Featured Artist<br />
The Piece – Preservation<br />
This art piece speaks of patterns of<br />
change and preservation. My artwork was<br />
created from umbrella tree fronds that I<br />
collected from my garden. My inspiration<br />
is seeing the beauty and the possibility in<br />
the simple things, things that would be<br />
discarded or thrown away.<br />
Dress making patterns, garden<br />
waste from umbrella tree, wooden<br />
spool from tip<br />
The Artist – Michelle Reed<br />
(L-R: Julie Sutton, Michelle Reed, Aaron Hudson)<br />
I started my studies at Seaforth TAFE<br />
where I studied fine arts and art<br />
photography. I was then accepted<br />
into Queensland College of Art where<br />
I completed a Bachelor of Visual Art,<br />
majoring in photography. I have been<br />
teaching at the Tramshed at Narrabeen<br />
for 15 years and will continue in 2015,<br />
teaching art to toddlers and school<br />
children within my business, Kinder<br />
Art. I am inspired by everything around<br />
me. I love to work with found items or<br />
vegetation to create new and exciting<br />
pieces. In a nutshell, I live and breathe art.

Zumba Fitness<br />
Beacon Hill War Memorial Hall<br />
Monday 9.30am<br />
What are Zumba Fitness benefits Considering<br />
Zumba’s lively music, laid-back atmosphere and<br />
easy dance steps, it is more of a good time than an<br />
exercise class, an incredibly fun workshop.<br />
Zumba steps are designed simple enough for most<br />
people to follow and master. There are a limited<br />
number of steps per song, so the choreography<br />
is not so complicated that the participant has to<br />
concentrate on doing them at the expense of<br />
enjoyment.<br />
Zumba works the whole body, including the arms<br />
and legs. It helps to strengthen the body’s core<br />
and slim down body, all while doing basic moves.<br />
$15 per session<br />

Depression and Anxiety Self-Care<br />
Support Group<br />
Forestville Community Centre (Lorikeet Room)<br />
Friday 9.30am<br />
Depression and anxiety are common mental<br />
issues in our community. A key challenge for those<br />
experiencing anxiety or depression is isolation…<br />
the idea that they are alone; everyone else has<br />
it “together”. Many believe that if they hide<br />
themselves, “suck it up” and just try harder they<br />
will begin to feel better. Research shows that<br />
these approaches make a difference for a while<br />
but are not a long term solution.<br />
38
Awaken your mind, body and soul.
This group provides a safe, supportive<br />
environment to share, listen, feel heard, and<br />
learn to feel different feelings, to see self in<br />
others and to improve your individual self-care.<br />
The group is facilitated by an experienced<br />
therapist.<br />
It takes courage to do something for yourself<br />
when you are experiencing anxiety and/or<br />
depression. Everyone in this group understands<br />
that, so come along in all your imperfection<br />
and share the space with those who truly “get”<br />
where you are.<br />
