SUMMARY:Paul Reiser
DESCRIPTION:Comedian\, actor\, television writer\, author and musician Paul Reiser is one of Hollywood’s most prolific creatives. \n2024 is set to be a busy year for Reiser. On the heels of his new comedy “The Problem with People\,” which he wrote\, produced\, and starred in alongside Colm Meaney and Jane Levy\, Reiser has upcoming projects across a multitude of media formats. \nIn March\, Carter Burke\, Reiser’s iconic character from “Aliens” will be re-emerging in a “what-if” concept comic book from Marvel comics. \nReiser co-wrote “What a Fool Believes\,” the candid\, freewheeling memoir of his friend and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Michael McDonald which will be published May 21 from HarperCollins/DeyStreet. \nLater\, in July\, Reiser will appear in Netflix’s “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F\, reprising his role from BH Cop 1 and 2 and will also appear in the independent comedy “The Gutter\,” directed by Isaiah and Yassir Lester\, premiering at SXSW. \nRecently Reiser could be seen in Hulu’s critically-acclaimed comedy series “Reboot” from Modern Family creator Steve Levitan. Awards Daily wrote “Reiser truly excels\, giving one of his very best performances…here\, he reminds us just how very funny and experienced he is in the world of television comedy.” \nHe also took his first step into bloody\, superhero glory in Season 3 of Amazon Prime’s Emmy-nominated The Boys playing “The Legend.” \nReiser is widely celebrated for his roles in two hit shows for Netflix: Stranger Things—the company’s biggest series of all time— and Chuck Lorre’s The Kominsky Method\, for which he received an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor. \nMad About You\, the long-running Emmy\, Peabody\, and Golden Globe-winning comedy that Reiser created and starred in with Helen Hunt returned as a limited series on Spectrum Originals. \nThroughout his prolific career\, Reiser has worked with both independent and mainstream filmmakers. Having earned acclaim for his supporting role in the Academy Award-winning film Whiplash\, Reiser was also seen in frequent collaborator Jeff Baena’s “The Little Hours” and “Horse Girl\,” which premiered at Sundance 2020\, the fourth film the pair has worked on together. The veteran actor has garnered praise for notable performances in films such as Diner\, Bye Bye Love\, One Night At McCool’s\, and The Thing About My Folks\, which Reiser wrote for his co-star Peter Falk. \nReiser is a fixture behind the camera as well. He co-created and produced the seven-episode series There’s Johnny\, a fictional story set behind-the-scenes of Johnny Carson’s Tonight Show circa 1972\, co-produced with director David Gordon Green. The show premiered to critical praise\, with Decider saying There’s Johnny! is “a television experience unlike any I’ve seen on TV in recent years” and “unfolds like a dream\, a memory fondly recalled.” \nAs an author\, Reiser’s first book\, Couplehood\, sold over two million copies and reached the number one spot on The New York Times bestsellers list. His subsequent books\, Babyhood and Familyhood\, were best sellers as well. \nVoted by Comedy Central as one of the Top 100 Comedians of All Time\, Reiser regularly performs sold-out standups at venues nationwide. \nA SUNY Binghamton graduate of its prestigious music program\, Reiser co-wrote the theme song for Mad About You\, “The Final Frontier\,” with Grammy-winning producer Don Was\, and released an album of original songs with British singer-songwriter Julia Fordham called Unusual Suspects. Over the course of his career\, Reiser has received multiple Emmys\, Golden Globes\, American Comedy Awards\, and Screen Actors Guild nominations. \nReiser and his family reside in Los Angeles.

SUMMARY:5-Day Bare Bones Wood Carving Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Here is a great opportunity to learn the fundamentals of woodcarving in 5 days from a professional! \nFor those of you who cannot find time for the five consecutive days\, this is what I do. If you take a two or three-day course you are taking the first two or three days of my five-day workshop which is broken up into daily learning chapters. So three days brings you to chapter three\, two days to chapter two. The weekend workshops will give you a basic understanding of the skill of wood carving which includes hand-carving technique\, sharpening\, and designing skills among other topics but the full training takes five days. You will also do the carving projects to reinforce the hand techniques that we talk about so that you gain much needed muscle memory in your hands. \nSome students may be satisfied with the information learned\, others may choose to find their way back for another weekend and finish the last two or three days to get all the necessary techniques and insights. When you return\, (it can be during that calendar year or the next) everyone else is at the beginning point on the start of the weekend\, but you pick up where you left off to finish your training. That’s the story in a nutshell. Call me if you are looking for more info. I am happy to answer any questions. \nAll class days run from 9 am – 5 pm. \nFor more information:\nCall: (978) 283-0231\nEmail: david@calvostudio.com\nWebsite: https://www.davidcalvo.com/woodcarving_classes.html

