In a Chicago junk shop, three men plot to rob a man of his coin collection, the showpiece of which is a valuable “Buffalo nickel.” These high-minded grifters fancy themselves businessmen pursuing legitimate free enterprise. But Donny, the oafish junk shop owner, Bobby, a young junkie Donny has taken under his wing, and “Teach,” a violently paranoid braggart, are merely pawns caught up in their own game of last-chance, dead-end, empty pipe dreams.

A three hour Martha Graham Technique Class & Creative Movement Study led by former Graham dancer Oliver Tobin. 


Martha Graham Technique Class

This class introduces dancers to the foundational principles of the Martha Graham Technique, emphasizing core elements such as contraction and release, spiral, opposition, and the dynamic use of weight. Through floor work, standing exercises, and center combinations, participants will explore the expressive power and physicality of this iconic modern dance technique, building strength and artistry.


Creative Movement Study

This portion of the workshop explores creating movements and phrases inspired by gesture, incorporating key elements of the Graham Technique: contraction and release, opposition, shifts of weight, and fall and recovery.


Oliver Tobin is a former dancer with the Martha Graham Dance Company, where he performed leading roles in Appalachian Spring, Clytemnestra, Diversion of Angels, El Penitente, and Embattled Garden, among others. His off-Broadway acting credits include The Kentucky Cycle, The Lesser Magoo, Nirvanov, and Tallahassee. As a Regisseur of the Graham repertoire, Oliver has restaged and directed works such as Celebration, Diversion of Angels, Episodes, Panorama, and Maple Leaf Rag. In 2019, he reimagined and choreographed Martha Graham’s American Document (1938), which premiered in Los Angeles. As the Director of Teens@Graham, he developed and taught technique and choreography programs for NYC performing arts schools, including Talent Unlimited High School, Frank Sinatra School of the Arts, Bronx Dance Academy, Urban Assembly School of the Arts, and the Martha Graham School. As a dancer and cultural ambassador with Battery Dance company, Oliver led modern dance choreography workshops throughout Germany and Africa. He has also served on the faculty at Adelphi University, Kaatsbaan, LaGuardia High School, and The Martha Graham School. In 2016, Oliver was named Director of Martha Graham Resources, overseeing the archival process of Graham's extensive collection, including costumes, production elements, images, ephemera, and personal items from 1894 to 2021. He relocated the physical collection to its permanent home at the NYPL Dance Division in January 2020. Additionally, he implemented a digital database to provide global access to Graham's legacy, facilitating licensing projects across theaters, film, television, galleries, museums, and educational institutions. Oliver graduated from the American Musical & Dramatic Academy, The Sivananda Yoga Institute, and Empire State College. He resides in Sherman and is the founder and owner of

HOMORGANIZED, a home and business organizing company.

The Butterfly Effect

The butterfly effect rests on the notion that the world is deeply interconnected, such that one small occurrence can influence a much larger complex system. Small things matter, and we are all connected to a bigger system.


A small gesture of kindness, a smiling face, a helping hand, could all make a difference in somebody’s life.


These simple examples are a part of a bigger picture and if we can just focus and pay more attention to these little details, we may be able to make our lives and the lives of others so much better.


  • Compliment the first three people you talk to today.
  • Send a positive text message to five different people.
  • Donate old towels or blankets to an animal shelter.
  • Let someone go in front of you in line.
  • Try to make sure every person in a group conversation feels included.
  • Smile at five strangers.
  • When you're throwing something away, pick up any litter around you and put that in the trash too.
  • Find opportunities to give compliments. It costs nothing, takes no time, and could make someone's entire day. Don't just think it. Say it.
  • Put your phone away while in the company of others.
  • Post inspirational sticky notes around your school or workplace.
  • Say hi to the person next to you.
  • Write a positive comment on your favorite blog, website, or friend's social media account.
  • Everyone is important. Learn the names of the people you see every day. Greet them by name. Say "hello" to strangers and smile.
  • When you hear that discouraging voice in your head, tell yourself something positive - you deserve kindness too!


