ZUMI’S strive for the goal of community-building,
focusing not only on the product, but on the place itself. It's
not just about coffee or tea, it's about the community.
This February’s month-long celebration
of the five years since Zumi’s opened in Ipswich will include
the following events:
- To kick off the festivities,
and her inspiring work. Purinton shares the Bhuju’s love
of nature, scenery, and landscapes, making her the perfect addition
to such a landmark occasion. Her abstract, mixed-media work, also
featured at www.medusastudio.com,
celebrates the beauty and transience of the natural world. Working
in mixed media with water soluble oil and acrylic interference
paint on prepared grounds of Venetian plaster, Purinton explores
nuance of atmosphere in the depiction of trees and foliage.
- – Presentation by coffeelands landmine victims.
The Coffeelands Landmine Victims' Trust is a fund dedicated to
providing direct support to landmine victims who live and work
in coffee communities throughout the world. The Trust connects
the international coffee industry and coffee consumers to landmine
victims in coffee producing regions. www.coffeelandstrust.org

- –Presentation by participants in Grounds for
Change! Coffee International Seminar: Gordon in Guatemala, January,
2008. Students and professors will share their experience of the
process of producing coffee for export consumption, as well as
the impact that process has upon the producing communities in
several locales in Guatemala. They will lead us in taking a closer
look at the impact of global trade in coffee on these regions
and attempt to reclaim that space between the global consumer
and local producer.

Brian Doser. "Nothing
but straight ahead music to get your child up and dancing. These
classic songs were inspired by time honored tunes sung to me by
my grandmother years ago. Be careful, you may find yourself singing
along and not minding it!" (From the Brian Doser web site).
