The TRANSITION ART BRIGADE is currently meeting twice monthly at Sequoia Village Cohousing. We have created a Transition Style event banner for the August 21, the event date, and are now ready to create some short performance pieces for the summer leading up to and at the event. Performance artists, musicians, poets needed for these.

Visual artists are invited to submit Transition-related art to be shown at several exhibit locations during the month of August. Recycled materials, art from trash, or topics that relate to community-building, relocalization, sustainability, resource conservation, etc., are solicited. Join us at the above time or be in touch with Satri Pencak, at spencak@yahoo.com for info on entering the exhibits. Professionals, amateurs, youngsters are all invited to participate.

If afternoon meetings do not work for you, and if you're interested in participating, please email Alexandra at ahart[at]sonic.net or phone 707-827-3781.

We are also looking for help in managing the group details -- need volunteers!

A Wisdom Council Discussion Group of Transition Sebastopol 

Calling All Elders, Earth Elders, Wannabe Elders, Soon-to-become Elders, or Interested Baby Boomers on up! 


The Elder Salon is a nonhierarchical circle of peers. We’ll introduce the discussion with some thoughts from an elder voice or thought-provoking instigator to kick off our own discovery of what it is WE think and believe about the topic; what WE want and need now and in our future; what WE think should be the course of action and attitudes as we progress into and through our older years

WHY: There are a lot of new ideas about aging, staying youthful in body and spirit, and our role in society and local life. What have our generational contributions been and what is left undone? What are our mistakes and triumphs?

with Trathen Heckman and Julia Bystrova

We are living in a time of unprecedented change. These changes can impact us in many ways, affecting our relationships, work, financial stability, home, and our physical and mental health. To adapt and thrive, we need to radically elevate how we live our potential through mindful daily choices. In this workshop you will learn new tools and practices that help you stay clear, organized and at peace as you take action on what matters most in your life and community. Amidst guided meditation and movement exercises, we will discuss ways to keep and reclaim our center amidst the significant shifts occurring. We’ll develop a personal purpose statement and learn leadership practices and empowering tools that help you access inner power, aligned with your values and beliefs. In this way, you can hone your inner compass to navigate change while building personal resilience and staying inspired and in action towards living your vision.
