PSA:  Conflict Resolution Day
CONTACT:  Char Luther    541.751.9666 or
cdn2n@n2nmediaiton.com                    CONFLICT RESOLUTION DAY is OCTOBER 16, 2014
Conflicts are a normal part of life; how we deal with them can make a big difference. Often when people resolve conflicts, one person ends up a winner, and one loses out. This may solve the problem for the moment, but resentment and bad feelings can cause more problems later. Another way to look at conflicts is to try to find a WIN-WIN solution, in which both sides can benefit. In this way, conflicts are turned into opportunities to grow and make things better. This approach is the cornerstone of "conflict resolution" - an important tool for bringing peace into our personal lives, our communities and to our world.
NEIGHBOR to NEIGHBOR MEDIATION SERVICES offers a prompt, efficient, affordable means of resolving disputes by helping people talk to each other in a thoughtful, productive manner.  Mediation helps individuals, businesses, neighbors and families with a variety of conflicts to discuss important issues and reach a resolution that is acceptable to everyone.
Conflict Resolution Day (observed on the third Thursday in October) is the perfect opportunity to raise awareness about the importance of learning the tools and skills that can help us all to work out our differences peacefully.

Rose Burch is an accomplished professional freelance artist with a Masters in Fine Art.  Rose resides quietly in the Northwest, where she has been an instrument through which art and the written word flow and where she draws the creative process from within as an artist and facilitator of art exploration.  Rose presents art and the written word as a locution and courier of that which might not otherwise be observed or visually embraced.  Her work endeavors to validate and encourage life … itself alive and vibrant!  Creative expressions reveal images of conceptual, symbolical, and allegorical significance molded into existence through water, watercolor pigment, and the color of light.  Her works are acclaimed in corporate and private collections and exhibits in the USA and internationally.  She
 
Local fiber artist Theresa Richards Chickering Theresa began making traditional quilts approximately 25 years ago.  To keep her craft interesting and fresh she is always exploring the use of different techniques and material.  Today she combines contemporary quilting and mixed  media  techniques with such non traditional materials as her own hand dyed, stamped, and painted fabrics.  Theresa's favorite subjects include realistic landscapes and other nature based subjects but occasionally a more abstract piece finds it way into the mix.  Theresa loves the challenge of making her pieces have as much depth and dimension as possible, so that the viewer is amazed that the piece is made with fabric.
