The Bower

&nbsp;Breath and Line pairs late Romantic chamber music for winds and strings with live visual art. From Amy Beach’s luminous flute Variations to the autumnal depth of Brahms’ Clarinet Quintet, from Elgar’s intimate Romance for bassoon to the radiant warmth of Florence Price’s Adoration, we trace how far a single melodic line can stretch, and how much feeling a single breath can hold.
Breath and Line continues our multi sensory, accessible series “Notes on Belonging”. As the music unfolds, visual artists respond in real time, tracing the contours and phrasing of the performance. The result is an immersive exploration of breath, movement, and line.
Arpeggione Ensemble: Andrea LeBlanc, flute Thomas Carroll, clarinet Allen Hamrick, bassoon David Rubin, violin Julia Connor Leach, violin Sachin Shukla, viol Jacques Lee Wood, cello

Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 2359 is proud to announce the VFW 2026 Day of Service to be held on Saturday, May 2, 2026, at the historic Holten Cemetery. From 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM, Post members and community volunteers will gather to honor those who served by cleaning veteran gravesites and assessing the overall state of repair within the cemetery grounds.
This initiative is part of the VFW’s ongoing commitment to stewardship and ensuring that the final resting places of our nation’s heroes are maintained with the dignity and respect they deserve. Volunteers will assist in removing debris, light cleaning of headstones using approved methods (soap and water only), and documenting markers that may require professional restoration or repair.
Maintaining the legacy of our veterans starts right here in our own backyard. This Day of Service is not just about maintenance; it’s about the community coming together to show that we have not forgotten the sacrifices made by those buried at Holten Cemetery.
Event Summary:
·What: VFW Post 2359 Day of Service
·When: Saturday, May 2nd, 2026, from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM
·Where: Holten Cemetery, 133 Holten St, Danvers, MA 01923
·Who: VFW Members and Community Participants
Participants are encouraged to bring work gloves, sunscreen, and a full water bottle. Additionally, because the cemetery’s water supply may not yet be turned on for the season, volunteers are kindly asked to bring a bucket of water and cleaning rags to assist with our efforts. 
<hr>
How to Sign Up
Whether you are a veteran, a student looking for community service hours, or a resident who wants to lend a hand, we welcome your participation. This event is open to all ages.

</ul>
In addition to the cleaning efforts, Post members will be conducting an informal assessment of the veterans’ graves to identify any headstones that have succumbed to the elements or require leveling, ensuring that a comprehensive report can be shared with local authorities for future preservation efforts.

The Cut - Stage • Studio • Restaurant • Bar

Charlestown-born Steve Sweeney is known as the "undisputed King of Boston comedy“, the embodiment of the city he calls home, a local guy who has become a nationally recognizable talent.
Sweeney is known not only as a headlining comedian, but also through his many memorable TV and movie appearances. During the early 1970s, a small group of Boston 'would-be' comedians performed regularly at a comedy club started by Martin Olson and Barry Crimmins in a back room of the Chinese restaurant, Ding-Ho, near Inman Square in Cambridge, MA. This group also included such unknowns as Lenny Clarke, Kevin Meaney, Jay Leno, Bobcat Goldthwait, Bill Sohonage, and Steven Wright. Steve stood out from the crowd by incorporating his great insight into the New England political scene into his act.
He was the first of the Boston super-stars to break into television, appearing on "Park Street Under," a Boston based sitcom that many believe was the inspiration for the highly successful television show "Cheers." He's also been on "Late Night with David Letterman," "Evening at The Improv" and "Comics Come Home." You might remember his small but hilarious parts in films such as Rodney Dangerfield's "Back to School," Judd Apatow's "Celtic Pride," and "There's Something About Mary" with Ben Stiller.

Join us for our 3rd Annual, Mother’s Day Weekend, Home Studio Show. Original artwork by Wenham artist Jeff Pacione who’s work ranges from realistic/semi-realistic plein air oil paintings created in numerous places across the country, to still lifes produced in his intimate home studio. With Jeff’s broad stylist scope and ability to capture dramatic color, lighting, and mood ­— you’ll be sure to find something that piques your interest.

<a href="https://www.instagram.com/jeffpacione/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@jeffpacione</a>

A branding and design specialist by trade, Jeff studied at Carnegie Mellon, worked in Boston and London for many years, and co-founded and ran Catapult Thinking from 2000 – 2015. 
Following a stroke during a triple by-pass in 2015, Jeff’s recovery process was long and difficult, bolstered by refocusing on the more artistic side of himself. He found his love of fine art again and has enjoyed honing his skills over the past six years. Despite having to relearn many things with his less dominant side, he now draws with his right hand and paints with his left. Jeff’s main challenge remains language retrieval (Aphasia).
We hope to see you there.
