SUMMARY:Whorl: Vertical Gallery Activation by Debra Fleury
DESCRIPTION:Whorl: Vertical Gallery Activation by Debra Fleury\nSeptember 23\, 2026 – February 26\, 2027 \nOpening Reception: Tuesday\, October 6\, 6 – 8 PM (RSVP appreciated)\nDrop-in Drawing Activity: during Free Family Day\, Saturday\, October 10\, 2 – 4 PM (registration appreciated) \nOur inaugural Vertical Gallery Activation features a multi-media installation from Massachusetts artist Debra Fleury. Influenced by the human experience\, Fleury’s work seeks to encourage exploration and evoke a sense of joy and wonder. \nTranslucent fabric has been painted in a watercolor effect and sewn together\, creating channels and undulating patterns that are then filled with wire. Through this process\, “a hidden internal world is made visible\, giving shape to what is deeply felt but not easily named.” The work’s suggestion of structure and mercurial nature constantly transforms the piece\, allowing for a range of viewing experiences. Fleury’s installation evokes a sense of curiosity in the viewer as they explore and experience the energy and evolution of her work in real time. \nThe Umbrella Arts Galleries are free and open to all.

SUMMARY:Menjunje/Amalgamation: An Exploration of Language and Identity by Shelly “Lola” Freund
DESCRIPTION:Menjunje/Amalgamation: An Exploration of Language and Identity by Shelly “Lola” Freund \nSeptember 23 – November 16\, 2026 in the Wedge Gallery \n  \nOpening Reception: Tuesday\, October 6\, 6 – 8 PM (RSVP appreciated) \nDrop-in Fingerpainting Activity: during Free Family Day\, Saturday\, October 10\, 2 – 4 PM (registration appreciated) \nArtist Talk: Friday\, October 23\, 5 – 6 PM – Artist Talk (RSVP appreciated) \n  \nArtist Shelly “Lola” Freund utilizes brightly colored renditions of her own fingerprints and objects reminiscent of family keepsakes to reflect on her multicultural identity. By using her own body as the subject of her work\, Freund asks us to consider how identity is categorized and interpreted in our modern world.   \n  \nFreund’s sweeping canvases feature vibrant pinks and blues that shimmer with the additions of rhinestones\, glitter\, and copper. As light bounces from one canvas to the next\, the viewer is taken on a journey through the artist’s own diasporic origins. Whorls of string create pathways\, as she weaves between English\, Spanish\, and Hebrew\, reflected amongst the titles. \n  \nFreund’s painted geographies ask us to engage with questions of multiculturalism\, social tensions\, and attempt to identify the line between assimilation and acculturation. \n  \nThe Umbrella Arts Galleries are free and open to all.

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!

SUMMARY:Under the Branches at Artisans Way
DESCRIPTION:Artisans Way in Concord center welcomes artists Victoria and Lawrence Elbroch on Sunday\, October 18 from 12-5pm.  Their show\, “Under the Branches\,” combines Victoria’s printmaking and drawing\, and Lawrence’s photography. They attribute their collaborative work to their loving relationship and a shared inspiration. Reveling in their different ways of seeing ancient trees\, Victoria works in a sketchbook plein air and Lawrence takes photographs from the same angle. The two forms of a single image are then expertly blended to arrive at one unique\, composite view of their individual interpretations. These are the pieces that are especially featured in the “Under the Branches” collection debuting at Artisans Way. \nBorn in England\, Victoria emigrated to America in 1973.  She studied printmaking at the University of Oklahoma\, spending three years working with master printmaker\, Loraine Moore. She specializes in mixed media drawing with ink and collage and two printmaking mediums\, monotype\, and photopolymer etching. She has won numerous awards for her prints and drawings and was awarded the 2019 Piscataqua Artist’s Advancement Grant.  Since receiving the grant\, she has spent time in the UK drawing meticulously researched ancient trees. She is a member of Zea Mays Printmaking Studio\, The Boston Printmakers\, and The League of New Hampshire Craftsmen. \nLawrence Elbroch\, born in New York City\, is self-taught photographer with strong technical skills. His interest in texture\, shadow and light has carried over into the printmaking medium. Lawrence’s work has been published in Artscope Magazine (March/April 2023) and Photographer’s Forum Magazine annual “Best of Photography” edition multiple times. He has received awards for his work including a commendation from the Sony World Photography Awards. \nIn addition to the UK\, Lawrence and Victoria have traveled extensively to places including India\, Tibet\, and Nepal. These travels have led to more collaborative works where her drawings are meshed seamlessly into his photographs. \nTo the Elbrochs\, trees hold profound significance. The strange\, gnarly bark and peculiar anatomy of ancient trees fire their imaginations and Victoria and Lawrence draw parallels between the trees and all they hold dear—wisdom\, family\, connections\, shelter\, and resilience. They hope that their work\, beyond being beautiful\, serves as a reminder of the crucial role trees play in the increasingly warming planet and that people will be intrigued enough to see trees and the natural world as their fellow inhabitants. \nThey will be in the gallery to talk about their work and answer questions. All their work will be 10% off October 18 only.  Light refreshments will be provided.  For additional information or details\, please call (978) 369-4400 or go to www.artisansway.net/events.

