November 20, 2024: Bread and Roses

The Fabulous 413

Today is about copious amounts of art we can engage.

We’ll head to the Hilltowns to an art enclave that’s been teaching craft for 3 decades. We’re smack dab in the middle of Snow Farm’s seconds sale and we’ll get a tour of their amazing grounds and anachronistically impeccable wares with Neal Bastek, Laura Stadtlander, and Keely Quirk and hear how you and maybe that art loving teen in your life can learn some of what they do also.

In Easthampton, this years Pay It Forward grant cohort closes with Swazy, an up and coming producer, hip hop artist, and founding member of the collective Keep Us Alive, who’ll bring her curated show The Maverick Sessions to City Space this Saturday. We’ll hear from the artist about her journey to hip hop and the curation of the show, and from the grant program’s director Zoe Fieldman about their plans for next year’s program.

Plus Word Nerd Emily Brewster, senior editor at Merriam-Webster is breaking open some bread with us. Bread words that is, as the March for the Food Bank is rapidly approaching and reminding us all to share ours.
