Next Salon Slated for Friday, May 8.
Theme: “Light and Dark”
“A salon is a gathering of people under the roof of an inspiring host, held partly to amuse one another and partly to refine the taste and increase the knowledge of the participants through conversation.”
 
SALON SERIES III is Friday, May 8th, 7 to 9 p.m. at the Ojai Valley Green Coalition Resource Center – 206 N. Signal St., Suite S, in downtown Ojai.
In honor of the International Year of Light, May’s Salon theme is ‘Light and Dark’.
The wonder of the night sky has been a constant since the dawn of civilization. It has inspired countless generations, poets, scientists and dreamers.
In Science, darkness is the absence of light, but can we have light without the dark? The night atmosphere chemically goes through a self-cleaning process, so our daylight atmosphere is purer.
In Art, dark and light use each other to create a picture that looks real. This contrast is very important, and the artist has to learn how to work with both.
In Psychology, the dark or shadow informs the light or consciousness. This consciousness or wisdom is dependent on the exploration of the invisible or the dark.

 Gardeners and farmers both current and aspiring are invited to join in for the 4th Annual Ojai Valley Seed & Plant Swap. All are welcome to bring stories and a passion for growing food, and if you have them, bring seeds, cuttings, or starts to share. The Swap is hosted by the Ojai Valley Green Coalition with Food for Thought Ojai and the Center for Regenerative Agriculture.
We also invite nonprofits and growers to sell local seeds, starts and garden amendments. A donation of 10% of gross sales to the Ojai Valley Green Coalition is requested. For further information or to coordinate sharing or selling seeds and plants contact the Green Coalition at (805) 669-8445 or coordinator@ojaivalleygreencoalition.com.
A $5 donation is suggested, if not bringing items to share or sell.
If swapping, no need to register. When you arrive you can find free table space and a chair, if you want to stay with your seeds; or there will be an unstaffed community table for misc. seeds.