SUMMARY:CraneExplorer: Arbor Day Forest Fun
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate Arbor Day with a frolic through the forest on this all-ages education program which explores the biological need for habitat & shelter in an educational and experiential setting. Participants will discuss examples of shelters and dwellings\, why and how living things build shelters\, and share gratitude with the earth for providing the materials for these shelters. After brainstorming some building strategies & designs\, we will get active outside with a nature walk and then practice building shelters & fairy houses out of natural materials in the Pine Grove at Castle Hill. This program is a great way for young learners to spend time outdoors exploring creativity & gratitude for nature. \nCraneExplorer events are family-friendly programs welcoming learners of all ages. Hikes cover less ground to accommodate smaller strides and have more frequent stops to look\, listen\, and learn from our CraneExplorer guides. Interactive education programs include hands-on activities to engage our curiosity. CraneExplorer Programs are best suited for ages 5+. \nPlease be aware that we may walk for up to two hours and cover approximately 1-2 miles. As such\, adult discretion on your child’s ability to manage this activity is advised.

SUMMARY:Laurie Berkner (TWO SHOWS)
DESCRIPTION:Two Shows: 11AM & 3PM \nGive your child an unforgettable experience that will inspire a lifelong love of music and create lasting memories with the whole F-A-M-I-L-Y! \nLaurie Berkner has been a professional musician since 1992\, but her success as a children’s recording artist was a surprise to her. “It was so unexpected\,” says Laurie. “I’d been performing in rock bands and struggling to write original music. Writing music for kids has not been a struggle at all. The more I started working on material for children\, the more I realized that it opened up creativity in me that I never knew I had.” \nThese days critics widely acknowledge Laurie’s major contribution toward launching what is now dubbed the progressive “kindie rock” movement – i.e. less saccharine\, more rocking music that is not dumbed down for children. But it wasn’t simply an enormous amount of talent that helped create an entire genre and skyrocketed Laurie to her current position as “the queen of kids’ music” (People magazine). \nIt was an ability to gain parents’ enthusiasm for the songs as well. According to Laurie\, “When I’m writing a song\, I’m thinking about whether the kids will like it and whether I’m going to connect to them through it. I’m also thinking about whether I want to sing it over and over again\, so I guess that’s the part that connects with adults. ‘Old MacDonald Had a Farm’ is a great song for kids\, but I couldn’t sing it 100 times!”

SUMMARY:“By the First Ship from Salem:” The Voyage of the Schooner Quero\, April 28\, 1775.
DESCRIPTION:Salem Maritime National Historic Site is telling the story of a key but lesser-known voyage across the Atlantic Ocean 250 years ago to deliver news of rebellion in Massachusetts. In April 1775\, after the Battles of Lexington and Concord\, the race was on to control the narrative of the rebellion. Leaving from Derby Wharf onboard the schooner “Quero\,” Salem patriot Captain John Derby and his crew set sail for England on April 28th\, 1775. Onboard the ship were written accounts of the battle and sworn affidavits by participants. They aimed to beat the British ship “Sukey\,” which was carrying the British military report of the battles back to England. Despite the “Sukey” leaving four days earlier\, the nimble “Quero” arrived almost two weeks before the British vessel. The written accounts from the “Quero” were delivered to London\, where they were quickly disseminated throughout England.\n\n\nTo commemorate the 250th anniversary of the voyage of the “Quero\,” Salem Maritime National Historic Site is hosting a FREE EVENT at 7 pm on Monday\, April 28\, at the Salem Armory Regional Visitor Center (2 New Liberty Street). Titled “By the First Ship from Salem: The Voyage of the Schooner Quero\,” curator Dr. Emily Murphy will highlight the historical significance of this race across the Atlantic. Living history practitioners will read the original accounts from the “Quero” and the “Sukey.” Join us as we explore the tumultuous start of the American Revolution and how the news spread in 1775.\n\n\n\n\nNo reservations are required.

SUMMARY:Sea of Life
DESCRIPTION:Sea of Life is a collaborative project among three of the North Shore’s most prominent arts organizations: Rockport Art Association & Museum (RAA&M)\, The Orchestra on the Hill\, and Rockport Music (Shalin Liu Performance Center). Connecting young aspiring visual artists with professional composers\, the project will spur multifaceted community events celebrating the sea. \nCelebrating the Sea through Art & Music \nStudent artists from RAA&M’s Teen Arts Collaborative will learn from composers from The Orchestra on the Hill how visual art and concepts\, such as the sea\, can be parlayed into different musical styles. As students develop the art\, composers will brainstorm with them\, engage them in dialogue\, and write original orchestral compositions stemming from these creative exchanges. \nThe collaboration will culminate with exhibitions of the teens’ art at various local venues\, and a performance of the ensuing compositions at Rockport Music on April 30\, 2025. Audiences will experience a blend of visual art\, musical interpretation\, youthful perspective\, and adult collaboration\, all inspired by the sea.
