SUMMARY:SLO Classical Academy Presents\, (Un) Common Arts
DESCRIPTION:San Luis Obispo Classical Academy (SLOCA) is hosting our annual mini symposium\, an interactive one-day event open to the community to learn about a hand-selected topic. This year\, our theme is “(Un)Common Arts: Rediscovering the Simple Things in Life\,” and we’re excited to host guest speaker Chris Hall\, author of Common Arts Education and founder of “Always Learning Education.” This event is open to parents\, educators\, and any other community member interested in learning what the common arts are and why they matter! \nThe common arts got their name from the fact that they are ‘common’: skills by which everyone meets their basic\, embodied needs in the world. We need to eat\, have shelter\, heal\, trade\, find our way around\, and more in order to keep going. And yet\, they are also UN-common today. We outsource many of these to others\, trading money for goods and services. In so doing\, we experience convenience\, but we lose some baseline skills and proficiencies\, as well as a deeply-rooted connection to the natural world and the orders of things. \nJoin us for the morning\, an exclusive VIP lunch with our guest speaker\, the afternoon\, or any combination of the three as we rediscover the value of the common arts and practice techniques to integrate them into our everyday lives. \nIntroduction to Common Arts \nSession 1: Home + Hearth \nVIP Fireside Chat + Lunch \nSession 2: Simple Repairs \nQ+A with Chris Hall \nVisit the website linked below for more information and tickets!

SUMMARY:Every Brilliant Thing
DESCRIPTION:Come out to the Sverson Theatre select days between October 9th and 26th to see the Pacific Conservatory Theatre perform: Every Brilliant Thing! \nHeartache\, resilience\, and the joys that make life worth living. \n1. Ice cream. 2. Kung Fu movies. 3. The color yellow. 4. Laughing so hard you shoot milk out your nose. That’s how you start the list of every brilliant thing that makes life worth living when you’re six and your Mom finds it hard to be happy.

Told through a unique blend of storytelling\, stand-up\, and audience interaction\, Every Brilliant Thing is a tender\, hilarious\, and immersive experience. Based on true and fictional stories\, Duncan MacMillan’s beloved play celebrates the power of resilience\, the intricacy of mental health\, and the extraordinary impact of ordinary joys. \nEVERY BRILLIANT THING\nBy Duncan Macmillan\nWith Jonny Donahoe \nFor more information\, or to get your tickets\, please see the Pacific Conservatory Theatre website linked below!
