Community Mental Health IN THIS ISSUE Page 3 for a Healthy Community MINELAB: OpeningEarth's New Frontiers for Treasures Celebrating Mental Health Month

By Patti Albrecht, Owner of Earth’s Treasures

By Jessica Bayramian Byerly Initiated in 1949 to inform Americans about mental illness, Mental Health Month provides an annual platform for education, enlightenment and acceptance, while reminding those impacted by mental illness to recommit to advocacy, reform and recovery. Mental Health Month also provides an excellent opportunity to reflect on one’s own mental health and on the policies and politics that impact our community and country.

A pandemic of epic proportions, mental illness strikes worldwide regardless of age, gender, race and ethnicity. The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), the nation’s largest grassroots mental health organization, reports that mental illness impacts the lives of at least one in five adults, or 43.7 million people. And of that 43.7, 13.6 million live with a serious mental illness such as schizophrenia, major depression or bipolar disorder, which costs America $193.2 billion in lost earnings annually. The 10th leading cause of death in the U.S. – more common than homicide – and the second leading cause of death for people aged 15 to 24, suicide claims the lives of an estimated 18 to 22 of our nation’s veterans each day. Since the deinstitutionalization of mental health services in the 1950s – and subsequent passage of the Community Mental Health Centers Act in 1963

Since long ago, mankind has had the desire to find treasure. In the past, this required maps, legends or a whole lot of digging and hoping to find something. Today, metal detectors give us the unique opportunity to glimpse beneath the surface of the ground without breaking a sweat. Since the value of treasurehealth is in the eye of the beholder, community-based mental treatment hasit is personal preference that will dictate whether treasure hunters search for coins/relics nuggets and, as a replaced institutionalized care andor gold vastly result, which brand of metal detector will best fulfill improved the quality of life for those those needs.

Create Watercolors from your Favorites iPhone Images? Just App It! If you have an iPhone, you have an impressive collection of photographs you’ve taken with it. Get creative with these “best of” apps to create watercolors from your favorites; it’s one of the best ways to chill out on a night when you just need to rest and regroup. Why not just use the Photos app on your iPhone? If you want to turn your photos into real works of printable, framable art, you need to go beyond a standard filter. By the way, you don’t need to be inherently artistic. Maybe you would never pick up a brush and try to paint a watercolor, but the following apps make it simple to create a masterpiece in minutes from the archive of photographs on your iPhone or iPad. Look these up on the iTunes app store and give them a try: Glaze, Popsicolor, Brushstroke and Repix. Each gives you slightly different tools. Trying out the same photo in each allows you to get familiar with what that app has to offer. If you have an image with a lot of detail, apping it can help you to simplify, focusing on a particular part or aspect of the photograph, removing the background and making the foreground more subtle. You can app a photo so that it looks like a new image, smooth out surfaces, add texture or include fun objects, like a bird or random dandelion fairy-seeds. Or create a retro look. When you combine apps, you’ll get a completely unique look. Allow yourself to play – just play – and see what happens. Enjoy the process, the relaxed, almost meditative nature of it. For inspiration, check out the iPhone gallery at sandranykerk.com. You may end up with an image that looks like a watercolor or art print, which is especially fun when you print to different textures of paper. As you gather a portfolio of images you want to show off, consider setting up changeable displays on the walls of your living or work space. Create your own collage wall by choosing varied sizes of frames that share a theme or color. Or go for the gusto with Collagewall, a product available at F-11 Photographic Supplies. It beautifully displays varied sizes of images printed to metal and makes it simple to trade them out whenever you have something new and awesome to add. Apped photos can be submitted for printing just like a “regular” images. Who knew you could have so much fun with your images?

Liberty On the Border: A Civil War Exhibit. Now Open! Liberty on the Border presents new insights into the events leading up to the war, the war years, and the “politics of memory” that have occurred from post-war to modern day. The exhibit looks closely at the physical border that separated slave states from free states, particularly Ohio from Kentucky, and explores the wide spectrum of attitudes of the people in those areas. Because of its strong focus on non-military events as well as the war itself, the exhibit puts the causes, effects, and meaning of the war into more personal terms.

Catch Edgy Indie Films This Spring! With Bozeman Film Society The Bozeman Film Society (BFS) has five film screenings slated this spring, including a special free event in collaboration with MSU’s School of Film and Photography and a fabulous screening with the Gallatin Ice Foundation.

