DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Faith Hendon\nDate: Tuesday\, February 21 from 7-8pm\nCost: None (FREE)\n(Register by 6pm on February 21 to receive the connection info) \nWomen with ADHD are often unseen in medical literature. Only a few studies across a broad range of journals have attempted to research how hormonal increase during the menstrual period affects ADHD severity\, and even fewer have focused on potentially how the hormonal change through menstrual cycles impacts medication efficacy or vitamin deficits. \nJoin Faith Hendon for a discussion and meta-analysis of current research within and external to the field of applied behavior analysis (ABA) focusing on ADHD and women\, with a secondary focus on cyclic (menstrual/hormonal) patterns of observable symptoms and behaviors. \nThis free talk is held in conjunction with The Unseen art exhibit at Del Ray Artisans gallery (February 3-25\, 2023). \nThe talk will be online through the Zoom platform. Registered participants will be sent the connection information via email one day in advance and approximately one hour before the talk. You may attend on a computer\, tablet\, or smartphone. \nRegister Now \nAbout the Presenter: Faith Hendon has an extensive background in technology and an established career in behavior analysis. She has been a practicing BCBA/LBA since November of 2019\, and has worked in the field of ABA since 2017. She is currently pursuing her PhD in ABA from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology\, with two published studies in behavioral journals. Faith provides current in-home services to families with autistic children and other developmental concerns requiring behavioral mitigation and education. Faith follows a modernized compassionate care approach in ABA treatment with full attention to the personhood and dignity of clients\, focusing on relabeling deficits as potential superpowers\, and helping families learn how to hone unique skills and abilities while increasing understanding of communication methods. Outside of the behavioral world\, Faith is a musical\, artistic\, Mom-Solo with 3 cats and a giant floof-dog.

SUMMARY:Creative Book Club - “The Secret Lives of Color” by Kassia St. Clair
DESCRIPTION:Book: “The Secret Lives of Color” by Kassia St. Clair\nFacilitator: Rusty Lynn\nMeeting rescheduled to Saturday\, February 11 from 10am-12pm\n(Drop-in\, set a reminder in Eventbrite) \nThe book for the first book club meeting of 2023 is The Secret Lives of Color by Kassia St. Clair (published in 2016). The book is organized around the color groups and full of very interesting research about all the colors imaginable. \nSince the book is all about colors\, and most of us have a favorite color or two\, please feel free to bring a piece of your artwork to share that uses one or more of your favorite colors to the discussion. \n“The Secret Lives of Color tells the unusual stories of seventy-five fascinating shades\, dyes\, and hues. From blonde to ginger\, the brown that changed the way battles were fought to the white that protected against the plague\, Picasso’s blue period to the charcoal on the cave walls at Lascaux\, acid yellow to kelly green\, and from scarlet women to imperial purple\, these surprising stories run like a bright thread throughout history.”—Penguin Books (Publisher) \nThe Creative Book Club meets on select Saturday mornings to discuss readings by a variety of authors. The club is free and open to all who are interested in keeping their creative muse flowing and connecting with other creative people. Future book selections will be announced on this website and in the Weekly eNews email in advance. \nIf you have questions\, please contact our book club leader Rusty Lynn at rustylynn@earthlink.net. \nFace masks are recommended inside the gallery. \n.

SUMMARY:“The Unseen” Exhibit Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:The Unseen Art Exhibit\nFebruary 3–25\, 2023\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 3 from 7–9pm\nJoin us for the opening reception of The Unseen art exhibit at Del Ray Artisans on Friday\, February 3 between 7-9pm to meet the curator\, Peter Michaels\, and the artists. Mark your calendar now or set a reminder through Eventbrite. This exhibit reveals what we typically cannot see. \nJuried by renowned scientist and artist Michal Gavish\, who recently returned from a residency in Seoul and a one-person show in New York City. She received her MFA in Painting and previously earned a PhD in Physical Chemistry. The Unseen piggybacks off Dr. Gavish’s work with microscopic structures in her art. \nCome explore the hidden\, under the surface\, microscopic\, imagined\, or dreamt that make life so much richer. Through the exhibit local artists take us to myriad places—in their minds\, their dreams\, their dives\, their experiments\, their hopes\, and their fears.  Is the work of art what the artist intended or what you perceive…or both?  After all\, as philosopher Roland Barthes exclaimed in his 1967 seminal essay “The Death of the Author\,” there isn’t an ultimate meaning.  Come experience The Unseen for yourself! \nPlus check out our upcoming programs—including the free\, online talks: The Unseen World of Extreme Diving on Wednesday\, February 1 from 7-8pm and Women with ADHD on Tuesday\, February 21 from 7-8pm held in conjunction with the exhibit. \nWhile visiting the gallery\, also note the two beautiful garden statues of the Chinese Buddhist Deities of Compassion (Guan Yin) and Longevity (Shou Lao) and purchase raffle tickets for a chance to win them.
