The “Living Your Dream” Program, Bob Alonge, Living Your Dream Promotions
Designed by Bob Alonge to help individuals fulfill their inner-most artistic passions through the use of “supportive activities and interventions.” The program is based on Mr. Alonge’s book Art 4 All, An Artist’s Journey in this World and his “Supportive Process” and “Creative Process” theories. The goal of these training’s is to help caregivers to encourage their clients to expand their interests and turn them into tools to achieve increased self-esteem through the use of their creative talents; to pursue inner joy through these regular artistic practices; to increase ‘strength focused’ interaction between caregivers and their clients; and to broaden their understanding of their clients’ unique talents.
How Manos Unidas will Change the Face of Berkshires and Beyond, Robert Austen, Manos Unidas Multiculural Educational Cooperative
This presentation will encompass ideas of years of experience as a consumer and how working and leading a Co-op can change thinking and ways of looking at work and the environment.
Business and Creativity – Sculpting Your Concept, Jim Benson, Mission Bar and Tapas
I have a foggy recollection of a quote about sculpture – the notion that the process of making a sculpture was simply uncovering what was already contained within the rock. That’s all I can tell you, but it has stuck with me since I heard it, as a child, presumably. Business can be like this I’ve found. My impression of business used to be that it was very dry, lots of talk about market analysis, and projections, financials, human resource demands, and so on. And you had to have a marketing plan. What a bore.

Two Stories, One Thought, Bob Kasper, What If?
One of the worlds greatest chefs spends every day for 30 years preparing a classic, simple hollandaise sauce and is still working on understanding it. My college painting instructors, upon reviewing my charcoal sketch of a classic seated nude, has only one thing to say “I don’t believe you.” Both stories are all about creative truth.

Living in your Body: Grounding, Clearing, and Elevating your Life Energy, Anne O’Neil, Your Soul Path
This session starts with a brief check-in with the audience as to if/how they felt they were affected by anyone else’s energy that day. That would be an opening for a 3-minute discussion on the nature of energy and how we take it on and release it throughout our day. The bulk of the presentation would be introducing the audience to a powerful grounding meditation that can be used whenever one feels ungrounded and/or overwhelmed.
