Art Workshop: Fun Fused Glass Pendants and Magnets
Design and assemble a dichroic fused glass pendant or magnet with an array of colorful pre-cut pieces. The workshop is led by Massachusetts artist Deenie Pack Giuliano, MFA, who enjoys teaching all ages and offers lively demonstrations. She also creates stained and fused glass for commissions and galleries. Registration is required and space is limited.
Milne Public LibraryA Hundred Words for Snow
A Hundred Words for Snow, written by Tatty Hennessy and directed by Michelle Ong Hendrick, is staged on the CenterStage at the ’62 Center for Theatre and Dance as part of Summer at the ’62 Center. When fifteen-year-old Rory loses her father, she uncovers the journey to the North Pole he intended for them and decides to carry it through. Taking his ashes, a passport, and her mother’s credit card, she sets off to honor his plan. The play follows a far-reaching Arctic quest that doubles as a coming-of-age story, exploring grief, love, and the drive to discover in a world that is steadily thawing.
