Worship Speaker-Andrew Bouchard Service
Associate-Ben Luce, Musician-Janice Luce, Greeter-Doug Bouchard
Title–Community, Meaning Making, and Music Revolution
Bio-Andrew Bouchard is a dad, educator and also the producer/promoter of BorderLine Entertainment (BLE). During the warmer months BLE puts on loud concerts for local/national touring acts at The Barrage, a converted Barn/Garage up in Holland, VT. Andrew has an academic background in Sociology, Community Studies and Place Based Education. He enjoys getting into the woods sometimes, too.
Topic– Allowing music to move your soul is a transcendent yet inherently human experience. In rural Vermont, musical performances can be hard to come by. Yet thanks to underground networks of Do It Yourself musicians, artists, promoters and otherwise altruistically minded folks, soul- shifting
musical performances are happening in basements, warehouses, and barns across the globe. Compared to the market tested medicinal musical model of top-40 radio, these DIY petri dishes of musical creativity are creating
communities of people supporting people to find meaning is world, while sporadically inciting the next musical revolution.is world, while sporadically inciting the next musical revolution.

Service Associate-Nicole Gratton, Musician– Janice Luce, Greeter-Karen Hennig

This service will be much like a gallery walk and open house, where we can mingle, discuss, and share the art that is in our lives. If you have art to share, please email Nicole at Nicole.k.gratton@gmail.com so she can prepare space for you in the hall.

Worship Speaker– Ceilidh Calloway
Service Associate-Karen Hennig, Musician– Janice Luce, Greeter-Jessica Thurber
Title– The Fundamental Ingredients to Build a Better World
Bio-WonderArts welcomed Ceilidh Galloway-Kane as Executive Director after the merger of The Art House and Wonder & Wisdom in 2017. She started as director of The Art House in 2015. A native of East Hardwick, Ceilidh is a 2011 graduate of Smith College. She majored in Art History and Museum Education. Ceilidh’s creativity and tenacity continues to inspire dynamic programming for individuals of all ages. An artist herself, she is a true advocate for creativity and arts education in our communities throughout the state.
Topic–Arts and culture are what make life colorful and alive. Growing up in rural Vermont, Ceilidh was fortunate to have a family that identified her interest in the arts and made an effort despite access and finances, to bring her to museums, sign her up for classes, and connect her to local artists. Many
children and youth are not as lucky as she was. There are high rates of poverty, trauma, and limited affordable access to cultural activities and the arts. Arts are part of social change and because of this, Ceilidh is dedicated to providing cultural experiences for others in the rural setting of Greensboro, VT.
Let’s explore how the arts enable us to connect, reflect, inspire, and thrive.
