    Verde Valley AZ (December 31, 2012) – Verde Valley Land Preservation (VVLP) is creating a river trip for artists on the Verde River. They will float the Verde and capture its essence to communicate this experience through their art.

    Artists of all ages are eligible to participate. Eligible artists will come from the Verde Watershed and will submit a sample of their work by January 31, 2013. Twenty-five artists will be selected to participate in the Verde River trip that will take place March 29-31, 2013. Artists work will be displayed in a traveling exhibition which will move between communities in the watershed beginning in the Summer of 2013.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
