Yoga Mechanics Montclair

Experience a special evening of gentle yoga and transformative sound healing meant to nourish your nervous system and soothe your soul.
YM co-owner Annette will guide you through a calming, gentle yoga session, setting the stage for a 45-minute immersive sound bath led by Justin Ortiz. Our team will create a meditative symphony designed to relax your mind, body, and spirit using bowls and other resonant instruments.
This unique combination of movement and sound offers more than relaxation: it's a chance to explore the powerful healing vibrations of ancient traditions.
For Annette's birthday wish: all proceeds will go to The Loveland Foundation, supporting their mission to bring opportunity and healing to communities of color.
Stay afterward for a toast and some light bites!
What is a Sound Bath? A sound bath is an immersive experience where a skilled practitioner uses sound to encourage deep relaxation and stress relief. During the session, you’ll rest comfortably, eyes closed, as waves of sound help calm your mind and body. This ancient practice, rooted in the meditative traditions of Tibetan monks, harnesses the vibrational power of singing bowls and other instruments to awaken your parasympathetic nervous system—promoting rest, healing, and a sense of inner peace.
Whether you're seeking better sleep, reduced stress, or a deeper connection to your meditation practice, this evening offers a gentle path toward renewal and balance.

Newark Public Library - Main Branch

Thurs., November 12, 2026 6:30-8pm EST Newark Public Library —Main Branch 5 Washington St. 4th Floor Auditorium





Dinner is served at this event.&nbsp;Please RSVP.



Join us at the Newark Public Library Main Branch at the 4th floor auditorium for a special holiday Our Newark Futures with New Jersey-based musician/composer/ensemble leaders Pheeroan akLaff and Peter Lin. They will be a part of Rutgers University historian Nicole Burrowes’ New Jersey Oral History project she conducting with Nottingham University in England, bringing out voices of cross community relations across the Black and Asian communities here in New Jersey and the UK. We will also hear Pheeroan, Peter and bassist Caylen Bryant play together during the program.

It is hard to categorize akLaff and Lin with the range of their work and the breadth of their musical collaborations. akLaff is a major voice in Jazz in New Jersey with his work with his non-profit organization Seed Artists. He has established a series in New Jersey and New York as well as works globally as an artist, having collaborated extensively with musicians in Asia. Lin is the organizer of the Asian American Jazz Festival in Newark and also bandleader working cross culturally with his Catbus Collective and Asian American Jazz Collective as well as his work abroad in Taiwan. Burrowes will talk about the oral history project and hopes that there may be others who are working across communities that will like to join the project.

Photo of Peter Lin Photo credit Chris Drukker Bios: Pheeroan akLaff is contributing innovative drumming to creative music and interactive arts. His collaborative work with Anthony Braxton, Baikida Carroll, Anthony Davis, Andrew Hill, Oliver Lake, Tom Pierson Orchestra, Liu Sola, Henry Threadgill, Reggie Workman, and Yosuke Yamashita informed his musical vitality and is reflected in his recordings: Sonogram, Global Mantras, Brooklyn Waters, Drums-et Variations, Live in Japan, and the upcoming release Hana Dharma, fusing percussion with the string quintet of Aska Maret. Informed and inspired by his many residencies, research, and tours of Africa and Asia, Pheeroan values the ritual of regeneration in his conduction and live music.&nbsp;Caylen Bryant (she/her)&nbsp;began singing as a child, and at the age of seven, she picked up the cello. Later in her musical journey, she was inspired to migrate to the bass while studying at Oberlin. There, she completed the Double Degree Program and earned her Bachelor’s degrees from the College and the Conservatory. She recently graduated from The Juilliard School with a Master’s in Jazz Bass Performance.
Caylen is a&nbsp;New York based musician and teaching artist and&nbsp;tours nationally and internationally with artist Kandace Springs. Rubén Blades has described Caylen as a wonderful storyteller, remarking on how well she can deliver a story through music.

