SUMMARY:Wild Beauty: The Botanical Art of the Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden Florilegium | Bell Museum - St Paul
DESCRIPTION:Experience the beauty of a special place in the Twin Cities! The Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden is the oldest public native plant garden in the United States. Located in the heart of Minneapolis\, it brings together a diverse collection of plants in woodland\, wetland\, and meadow habitats in just 18 acres. This unique garden started by Eloise (and others) has been carefully cultivated over 120 years by many hands into the wondrous place it is today. \nThe Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden Florilegium captures the intimate details of the beautiful wild plants of this garden. A florilegium is a compendium of illustrations of the plants in a particular place\, as a visual and historical record. Created by artists of the Minnesota School of Botanical Art\, the project reclaims a centuries old form to highlight a special\, public place that’s important today. It carries on a tradition of botanical illustration that brings together art and science to create accurate\, yet expressive\, depictions of living plants. \nThis all-ages exhibition centers on the 111 watercolors of the florilegium. It includes hands-on activities\, such as a collaborative garden mural and an opportunity to learn to draw plants\, as well as a video projection and collections highlights\, including specimens collected by Eloise Butler herself for the University of Minnesota Herbarium. \nThis is a Weekly Recurring Event\nRuns from Sep 26\, 2026 to Jan 3\, 2027 and happens every:\nWednesdays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)\nThursdays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)\nFridays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)\nSaturdays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)\nSundays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)

SUMMARY:Jam Lab | Candeza Music
DESCRIPTION:The Jam Lab is a free monthly musical improvisation workshop for all ages and skill levels. Each session will feature diverse practices aimed at inviting collaborative musical creativity. We’ll play improv games to explore the varied forms music takes\, sit in deep listening to sound and silence\, talk about our personal experiences with music\, improvise freely\, and compose musical pieces based on shared psychology as well as chance. \nThe musical improv “games” are participatory exercises with minimal prompts that serve as catalysts for collaborative improvisation. In a freeform manner\, we’ll decide on musical rules for each exercise\, then attempt to perform them in sound. These are experiments with no set outcome; the rules will chart a direction to move toward\, then we’ll see where the improv takes us. A wealth of possibilities for inspiration will be provided: cards containing different forms and techniques\, dice and timers to select parameters\, loop pedals and drum machines to cast sonic palettes\, and others. \nDrawing on free improv music traditions\, these sessions will focus on personal expression and experimentation\, as opposed to technical skill and cultural knowledge. Inclusive free play attitudes of “yes and” and “any sound could be music” will be the guiding principles. People of all musical backgrounds are encouraged to participate. Join us in investigating the dynamics between music\, creativity\, and life through improvisation. \nThese sessions are for: \n· People of all ages and backgrounds seeking a fun activity centered on play \n· Musicians new to improvisation who do not know where or how to start \n· Experienced improvisers looking for new directions\, approaches\, or inspiration \n· Individuals craving an outlet to connect with others through creative expression \nStandard session flow: \n· Discussion about music and improv \n· Deep listening in silence \n· Warm-up exercises \n· Music games \n· Free improvisation \n· Deep listening in silence \n· Reflections \nSample activities: \n· Rhythmic grooves \n· Collaborative soundscape creation \n· Call and response duets \n· Drone jams \n· Composition of complex pieces out of simple elements \n· Lyrical mad libs \n· Much more! \nIdeas we’ll explore: \n· Low-pressure\, easy ways to connect with others through sound and music\, regardless of background and skill level \n· The values of musical expression and experimentation\, as opposed to technical mastery \n· Exploring the permeable boundaries between music\, sound\, noise\, and silence \n· Listening deeply to the present moment\, both externally and internally \n· Connecting with our bodies\, emotions\, and intuition through music \n· Trust\, acceptance\, and encouragement of other people’s creative ideas

SUMMARY:Wild Beauty: The Botanical Art of the Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden Florilegium | Bell Museum - St Paul
DESCRIPTION:Experience the beauty of a special place in the Twin Cities! The Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden is the oldest public native plant garden in the United States. Located in the heart of Minneapolis\, it brings together a diverse collection of plants in woodland\, wetland\, and meadow habitats in just 18 acres. This unique garden started by Eloise (and others) has been carefully cultivated over 120 years by many hands into the wondrous place it is today. \nThe Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden Florilegium captures the intimate details of the beautiful wild plants of this garden. A florilegium is a compendium of illustrations of the plants in a particular place\, as a visual and historical record. Created by artists of the Minnesota School of Botanical Art\, the project reclaims a centuries old form to highlight a special\, public place that’s important today. It carries on a tradition of botanical illustration that brings together art and science to create accurate\, yet expressive\, depictions of living plants. \nThis all-ages exhibition centers on the 111 watercolors of the florilegium. It includes hands-on activities\, such as a collaborative garden mural and an opportunity to learn to draw plants\, as well as a video projection and collections highlights\, including specimens collected by Eloise Butler herself for the University of Minnesota Herbarium. \nThis is a Weekly Recurring Event\nRuns from Sep 26\, 2026 to Jan 3\, 2027 and happens every:\nWednesdays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)\nThursdays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)\nFridays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)\nSaturdays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)\nSundays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)
