You're invited to a hands-on workshop where you'll create your own Carnival costume inspired by the iconic bats of Trinidad Carnival – a symbol of creativity, freedom, and expression.

"Wassy" is Trinidadian slang for something or someone impressive, exciting, and hyperactive. Carnivals are not merely festivities; they serve as tools for social commentary and symbolic, performative public discourse. In this workshop, you'll learn various techniques to craft your own "wassy" bat using paper, cardboard, fabric, and other found materials. Feel free to bring extra materials to adorn your costume.

Join the Wassy Bats Procession, where you can showcase your costume and celebrate alongside fellow revelers through dance and performance.

Come by!

Charlottesville Area Trail Runners are presenting 90 minutes of curated movies covering a range of trail running stories. We have been selected as one almost 50 sites in the US, Canada and Europe to show the films, and is the only location in Virginia.

Films are selected to showcase a range of trail experiences and challenges by a diverse collection of film makers and runners as they face a range of personal challenges. There is no charge but space is limited.

Roger Beebe will be making his first-ever stop in Charlottesville with a new program of 16mm multi-projector performances celebrating the 25thanniversary of his first touring program.  

“Beebe’s films are both erudite and punk, lo-fi yet high-brow shorts that wrestle with a disfigured, contemporary American landscape.” --Wyatt Williams, Creative Loafing

(new date from the original date that was postponed 2/15)

Join us for an evening of conversation with Cristina Martin of bakernobakery and Jim Franks, the author of Existential Bread.

Books will be available for purchase through f12 Book Store.

Jim Franks is a baker and a poet who’s written a love story about bread — which is to say he’s

written a life story about listening, learning, trying, failing, adapting, and above all, caring. His

debut book builds on a life-consuming passion for quality bread: what goes into it, physically

and emotionally. Based in Chicago, Jim is known locally for selling out of loaves quickly, but

across the country he’s worked under nearly every bread baker equally obsessed with 100

percent whole grain. Through humor, history, relentless curiosity, and refreshingly unsentimental

poetry, Existential Bread teaches there are many ways to bake a loaf just as there are many

ways to live a life.

bakernobakery is Chris(tina) Martin.

Originally from Northern California, Chris has a strong passion for local farmer’s markets and growing their own ingredients. After spending a few years in fine dining kitchens around the country, they decided to open a home-based microbakery.

So yes, by technicality,

there is a bakery.
