WHAT IS THE AQUARIAN COMMUNITY CENTER?
The two wavy lines on the sign in the window suggest harmonious communication — among neighbors and friends. It is the astrological glyph for Aquarius, the New Age of Brotherhood and enlightened living.
In the short ‘life of the Aquarian Center, people have used its facilities to practice Hatha Yoga for good health, to study (and practice!) vegetarian cooking and eating, to meet to study mediation, to celebrate seasonal holidays and the pleasures of creative activities with children, to teach office skills as part of the Skinker-DeBaliviere summer job skills program, to participate through bringing food to the World Hunger workshop held at St. Roch’s, to give Hatha Yoga demonstrations at the neighborhood fair, to be host to a furniture refinishing group from Grace Methodist, to name only a few activities.
Next month, (December 13 from noon to 5 p.m.) we will have a Holiday Bazaar with Christmas candles, tree ornaments, gifts, some resale and white elephant items, and baked goods. Bring the family, for there will be movies and games for kids, food and music.
Better yet, make a donation to the Bazaar, too, we’ll be glad to pick up things, or bring them to the Center after 6 p.m. most any week day evening or Saturday between 9 and 11 a.m. That’s part of making the Aquarian Center the Aquarian Community Center. The other part is coming around and getting acquainted soon.
Greetings to all for a Happy Holiday Season and a New Year of Peace.
For more information or pick up, call the center at 726-5133, Gennie at 962- 3779 or Vivian at 721-0168.
