SUMMARY:Grief Writing - A monthly exploration of loss and heartbreak
DESCRIPTION:Grief Writing – A monthly exploration of loss and heartbreak \nTime: First Saturday of each month\, 10 am to 11:15 am Central Time. Sat. 4/5\, Sat. May 3rd\, Sat. June 7th \n“I am not suggesting that we live a life preoccupied with sorrow. I am saying that our refusal to welcome the sorrows that come to us\, our inability to move through these experiences with true presence and conscious awareness\, condemns us to a life shadowed by grief. Welcoming everything that comes to us is the challenge. This is the secret to being fully alive.” – Francis Weller \nJennifer New leads this monthly group that uses writing as a reflective tool to explore loss. Francis Weller’s Five Gates of Grief provides a backbone to consider grief from multiple angles\, e.g.\, death of loved ones\, loss of health or ability\, grief for the world. This is an ongoing group; you’re welcome to attend once or each time. No writing experience is needed. \nRegister here to receive a Zoom link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScCAE8cbaf5Va-3V5TrXUTtTOJ9-PIlnE4eqq3xEw5kIR9_1A/viewform Or come in-person. \nPayment: This class is offered via dana – the Buddhist concept of giving without expectation of receiving anything in return. Making donations to recognize the leader’s teachings are appreciated.

Schumacher merely goes over the top. Result? Bigger\, battier and better.”—Carol Buckland\, USA Today \n“Schumacher’s spin on the black-suited vigilante is as flawed as it is brilliant\, as messy as it is impressive. A bit of a two-face really.“—Ian Nathan\, Empire Magazine \n“Batman Forever is a visual tour de force\, a knock-your-eyes-out effort.”—Michael Booth\, CNN \nBatman (Val Kilmer) faces off against two foes: the schizophrenic and horribly scarred former District Attorney Harvey Dent\, aka Two-Face (Tommy Lee Jones)\, and the Riddler (Jim Carrey)\, a disgruntled ex-Wayne Enterprises inventor seeking revenge against his former employer by unleashing his brain-sucking weapon on Gotham City’s residents. While our caped crusader fights to protect Gotham from these villains\, he also deals with tortured memories of his parents’ murder\, and finds romance with psychologist Chase Meridian (Nicole Kidman). \n\n\n\nShowtimes\nSat Jun 7 8:45pm

SUMMARY:Music on the Move
DESCRIPTION:Music on the Move began as a Truckload of Soul in 2020\, when musician Kevin Burt approached Summer of the Arts about bringing live music to neighborhoods in the midst of a pandemic. In the back of a pickup truck\, he played his guitar for some much-needed sound! The idea went over so well that we decided to bring back the concept in 2021 as Music on the Move. \nWe continue to partner with Iowa City’s Parks and Recreation Department to bring music to the neighborhoods every week during June\, July\, and August! \nJune 11\, 2025\n6:30 pm Crystal City Trio @ PinSeekers\nJune 18\, 2025\n6:00 pm Dave Zollo @ S.T.

SUMMARY:Free Summer Shakespeare: Romeo & Juliet
DESCRIPTION:by William Shakespeare\nDirected by Adam Knight\nSponsored by ImOn Communications \nJune 13 – 29\, 2025 at Lower City Park\nAll shows free – no ticket reservation required \nSynopsis: \nFor our 40th production and our 25th year on the festival stage we will bring the story of… \n“Two households\, both alike in dignity\nIn fair Verona\, where we lay our scene”. \nRomeo & Juliet is a story of youth\, love\, and the possibility of change. In a society teeming with lovers and fighters\, divided by deep\, partisan rifts\, two young voices dare to envision a new path forward—one built on love instead of conflict. Shakespeare’s timeless masterpiece captures the intensity of young passion and the hope that a new generation can overcome the failures of the past. Above all\, it is the story of love: its power to transform\, unite\, and endure\, even in the face of tragedy. \nNO NEED FOR TICKETS – ALL PERFORMANCES ARE FREE\n \nPerformance dates:\nFriday\, June 13 @ 7:30pm\nSaturday\, June 14 @ 7:30pm\nSunday\, June 15 @ 7:30pm \nThursday\, June 19 @ 7:30pm\nFriday\, June 20 @ 7:30pm\nSaturday\, June 21 @ 7:30pm\nSunday\, June 22 @ 7:30pm \nThursday\, June 26 @ 7:30pm\nFriday\, June 27 @ 7:30pm\nSaturday\, June 28 @ 7:30pm\nSunday\, June 29 @ 7:30pm
