“Do You Wanna Stay in Your Little Room?”

An Interactive Work in Progress titled: 'Whispering Hearts‟

Kim Kalesti Author, Visionary Artist, Illustrator, Music Composer, Singer

Don Nelson LCSW - Discussion Facilitator

Tuesday, Dec. 6, 2016 - The Society of Jewish Science @7:00pm 109 East 39th Street, New York, New York 10016

A magical-musical thought provoking and emotional stirring event that touches all the senses. It can be described as a combination of philosophically framed poetry, accompanied by dream-like subliminal illustrations and haunting melodies.

Bring your spirit of adventure and wonderment to enjoy Kim Kalesti's inspiring music, poetry, and visions.

The working title of 'Whispering Hearts‟ evolved out of Kim's October event called „Thoughts Are Seeds‟. It‟s based upon the idea that we all have internal wants and needs that are looking for expression and understanding.

In the next event in December we will explore in multi-artistic ways how we all have a tendency to retreat into our internal space, sometimes isolating ourselves from others, including loved ones. The holidays are an ideal time to think about reconnecting.

Hence the title: „Do You Wanna Come Out of Your Little Room?'

This promises to be a fun, interactive and unique experience.