SUMMARY:Spirits of the Old Manse: A Candlelit Encounter with the Past
DESCRIPTION:Step inside the Old Manse after dark for a rare\, intimate experience through the rooms where history was lived – and still lingers. \nThis is not a haunted house. This is something older\, quieter\, and more unsettling. Guided by candlelight\, you’ll move room by room through the 18th-century home once occupied by Revolutionaries\, philosophers\, and writers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Nathaniel and Sophia Hawthorne. Along the way\, you’ll hear true stories pulled from letters\, journals\, and the etched words left behind – literally – on the windows and walls. \nYou’ll sit where Emerson and Hawthorne wrote. See the view where the family watched the battle of the North Bridge. Stand in the attic where ministers practiced sermons and scratched their names into the beams. \nThis is a fully guided\, story-driven experience designed to bring out the emotional resonance and layered past of the house – not just what happened here\, but how it felt.  \nSpace is limited. Flashlights provided. This experience is best suited for guests 10 and up.\nPlease arrive at your designated time slot. Late entry may not be accommodated. \nThis tour involves going up several flights of steep stairs and is not wheelchair accessible. This tour may at times be conducted in low light situations; flashlights are provided. There are no public restrooms on site. Restrooms are located nearby in Concord’s Visitor’s Center. Parking is available in front of the museum in The Old Manse parking lot. \nCancellation Policy: In the event The Trustees cancels a program due to severe weather\, low enrollment\, or other circumstances\, we will notify registrants by email and issue a full refund or transfer to another scheduled program within two weeks of the cancellation. To cancel a reservation\, please contact The Old Manse 7 days prior to the start of the program to receive a full refund. Refunds and transfers will not be granted for cancellations placed fewer than 7 days before the start of the program.   \nQuestions? Want to become a Trustees Member and enjoy free and/or discounted programs? Contact ibohling@thetrustees.org.

SUMMARY:Spirits of the Old Manse: A Candlelit Encounter with the Past
DESCRIPTION:Step inside the Old Manse after dark for a rare\, intimate experience through the rooms where history was lived – and still lingers. \nThis is not a haunted house. This is something older\, quieter\, and more unsettling. Guided by candlelight\, you’ll move room by room through the 18th-century home once occupied by Revolutionaries\, philosophers\, and writers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Nathaniel and Sophia Hawthorne. Along the way\, you’ll hear true stories pulled from letters\, journals\, and the etched words left behind – literally – on the windows and walls. \nYou’ll sit where Emerson and Hawthorne wrote. See the view where the family watched the battle of the North Bridge. Stand in the attic where ministers practiced sermons and scratched their names into the beams. \nThis is a fully guided\, story-driven experience designed to bring out the emotional resonance and layered past of the house – not just what happened here\, but how it felt.  \nSpace is limited. Flashlights provided. This experience is best suited for guests 10 and up.\nPlease arrive at your designated time slot. Late entry may not be accommodated. \nThis tour involves going up several flights of steep stairs and is not wheelchair accessible. This tour may at times be conducted in low light situations; flashlights are provided. There are no public restrooms on site. Restrooms are located nearby in Concord’s Visitor’s Center. Parking is available in front of the museum in The Old Manse parking lot. \nCancellation Policy: In the event The Trustees cancels a program due to severe weather\, low enrollment\, or other circumstances\, we will notify registrants by email and issue a full refund or transfer to another scheduled program within two weeks of the cancellation. To cancel a reservation\, please contact The Old Manse 7 days prior to the start of the program to receive a full refund. Refunds and transfers will not be granted for cancellations placed fewer than 7 days before the start of the program.   \nQuestions? Want to become a Trustees Member and enjoy free and/or discounted programs? Contact ibohling@thetrustees.org.

SUMMARY:BAT BOY: THE MUSICAL
DESCRIPTION:Umbrella Arts presents… BAT BOY: THE MUSICAL | September 25 – November 8\, 2026 in Concord\, MA \nTHE STORY: Half-bat\, half-boy\, ripped from the tabloid headlines\, and thrust into the spotlight! In this camp horror comedy\, a misunderstood monster seeks a place to belong. Taken in by a veterinarian\, endeared to his adopted sister Shelly\, and reviled by the locals\, mild-mannered “Edgar” searches fiercely for a place he can truly be himself. Set to an eclectic pop-rock score by Laurence O’Keefe (Legally Blonde\, Heathers the Musical)\, Edgar’s wild journey is a hilarious satire and an offbeat fable for the outsider in all of us. \nBAT BOY: THE MUSICAL is recommended for mature audiences\, teens and up.
