Bridges to Wellbeing, in partnership with Artistree, will host a free screening of Anxious Nation on October 22 from 6:00–7:30 p.m. at the Artistree Grange.

The documentary explores the growing rates of anxiety among children and teens and the challenges families face in understanding and responding to it. Following the film, a local panel will discuss how anxiety can present at different ages and share resources available in our community. Attendees will also receive a resource guide featuring recommended books, with several books from the list given away during the event. Free childcare will be available, but an RSVP is required for childcare.

TAKE THE SURVEY

Join local dance artist, Ellen Smith Ahern, and collaborators, Kate Elias and Jessie Owens, for an interactive sneak peek into the creation of their new work, Shell.  

Shell is an intergenerational performance project that follows dancers through a shifting landscape of quilts, inviting participants to listen and communicate through layers, veils, and bodies with curiosity, compassion and joy. Developed with community members during a week of creative residency at Artistree, scenes from Shell are taking shape - come see what folks are making and share your reflections!
