SUMMARY:Wellness Wednesday: Mindfulness Meditations
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our weekly mindfulness meditations. Whether you are new to meditation or already have experience we welcome you to this community sit in the beautiful A-Frame Theater of the Wende Museum’s Glorya Kaufman Community Center \nYou do not have to join all sessions but can join as your schedule allows. Each session is followed by complimentary garden refreshments and an optional movement class. \nWhat is mindfulness? Mindfulness is being fully present to your life instead of being on autopilot. Our mind tends to rehash the past and to rehearse the future. There is nothing wrong with that except that it does it too much and it keeps us from being with what is actually happening right in this moment. We can feel like life is passing us by and we miss a lot of good moments with family and friends\, in nature and just throughout the day. When we are present we become better listeners and observers and will make better choices\, big and small. People who regularly practice mindfulness meditation report overall stress levels going down and being able to deal with whatever comes their way in a better\, healthier way. They also feel more connected and more joyful. \nWe practice this through mindfulness meditation where we train the mind to stay with an anchor\, like the sensations of the breath. Eventually the mind will calm down and so will the body. We learn tools to be with a busy mind\, challenging emotions\, and even physical pain. We can access peace\, calm and joy that arises independently of what’s going on in our lives at this time. \nTeacher Bio: \nChristiane Wolf is an internationally known mindfulness and Insight (Vipassana) meditation teacher. Originally from Berlin\, Germany\, she is a longtime proud resident of Culver City where her three children attended (or still attend) CCMS and CCHS. \nChristiane was trained as an OB/GYN in Germany but pivoted to not only practicing mindfulness meditation but then teaching it\, mainly through InsightLA. \nShe was trained and mentored by Trudy Goodman\, Jack Kornfield\, Jon Kabat-Zinn\, Gil Fronsdal and others. \nChristiane is the author of Outsmart Your Pain – Mindfulness and Self-Compassion to Help You Leave Chronic Pain Behind and the coauthor of A Clinician’s Guide to Teaching Mindfulness\, a classic training manual for mindfulness teachers. \nCheck www.christianewolf.com for more info. \nAn ADA-accessible entrance to the Glorya Kaufman Community Center is available through the gate from the parking lot at 10858 Culver Blvd. Limited floor space is first come\, first serve. Please arrive early as RSVP does not guarantee admission to this free program.

SUMMARY:Artistic Interpretations of the Cosmos
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a presentation at the crossroads of art and the universe. How has art contributed to the dissemination of cutting-edge astronomical knowledge? What role did the visual arts play in the Space Race in the East\, the West\, and the Global South? How is the cosmos interpreted in Afrofuturist artwork? Which artworks\, according to their makers\, were created under the guidance of extraterrestrials? These topics and more will be addressed in a wide-ranging duo- presentation by the Wende’s chief curator Joes Segal and associate curator Emma Diffley. \nThe program will function as a sneak peek into our fall 2026 exhibition Competing Cosmologies and will be musically introduced by pianist\, arranger\, composer\, educator\, and film coach Liz Kinnon\, a native of Los Angeles\, who has performed all over the world with numerous artists including Dizzy Gillespie\, Andy Williams\, Barbara Morrison\, Sherwood Sledge\, Kenia\, Octavio Bailly\, and Jackie Ryan. \nImages: Lia Halloran\, The Sun Burns My Eyes Like Moons\, 2021\, Cyanotype on paper from painted negative\, acrylic\, ink\, courtesy of the artist Lia Halloran\, Andromeda\, after Mollie O’ Reilly\, 2017\, Cyanotype on paper\, from painted negative\, courtesy of the artist