These acts of kindness are so easy, and they almost always make people smile.

Odyssey of the Mind: The peak of beyond the box thinkers.


Mondays: Non-competitive session.

Thursdays: Competitive session that will go to the state tournament at Bethel Middle School March 29, 2025.


Non-Competitive

Odyssey of the Mind is a beyond the box creative problem solving adventure. Participants will develop and use their natural creativity to become problem-solvers that find original solutions to unique open-ended problems. 

In this class participants will begin to develop the fun and creative thinking skills that Odyssey of the Mind is built upon. For example: name things that break, if you had a million bars of soap, what would you do? And hands-on activities such as getting balls into containers of different sizes, building bridges between chairs, drawing a doodle and telling a story.


Competitive

Odyssey of the Mind 2024 Ready, set, Create! Looking to put your Odyssey of the mind out of the box thinking to the test? This class, teams will pick a long term problem from the OM 2024-25 program. Teams will design, build, and present their unique solution at the annual CT State Odyssey of the Mind Tournament at Bethel Middle School on Saturday, March 29th. This is a competition against other teams in the same problem and age division

If your child is interested in participating, there will be an open house on the first day, November 14 from 4:30-5pm to go over information and requirements, as well as give parents an opportunity to ask any questions they may have.

Donna has over 15 years of hands-on canine training experience. Donna works hard to help each dog guardian have the tools and knowledge needed to build a stronger and healthier relationship with their dog. www.tlcdogtrainer.com

*All classes require proof of rabies prior to the first class.

*Humans - No open toed shoes/sandals to class 


In response to the national atypical Canine Infectious Respiratory Disease Complex (CIRDC) we will be following guidelines as outlined by the Connecticut Department of Agriculture.


S.T.A.R. PUPPY - Tuesdays, 5:00-5:50 PM

The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy is an exciting program designed to get dog owners and their puppies off to a good start. The S.T.A.R. puppy program includes the following: basic puppy-raising information (jumping, house training, nipping...), basic obedience skills, how to better communicate and understand the language of dogs, and what is needed for responsible pet ownership. This program is designed for dogs less than 7 months in age who have not had any prior group experience.


TWEENER - Tuesdays, 6:00-6:50 PM

Is your dog 7 months or older and never attended a basic obedience class? Then this is the group class for you! The Tweener class will cover all basic obedience skills (including how to infuse these skills as part of everyday life), how to better communicate with and understand the language of dogs, and what is needed for responsible pet ownership.

*This is not a reactive dog class. Each dog needs to be privately evaluated by the instructor.


Basic Obedience 1 - Thursdays, 5:00-5:50 PM

Has your dog completed the prerequisite class of either the S.T.A.R. Puppy or Tweener Class and you're looking for the next level of training? Then this is the group class for you! The Basic Obedience 1 class takes the skills learned in the Star Puppy / Tweener Class to the next level. We revisit all the skills you have learned - increasing difficulty and reliability of performance. This fun class uses games which support teaching our dogs good manners while having fun at the same time!!


Basic Obedience 2 - Thursdays, 6:00-6:50 PM

If you have completed  the prerequisite class Basic Obedience 1 and want to start preparing for the Canine Good Citizen class - then this is the group for you. This class focuses on enhancing your leash work skills, how to increase your dog's ability to follow cues with various levels of distractions, as well as how to start getting more behavior for less rewards. You will also learn how to teach your dog to listen to cues from a distance rather than just right in front of you.

The Butterfly Effect

The butterfly effect rests on the notion that the world is deeply interconnected, such that one small occurrence can influence a much larger complex system. Small things matter, and we are all connected to a bigger system.


A small gesture of kindness, a smiling face, a helping hand, could all make a difference in somebody’s life.


These simple examples are a part of a bigger picture and if we can just focus and pay more attention to these little details, we may be able to make our lives and the lives of others so much better.


