SUMMARY:Concert: Michael Tiernan @ Vision
DESCRIPTION:Michael Tiernan @ Vision. Saturday\, April 26 at 7:00 pm\nMeet Michael Tiernan. Through the experiences of what could be ten lifetimes\, Michael is an artist who has plunged into and explored the deep spaces of personal and worldly conflict\, the beauty of love and nature\, as well as the meaning of suffering and pervasive unhappiness that threatens our human experience on all sides. In his music\, he resurfaces from these depths beaming with a positive outlook for all of us. Throughout Tiernan’s career\, he has seamlessly melded elements of folk\, reggae\, bluegrass\, blues\, soul\, and modern pop rock into his own brand of acoustic guitar-centric music. Bart Mendoza from the San Diego reader comments\, “Tiernan’s rep grows with each release. Crucial to his success is that he’s a great all-around entertainer\, from musicianship to between-song banter. All of his albums to date have won or been nominated for music awards around the country\, but it’s his live set that’s helped Tiernan become one the area’s most popular singer-songwriters.” The San Diego Troubadour notes Tiernan’s releases are “relentlessly catchy\, slickly produced pop that reflects Michael Tiernan’s ability as a master of hooks – and it has something to say.” Tiernan has received international airplay of many of his releases over the years\, as well as several placements of his music in national TV shows. 2025 finds Michael performing in support of his 8th studio album\, “For Others” a collection of Custom Songs that he has written for other people\, based on in-depth interviews and deep dives into the inspiring stories of others. \n Enjoy a refreshing beverage or cushioned chairs to sit and watch the concert in comfort.  Refreshments will be available at Cafe V. \nThere is also an option to watch from home so you can be in the comfort of your own place\nGeneral Admission – ($30) or Streaming Donation\n \n

SUMMARY:Special Movie Night - "Carving The Divine"
DESCRIPTION:Carving the Divine is a documentary film that offers a rare look into a 1400-year-old Buddhist woodcarving tradition and the practitioners struggling to preserve its legacy in a rapidly changing Japan. \nDetermined to pass his craft down to future generations\, Master Koun Seki\, the former apprentice of renowned Busshi\, Kourin Saito\, interviews a candidate applying to be his new apprentice. Quickly though\, we discover this apprenticeship and the Busshi’s life to be far less glamorous\, and much more austere\, than we (or the Candidate) would’ve likely imagined. \nOnce Master Seki makes his selection\, we’re taken on a trip through a guild culture unlike anything existing today in The West: From the growing pains of a novice apprentice\, to the entire guild working together as one body to create breathtaking works of art\, to the monkish practice of the famed\, Grand Master Saito himself\, alone on his quest to “leave nothing but great works behind.” \nJoin us for a special event featuring an award-winning documentary about Japan’s most significant spiritual art tradition. Following the screening\, Director Yujiro Seki and Philosopher Peter Bolland will lead a discussion and Q&A exploring the inner spiritual realization within us all. \n \n \nWhat the audience get out of this event\nOn the surface\, the film appears to be a cultural exploration of Buddhist statues created by modern Japanese sculptors working in an ancient millennium-old tradition. At a deeper level\, however\, it offers a rare opportunity for self-reflection. As we navigate life\, we often focus on the external world while neglecting our inner world—where true peace and happiness reside. One of the vital purposes of Buddhist statues is to challenge us to ask life’s most fundamental questions: “Who are you? What is the purpose of your life?” These questions help us connect with our true selves. While viewers typically watch the film and internalize the experience on their own\, this special event goes further with an intimate discussion and Q&A session featuring director Yujiro Seki and philosophical teacher Peter Bolland. Together\, we will explore profound existential questions about our human existence and our connection to the universal self. \nTushar Gandhi\, author and great-grandson of Mahatma Gandhi and Kasturba Gandhi\, viewed Carving the Divine and was deeply impressed\, offering a heartfelt endorsement. As a prominent peace advocate who speaks worldwide\, Gandhi maintains a careful reputation and only endorses work he truly believes in. His sincere appreciation for the film’s merit led to his thoughtful statement. We welcome you to share his endorsement\, as spiritually conscious people will recognize the value of the endorsement of the great-grandson of Mahatma Gandhi.\n“Saw ‘Carving the Divine’\, a beautifully-made documentary by Yujiro Seki. I thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful documentary. My compliments to the director. He has beautifully portrayed the spiritual aspect of Buddhism through the learning of the sculptures and the evolution of both Master and apprentice in the art of sculpting as well as in the realization of the deep spirituality inherent in that art form and the deep understanding of Buddhism both Indian as well as Japanese. It is a feast for the eyes\, mind and soul. My compliments to all who are associated with creating such a beautiful work of art.” Tushar Gandhi\, author and the great-grandson of Mahatma Gandhi & Kasturba Gandhi \nCarving the Divine’s impressive achievements deserve recognition. This is no ordinary documentary – its consistent selection by prestigious institutions demonstrates the film’s exceptional quality and impact. The widespread acclaim and continued recognition speak to something truly remarkable about this work.\nCarving the Divine has been selected for 33 film festivals across 22 countries and has won 13 awards worldwide\, including the Best Director Award for Foreign Language Documentary at World Cinema Milan.

SUMMARY:Movie Night - "Will & Harper"
DESCRIPTION:Three years ago\, Will Ferrell was filming a movie when he received a most surprising email: his‬ dear friend of nearly 30 years was coming out to him as a trans woman.‬ That friend was Harper Steele\, a writer he met on his first day at‬‭ Saturday Night Live‬‭ back in 1995.‬ From that fateful first meeting in the halls of 30 Rock\, Will knew he had found a match made in‬ comedy\, and their friendship and creative partnership would only continue to grow over the next 3‬ decades.‬ In this intimate\, honest\, and heartfelt documentary\, Will and Harper hit the open road together to‬ process this new stage of their friendship and reintroduce Harper to the country that she loves –‬ this time\, as herself. Over 16 days\, the two drive from New York to LA\, visiting stops that are‬ meaningful to them\, to their friendship\, and to America. Through laughter\, tears\, and many cans of‬ Pringles\, they push past their comfort zones as they re-examine their relationships to these‬ spaces\, and to each other\, in this new light.‬ \n \n\nHost: TK Ekrom\nFresh Popcorn will be served by our new popcorn popper
