Quilter Terri Charlsen of McGregor, Minn. is sharing the word about the Community Canvas, an art exhibit at the Jaques Art Center in Aitken. The Arts Center distributed blank canvases of varying sizes to anyone who wanted to participate, and the resulting collection showcases the talents of residents young and old. There are just under 200 canvases this year and they’re painted, beaded, quilted and more. Charlsen said part of the fun is “searching for who did what.” Community Canvas will be on display through Oct. 24. Courtesy of Geordin Crist "Rainbow Body", 8x10 poured acrylic on canvas by artist Geordin Crist. This piece is an interpretation of grief, Crist says. "When my father passed, it felt dark and deep and quiet, but it also helped me learn that behind grief is love. I think acceptance comes when you can learn to hold both the dark and the light." Art lover Jessica Bergman of northeast Minneapolis appreciates the paintings of Geordin Crist of Falcon Heights. Crist paints in different styles, but since the start of the pandemic, they have been experimenting with paint pours and posting the results on Instagram multiple times a week. Crist creates paintings without the manipulation of brushes. Bergman finds that these abstract works sometimes evoke the sea or flowers, and she’s drawn to Crist’s bold colors and contrasts. Editor T. Martin Crouse of Minneapolis is looking forward to an improv/burlesque fusion event, “Whose Bra is it Anyway?” at 8 p.m. Saturday. The Zoom audience chooses the music before the performance, leaving the performers just minutes to create a routine. This event used to take place quarterly and in-person but will now happen over Zoom. “People hear ‘burlesque’ and they think ‘stripping,’ but it’s not; it’s undressing with humor, and that really elevates it to an art form that is just surprisingly invigorating,” Crouse said. “The burlesque community is very body-positive, and really embraces the LGBTQ community. You’re going to see a lot of colorful characters of all shapes and sizes. I can’t stress the comedy enough.”

Club E Will be joined by Sue Crockett, Tom Crouse, Bruce Christensen, Benjamin Tsai and Dan MarkowitzOver the next 10 years, more than 2.4 million U.S. businesses owned by retiring baby boomers will change hands or dissolve and unfortunately studies show that more than half of all small business owners do not have a succession plan. Employee ownership is a business model in which employees collectively own a percentageof the business for which they work. Two of the main forms are Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) and Worker Cooperatives. In both, employees are given a financial stake in the business. As the business prospers, employees prosper. Today’s session will provide the story of two businesses that converted to an employee ownership model and some of the basic technical aspects that went into the transition.Our Speakers: Sue Crockett, Tom Crouse, Bruce Christensen, Benjamin Tsai and Dan MarkowitzSue Crockett | scrockett@mnceo.orgSue is the Executive Director of MNCEO aimed to educate business owners and their employees on the benefits of employee ownership via Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs), worker cooperatives, and Employee Ownership Trusts (EOTs).
