    EVENT DETAILS: Is your pet constantly scratching, licking, or dealing with chronic ear infections? Join Dr. Katy Miller DVM, a veterinarian and nutritionist, to learn how to tackle the "itch factor". This class breaks down why pets get itchy and gives you a clear game plan to help them feel comfortable again.
    What we’ll cover:
    • Identifying the Signs: Learn to spot everything from "hot spots" and hair loss to gassy tummies and paw licking.
    • The "Allergy Stacking" Strategy: Most pets have multiple triggers; find out how to lower their "allergen load" to stop symptoms before they start.
    • The Big Three: A deep dive into flea saliva reactions, food sensitivities, and environmental triggers like pollen or dust mites.
    • Dietary Trials: Get the facts on how to run a real elimination diet using novel or hydrolyzed proteins to identify food triggers.
    • Practical Management: Tips for supporting the skin barrier with Omega-3s and probiotics, plus home hacks like washing bedding and wiping paws.

    Stop the cycle of inflammation and trauma and leave with a personalized Allergy Action Plan for your pet.

    Have questions for the expert? You'll also have an opportunity to ask questions and get advice from Dr. Katy Miller at our Live Q+A at the end of the presentation.

  • Join us for an evening of reflection, and prayerful journaling prompts. Connect with sisters in the community we have been through, went through, and overcame. Witness powerful stories and testimonies to continue your walk in Christ.
  • This participatory Origami workshop uses paper printed with my own self-portrait. Initially, my facial features appear fragmented across the flat surface of the paper, but as folds accumulate, the image shifts, becoming alternately obscured, reconfigured and unexpectedly coherent. Participants will actively shape the portrait into several different traditional designs, some of which are interactive, emphasizing identity as something formed through gesture, pressure and process rather than fixed representation.
    By combining origami designs with self-portrait imagery, the workshop introduces themes of repetition, transformation and multiplicity that are central to my broader mask-making practice and connects to my Japanese Canadian heritage. Rooted in play and ritual, the activity invites participants to engage with identity through material interaction and spatial manipulation, foregrounding touch, movement and making as forms of self-expression beyond realism.
    The workshop will be hands on and guided step by step in a small group, so no prior origami experience is necessary. The origami designs that you fold can be seen in the current exhibition "Like everything alive that we try to hold forever", and will be yours to keep!
    Workshops will take place in-person at FSU MOFA, while I join you all virtually from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Space is limited and registration is required.