What We Do in the Shadows Thursday, April 9th, 7:30PM Emerson’s Crawford Theater Tickets: $8/General, $7/Students & Seniors It’s hard out there for a vampire. Sunlight’s a (literal) pain, dining on human blood can get messy, and primping for a night out on the town is tricky when you can’t see your own reflection in a mirror. Aside from these supernatural hang-ups, Flight of the Conchords’ Taikia Waititi and Jemaine Clement’s rollicking mockumentary What We Do in the Shadows shows us that bloodsuckers have more banal problems, too—like getting along with roommates. Not Rated, the film runs 86 minutes. Doors open at 7PM. Tickets are available online and in-store at Cactus Records, and in the Emerson lobby one hour before the film. Enjoy a no-host social with drinks and pizzetta l in the lobby from 6:30 to 7:30PM.

Bella Vista Thursday, April 16th, 7PM MSU’s Gaines Hall Tickets: FREE Bozeman Film Society and MSU School of Film and Photography team up to bring Missoula-based filmmaker Vera Brunner-Sung to Bozeman for a free screening and discussion of her first fiction feature, Bella Vista. Shot in Missoula, the film premiered at the 2014 International Film Festival Rotterdam. Thirty-something Doris, who teaches English to a group of

international students in Missoula, finds herself increasingly alone. While she grasps for the connection that might save her, her students understand what it takes to belong. Brunner-Sung (writer/director/producer) has shown her award-winning short experimental documentaries at festivals, galleries, and museums around the world. “With a beautifully photographic eye, provocative shifts in perspective, and a sensory approach to questions of location, history, and language, Bella Vista is a remarkable debut that puts Brunner-Sung on the feature-film map, no doubt ready to drift onto another.” – Christina Ree, San Diego Asian Film Festival. An Evening of Song and Dance: Ballet 422 and The Wrecking Crew Thursday, April 23rd, 6:30PM Emerson’s Crawford Theater Tickets: $5 and $8/$7, respectively Enjoy “An Evening of Song and Dance” at the Emerson, as BFS presents two acclaimed documentaries: Ballet 422 and The Wrecking Crew. Ballet 422 shadows Justin Peck, the 25-year-old choreographer of the New York City Ballet, as he undertakes the Herculean task of creating the company’s 422nd original piece, while simultaneously fulfilling his role as a Corps de Ballet member. Rated PG, the film runs 72 minutes. Tickets are $5. At 7:45 pm, catch the awesome rockumentary, The Wrecking Crew. What the Funk Brothers did for Motown, The Wrecking Crew did—only bigger— for the West Coast Sound. The favorite songs of a generation are all here, presented by the people who created them. PG, 95 minutes. Tickets are $8/ General and $7/Seniors & Students.

“We really believe in creating community first, and nurturing campers to become amazing young people,” says Co-Camp Director Soren Kisiel. “Theatre and comedy are just terrific ways to do it.”

Kisiel and his wife Katie Goodman do everything together. They built Pu the camp, ran what is now the Tw Verge Theatre (under the previous Fr name The Equinox Theatre) for Ti over 12 years, co-write and direct stu the nationally touring professional W satire company Broad Comedy, and co-wrote a new musical Or with the Pulitzer-Prize winning Su political cartoonist of the Washington Post, Tom Toles. You may have seen them in the Spontaneous po Combustibles, the improv comedy troupe they founded that has performed at Sweet Pea for 20 years the running. They met in a play at college, and have never stopped working to teach and create new theatreyo since. They were even nominated for a MacArthur Genius Award for their unique work in theatre. ill Empowering kids to feel self-confident is what matters most to the Camp Equinox staff. And it’s what matters, it seems, to parents of campers too, who keep sending their kids back year after year. Camp Equinox offers two separate month-long sessions for kids going into grades 1 through 8. Camp runs from 8:30 to 3:30 (except Fridays, which end at noon). The learning fiesta includes acting, musical theatre, comedy improvisation, Shakespeare, dance, puppetry, play writing, hip-hop dancing, costume and set design, and much, much more.

