Join Us at CreativeMornings Monterey on December 15th: Unpacking Pain with Dr. Susan Swick and the Musical Artistry of Wendi Kirby.

Hey CreativeMornings Community,

Winter is upon us, and we’re excited to announce an event that’s not just a regular meeting; it’s a heartfelt journey into understanding and embracing the complexity of ’Pain.’ And guess what? We’re heading on a field trip to a new, inspiring location – Wendi Kirby Music in Monterey!

About Our Keynote Speaker: Dr. Susan Swick, MD, MPH
This December 15th, prepare to be enlightened by our keynote speaker, Dr. Susan Swick. She’s the force behind Ohana, a center for child and adolescent behavioral health at the Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula. Dr. Swick isn’t just a medical professional; she’s a visionary, leading the creation of vital mental health resources. Her expertise, drawn from years of dedicated practice, including her significant role at Newton Wellesley Hospital and her contribution to Harvard Medical School, brings a wealth of knowledge and insight to our theme of ‘Pain.’

Musical Depth by Wendi Kirby
To complement our profound topic, we have the incredible Wendi Kirby bringing her musical magic. Wendi, an award-winning musician recognized by the Music Teachers National Association and recipient of the Steinway Top Teacher Award in 2021, will be gracing us with her talent. A master of classical music, Wendi’s recent album “Bloom” showcases her skill in creating emotionally resonant classical vignettes. With over 30 years of teaching experience and numerous leadership roles in music education, her performance will be as enlightening as it is meaningful.

A New Venue to Inspire
Our new venue, Wendi Kirby Music on Hartnell Street, isn’t just a location; it’s a new hub of creative education and intimate musical experiences. Offering a range of musical education programs and hosting various artistic events, this venue is a perfect match for our CreativeMornings theme.

A Heartfelt Thank You
Before we get lost in the excitement of our new venue, let’s take a moment to appreciate Rhett and Judy from Wave Street Studios. Their unwavering support has been a cornerstone of our journey, and we look forward to returning to their space in the future.

Ready for an Enlightening Morning?
So, mark your calendars for December 15th. Come for the insights, stay for the music, and leave with a renewed perspective on 'Pain.’ Let’s gather, learn, share, and grow together!

We can’t wait to see you there!

Danny & the CreativeMornings Monterey Peninsula Team
