R.F. Kuang, and Christopher Buehlman.

Immerse yourself in a transformative 90-minute sound healing journey designed to bring harmony to your mind, body, and soul. These intimate experiences are far more than simply receiving sound — they are a sacred opportunity to reconnect with your inner self, quiet the noise of everyday life, and embrace the healing energy that resides within you.

This offering invites you to come with intention — to show up fully present and open to the experience. Whether your intention is clarity, release, or a deeper connection to your spirit, this is a space to tune in and listen to what your soul is asking for. Sound becomes the guide, but it’s your willingness to connect that opens the path to healing.

Spaces are intentionally limited to maintain the intimacy and depth of the experience, so reserve your spot today. Allow yourself to pause, reset, and step back into life feeling grounded, refreshed, and aligned.

The title of this talk: "A Spiritual Revolution: The Quest to Experience God"

The speaker is Christian Science practitioner and teacher Giulia Nesi Tetreau, CSB, a member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship.
