Ruby City invites the community to a special screening of TheyDream, a deeply personal documentary by filmmaker William D. Caballero exploring grief, memory, and the transformative power of art. Drawing from two decades of mixed-media filmmaking, Caballero interweaves animation, archival footage, and intimate family conversations to trace his Puerto Rican family’s experience navigating loss, identity, and healing.
After the screening, Caballero will discuss the making of the film and the role of creative practice in navigating memory and loss.
Centered on the death of his grandmother Isolina, the film follows Caballero and his mother as they use filmmaking and animation to revisit family memories and creatively reconnect with loved ones who have passed. Through handmade imagery, vulnerable conversations, and collaborative acts of creation, TheyDream reflects on how art can help process grief, preserve stories, and rebuild connection across generations.
Rooted in themes of dreaming, remembrance, and creative transformation, the film resonates with Ruby City’s commitment to art as a vital force for reflection, connection, and shared human experience.

Dreamwork Workshop is a recurring series that explores dreams as a catalyst for reflection, imagination, and personal growth. Guided by a certified dream interpreter, each session introduces foundational dreamwork practices through conversation, guided exercises, readings, and practical techniques that participants can continue using long after the workshop ends.
Designed for both beginners and returning participants, the series offers approachable ways to improve dream recall, recognize recurring images and symbols, and build a personal practice rooted in curiosity rather than fixed interpretation. While every workshop explores a different aspect of dreamwork, each provides a welcoming introduction to using dreams as a source of creativity, self-discovery, and deeper awareness.
No prior experience is required.
Free to attend, space is limited. Reserve your spot!

The AM Project presents MASS, an immersive, two-hour performance that transforms Chris Park into a shared space of sound, movement, and reflection. Blending music, dance, spoken word, and multimedia elements, MASS invites audiences into a multi-sensory experience inspired by spiritual and cultural traditions.
This iteration of MASS is centered on the theme of “A Mother’s Love,” drawing from both the enduring relationship between Ruby City founder Linda Pace and her son, Chris, and the broader idea of nature as a nurturing, connective force. As a space created in his memory, Chris Park becomes the foundation for a performance that considers care, remembrance, and the ways love shapes our shared environments.
Audiences are invited to move through the park as the experience unfolds, encountering moments of sound, light, and movement that encourage pause, contemplation, and connection. The evening culminates in a central gathering that brings together local artists and performers in a dynamic expression of community and collective presence.
Presented in advance of the anniversary of Chris Park, MASS offers a space to reflect on the park’s origins and its continued role as a site for connection, healing, and shared experience
