SUMMARY:Once Upon a Piano\, There Were Four Hands Tales of New Beginnings\, Wonder\, and Remembrance
DESCRIPTION:Step into an afternoon of musical storytelling with mother‑son piano duo Amy I‑Lin Cheng and Alexander Burrow. Their imaginative program features solo works and music for piano four‑hands — two performers sharing one keyboard — and unfolds in three expressive “sets\,” each illuminating a different facet of the piano’s voice. \nExperience the elegance and fire of classical masters Mozart\, Beethoven\, and Liszt\, pieces that honor the classical roots that continue to shape the piano’s legacy. Relish the evocative landscapes of Debussy’s Preludes and selections from Ravel’s Mother Goose Suite\, a richly imaginative retelling of beloved fairy tales through music. And enjoy the fresh perspectives of today’s young composers\, including new works composed and arranged by rising young artist Alexander Burrow\, whose voice reflects the creativity and curiosity of the next generation. \nA celebration of legacy and imagination\, this program reminds us how music evolves while honoring the roots that shaped it!

SUMMARY:Indigo & Shibori ~ A Natural Dye Workshop

Registration is required. Space is limited for this workshop\, sign up soon. Address disclosed upon registration.

SUMMARY:Author Visit: Amy Crawford
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this special release day event with Amy Crawford\, author of Undesirable: Invasive Species\, Humans\, and Where We All Belong. \nInvasive species are consistently vilified as a major threat to the ecosystems we call home. But Undesirable reveals there is much more to this story and offers surprising ideas about our relationship with the natural world. \nThrough case studies\, historical surveys\, media criticism\, and conversations with both experts and the ordinary people who serve as foot soldiers in the war on invasive species\, this book explores how confronting our deeper anxieties about nature and our roles in a changing world can help us see our “unwanted” neighbors in a new light and teach us all to be better stewards. \nThe event will include a reading\, Q & A\, and signing opportunity. \nAmy Crawford lives in Chelsea. She is a freelance writer and long-time contributor to Smithsonian Magazine. Her writing on science\, the environment\, and sustainability has also appeared in Nature Conservancy\, CityLab\, The Boston Globe\, and elsewhere. She lives on a small farm in rural Michigan with her husband and children and is a certified Michigan Naturalist.
