SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Blooms - Lora Barrett at Wistariahurst Museum
DESCRIPTION:During the month of September Wistariahurst Museum’s great hall will be filled with florals as we welcome in “Blooms”\, an art exhibit by painter Lora Barrett. This exhibit will feature 99 vibrant paintings of flowers of varying sizes. An avid gardener\, Lora Barrett maintains her gardens as a reference and muse for her highly colored paintings\, pushing the vibrancy of the flowers to the limit. Wistariahurst Museum will be hosting a solo show of 99 of her floral paintings from September 2-25\, 2025.  \nBarrett’s artistic journey began with a childhood marked by curiosity and a passion for art. This passion was fueled by supportive parents and teachers. She carried her passion for the arts into her adulthood as she majored in Art at The College of Our Lady of the Elms and began teaching Art in Holyoke upon graduation. While teaching in Holyoke\, she continued her studies at the University of Massachusetts Amherst\, where she earned a Doctorate in Education and later taught Art Education at the University. Barrett has received several awards throughout her life for her artwork and for her work in arts education. She has continued her education at Cape Cod School of Art\, the Chatham Creative Arts Center\, the En Plein Air Art School in France\, and Snow Farm\, among others.  \nBarrett’s work has been shown in several galleries across the region\, and Wistariahurst is excited to have her work in our halls once more. Her paintings are in personal collections in France\, Canada\, Mexico\, Italy\, England\, and Ireland and in the permanent collection of the United States Federal Reserve in Washington\, DC.  \nThe opening reception of  “Blooms” will be held Tuesday\, September 2 from 4:30-7:00pm. Open Gallery Hours will be held on Mondays (10am-2pm) and Tuesdays (4:30pm-6:30pm) through September 25th\, which will also be free and open to the public. The exhibit will also be on view during Wistariahurst’s Sunday Fundays and other public events through September 25th. Barrett will be hosting some events corresponding with her exhibit at Wistariahurst. Saturday\, September 6th from 10:00am-1:00pm will be Painting in the Garden with Lora Barrett. Paint in the Wisty Gardens with Lora\, or just come to watch as she demonstrates her craft. Some easels will be provided\, but artists should bring their own art supplies. There will also be an artists talk on Tuesday\, September 9th\, 5:30- 6:30pm where Lora will discuss the making of Blooms. We hope that you stop by and explore Lora Barrett’s Blooms.  \nThis program is funded in part by a grant from the Holyoke Local Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency.

SUMMARY:NCC Hydra Cross
DESCRIPTION:NCC Hydra Cross is one of New England’s premier\, early season cyclocross races. Cyclocross is a great way for people of all ages to dip their toes into the world of competitive bike racing. Join us!\nNew to bike racing?: Hydra Cross is a great event to try out bike racing or cyclocross for the first time. There is a free intro to cyclocross racing clinic at 8:00 am on race day that is taught by local\, friendly bike racers. Learn the basics to help you enjoy your race. Beginner races follow shortly after — novice men should sign up for the 9:00 am category 4 and beginner race\, and novice women should sign up for the 11:00 am women’s category 4 and 5 race. Just a note on lingo\, brand-new racers and novices start as ‘category 5’ racers. Since we are a USA Cycling sanctioned race\, you will need a license but can purchase one when you register at http://bikereg.com/hydracross for $15. If you have any questions about the clinic or racing\, please just shoot us an email at hydracrossrace@gmail.com and we’ll respond with what you need. \nCourse Description: A fun\, fast\, twisty course that is primarily flat but has some surprising uphill kickers. After a slightly uphill\, wide start from the “Legion Shelf\,” the course heads towards Holyoke’s “Muscle Beach” and the hilly southern end of the park. The course design takes full advantage of the elevation to make riders work – but then also brings rewards with a swooping downhill that cuts back and forth across the hill. We have some stinging off-camber sections that will require your skills\, with the most challenging and decisive sector coming at the end of the course (see YouTube videos below for a preview). The course runs the full length of the long\, linear park with ample opportunities for spectating\, with continuous announcing throughout the race by the voice of NCC Hydra Cross 2025\, Jake Kravitz. Mountain and river views abound. \nEquipment Recommendation: File treads (if dry) and all-around tires will work well for most riders. The course is a mix of grass\, dirt\, and some pavement. New to cyclocross? Mountain bikes\, in any shape\, work fine for getting started racing. Road or touring bikes that allow for 32mm tires also work fine. \nRace Atmosphere: Come for the race\, stay for the atmosphere. Our beer garden and picnic area are family-friendly. There is a playground\, splash pad\, and popular skate park as well. Our race is known for its good vibes and community-driven feel. \nThe excellent Thai Chili Street Food Hub will be serving food in the American Legion Parking lot at lunch time. As usual\, expect the American Legion to be serving up coffee\, breakfast items\, beer and alcohol throughout the day\, in addition to lunch and snack items. \n¿Eres nuevo en las carreras de bicicleta?: Hydra Cross es un evento excelente para probar correr en bicicleta o hacer ciclocrós por primera vez. Hay una clínica gratuita de introducción a las carrera de ciclocrós a las 8 am el día de la carrera que es impartida por corredores de bicicleta locales y amistosos. Aprende los conceptos básicos para ayudarte a disfrutar de tu carrera. Las carreras para principiantes empiezan poco tiempo después — los hombres novatos deberían inscribirse para la carrera de principiantes categoría 5 de las 9 am\, y las mujeres novatas deberían inscribirse para la carrera categoría 4 y 5 de las 10 am. Solo un comentario sobre la jerga\, los corredores nuevos y los novatos comienzan como corredores ‘categoría 5’. Debido a que somos una carrera sancionada por USA Cycling\, necesitarás una licencia\, pero puedes comprar una por $15 cuando te inscribes en http://bikereg.com/hydracross. Si tienes alguna pregunta acerca de la clínica o las carreras\, por favor envíanos un correo electrónico a hydracrossrace@gmail.com y te responderemos con la información que necesitas. \nDescripción del Recorrido: Un recorrido divertido\, rápido y sinuoso que es principalmente plano\, pero tiene algunas subidas inesperadas. Después de un comienzo levemente cuesta arriba y amplio desde “Legion Shelf”\, el recorrido se dirige hacia “Muscle Beach” en Holyoke y hacia el extremo sur montañoso del parque. El diseño del recorrido aprovecha al máximo la elevación para hacer trabajar a los corredores\, pero también trae recompensas con un descenso en picada a través de la colina que acorta las idas y vueltas. Tenemos algunos punzantes sectores off-camber que requerirán de tus habilidades\, siendo el sector más decisivo y desafiante el que está al final del recorrido (ver el video de Youtube indicado más abajo para una vista preliminar). El recorrido abarca la longitud completa del largo parque lineal\, con amplias oportunidades para los espectadores\, con relato continuo durante la carrera por la voz de Hydra Cross\, Adam Syzmkowickz. Abundan las vistas a la montaña y al río. \nRecomendaciones de Equipamiento: Neumáticos con banda de rodamiento lisa (para terreno seco) y multiuso funcionarán bien para la mayoría de los corredores. El recorrido es una combinación de pasto\, tierra y algo de pavimento. ¿Eres nuevo en el ciclocrós? Las bicicletas de montaña\, en cualquier estado\, funcionan bien para empezar a correr. Las bicicletas de carretera o de turismo que permiten usar neumáticos de 32mm también funcionan bien. \nAmbiente de Competición: Ven por la carrera\, quédate por el ambiente. Nuestro patio cervecero y zona de picnic son aptos para familias. Hay un patio de juegos\, juegos de agua y también un parque para patinetas muy popular. Nuestra carrera es conocida por sus buenas vibras y por la sensación de comunidad.

