SUMMARY:Boundless: The Art of the Book
DESCRIPTION:Exhibit Dates: July 17-August 24\nOpening Reception: Sunday\, July 20\, 5pm-7pm \nThis dynamic exhibition explores the rich and ever-evolving world of the book as an art form. Featuring artist books\, altered books\, and book illustration\, “Boundless” showcases imaginative approaches to storytelling\, visual poetry\, personal narratives\, and inventive book structures. Visitors will encounter works that range from the traditional to the avant-garde—books that hang\, twist\, stand\, open like advent calendars\, or defy conventional forms altogether. \nThe exhibition presents a wide array of techniques\, including letterpress\, etching\, monoprint\, painting\, photography\, and mixed media. Through these varied practices\, artists explore themes of memory\, imagination\, identity\, and the contemporary moment. \n“Boundless” features contributions from a distinguished group of 29 artists\, including local creatives\, university faculty\, and artists affiliated with book arts communities throughout New England and beyond—Boston\, Philadelphia\, New York\, New Hampshire\, and Maine. \nExhibiting Artists:\nRen Barnes\, Stevens Brosnihan\, Rachel Church\, Pamela Courtleigh\, Haig Demarjian\, Mary Dewey\, Madge Evers\, Lynda Fatalo\, Cristina Hajosy\, Hannah Jacoby-Brooks\, Linda Kauss\, Giles Laroche\, Kelle Louaillier\, Leslie Lyman\, Fred Lynch\, Claire B. Marcus\, Cynthia Marsh\, R. Ellis Orrall\, Sarah Parella\, Rhoda Rosenberg\, Lynne Sausele\, Mary Beth Smith\, Lorna Stevens\, Juni Van Dyke\, Anna Vojtech\, Larry Volk\, Karen Watson\, Antoinette Winters\, Kyung Eun You \nAn Opening Reception will be held on Sunday\, July 20\, from 5:00pm to 7:00pm.

SUMMARY:First Shot of the American Revolution?
DESCRIPTION:Did you know there was a shot fired in Danvers\, MA during August of 1774? \nGeneral Gage’s “87 Days at Danvers” June 2 – August 27\, 1774 \nA presentation and discussion of what should be viewed as the First Campaign of the American Revolutionary War. And\, contrary to popular thought\, within that ‘juggernaut’ perhaps the ‘First’ shot fired in that War possibly occurring in Danvers Massachusetts on August 24\, 1774. \nUnbelievably what occurred during those crucial 87 days has been vastly ignored and dismissed by virtually every history professional. What few who mentioned that period touched upon it lightly – noting nothing worthy of mention. Some describing Governor-General Gage’s time on the North Shore as a geopolitical campaign\, inferring that it was more of a summer vacation – it was not. \nThis talk is to review the mosaic of known facts significantly pertinent to the American Revolutionary War which occurred during those 87 days and put into perspective the overt acts of revolt which both preceded and followed that time.
