LELA promotes peace by bringing together artists from across the globe to celebrate the universal human spirit through the transformative power of artistic expression.
Artists reinterpret personal experiences, world events, and creative expression by shifting perspective and seeing familiar ideas in new ways. Through inventive materials and imagery, this exhibition invites viewers to reconsider what freedom can mean.
We build bridges across diverse cultures, nurturing a peaceful and inclusive global community with meaningful relationships.

DON'T KIT-NAP KITTENS A kitten's best chance for survival is staying with mom. If you come across a kitten or litter of kittens remember the rule of 8. • If mom is away more than 8 hours, the kittens are likely orphaned and in need of human care. • Encourage mom to return. Do not hover and maintain a distance of at least 8 feet. • At 8 weeks old, kittens (and mom) should be spayed/neutered and can be adopted.
Contact your local shelter or a veterinarian if kittens are visibly sick or injured.

FEATURED PETS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION Boots and Sneakers
Bruce
Meet Boots and Sneakers, the ultimate best-friend duo. Boots, a 5-year-old German Shepherd/ Husky mix, is brave, curious, and always ready to greet you. Sneakers, her 6-year-old Alaskan Husky sister, may be shy at first but quickly warms up with sweet kisses. This wellmannered pair is full of love and adventure and ready to find a forever home together!
Two years in the making, and Bruce is finally ready! This resilient guy arrived at the shelter in rough shape, but he’s spent his time here growing back his fur and his confidence. Bruce is a volunteer favorite who loves a good hike and a cozy nap. While he does require a special diet for his allergies, he’s a 'set it and forget it' kind of companion—low-key, loving, and 100% recovered.

TEEN & ADULT CLASSES
Yoga Stretch & Meditate Sound Bath and Beyond
This class begins with gentle moves/stretches to open awareness and create energy flow. The sound bath retunes, balances energy centers in the body, and calms the central nervous system. The effects of sound can be very powerful and experiencing them in close proximity to the body promotes healing, relaxation, and a deeper meditation practice. Required materials: mat, blanket, pillow, and eye mask Instructor: Anne Jackson Joslyn Adult Center Age(s)