SUMMARY:Gipsy Jazz Brunch With Christine Tassan et les Imposteures
DESCRIPTION:Delight all of your senses with an elegant Francophone inspired brunch buffet\, aromatic locally roasted coffee\, fragrant mimosas\, and world class Gypsy Jazz. The brunch is pre-fix\, with access to the entire buffet. If you’re not that hungry\, choose the coffee and pastry option\, or simply come for the music. \nFor more than 20 years\, guitarist Christine Tassan has led her boat with brio\, aplomb and an absolutely contagious dynamism. One of the rare female jazz guitarist and gypsy jazz soloists\, also singer\, composer\, author\, director and producer\, she takes part in numerous musical projects in Quebec and on the international scene\, both as a leader and as a guest musician. \nWith nearly 20 years of bringing their special blend of Gypsy jazz and revisited cover songs to audiences\, Christine Tassan et les Imposteures have made a name for themselves on the music scene. \nPioneers in a domain usually reserved for men and precursors of the gypsy wave that swept across Québec\, this quartet led by guitarist Christine Tassan continues to reinvent this timeless music while integrating new ideas and influences with an originality and flair we have become familiar with. From standards to original compositions\, the Imposteures’ musical arrangements innovate\, rejuvenate and leave room for unbridled creativity from four talented and accomplished musicians.

SUMMARY:Walter Parks & The Unlawful Assembly
DESCRIPTION:“The first time I saw Walter Parks I knew I was witnessing a rare talent! From a whisper out of heaven to a 747 like roar Walter can write it\, sing it and play it all!”\n– JJ Grey \nWitness a one-of-a-kind musical experience as Walter Parks & The Unlawful Assembly take the stage with their genre-bending fusion of historic spirituals\, gospel\, blues\, and American roots traditions. \nThis isn’t a nostalgia act — it’s a reinvention. With deep reverence and cutting-edge arrangements\, the band brings new life to prison work chants\, shape-note hymns\, and swamp hollers\, layering them with jazz\, soul\, and modern grooves. Backed by standout collaborators including drummer/producer Steven Williams\, vocalist Ada Dyer\, and trombonist Andrae Murchison\, the group’s sound is both grounded in history and defiantly forward-looking. \nExpect a soulful\, swampy\, and cinematic performance — one that not only honors the past but sparks fresh dialogue about resistance\, hope\, and the healing power of collective music.

