Two Great Events Saturday, March 2

rethinking money book imageAt 2 pm:  Join us for Rethinking Money: HOW NEW CURRENCIES TURN SCARCITY INTO PROSPERITY

A free live presentation and book signing by Bernard Lietaer and Jacqui Dunne on their new book, Rethinking Money: How New Currencies Turn Scarcity into Prosperity will be held on March 2nd at The Performance Space at Eldorado from 2-6:00 p.m. Be part of one of THE most important conversations of the year here in Santa Fe.

Communities, businesses and governments around the globe are reconsidering the concept of money. In Rethinking Money, Lietaer and Dunne explore the origins of our current monetary system, built on bank debt and scarcity, revealing the surprising and sometimes shocking ways its unconscious limitations give rise to so many of our current and serious problems.

They will offer real world examples of ordinary people and their communities using new money, working in cooperation with national currencies, to strengthen local economies, create work, and beautify cities.

As part of this event, a sneak preview of Money & Life by filmmaker Katie Teague will also be shown. To watch the trailer and learn more about the film, go to www.moneyandlifemovie.com.

REEL New Mexico Returns

February 21 at 7 p.m. at The Performance Space
We’re fortunate to have a film, “Still Dreaming,” by two of last year’s most popular filmmakers, Jilann Spitzmiller and Hank Rogerson, a husband-and-wife team from Santa Fe. Last year, their award-winning documentary “Shakespeare Behind Bars” gave Reel New Mexico its first Standing Room Only house. This year’s film documents the production of Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” in a New York assisted living facility for aging actors.
This will be a work-in-progress showing for feedback from the audience before the film goes to its final cut. We hope you can attend and we thank you in advance for any mention you can give this exciting production. If you need more information or would like to interview Jilann or Hank, please let me know.
The attached photo, “The Death of Thisbe,” is of 90-year-old Bob Evans in the role, shown with co-director Noah Brody, 39.

DANIEL LINK BAND – 12.12.12 CONCERT – THE PERFORMANCE SPACE AT ELDORADO

Santa Fe’s Brightest New Music Artist to Film Live Show

Santa Fe, NM. After releasing his latest CD Book of Shadows earlier this year, Daniel Link introduces his new band line-up in a special concert, which will be filmed at The Performance Space  at La Tienda on December 12, 2012. 7 to 8 PM. Tickets only $10. (Advanced tickets at danielLink.com or at the door)

After arriving in Santa Fe from Austin in 2010, it didn’t take long for Daniel’s musical and songwriting gifts to catch the eyes and ears of the upper echelons of the Santa Fe music community, including Vince Bell and Catfish Hodge (both making guest vocal performances on Daniel’s new CD) and Jono Manson, who co-produced Book of Shadows. Late this summer, when Daniel was ready to start doing local shows and regional touring, he decided to form a brand new musical entity, simply called “Daniel Link Band”. The line-up features local bad-asses Daniel Murphy on guitar and harmony vocals, Britt Alexander on drums, and John Perado on bass and harmony vocals.

“There are no stars in this band,” Daniel insists, “I made that clear with these guys from day one. Yeah, I wrote all the material, and yeah I am the primary front man, but I see that as what I contribute to the band as a whole. The truth is I have the utmost respect for each of them; this band is powerful…and with Daniel (Murphy), I am in awe to be standing next to him onstage…he is just as much a front man as I am in this band…not to mention one of the best guitarists and most creative spirits I’ve ever worked with. Period.”

The band wants to formally invite Santa Feto be a part of their early history and their first video as the Daniel Link Band. For more information, please visit www.daniellink.com.

Important Screening

The Womens Tree and La Tienda Present:

 

Miss Representation

Documentary Screening and Discussion

Saturday, November 17, 2012

6:30 pm – 9:00 pm

The Performance Space at La Tienda

Facilitated audience discussion follows the film.

Admission is free of charge. Donations are welcome.

Written and directed by Jennifer Siebel Newsom, the documentary Miss Representation exposes how mainstream media contribute to the under-representation of women in positions of power and influence in America. The film challenges the media’s limited and often disparaging portrayals of women and girls, which make it difficult for women to achieve leadership positions and for the average woman to feel powerful herself.

In a society where media is the most persuasive force shaping cultural norms, the collective message that our young women and men overwhelmingly receive is that a woman’s value and power lie in her youth, beauty, and sexuality, and not in her capacity as a leader. While women have made great strides in leadership over the past few decades, the United States is still 90th in the world for women.  Please help us educate and make a difference for the next generation of women.