  • Compliment the first three people you talk to today.
  • Send a positive text message to five different people.
  • Donate old towels or blankets to an animal shelter.
  • Let someone go in front of you in line.
  • Try to make sure every person in a group conversation feels included.
  • Smile at five strangers.
  • When you're throwing something away, pick up any litter around you and put that in the trash too.
  • Find opportunities to give compliments. It costs nothing, takes no time, and could make someone's entire day. Don't just think it. Say it.
  • Put your phone away while in the company of others.
  • Post inspirational sticky notes around your school or workplace.
  • Say hi to the person next to you.
  • Write a positive comment on your favorite blog, website, or friend's social media account.
  • Everyone is important. Learn the names of the people you see every day. Greet them by name. Say "hello" to strangers and smile.
  • When you hear that discouraging voice in your head, tell yourself something positive - you deserve kindness too!


These acts of kindness are so easy, and they almost always make people smile.

Adult Bible Study Group: Gospel Groundwork 5th class

Led by Pastor Scott Cheney

Gospel Groundwork is a 5-week course that takes you through the 5 basics of Christianity. Through this course, you will be paired with a Gospel Groundwork Coach who will be with you every step of the way to help explain some of the course material as well as answer any questions you may have. Gospel Groundwork is a perfect "next step" after you make the decision to follow Christ, but is also a good course for those who may have been saved for a while, but want to grow deeper in their relationship with Christ and have a firmer understanding of what it means to follow Him.

Donna has over 15 years of hands-on canine training experience. Donna works hard to help each dog guardian have the tools and knowledge needed to build a stronger and healthier relationship with their dog. www.tlcdogtrainer.com

*All classes require proof of rabies prior to the first class.

*Humans - No open toed shoes/sandals to class 


In response to the national atypical Canine Infectious Respiratory Disease Complex (CIRDC) we will be following guidelines as outlined by the Connecticut Department of Agriculture.


S.T.A.R. PUPPY - Tuesdays, 5:00-5:50 PM

The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy is an exciting program designed to get dog owners and their puppies off to a good start. The S.T.A.R. puppy program includes the following: basic puppy-raising information (jumping, house training, nipping...), basic obedience skills, how to better communicate and understand the language of dogs, and what is needed for responsible pet ownership. This program is designed for dogs less than 7 months in age who have not had any prior group experience.


TWEENER - Tuesdays, 6:00-6:50 PM

Is your dog 7 months or older and never attended a basic obedience class? Then this is the group class for you! The Tweener class will cover all basic obedience skills (including how to infuse these skills as part of everyday life), how to better communicate with and understand the language of dogs, and what is needed for responsible pet ownership.

*This is not a reactive dog class. Each dog needs to be privately evaluated by the instructor.


Basic Obedience 1 - Thursdays, 5:00-5:50 PM

Has your dog completed the prerequisite class of either the S.T.A.R. Puppy or Tweener Class and you're looking for the next level of training? Then this is the group class for you! The Basic Obedience 1 class takes the skills learned in the Star Puppy / Tweener Class to the next level. We revisit all the skills you have learned - increasing difficulty and reliability of performance. This fun class uses games which support teaching our dogs good manners while having fun at the same time!!


Basic Obedience 2 - Thursdays, 6:00-6:50 PM

If you have completed  the prerequisite class Basic Obedience 1 and want to start preparing for the Canine Good Citizen class - then this is the group for you. This class focuses on enhancing your leash work skills, how to increase your dog's ability to follow cues with various levels of distractions, as well as how to start getting more behavior for less rewards. You will also learn how to teach your dog to listen to cues from a distance rather than just right in front of you.

In a Chicago junk shop, three men plot to rob a man of his coin collection, the showpiece of which is a valuable “Buffalo nickel.” These high-minded grifters fancy themselves businessmen pursuing legitimate free enterprise. But Donny, the oafish junk shop owner, Bobby, a young junkie Donny has taken under his wing, and “Teach,” a violently paranoid braggart, are merely pawns caught up in their own game of last-chance, dead-end, empty pipe dreams.

