Upcoming events
01OctThe Love Dogs + More Info Take one red-hot horn section—we're talkin' alto, tenor, baritone saxes, and trombone—down and dirty. Add liberal amounts of barrelhouse boogie-woogie piano and stinging Fender guitar. Pour over a funky and swinging rhythm section that Blues Review magazine called "the best in the business", and top it all off with a crazy and charismatic front man with one of the biggest blues voices around. Season with a few years on the road tearing up juke joints, festivals and concert halls across the U.S. and Canada and on both sides of the Atlantic. Sound tasty? It's a recipe for music and mayhem, for intensity and irreverence; it's THE LOVE DOGS. Based out of Boston, this hard swinging septet just celebrated its 20th year wowing audiences and critics alike with their combination of great musicianship and pure fun. The Dogs combine elements of jump blues, New Orleans R&B and early rock 'n' roll into their own powerhouse sound. Beer and wine will be available for purchase. The Love Dogs will be performing indoor in the Delbridge Family Performance Center— masks and proof of vaccination will be required. Tickets: $15 General Admissions, $14.25 for members October 01 (07:00 pm-10:00 pm)

02OctGetting Started with Pastel Painting (ONLINE CLASS) + More Info Getting Started with Pastel Painting (ONLINE CLASS) w/ Janet Schwartz Free and open to the public up to 10 participants Saturday, October 2, 10 am - 12 noon via Zoom. In this two-hour virtual workshop designed for beginners and aspiring artists, we will use pastels to explore the importance of value and how to simplify what you see and not get stuck on details. Students will be asked to paint from a photograph that initially looks like an abstraction. As additional photos are used of the same subject that are more and more in focus, the painting evolves into something recognizable. Focusing on value and composition, we will paint the image together as the instructor guides students to complete the work. The resulting artwork will delight and inspire participants. This virtual workshop is free and open to the first ten registered. Art kits containing workshop materials will be available for pickup at the HCA at no cost. Students will need an iPad or computer to access the zoom application. A Zoom link will be emailed to participants a day before the workshop. This program is sponsored by the Hopkinton Cultural Council (HCC) and receives grant funding from Massachusetts Cultural Council.
