On Wednesday February 7 from 5-8pm, we are pleased to welcome back the ladies from the Heart of Ruth Mission. This caring organization works diligently to take care of the children who call Rainbow House Children's Home their home. Heart of Ruth has a goal of building a transition home for the older children. According to Kenyan law, any child who lives in a Children’s Home must leave when they turn 18. At 18 years old children get their National ID and are no longer considered children. At this age most students are not completed high school and cannot stand on their own two feet. These children come from previous lives full of hurt, instability and destitution. At Rainbow House many of them experienced what love and a stable family meant for the very first time. Heart of Ruth Mission wants to continue that stability by building a safe haven for them to transition into adulthood. This home is being built on land next to Rainbow House and the young adults will live there until their secondary/ post-secondary education is complete and they are in a position where they can provide for themselves. Heart of Ruth Mission has a goal of stopping the cycle of poverty one child at a time, and building this house is essential to meeting this very important goal.

Daniel Romano’s Ancient Shapes is the sound of punk rock, power pop, and psychedelic garage. It’s a solo recording project and a ripping and well-dressed live band. It’s a collage of spontaneous poetry and repurposed graphic design. The foul debris of late capitalism fuels alien engines. A hummingbird sits on barbed wire. Flowers bloom between the cracks. Insects crawl across the moon. Hopelessness and hope form a perfect sphere. Doors open at 7:30pm Kate Maki and Fred Squire perform at 8:30pm Tommy & the Commies at 9:30pm Ancient Shapes at 10:20pm Tickets are $12 advance/ $15 at the door if available. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIU9hmPRk94 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfTrn7lPdVA

Come on out and have fun). Gallery hours: Wed–Fri 11am–2pm, Sat 12–4 pm or by appointment Admission is free but donations are welcome. Have you wondered what other people in your community collect? Many have personal collections: some are inherited; some have developed over the years beginning childhood; and others have just started their collections from seemingly nowhere. We’re giving you a glimpse into three people’s collections from Sudbury, Ontario: • Leesa Bringas (Cambrian’s Open Studio technician / Instructor in Design and Visual Arts) featuring a wide range of Betsey Johnson fashion (NYC designer) and ephemera from the 60s through the late 2000s; • Richard Neufeld (Instructor and Coordinator for Cambrian’s Art Foundations & Design and Visual Art programs and Cambrian alumni) featuring handcrafted masks by Bob Basset (Ukrainian Art Studio created by brothers Serhii and Oleg Petrov) + additional items; and • Nadine Olivier, alumna of Cambrian’s Public Relations program (graduate certificate) featuring Lolita fashion, a Japanese street fashion. Each personal collection intersects art, fashion, design and popular culture. Viewers will be treated to a visual display of their collections as well as information about the items, if and when they wear their collected items and overall why they collect. Curator/personal collector lead tours & discussions: Sat Feb 10, 12–1pm: Leesa Bringas will discuss her collection of Betsey Johnson fashion from the 60s through the late 2000s.
