SUMMARY:CAAM Screening and Panel: Artist and Mother
DESCRIPTION:Do you want to have a successful career or do you want to have children? Many women artists starting out still hear that they must choose one or the other. The KCET Artbound documentary Artist and Mother follows four artists\, Rebecca Campbell\, Andrea Chung\, Tanya Aguiñiga\, and Kenyatta A.C. Hinkle\, who defy this thinking. Not only do they juggle career and family but they have also found inspiring ways to use the materials or images of motherhood in their art. Join us for a screening of Artist and Mother followed by a panel with all four artists—three of whom have exhibited their work at CAAM—moderated by journalist Jori Finkel\, co-producer of the film.

SUMMARY:CAAM Practicing the Art of Radical Self Care
DESCRIPTION:Reclaiming Our Time: Radical Self Care Now!  \nWhen Representative Maxine Waters invoked the phrase “reclaiming my time” during a House Financial Services Committee meeting last year\, social media went ablaze. Used by the Congresswoman to demand that her questions be answered\, the phrase signaled that it was the moment for Waters—and maybe all of us—to take back our power. Radical self care is the bold act of making your quality of life primary.

All levels are welcome; bring your mats! \n11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. – inCREASE the FOLD \nMake a paper keepsake in good company throughout the day in Suzanne Edwards-Acton’s folding workshop\, which allows you to take home a reflective piece handmade by you. \n12:00 – 2:00 p.m. – Juicing Workshop and Move Workout  \nLearn from LaKeasha Fit\, chief juicing officer of 1987 Juice\, about how juicing can support a nutritious lifestyle. A sweat workshop follows to dance and energize. \n2:00 – 3:00 p.m – Mindful Awareness Meditation \nMia Sykes\, certified mindfulness facilitator and certified yoga teacher\, and Lydell Martin\, certified mindfulness facilitator\, will lead the closing lesson on mindful awareness.
