Explore Cuba’s vibrant art with Ines Powell. Cuban art is a rich mixture of African, European and North American influences that reflect the diverse demographics of the island. Cuban art began to flourish in the 19th century with the foundation of the San Alejandro Academy of the Arts in Havana. From its beginnings, the Academy was the incubator of Cuba’s most famous artists, such as Wifredo Lam, Amelia Pelaez, Rene Portocarrero and many others. In the early part of the 20th century, Cuban artists began to create their own Cuban vanguardism movements under the influence of European modernist styles.

Ines Powell is an art historian and educator, and has been associated with the Metropolitan Museum of Art since 1982.

April Selection: Where’d You Go Bernadette? By Maria Semple

A whip-smart, hysterical dramedy about a family in crisis after the disappearance of its brilliant, misanthropic matriarch.

Bernadette Fox is notorious. To her Microsoft-guru husband, she's a fearlessly opinionated partner; to fellow private-school mothers in Seattle, she's a disgrace; to design mavens, she's a revolutionary architect, and to 15-year-old Bee, she is a best friend and, simply, Mom.

Then Bernadette disappears. It began when Bee aced her report card and claimed her promised reward: a family trip to Antarctica. But Bernadette's intensifying allergy to Seattle--and people in general--has made her so agoraphobic that a virtual assistant in India now runs her most basic errands. A trip to the end of the earth is problematic.

To find her mother, Bee compiles email messages, official documents, secret correspondence--creating a compulsively readable and touching novel about misplaced genius and a mother and daughter's role in an absurd world.

Our busy lives pull us in many directions. Taking time to be still, present, and focused
has many benefits. Meditation is a practice that strengthens our focus and attention, as well as
releases stress to stay healthy.

Open to all skill levels. Please bring a mat or use our chairs.

Carolyn Carpentiere is passionate about mind-body health and it is her belief that it holds the solution to most all health problems.

She has studied at Kripalu in the Berkshires, Yoga International and the Open Center in NYC. She has passion for learning solutions to help people connect to their innate healing potential.

April's Selection: The Water Knife by Paulo Bacigalupi

Three very different characters—an orphaned Texan teen marooned in Phoenix; the “water knife” Angel from Las Vegas who will break any law he needs to in order to pave the way for his boss to gain the water rights she wants; and journalist Lucy Monroe, who has adopted drought-decimated Phoenix as her own—thrust Bacigalupi’s near-future tale through violence and betrayal toward a blockbuster conclusion that could well be one of the best endings of the year.
