H-Cubed Equinox: Fall Back to School celebration

This weekend, the Living Room hosted H-Cubed's Equinox celebration. Featured performing artist McKenna Selissen stunned the crowd with her powerful voice, while featured visual artist Imani Waters shared her original paintings throughout the night. A big thank you to everyone who came to support the artists and those who shared their gifts during the open mic! 

Reflection by Erica Seltzer-Schultz 

After a full week, a beautiful space, hanging in between week and weekend. People different ages, different races gather in the Living Room. Couches, chairs, free food, welcome.
Music, poetry, that touches deep, responds to the moment, carries us to the next. Words, notes that stir memories, something fierce, something that aches.
Conversation with strangers. But are they really strangers? Intimacy, realness, reflection in their eyes. Something so familiar.
What am I growing out of? What am I growing into?
A pause between push, pull and control­­ – a rest, a hope, could I create like that too? Does what sleeps in my heart matter?
We are coming out of denial.
Fed, spiritually and physically.
