The 2026 Hudson Valley Trash Draft

The 2026 Hudson Valley Trash Draft is a MTG booster draft featuring Hudson Valley Trash Draft Booster. A Hudson Valley Trash Draft Booster is similar to a Mystery booster or arena’s mix-up draft. I have gone through the card pool and collated the packs for the best experience possible. Since we have a limit of 16 players, you must RSVP by emailing [email protected] to join. If we are full I’ll put you on a wait list. Players draft in pods of 8, build 40 card decks and compete for a first place. The event starts promptly at 6:00pm.

Having your Tech Meet Your Ethics

For nonprofits that work with vulnerable populations and/or are committed to politics of inclusion and resistance, thinking through the tech we use and how we use is more extremely important, and totally overwhelming.
The conversation will take a solidaristic, consent culture approach — focusing on the actions that will actually help keep us all safe — as we gain a deeper understanding of how information is shared and how we intentionally and unintentionally share our information and that of others.

(O+) The Astrology of Your Parts: A Journey into Self-Love with Renee Rotkopf

Join us for an hour-long exploration of astrology, not as prediction, but as a map of your inner world. On this New Moon in Libra, we’ll gather to learn how balance and appreciate ourself through our planetary parts: the Inner Child (Moon), the Hero (Sun), the Challenger (Mars), and more. You’ll discover how these parts relate to each other, where they might be in conflict, and how to meet them with mindfulness, wonder, and self-love. A way to listen to yourself more deeply, to understand why you do what you do, and to bring all your parts into greater harmony. And will include a short guided meditation. No astrology experience needed, just curiosity and a willingness to meet yourself in a new way.

(O+) Rest as Resilience: Through Breath, Aromatherapy & Restorative Yoga with Camellia Lee

The journey to rest is not passive — it is an intentional practice, a way of relaxing with purpose. By connecting into the five senses, we cultivate deeper states of calm, peace, and joy. Through the lineage of yoga, you’ll learn pranayama breath techniques while aromatic scent notes of floral, pine, and wood bathe the nervous system — guiding it into states it rarely gets to visit, and stay. Woven through with deeply supportive restorative yoga poses, this immersive session leaves you reset from the inside out. 75 minutes | All levels | No yoga experience required. Come as you are, dressed for ease. Bring an eye pillow or mask to deepen into the experience.
