SPRING has started...

With Spring on its way, the Gallery normally moves forward on its Summer program details. We have three great exhibitions with workshops, performances, guest speakers, artists, poets and more slated. But with the impact of COVID-19 pandemic surrounding our lives, we are rethinking how GreenTARA functions and so are looking into other ways of providing access to the arts and community activities.

The first show would start mid-May with multiple activities over the Memorial Day weekend. But as March ends and April flowers pop up, May is still an unknown. We’ll keep you posted!

GREAT ICE - WINTER 2020

Check out the greaticevt.org website for specific activities! Meanwhile GreenTARA will open for hot cocoa and icy activities — such as the “Ice Beauty” slide show by Marilyn Maddison.

FRIDAY - 5pm thru the fireworks; SATURDAY - 3:30pm on - for a warm up after skiing or snowshoeing; and SUNDAY - 10am - before going out to play! Photos are from last year’s ice & snow.

Great Ice Festival - North Hero

February 14, 15, 16 - Great Ice Festival - SOON!

Maybe this isn’t fair, but the photos are from last year. This year Ice is forming but then turns to slush. We do still have several weeks to go tho! So keep checking esp. the website <greaticevt.org>. GreenTARA will be open with Ice Music by Ben Mayock, “The Magic of Ice” Photographs by Marilyn Maddison, and hot cocoa. So stop by and play inside or on the frozen expanse of City Bay.

Wonderful Winter Retreat

The Yoga / Meditation Retreat is over but the energy and spirit generated continues in what we do. Hoping that the beauty and compassion we felt for our selves and our natural environment spread throughout everything we do. The Gallery continues to be a place a light - winter and summer!

Yoga/Meditation with Martha Whitney

Women’s Silent Winter Retreat January 17 - 18, 2020.

Slow to the world and come home to yourself in this deep winter silent retreat.
In a community of women by the shores of Lake Champlain you will be heart-fully
guided in practices of joyful chanting, mindful yoga, and sitting and walking
meditation inside and out in the winter landscape. Friday evening we will share a
potluck dinner and then we will be provided simple and delicious meals to nourish
our journey. In silence we listen to ourselves and 'wake up' to a fresh connection
with ourselves, each other, and the natural world. Come celebrate winter and
yourself!

"Where do you draw the line?" art show continues with special events Sept. 21 and 22, 2019.

where do you draw the line? This show is about exploring the effect that borders have on habitat: human, environmental, and spiritual. Our existence has always depended on moving, migrating, and adapting as conditions change. So what are the implications of drawing lines across space?

In Barbara Waters’ work, we see her create from the experience of encountering a wall cutting through our protected lands. And in Tuyen My Nguyen’s installation, we have string as line building a boundary through which we cannot pass.
