SUMMARY:Flux Thursday: Wicket Leeks Potluck & Artist Salon
DESCRIPTION:Flux Thursday\nJuly 11\n7:30 pm Potluck\n8:30 – 9:30 pm Salon Style Presentations in the Flux Factory Gallery\nPlease let us know you’re coming on Facebook \nThis event is part of the Exhibition Wicket Leeks\, in the Flux Gallery from June 22nd to July 13th \nFlux Thursday is a monthly potluck and artists salon for people to present their work and gather together for food and socializing. The event is free\, but please do bring food or drink to share!\n \n\nMiss Expanding Universe – “Jane Fonda’s Original Workout” \nA simple daily Jane Fonda Workout for Flux residents and beyond. With costumes\, improvisation\, memoir\, poetry and self-help collaged into the workout experience. Why appropriate Eastern Religions when you could do Jane Fonda’s Original Workout? The workout is easy to fit into a busy schedule and appropriate for all levels of fitness. Jane Fonda’s Original Work began as a subtle\, yet orgasmic revolution; it was created at a time when gyms were primarily for men. It subverts capitalism because it is free\, can be done from the convenience of one’s home\, and requires only a towel. Miss Expanding Universe has been on tour with Jane Fonda’s Original Workout for two years and has introduced a healthy\, moderate\, convenient and fun exercise discipline into the lives of people all over the world (however\, she can’t take any credit; she is but a humble vessel for the gospel of Jane). Slogans include: “If Jane can do it\, you can do it!”\, “WORK DEEP!” \, “What would Jane Fonda Do?” and “Cosmic Destiny is Real.” Universe began her personal journey with Jane Fonda in the midst of a debilitating and unmanageable eating disorder (Jane Fonda is also in recovery for an eating disorder)\, and it has been an indispensable part of her path towards a balanced life. She has been doing the workout nearly every day for three years and it has revealed itself to be a complete metaphor for her life. Jane Fonda’s Original Workout is more than just a workout\, it is a spiritual journey. \nJevijoe Vitug – “Kaldereta” \nAs a continuation of his “HOT DOG DAYS” work as part of Wicket Leeks\, Jevijoe Vitug will prepare a vegan Kaldereta and give a presentation on his research and work.
