SUMMARY:dance workshop: letting things catch fire
DESCRIPTION:letting things catch fire – a little house workshop\nDuring this workshop\, we will court transformation through sensation\, attention\, and imagination. Working with guided visualizations and extended sensorial meditations\, we will tune to the subtle\, looking for the edges of impulse\, image\, and intention. What ignites our movement? What burns away? What remains? \nParticipants will engage in various improvisation exercises and tasked based work aimed at engaging their compositional mind. Using different modalities and exercises from choreographer Heather Stewart’s creative process we will build a movement score together over the course of two days. \nBy allowing curiosity and risk to lead\, we’ll explore interference as a strategy for change\, letting accidents\, friction\, and desire shape our choices. The aim is to let things catch fire\, to interrupt impulses\, to stay with things until they shift. \nWorkshop is November 1 & 2\nNovember 1 from 1-6:30pm\nNovember 2 from 10am-4pm \n(one day options are possible\, please inquire) \nSliding scale $125-185  CLICK HERE \nParticipants of the workshop are invited\, but not required\, to perform the score at MAGMA on November 14 & 15 for the MAGMA Showcase.  \n\nFounded by Heather Stewart (she/they) in 2020\, little house is a professional dance company established on principles of democratic process\, collaboration\, sustainability\, and high caliber dance performance in service of a strong arts ecosystem in Maine. After several years of working as an independent artist Heather established little house in order to formalize her collaborative relationships with other dancers\, musicians\, visual artists\, and writers. As an organization\, little house exists to challenge the notion that quality dance can only arise in cities that have already been categorized as designated dance hubs. \nExploring human disorder and melancholy\, little house dance draws viewers into dark and intimate worlds of movement ritual and duration. Movement vocabulary is created and performed with a clear\, rigorous approach to choreography and performance presence. little house dance creates work for audiences who are invested in seeing performance that stretches the boundaries of movement potential while touching on experiences that are uniquely human.

SUMMARY:Autumn Song Swap
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS \nLocal singer-songwriters Miranda Aisling\, Matt Jenson\, and Kara Kulpa are coming together at MAGMA to trade songs and stories. Join them on Sunday\, November 9\, 2025 at 6:00 pm. \nTickets are available on a sliding scale from $10 – 30 both online and at the door\, ensuring everyone has access to this community event. All ticket holders receive equal entry\, guests are encouraged to support as they are able. \nMIRANDA AISLING\nMiranda Aisling (ash-lean)’s mission is to reconnect art to daily life\, a purpose you can see through her work as an interdisciplinary artist\, community organizer\, and creative entrepreneur. Using an art degree from Mary Baldwin University focusing on painting\, pottery\, and piano and an education degree from Lesley University focusing on community art\, Miranda is a professional artist and community arts consultant. Her original folk songs blend frank vulnerability with insightful social commentary. A classically trained pianist who shifted from Bach to the Indigo Girls\, she brings the lively spirit of a folk festival to her performances\, engaging audiences with a mix of sung and spoken storytelling. \nMATT JENSON\nGrowing up in rural New Hampshire (USA) injected Matt with a deep spiritual connection communicated by the simplicity\, beauty and truth of nature. As a child he had the opportunity to visit extended family in Boston and with that cultural exposure\, he fell in love with the musical styles of the African diaspora: Jazz\, Blues\, Reggae and Afro-Latin music. Later as a young man with a penchant for seeking the deeper understanding of life\, he became extremely interested in the socio-political-economic and psychological-emotional conditions of human-kind. This\, combined with his intense creative drive\, provides the bedrock for nearly all of Matt’s artistic output as a talented keyboardist\, singer\, composer\, arranger\, educator and producer. He has been on the piano faculty at Berklee College of Music (20+ years) and teaches\, among various labs and one-on-one piano lessons\, an entire class on Bob Marley. He’s been performing regionally with his Latin and Reggae bands (Mix Up Mix Up\, Combo Sabroso\, the Liquid Revolution\, Rebel Tumbao) and touring\, composing and recording with the internationally acclaimed reggae-jazz fusion band\, Groundation (2018-2022\, the One Rock album). His current musical project brings him back to his love of simplicity\, beauty and nature with “Unmarked Routes”\, an ambient\, neoclassical\, dub piano with electronics project\, soon to be releasing a new album. \nKARA KULPA\n“Poetic and soulful” and “A riotously fun time” are just a couple of ways folks have described singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist\, Kara Kulpa. Since the release of her initial EP\, Any Given Day\, in May of 2005\, Kulpa has toured the country as a solo act as well as in conjunction with various other acts. She has shared the stage with nationally recognized artists including Rufus Wainwright and Eddie Money and made a name for herself as a “go to sideman” for those local to or passing through Boston. House of Abundant Kindness House Concert Series said\, “Kara Kulpa has a charm and personality that make you want to be her best friend…” Don’t miss the opportunity to see this seasoned and entertaining performer live.
