We are proud to present Magnolia Vahey, this week’s spotlighted artist!

I am Magnolia Vahey//M.V.//Mags//Magno and am thrilled to present myself here, to YOU!

My multi facets include currently being a full-time Human Resources worker for the U.S. Forest Service, a part-time Background Actor, a greeting card maker and giver (“CARDnolia”, of course) and far from least, a Dancer. It is my main squeeze. Dance is how I activate my flux. I dance to stir up stagnancy and illuminate the dark nooks of my being. I dance to shed thoughts, emotions, the clutter of my mind and body. I dance to feel more clearly and better. I dance to intend change. As an art form, Dance is how I communicate ineffables. Dance is also how I decorate presence and simply play with sounds, textures and space. I am inspired by music and I love to be moved by a song.
