We will bring you an intimate look into the heart, mind and body of female preoccupation. We have assembled an exciting cast of local, power-house ladies of the theatre to share this show about matters of the heart and matters of the closet with you. This is a One Night Only Event, so put on your favorite skirt, or high heels and join us in what is sure to be an unforgettable evening.” Seats can be reserved by clicking HERE.

ARt from the Heart
The Studio Around the Cornerand students from Westchester Community College’s Kathryn W. DavisGlobal Community Program Scholars are partnering to create a program to promote self-expression through multimedia art. The Art Ambassadorscreated “Art from the Heart” hoping to reach a diverse group of people who live in the town of Brewster and who normally do not have access to artistic resources. The Art Ambassadorswill provide a safe place for participants to portray themselves through the use of artistic tools.
The focus of the “Art from the Heart” program is on the inherent therapeutic value of the process of creating art. Generating art taps into what cannot be expressed verbally. While the final product is valued, it is in the creative process where self-expression and meaning lies. Although making art to most appears as another form of recreation, the Art Ambassadors realize it can be very meaningful and want to share this gift with others.
TheArt Ambassadors will conduct a free series of six bilingual (English and Spanish) art classes for members of the Brewster community. Each session will take place at The Studio Around the Cornerin Brewster, New York. Meetings will be held every Saturday from January 12 to February 23 at 3 pm. The program is free for all residents of Brewster and neighborhoods nearby, and art supplies and refreshments will be provided by the Art Ambassadors from Westchester Community College.
Call us today at (845) 363-8330 or email us at info@culturalartsco.com to book a seat in the program.

Sound Bath Meditation Workshop
The sound bath is an experience where high vibration and percussive instruments such as gongs and Tibetan bowls are played in an intentional way to guide you into a state of deep relaxation. During the bath you may experience a calming of your active mind, expanded states of awareness, creative breakthroughs or simply a deep sense of calm. The bath is best received in a passive manner where recipients are encouraged to lie on the floor; eyes closed and simply let the sounds resonate through their body.
We are a diverse group of dynamic musicians and sound healers who perform our baths with the intention to create community and a sanctuary from the demands of modern life.
Please bring a yoga mat, pillows and blanket for maximum comfort while lying on the floor. We will have a few chairs available for those that are not be able to lie comfortably on the floor.
Please arrive 10-15 minutes early to allow time to find a spot and settle in before the performance begins. Late arrivals may not be accommodated so as not to disrupt the event once it has begun.
Join us for Sound Bath on March 2, 16, and 30 at 7pm at The Studio Around the Corner 67 Main Street, Suite 101, Brewster, NY 10509.
Cost for this event is $25 at the door, cash only please.
