The closing reception and gallery talk for Marty Nash’s solo exhibition, Doppler Effect, will be held at Form + Content Gallery and is free and open to the public. Nash describes the series as rooted in the visual language of deep reds and bright oranges reminiscent of weather maps and the shifting imagery of ultrasound monitors. The title reflects a broader metaphor for perception, where meaning changes with one’s viewpoint and through time, whether encountered quickly and up close or slowly from a distance. Her work favors abstract form, gesture, spatial presence, and the pace of mark making over literal depiction. Drawing on a familiar vocabulary of shapes, colors, and lines from both recognizable and nonliteral sources, she aims to give presence to form. Guided by intuition and chance, and shaped by relationships and the wider world, she emphasizes deep blacks and sinuous reds as a response to the current moment and a personal sense of loss. Through movement and transition she seeks an essence that feels true, with the hope that it resonates with viewers. Marty Nash holds an MFA in painting from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design and a BFA in painting and drawing from the University of Minnesota. She was a founding member of WARM Gallery and is a member of Form + Content Gallery. Her work has been presented in numerous solo and group exhibitions, including the Catherine G. Murphy Gallery at St. Catherine University, the Katherine E. Nash Gallery at the University of Minnesota, Groveland Gallery, the Minneapolis College of Art and Design Gallery, Intermedia Arts, the Duluth Art Institute, and the Harry M. Drake Gallery, with pieces held in both public and private collections.

An autumn celebration of dance and Halloween-inspired magic unfolds outdoors at Parade Ice Arena in Minneapolis. With the skyline nearby, the space will glow with electric candles and lanterns, and a steaming cauldron will set the scene for seasonal dancing influenced by Halloween and Día de los Muertos. A highlight is the Wolfshager Hexenbrut witches dance taught step by step, welcoming beginners with no prior experience. More group dances from Germany, Mexico, and beyond will be shared. Costumes are encouraged, whether witchy or any Halloween style. Participants are invited to bring a broom or a similar prop such as a walking stick or ski pole, and a hip scarf or other scarf if they have one. Bring a chair for the social time that follows the dancing, where hot tea and snacks will be available. Since this is outside, dressing in layers is recommended.

Settle into stillness during a 90-minute breathwork, meditation, and sound experience designed to restore balance across mind, body, and spirit. The session begins with gentle guidance in breathing and meditation so you can fully relax on your mat, then unfolds into an immersive sound bath. Crystal singing bowls, a resonant gong, and instruments that evoke ocean, rain, and wind create soothing layers of vibration. This form of sound immersion is an age-old wellness practice associated with easing stress and anxiety. Because sound moves through water faster than through air, and the body contains a significant amount of water, many people find these vibrations help them reset their internal rhythms. The experience also invites awareness of intention and how daily thinking and doing shape personal energy. Attendees are encouraged to bring a yoga mat and water bottle, along with comfort items such as a blanket, pillow or bolster, and an eye mask or cover. Wear clothing that allows you to relax with ease. Hosted by Jean Nitchals, founder of Crystal Healing Collective, a Reiki Master, internationally accredited sound healer, and conscious breathwork facilitator. Crystal Healing Collective is a locally owned, women-led organization focused on elevating shared strengths to nurture positive change for individuals and communities. Give Back: In honor of both parents who passed in September 2023 and October 2024, Jean is running a series of charity marathons. With community support, more than $20,000 has been raised since September 2023. This fall, Jean is racing in the Sydney Marathon for Team Crohn’s and Colitis. A donation of at least $30 per person toward this cause can be exchanged for a complimentary pass to the sound bath by emailing a donation receipt to be added to the guest list.
