|
Join me, an experienced docent, on a tour of this great exhibition sampling the works of the world renowned Columbus artist, Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson (1940-2015). This survey of her work is a reflection of the vast estate that was bequeathed to the Columbus Museum of Art. In "Raggin’ On: Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson’s House and Journals" Aminah combines traditional art materials with found objects and everyday materials such as buttons, cloth, leather, twigs, shells, and music box workings to create magical two- and three-dimensional works of art. This promises to be a fun exhibit to tour together! The tour will take approximately one hour after which you will be able to visit on your own. This tour is offered again on September 20. | 6 | 2 | 20 | N | N | N | ||

| Vietnamese Dinner & Slides (was 9/12) |
| Join us for a evening of Vietnamese food. We will feature the food we most enjoyed on our recent trip to Vietnam, and as long as Saraga stays in business, we should be able to recreate most of them. (We also bought back some special ingredients.) So, expect fruit smoothies, iced chocolate drink, make-your-own fresh (vegetarian or shrimp) spring rolls with dipping sauces, mango or papaya salad with banana flower, glass noodles with vegetables, a fish dish, morning glory and mixed mushroom medley. Dessert will be tropical fruit salad, coconut peanut candy and black sesame candy. Bring a jacket since the forecast is for cooler evening temperatures. We'll finish with some time around the fire pit, and we'll send you home with a slideshow CD featuring our best photos from our 2019-2020 trip. | 6 | 0 | 25 | 10/17/20 4:30 PM | Y | Y | N | |

Join me, an experienced docent, on a tour of this great exhibition sampling the works of the world renowned Columbus artist, Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson (1940-2015).

In "Raggin’ On: Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson’s House and Journals" Aminah combines traditional art materials with found objects and everyday materials such as buttons, cloth, leather, twigs, shells, and music box workings to create magical two- and three-dimensional works of art. This promises to be a fun exhibit to tour together! The tour will take approximately one hour after which you will be able to visit on your own. | 6 | 1 | 20 | N | N | N | ||

|
This sport is like a road rally in the forest. You are given a detailed topographic map (and maybe a compass) with several control points indicated. You follow the map, reaching all the control points, in order, going as fast or as slow as you like. I have experience teaching Orienteering from my Boy Scout days. Our local O-club presents several O-meets a year, giving elementary instruction beforehand. I would like to take you to one where we will have some instruction before we hit the trails. After the O-meet we will find a place to eat and compare notes. I will cover any entrance fees and the lunch afterward. There are many O-meets on the schedule so we'll arrange a time that all of us can go. See you on the trail. | 3 | 0 | 15 | N | N | N | ||

| Enjoy a light summer dinner of delicious shrimp scampi, pasta primavera with fresh summer veggies, and with key lime pie for dessert. Delicious food and interesting conversation. The best part is that Bob and Judy will match your donation with a contribution to support the family from Honduras that Just North is sheltering. Maria, Juan, toddler and infant are seeking to make Columbus their home. They had steady jobs and a home they loved. But they faced credible death threats which forced them to flee suddenly, leaving everything. They walked more than 90 days from Honduras to Mexico and waited months to cross the border through a legal port of entry. Maria gave birth shortly after entering the country. Forty-eight hours later they boarded a hot, crowded bus. When they reached Columbus they had nowhere to turn. Their case for legal Asylum is strong but they need support for counsel, application fees and daily living until they secure a legal work permit and a home of their own. | 8 | 0 | 25 | 8/29/20 6:30 PM | N | N | N | |