The Butterfly Effect

The butterfly effect rests on the notion that the world is deeply interconnected, such that one small occurrence can influence a much larger complex system. Small things matter, and we are all connected to a bigger system.


A small gesture of kindness, a smiling face, a helping hand, could all make a difference in somebody’s life.


These simple examples are a part of a bigger picture and if we can just focus and pay more attention to these little details, we may be able to make our lives and the lives of others so much better.


  • Compliment the first three people you talk to today.
  • Send a positive text message to five different people.
  • Donate old towels or blankets to an animal shelter.
  • Let someone go in front of you in line.
  • Try to make sure every person in a group conversation feels included.
  • Smile at five strangers.
  • When you're throwing something away, pick up any litter around you and put that in the trash too.
  • Find opportunities to give compliments. It costs nothing, takes no time, and could make someone's entire day. Don't just think it. Say it.
  • Put your phone away while in the company of others.
  • Post inspirational sticky notes around your school or workplace.
  • Say hi to the person next to you.
  • Write a positive comment on your favorite blog, website, or friend's social media account.
  • Everyone is important. Learn the names of the people you see every day. Greet them by name. Say "hello" to strangers and smile.
  • When you hear that discouraging voice in your head, tell yourself something positive - you deserve kindness too!


These acts of kindness are so easy, and they almost always make people smile.

Spring is in the Air—Gallery 25 in The Historic Train Station presents Art in Bloom!

As the days grow warmer and Spring 2025 approaches, Gallery 25 is excited to invite you to our Annual Spring Show: Art in Bloom. From February 7th through April 27th, the gallery will showcase works from our talented member artists in a variety of mediums, including paintings, glass art, collages, mixed media, photography, woodworking, jewelry, and much more. It’s a vibrant collection you won’t want to miss!

Opening Reception:

Join us for the opening reception on Saturday, February 8th, from 4-6 pm. Be among the first to view the new artwork, enjoy light refreshments, and sip wine while mingling with the artists and fellow art enthusiasts.

We’re thrilled to welcome Robin Le as the newest member of Gallery 25! Robin’s paintings have evolved from expressive portraits of women and animals, celebrating their strength and beauty, to her current series of abstract works strongly influenced by nature. Her process involves multiple intuitive mixed media layers, often refined with oils, aiming for a dynamic interplay of movement, depth, and a rich exploration of textures and colors. Come check out Robin’s unique creations in our Spring Show!

Artist Workshops:

Gallery 25 is also offering several exciting workshops for those looking to tap into their own creativity:

Learn to Paint Gouache with Liz Rosiello: Thursdays, February 13th, 20th & 27th, 6 pm–8 pm

Alcohol Ink Workshop with Adele Moros: Sunday, February 16th, 1 pm–3 pm

Experience the Pottery Wheel: Make a Small Bowl with Roberta Ahuja: Saturday, April 4th, 1 pm–5:30 pm

A Weekend in the Life: April 11th–13th—A weekend of exciting community events in New Milford.

Make it a Weekend Getaway!

Mondays: Non-competitive session.


Non-Competitive

Odyssey of the Mind is a beyond the box creative problem solving adventure. Participants will develop and use their natural creativity to become problem-solvers that find original solutions to unique open-ended problems.

S.T.A.R. PUPPY - Tuesdays, 5:00-5:50 PM

The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy is an exciting program designed to get dog owners and their puppies off to a good start. The S.T.A.R. puppy program includes the following: basic puppy-raising information (jumping, house training, nipping...), basic obedience skills, how to better communicate and understand the language of dogs, and what is needed for responsible pet ownership. This program is designed for dogs less than 7 months in age who have not had any prior group experience.


