MAGNT Meeting
Saturday, Jan. 12, 2008
10 AM to noon

Unity South Church
7950 First Ave. So.
Bloomington, 55420

Topic: Can We Stop Pretending?
MASKS and IDENTITY

Are you a Marilyn Monroe? A James Dean? Meryl Streep? Nicole Kidman? Walter Matthau? Most of us have many identities. Most of us wear masks.

Which of your masks are you aware of? Have you ever experienced yourself as maskless?

At the January MAGNT meeting, Ira Gordon will lead us through a sort of identity laboratory. It will also be a masque - a multi media entertainment - a celebration, and a party

Via a film clip, group discussion, and several theater exercises, we will attempt to catch a glimpse of ourselves -- our true selves -- from an unfamiliar angle. We will also examine our neglected roles, the identities that we may want to incorporate into the dramas that are our lives.

You are invited to bring with you:
-- the picture of an actor or actress with whom you identify
-- the picture of someone -- whether a celebrity or a "regular" person –who represents the opposite of the YOU with whom you and others are most familiar.

Ira L. Gordon is a sometime playwright, an amateur dancer and a student of how we reveal and conceal ourselves.

Saturday MAGNT meetings are free and open to the public. No need to pre-register. Just come and be warmly included. MAGNT is the Minnesota chapter of the Association for Global New Thought. Its purpose is to inspire, inform and empower people to create an awakened world. MAGNT is supported by local Unity and Religious Science churches..

Come to learn, to play, to ask questions, and to engage in spirited conversation with the group.

We look forward to seeing you:
