Art is a Tool for Liberation. This workshop is designed to provide a holistic model for learning that emphasizes a synergistic approach to understanding ourselves, our world and our place in it individually and collectively. Using the Ancient Globally recognized Sacred Hoop/Medicine Wheel Symbol as a model, the workshop embraces all cultural backgrounds and affirms all spiritual and religious practices. We will heal and learn how to consider Art and Creative Processes as Forms of Individual Freedom of Expression but also of unification and the powerful potential for collective healing. The Medicine Wheel Workshop is an integration of overlapping cultural values, artistic and academic disciplines, and environmental awareness. It will culminate in a fun collective art making project, as we explore universal patterns in life, nature and society.

 7–7:30 p.m. | Reflections on Orlando Rivas
 At 7 p.m., the program will shift to a time of reflection on Orlando’s life and the meaningful impact he had on Buffalo Grove High School and the greater community.

Based on Natalie Babbitt’s beloved best-selling children’s fantasy novel, this spellbinding play is a heartwarming exploration of love, family, and what it truly means to be alive. Perfect for audiences of most ages and great for family chats!
In 1880, 14-year-old Winnie Foster — trapped by the rules of her strait-laced family — runs away and discovers the humble Tuck family, who accidentally stumbled upon a spring that gave them eternal life. Winnie promises to keep their secret, but a mysterious stranger arrives with intentions to steal the immortal water. Ultimately, Winnie must choose: join them in an everlasting adventure, or live a life of ordinary beauty.
