SUMMARY:WEBINAR: BUILDING PERSONAL RESILIENCE IN AN EVER-CHANGING WORLD

Groups and individuals also learn to align their activities with natural biorhythms to experience less stress and more flow every day.  In partnership with her clients\, Erica is putting an end to business as usual by engaging with work and life as meaningful endeavors that positively impact the world. \nCOST & CONTINUING EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS: \nISSP credential holders will earn 0.5 CEUs for attending this webinar. \nISSP Webinars are free for members and $25 for non-members.  After the webinar\, non-members will receive a discount code worth $25 off a new ISSP membership.

SUMMARY:Conscious Capitalism: Live After 5
DESCRIPTION:Becoming An Agent For Change: Tackling Wicked Problems\nWicked Problems aren’t here just for Halloween. They are the kinds of problems we see everywhere today and they are causing conflict and feelings of chaos. Wicked problems are part of a complex system and can’t be “solved”\, only continually navigated – a mindset shift for most of us. \nOne “solution” creates new problems because of the interconnectedness of the complex system.  Consider global warming or healthcare. Facing these problems requires tough choices\, mutual understanding\, genuine interactions across multiple perspectives\, and innovative approaches that also address the tensions between the different value systems. \nJoin us for this discussion on wicked problems and learn how you can facilitate positive solutions within your organization and community and become an Agent for Change. \nSnacks and beverages will be provided\, including beer and wine. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur Speaker\nMonica Bourgeau is the author of the new book The Change Code: A Practical Guide to Making a Difference in a Polarized World that will be available on Amazon in November. \nShe’s also an entrepreneur\, coach\, speaker\, and healthcare executive who leads and researches personal and organizational change. She believes we each have a duty to help leave the world a little better than we found it. Monica lives with her husband\, daughters\, and their two rescue dogs in beautiful Portland\, Oregon. Learn more about her and her new book at www.thechangecode.net. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nDate: 10/23/2019\nTime: 5:30 pm – 7:00 pm\nLocation:   Ruby Receptionists\, 805 SW Broadway\, 9th Floor\, Portland\, OR 97205 \nParking & Transportation\nStreet parking is available or catch the MAX to the Pioneer Square stop. Venue is about 1 block away on Broadway. \nPLEASE NOTE* \nPortions of this event may be filmed or photographed.  If you do not wish to be on camera\, please let us know.

SUMMARY:Ghost Net Landscape by Emily Miller
DESCRIPTION:“Ghost Net Landscape” by Emily Miller opens October 7th at the Kathrin Cawein Gallery.  The collaborative exhibit will feature Emily Miller’s finished sculptures created from plastic marine debris (“ghost net”) as well as over 1\,000 pounds of unprocessed fishing rope and net.  \nFor four weeks\, Emily will be working in the gallery alongside visitors\, processing the materials and creating finished sculptures. Artists and visitors of any artistic ability are encouraged to visit the space\, experiment with the material\, and create their own pieces. At the end of the exhibit\, visitors are encouraged to take materials home — continuing the idea of sustainable use of reclaimed materials. \nThe sculptures\, or baskets\, begin as fishing rope washed ashore on the beaches of Maine\, Oregon\, and Kauai. Cleaned\, unraveled\, and restitched\, the colorful rope becomes a collection of unique baskets accented with local stones and other treasures.  \nThe Kathrin Cawein Gallery is located in Scott Hall at Pacific University\, 2043 College Way\, Forest Grove\, Oregon. The gallery is open Monday-Friday\, from 1-5 PM\, through October 31st. An opening reception will be held Monday\, October 7th from 4-6 PM; the closing reception will be held Tuesday\, October 29th from 4-6 PM. \nIn partnership with Washington County Open Studios\, the gallery is also open Saturday\, October 19th and Sunday\, October 20th from 11-5 PM.  \nJoin Artist Emily Miller to make a visible difference in marine conservation\, transforming dangerous marine waste into objects of value.   \nThe Ghost Net Landscape exhibit will be a collaborative gallery space in partnership with CALC\, Eden Acres\, Pacific University\, SOLVE Oregon\, Oregon State Parks\, Surfrider Kauai\, Port of Grays Harbor\, and Ocean Gold Seafood. The exhibit is funded in part by the Regional Arts & Culture Council.
