Robbins, who was forced to move out of Somerville recently because of high rents, talked of the gentrification of our burg, her musical background, and the offerings of her artistic, musical and performance center. Although she no longer lives in Somerville she still maintains this vibrant center for artistic expression.

From the Website:

Robbins, is the founder of the Third Life Studio, a center for creativity and spirit as expressed through the many vibrant artistic and spiritual practices of the world.

Located in the heart of Somerville’s culturally dynamic Union Square,Third Life Studio is a creative home to many who perform, teach, guide, quest, and heal.