Puccini’s Suor Angelica & Gianni Schicchi Two one-act operas sung in Italian with English translation supertitles Friday, May 15th at 7PM and Sunday, May 17th at 3PM Tickets: $25 – $75; 25% discount for first-time IOB attendees; 50% discount for all students Willson Auditorium

Originally conceived as part of Puccini’s “Il Trittico,” Suor Angelica and Gianni Schicchi deal with the most powerful of raw human emotions. In Suor Angelica, the redemptive power of love saves the soul of a treyoung nun who has just learned of the death of her illegitimate child. Gianni Schicchi is the prototype of all sitcoms, as a group of greedy family members try to t “rearrange” the terms of their rich relative’s will only to find themselves outsmarted in the end by a wolf in sheep’s clothing. In both works, Puccini’s lyrical gifts shine at their very brightest. Whether in tragedy or e comedy, Puccini’s music will strike a heart string.

Stop, Drop, and Laugh! with Christopher Titus Friday, April 10th at 8 PM Tickets: $25-35 Newsday calls him, “TV’s most original comic voice since Seinfeld.” Funnyman Christopher Titus, star of the aptly titled FOX comedy TITUS, is as one-of-a-kind as they get, with a delivery that is part rant, part confession, part therapy – and always funny. Titus is a comic on the edge, just daring to be pushed, delving into shocking life experiences, celebrating his dysfunctional family and taking no prisoners along the way. TIME Magazine calls him, “Brutal, hilarious, and audacious.” Reserved seats for this night of comedy are $25 (plus ordering fee) or $35 for the up-close and personal VIP ticket, both available online at theellentheatre.com. Beer, wine and other refreshments, which may be brought into the theatre, are served in the lobby at 7 PM, with the comedy slated for 8 PM. If you have questions or wish to purchase tickets over the phone, please call The Ellen box office at 585-5885. A Conversation with George Chakiris Oscar Winner and West Side Story Star Saturday, April 11th at 6 PM Tickets: $19 (plus ordering fee) George Chakiris won an Academy Award for playing Bernardo, Maria’s brother, in the 1961 hit film West Side Story.

The newly renovated Willson will be put through its paces with these two shows. The first opera will feature the grandeur of traditional opera sets and costumes. The second will show off the amazing new technical capabilities of the auditorium, with a modern set dramatically enhanced by lighting effects.

The evening begins at 6 PM as Chakiris discusses his life and the heyday of Hollywood musicals with dance critic and film historian Debra Levine, who you may have seen on Turner Classic Movies. There will also be an audience question and answer session. After a brief intermission, West Side Story will be featured on Ellen’s big silver screen. Winner of an astounding ten Academy Awards including Best Picture, it’s the perfect way to see this breathtaking and groundbreaking film.

Heart of the valley animal shelter Take a Walk through the Heart to Heart Park

Ta Fr 8P Ti Ve sto Ex lec co sto au ex tru He so ho ev of in

Make a point to break away from your busy day to visit a tranquil space. You’re invited to Heart to Heart Park, the community’s only place specifically designed to celebrate the bond between pets and people. Summer is the very best time to walk through the streamside park, which commemorates cherished animals while also supporting the mission of the shelter. When donors buy memorial plaques, benches, trees or art for the park, the shelter will also gain operational funds. Farsighted donors, including Bert and Sharon Hopeman and Dr. Rob Myers, envisioned this space many years ago. Now their dreams are being realized, and people are visiting, walking dogs and enjoying the water at the stream and fountain. Children taking part in our Pet Pal’s summer day camp spent time under the shade pavilion and enjoyed lunch and activities in the park.

*MONTANA’SBEST

We’re proud to say that Heart to Heart Park was featured in an article in Zone 4 magazine, a publication for Rocky Mountain gardeners. In that article, Micheline Halpin of Greenspace Landscaping tells how designer Jada Krusniak helped create the park and raise funds for its plantings and structures. Tragically, Jada and her dog Rosie were killed in a car accident last October, and Jada never got to see the park finished. But in her honor, Greenspace and Jada’s family have made the park an even more beautiful place by planting trees, and installing benches and plaques to ensure that Jada’s memory will live forever at our park.

Montana’s best source source for quality nutrition, supplements, treats and unique gear for your most loyal family members.

You are invited to come and see the park, and learn about how you can honor a special person or pet. To schedule your visit, please write to kathryn@ heartofthevalleyshelter.org or call (406) 388-9399 x221.