Nicole Burrowes is a historian of the African Diaspora specializing in twentieth-century Caribbean and African American history. She is an Assistant Professor of History at Rutgers University, New Brunswick, and Associate Director of the Rutgers Advanced Institute for Critical Caribbean Studies. Her book, Seeds of Solidarity: African-Indian Relations and the 1935 Labor Rebellions in British Guiana (Cambridge University Press, 2026), explores the historical possibility of a movement forged by those at the edges of empire in the midst of economic, environmental and political crises. She also serves as Oral History Lead for the New Jersey strand of a British Academy–funded project on Black-Asian relations. Beyond academia, she has over twenty-five years of experience working with communities of color for transformative justice.
Peter Lin is a Taiwanese-American trombonist, producer, and educator in the tri-state area. A graduate from both William Paterson University (undergrad) and Rutgers University (graduate), Peter has performed with jazz luminaries including Slide Hampton, Ron Carter, Winard Harper, Charli Persip, JD Allen, Robin Eubanks, Steve Davis, and Steve Turre. He has also been included in notable ensembles such as the Roy Hargrove Big Band, Jimmy Heath Big Band, and Frank Lacy’s Tromboniverse. With three albums under his name, including his most recent release titled “Identity” on Origin Records under the band AAPI Jazz Collective, he continues to perform prolifically worldwide as both a leader and sideman. In addition to his musical endeavors, he is also the founder of Yardbird Entertainment, a music production company providing audio, video, and livestream services, as well as the producer of AAPI Jazz Fest for three years. He currently teaches at Jazz House Kids and New Jersey Youth Symphony as a trombone instructor and ensemble coach.&nbsp;

Estate planning is way too important to neglect. Do not trust non-attorneys or online services to handle your estate plan – the consequences may be dire. The choice of a lawyer is an important decision and should not be based solely upon advertisements.

Rosen Theater at Wayne Community Center

Tony Award-winning musical comes to the Wayne Community Center November 13–15 as America marks its 250th anniversary
Two hundred and fifty years ago, a group of opinionated, stubborn and deeply divided delegates gathered in Philadelphia and somehow managed to create a new nation.
This November, the Theater League of Clifton brings their story to the stage with 1776, the Tony Award-winning musical about the tumultuous days leading to the Declaration of Independence. 
Directed by Maren Sugarman, the production will be presented November 13–15, 2026, at the Wayne Community Center, 1 Pike Drive in Wayne.
Set during the sweltering summer of 1776, the musical follows the determined and frequently exasperated John Adams as he tries to convince the Second Continental Congress that the thirteen colonies must declare their independence from Great Britain. Along the way, he finds allies in the irreverent Benjamin Franklin and reluctant Thomas Jefferson — and formidable opposition from delegates who have little interest in revolution.
With music and lyrics by Sherman Edwards and a book by Peter Stone,&nbsp;1776 transforms the debates surrounding American independence into a battle of personalities, politics and principles. The musical originally opened on Broadway in 1969 and won three Tony Awards, including Best Musical. More than half a century later, its portrayal of an argumentative Congress wrestling with compromise, regional divisions, slavery and the meaning of liberty remains strikingly relevant.
The production also arrives at an especially fitting moment. Throughout 2026, communities across the country are commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and reflecting on the ideals, contradictions and continuing story that began in Philadelphia two-and-a-half centuries ago.
Leading the cast is Joe Elefante as John Adams, the outspoken Massachusetts delegate determined to persuade the Continental Congress to declare independence from Great Britain. Joining him are Anthony Rotondi as Benjamin Franklin and Don Flynn as Thomas Jefferson.
The featured cast also includes Frank Ortega as Richard Henry Lee, Kevin Hayes as John Dickinson, Ryan Green as Edward Rutledge, Stephen Burke as Roger Sherman, Bill Kaufman as Robert Livingston, and Frank Skokan as John Hancock. Julia Duncan portrays Abigail Adams and Brittany Reese plays Martha Jefferson.
Sugarman returns to the Theater League of Clifton after directing several previous productions, including Oliver!, Waiting for Christmas, Man of La Mancha, Murder on the Menu and The Altos.
Tickets are $30, or $25 for seniors and students. Group rates are available for groups of 10 or larger. Tickets can be purchased online at <a href="https://www.theaterleagueofclifton.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">tlctheater.org</a> or reserved by calling (973) 928-7668.
The Theater League of Clifton has also announced a special promotion with Outback Steakhouse in Wayne, offering audiences of its upcoming production of 1776 a 30% discount on food and drinks, including alcoholic beverages. To take advantage of the promotion, patrons need only present their purchased 1776 ticket at the restaurant's Wayne location at 191 Berdan Avenue, between Friday, November 13, and Sunday, November 15.
Founded in 2005, the Theater League of Clifton is a nonprofit community organization dedicated to fostering an appreciation of the arts through theatrical performances, providing quality entertainment for audiences of all ages and creating opportunities for members of the community to participate in live theater. Instagram:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/theaterleagueofclifton/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@theaterleagueofclifton</a>
1776 is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI.
