SUMMARY:The Westerners: Mythmaking and Belonging on the American Frontier
DESCRIPTION:Join the Concord Museum for an evening with Megan Kate Nelson as she explores the captivating lives of women and men moving through the American West—Indigenous peoples\, Black Americans\, Mexican Americans\, and Canadian and Asian immigrants—in the nineteenth century. Her new book\, The Westerners\, tracks the attempts of many Americans to remove these individuals from history\, through a frontier myth that lionized individualism and conquest and celebrated white settlers traveling west in search of prosperity.

SUMMARY:Native American Jewelry Show & Sale
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with their 15th anniversary\, Artisans Way in Concord Center will be hosting Diane Whitman of Sandia East over the weekend of Sept 26-27 for a show and sale of Native American Jewelry and Craft. Through her more than 35 years in the Native American jewelry business\, Whitman has established relationships with artisans from various tribes and pueblos in New Mexico. She travels to the Southwest several times a year to hand-select hundreds of pieces of jewelry\, accessories\, and pottery and has been the exclusive source of Native American craft for Artisans Way since their opening in Concord in 2011. \nOn Saturday\, September 26 and Sunday\, September 27\, Whitman will be displaying solid sterling silver jewelry pieces (bracelets\, earrings\, pendants\, rings\, etc.) made in the tradition of the Navajo Nation as well as beaded necklaces designed by the natives of the Santo Domingo Pueblo. In addition\, there will be silver pieces incorporating set stones and inlays created by Zuni tribe members and a broad collection of their hand-carved animal fetishes (small stone figures\, said to house a spirit which can give assistance to the owner that have been used by southwestern Native Americans since prehistoric times.) Examples of both traditional and contemporary styles are sure to appeal to all appreciators of Native American crafted jewelry. \nAlongside jewelry and fetishes\, Whitman will also be featuring a collection of individually selected ceramic pieces created by both Navajo and Acoma Pueblo tribe members.  The ceramic artists employ a variety of techniques\, including etching and coloring on traditional “horsehair” and black-and-white pottery. \nArtisans Way is both honored and excited to be representing and promoting the exceptional work of the Native American people. A collection this extensive\, of unmatched quality and variety\, is rarely found outside of Native American territory. The public is invited to this free event from 10am – 6pm on Saturday and 12pm – 5pm on Sunday. During the show\, all Native American jewelry and craft purchases will be discounted 10%.  For additional information or details\, please call (978) 369-4400 or go to www.artisansway.net/events.

SUMMARY:Concord Conservatory or Music Presents: Music & Beer
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, October 2\, 2026\, 7:30 pm at 51 Walden \nWhat do a masterfully crafted brew and a brilliant piece of music have in common? More than you might think. \nPresented by Keith Kirchoff\, founder of Original Gravity and curator of the evening’s musical program\, and Allen Quinn\, brewer and co-owner of Armory’s Tomb\, this interactive event explores the fascinating connections between sound and taste. Together\, they will guide audiences through a series of carefully selected beer and music pairings\, sharing insights into the brewing process\, the artistry behind the music\, and how each enhances the other. \nFeaturing award-winning musicians Angel Valchinov\, Joseph Cracolici\, and Ai-Ying Chiu\, this immersive evening invites you to discover how rhythm\, texture\, tempo\, and tone can transform the way we experience flavor\, creating a multi-sensory journey unlike any other. \nAs you sample both throughout the night\, you’ll discover surprising connections between the art of brewing and the art of music-making. Like composers balancing melody\, harmony\, and rhythm\, brewers blend ingredients to create distinctive flavors\, textures\, and character. You may find that a bright\, lively beer complements the energy of a sparkling musical work\, while a darker\, richer brew enhances the depth and warmth of a more reflective piece. \nWhether you’re a craft beer enthusiast\, a music lover\, or simply curious about the connections between taste and sound\, this event offers a fresh and engaging way to experience chamber music. \n*Non-alcoholic beverages will also be available. \nCome sip\, listen\, compare\, discuss\, and discover the unexpected harmony between beer and music. \nPurchase tickets online ($50) *21+ Valid photo ID matching the ticket holder’s name will be required at the door for entry/tasting. \nNote: For groups of 8 or more wishing to sit together\, please contact Elaine at elawrence@concordconservatory.org. \nSpecial thanks to our featured brewery\, Armory’s Tomb!
