SUMMARY:VERSE/VISUAL 2025
DESCRIPTION:FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE\n“VERSE/VISUAL”: A Free and Open to All Weekend of Art Inspired by Art returns for its seventh season in Ipswich and Haverhill.\nwww.versevisual.com\nCynthia August\, Founder and Director 978-998-2228 cynthia@cynthiaaugust.com\nKathryn Zelkowitz\, Producer and Exhibition Coordinator 978-810-6811 kazelkowitz@gmail.com\nIpswich\, Massachusetts\nStep into a vibrant and lively conversation about inspiration at VERSE/VISUAL\, a free community art festival happening August 15-17 at EBSCO Hall\, 5 Peatfield Street\, Ipswich MA and September 26-28 at the Haverhill Art Walk.\nSeventy-four visionary artists have been paired to create brand-new works inspired by each other’s previous pieces—resulting in a dazzling display of artistic dialogue across mediums.\nBeyond the gallery walls\, the weekend will pulse with live music\, hands-on community art projects\, and opportunities for connection and creativity for all ages.\nDon’t miss your chance to witness how art sparks art—and find your own inspiration.\nVERSE/VISUAL is a collaborative art experience where inspiration becomes the medium.\nAt its core\, VERSE/VISUAL is a creative exchange: each participating artist submits a completed work of any medium – a painting\, a poem\, a short film\, a sculpture\, a song\, a performance piece\, maybe even a table! – which is presented in the exhibition for its own artistic merit. But that’s just the beginning. Each of these works is then given anonymously to another participating artist\, who creates an entirely new piece in response.\nThe result is a dynamic pairing of “inspiration” and “exploration” works of two creations in conversation. Sometimes the link between the works is direct and visible\, echoing a color palette\, a phrase\, or a material. Other times\, it’s conceptual\, abstract\, even surprising\, like a meditation on theme\, emotion\, or form that reveals the breadth of interpretation and imagination.\nTogether\, these artistic pairings create an ecosystem of influence\, connection\, and transformation. The final exhibition is more than a showcase of individual talent. It is a living map of creative lineage. Viewers are invited into a rich\, layered experience: to trace the threads of inspiration\, to reflect on how ideas evolve\, and to witness the many ways artists see\, feel\, and respond to the world and to each other.\nVERSE/VISUAL is not just a show. It’s a journey. A dialogue. An invitation into the heart of creative process.\nAdmission is free. All are welcome.\nVERSE/VISUAL IPSWICH\nAugust 15-17\, 2025\nEBSCO Hall\, 5 Peatfield Street\, Ipswich\, MA\nFriday\, August 15th Opening Reception 6:30pm – 9pm\nSaturday\, August 16th 10am – 6pm\nMusic by Chuck Doran and Friends 2pm – 4:30pm\nSunday\, August 17th 10am – 4pm\nMusic by Mile Lane 11am – 1pm\nMini VERSE/VISUAL experience for all ages – try it yourself!\nVERSE/VISUAL 2025 is made possible in part through a grant from Mass Cultural and is sponsored by the Institution for Savings.

SUMMARY:2025 Bread & Roses Festival
DESCRIPTION:Our 41st annual Bread & Roses Heritage Festival will take place\, as always\, on Labor Day at the Campagnone Common in Lawrence\, MA – so mark your calendar for September 1\, rain or shine! This year’s theme is “Rooted in Community: From Seed to Strength.” At a time when so many of us and our loved ones are feeling fear\, uncertainty and danger\, we wanted to emphasize the importance of community. We support one another\, we keep each other grounded\, we provide safety and solidarity with one another\, especially in times of crisis. The spirit of the Bread and Roses strike is to stand collectively and fight back against attacks on workers\, immigrants\, and people of all races\, genders and abilities – and that is what we do every year at the Festival. By joining together for celebration\, music\, dance\, art\, and history\, we remind one another of what’s most important and most valuable about our communities. Visit our website (https://www.breadandrosesheritage.org/) for more information about this year’s performers\, our logo designer\, and our family events. We’ve got some really exciting things planned for this year – you won’t want to miss it!