TWEENER - Tuesdays, 6:00-6:50 PM

Is your dog 7 months or older and never attended a basic obedience class? Then this is the group class for you! The Tweener class will cover all basic obedience skills (including how to infuse these skills as part of everyday life), how to better communicate with and understand the language of dogs, and what is needed for responsible pet ownership.

*This is not a reactive dog class. Each dog needs to be privately evaluated by the instructor.


Basic Obedience 1 - Thursdays, 5:00-5:50 PM

Has your dog completed the prerequisite class of either the S.T.A.R. Puppy or Tweener Class and you're looking for the next level of training? Then this is the group class for you! The Basic Obedience 1 class takes the skills learned in the Star Puppy / Tweener Class to the next level. We revisit all the skills you have learned - increasing difficulty and reliability of performance. This fun class uses games which support teaching our dogs good manners while having fun at the same time!!


Basic Obedience 2 - Thursdays, 6:00-6:50 PM

If you have completed  the prerequisite class Basic Obedience 1 and want to start preparing for the Canine Good Citizen class - then this is the group for you. This class focuses on enhancing your leash work skills, how to increase your dog's ability to follow cues with various levels of distractions, as well as how to start getting more behavior for less rewards. You will also learn how to teach your dog to listen to cues from a distance rather than just right in front of you.

In this empowering first session, we will work together to create a specific goal tied to something you are passionate about or currently working on. You will gain clarity on your objective, uncover potential obstacles, and develop a personalized plan to make your goal attainable. We will address what's standing in your way and set you up for success in the year ahead! 

Consistency is key to turning goals into achievements. In this follow-up session, we will check in on your progress, discuss what's working, and identify areas where adjustments are needed.

Adult Bible Study Group:

Led by Pastor Scott Cheney

Gospel Groundwork is a 5-week course that takes you through the 5 basics of Christianity. Through this course, you will be paired with a Gospel Groundwork Coach who will be with you every step of the way to help explain some of the course material as well as answer any questions you may have. Gospel Groundwork is a perfect "next step" after you make the decision to follow Christ, but is also a good course for those who may have been saved for a while, but want to grow deeper in their relationship with Christ and have a firmer understanding of what it means to follow Him.

S.T.A.R. PUPPY - Tuesdays, 5:00-5:50 PM

The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy is an exciting program designed to get dog owners and their puppies off to a good start. The S.T.A.R. puppy program includes the following: basic puppy-raising information (jumping, house training, nipping...), basic obedience skills, how to better communicate and understand the language of dogs, and what is needed for responsible pet ownership. This program is designed for dogs less than 7 months in age who have not had any prior group experience.


TWEENER - Tuesdays, 6:00-6:50 PM

Is your dog 7 months or older and never attended a basic obedience class? Then this is the group class for you! The Tweener class will cover all basic obedience skills (including how to infuse these skills as part of everyday life), how to better communicate with and understand the language of dogs, and what is needed for responsible pet ownership.

*This is not a reactive dog class. Each dog needs to be privately evaluated by the instructor.


Basic Obedience 1 - Thursdays, 5:00-5:50 PM

Has your dog completed the prerequisite class of either the S.T.A.R. Puppy or Tweener Class and you're looking for the next level of training? Then this is the group class for you! The Basic Obedience 1 class takes the skills learned in the Star Puppy / Tweener Class to the next level. We revisit all the skills you have learned - increasing difficulty and reliability of performance. This fun class uses games which support teaching our dogs good manners while having fun at the same time!!


Basic Obedience 2 - Thursdays, 6:00-6:50 PM

If you have completed  the prerequisite class Basic Obedience 1 and want to start preparing for the Canine Good Citizen class - then this is the group for you. This class focuses on enhancing your leash work skills, how to increase your dog's ability to follow cues with various levels of distractions, as well as how to start getting more behavior for less rewards. You will also learn how to teach your dog to listen to cues from a distance rather than just right in front of you.



Residents $250, Non-residents $275
