SUMMARY:Guided Imagery & Creative Expression
DESCRIPTION:This offering begins with a gentle warm-up\, followed by a guided imagery journey that invites participants to connect with their inner landscape through embodied awareness\, visualization\, imagination\, and intuition. Following the journey\, participants are invited into creative expression – writing\, drawing\, painting\, etc. – to integrate and give form to what emerged. Time & space will be offered for optional sharing of your experience and/or creation. Art supplies will be provided. No artistic experience is needed. Participants leave feeling grounded\, resourced\, & connected\, along with a tangible artistic creation and a self-care tool they can carry with them wherever they go.\n——————————————————————–\nSarah Sue Burich serves as a naturopath\, wellness guide & coach\, healing facilitator\, educator\, and earth steward. With 15+ years of experience\, she supports people who long to be more informed and empowered in their healing journey. She often serves those who feel overwhelmed\, unseen\, burned out\, chronically unwell\, alone\, disconnected\, “stuck\,” moving through significant life transitions\, and longing for more answers about their health & well-being than conventional medicine can offer. Her approach bridges modern science with ancestral & earth wisdom\, intuition\, creativity\, & magic. She guides others on the most important journey of all ~ back home to themselves.\nSarah Sue integrates many “tools” into her practice\, including nutrition\, herbal medicine\, energy medicine (chakras\, qigong\, homeopathy)\, somatic\, embodiment & dance therapy\, mind-body exploration\, guided imagery\, family constellation therapy\, soul & spirit medicines\, empowerment & more to address healing across physical\, emotional\, spiritual\, and ancestral layers. Her intent is to create a safe & sacred space\, to allow others to tell their stories\, to be seen\, witnessed\, validated\, and honored. She meets each person with humility\, warmth\, and deep respect for their own lived experience\, wisdom\, gifts\, and inner knowing. She serves as an ally on the journey back home to wholeness through individual sessions\, group experiences\, and workshops that honor the whole person – body\, mind\, & spirit.\n——————————————————————–\nScheduled dates:\n– March 21st\, 10-11:30am\n– April 11th\, 10-11:30am\n– May 16th\, 10-11:30am\n——————————————————————–\nTickets: $15 per person.

SUMMARY:The Dead & Down and My Second Rodeo
DESCRIPTION:The Dead & Down | April 10\, 7PM | The Matthews Opera House. Alt-country meets prog-rock in a sound that refuses to fit in one bin.\nThe Dead & Down are an indie roots-rock band that refuses to stay in one lane. Fronted by Taylor Burlage’s introspective songwriting and dusty vocals\, they blend alt-country\, atmospheric indie rock\, psychedelia\, and unexpected prog-rock detours into something that feels entirely their own. Their Montana roots run deep\, and so does their ambition—they’ve opened for Fruition\, Futurebirds\, and Blind Pilot\, and their 2024 release No Broken Bones proves they’re a band willing to take real chances. As one critic put it: “Alt-country\, but on the moon—and still so down to earth.”\nYou’re in for a night of music that stays interesting. April 10\, 2026 at The Matthews Opera House & Arts Center. Doors TBD\, show time 7:00 PM. Tickets are $20. My Second Rodeo opens the show. Come early\, stay late\, and bring friends who appreciate the kind of songwriting that makes you think and move at the same time.\nThis is the kind of music and artistry we’re proud to bring to downtown Spearfish. When bands like The Dead & Down choose to play here\, it’s a reminder that the Black Hills are on the creative map.\nGrab your tickets now. At $20 and with a night this good\, seats won’t wait around.