SUMMARY:Dinosaurs in the Driveway with Sarah Doyle
DESCRIPTION:Visit Wistariahurst Museum to experience Dinosaurs in the Driveway with Sarah Doyle. Doyle dives into the history of the dinosaur tracks leading up to Wistariahurst. In 1927\, when Belle Skinner had slabs of sandstone with dinosaur footprints laid as a driveway to Wistariahurst\, it may have seemed an idiosyncratic choice. Although the tracks were well known locally\, dinosaurs had not yet made the big mark on pop culture we see today. It is only in recent years that scientific interest in the footprints has been revived\, yet their discovery in the valley in 1835 made our local small towns and people well known to scientists in Britain and Europe. How the Connecticut River Valley became part of international dialogue over identifying what had made the footprints — if they even were footprints! — makes a fascinating trip into another little slice of local history. \nSarah Doyle has investigated the history of the discovery of dinosaur footprints since 1990. She was lead writer for the Pocumtuck Valley Memorial Association’s Impressions from a Lost World website and since 2010 has directed Jurassic Roadshow\, a pop-up exhibit of local fossils that includes amateur fossil collectors\, academic paleontologists and geologists\, historical re-enactors\, and learning activities. Jurassic Roadshow was the impetus for the creation of DinoFest\, held annually in Greenfield since 2017\, often in collaboration with Jonathan Mirin’s Piti Theatre group for children. She has written papers on the mostly unknown figures in the story of the discovery\, including three in collaboration with the late Robert Herbert. \nVisit Wistariahurst Museum July 20th from 1:00-2:00pm for Dinosaurs on the Driveway. \nDinosaurs in the Driveway is funded by a grant from the Holyoke Local Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency. \nVisite el Museo Wistariahurst y descubra Dinosaurios en el camino de entrada con Sarah Doyle. Doyle se sumerge en la historia de las huellas de dinosaurio que conducen a Wistariahurst. En 1927\, cuando Belle Skinner mandó colocar losas de arenisca con huellas de dinosaurios como camino de entrada a Wistariahurst\, pudo parecer una elección idiosincrásica. Aunque las huellas eran bien conocidas en la localidad\, los dinosaurios aún no habían dejado la gran huella en la cultura popular que vemos hoy en día. Sólo en los últimos años se ha reavivado el interés científico por las huellas\, pero su descubrimiento en el valle en 1835 hizo que los científicos de Gran Bretaña y Europa conocieran bien nuestros pueblos y gentes. La forma en que el valle del río Connecticut se convirtió en parte del diálogo internacional sobre la identificación de las huellas -¡si es que eran huellas! — es un viaje fascinante a otro pequeño fragmento de la historia local. \nSarah Doyle investiga la historia del descubrimiento de huellas de dinosaurio desde 1990. Fue redactora jefe del sitio web Impressions from a Lost World de la Pocumtuck Valley Memorial Association y desde 2010 dirige Jurassic Roadshow\, una exposición itinerante de fósiles locales que incluye coleccionistas aficionados\, paleontólogos y geólogos académicos\, recreadores históricos y actividades de aprendizaje. Jurassic Roadshow fue el impulso para la creación de DinoFest\, que se celebra anualmente en Greenfield desde 2017\, a menudo en colaboración con el grupo de teatro infantil Piti Theatre de Jonathan Mirin. Ha escrito artículos sobre las figuras\, en su mayoría desconocidas\, de la historia del descubrimiento\, incluidos tres en colaboración con el difunto Robert Herbert. \nVisite el Museo Wistariahurst el 20 de julio de 13:00 a 14:00 para ver Dinosaurios en el camino de entrada. \nDinosaurs on the Driveway se financia con una subvención del Consejo Cultural Local de Holyoke\, un organismo local que cuenta con el apoyo del Consejo Cultural de Massachusetts\, un organismo estatal.

SUMMARY:More Love | EP 3 Riobamba (NYC) and DEEJAY THEORY
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the third installment of our new global dance night exploring the past\, present and future of dance music across a broadening spectrum of genres — from disco to dembow\, afrobeats to amapiano — an expanding palette of sounds\, beats\, and languages. \nRiobamba is a first-generation\, Ecuadorian-Lithuanian sound artist\, scholar\, death doula\, and cultural activist based in New York City. Her rowdy\, deeply researched live sets reflect back nightlife’s power as a site of joy and resistance\, amplifying connective tissues between  YouTube clips\, bodega soundtracks\, and noise hyperreality “suped up with a twisted\, industrial gnarl” (Complex). The Fader has called her production work “a radically self-expressive piece of futurism that stands against a single\, boxed-in definition of what Latinx club music can be.” She is founder of APOCALIPSIS\, a record label that amplifies artists of the Global South and diaspora\, and is intent on restructuring the music industry to center and pay BIPOC creators. \nDEEJAY THEORY (ORIGINAL TING MUSIC\, FACTION SOUND\, MA)\, a New England native by way of San Francisco\, Deejay Theory has been swimming in international musical waters for most of his adult life. While out West\, he co-hosted the legendary club night TORMENTA TROPICAL\, a decade-long dance party in SF’s Mission district. His in-demand DJ sets diffuse a multiplicity of genres with careful craftsmanship\, exquisitely blended with near-zero turbulence and maximal groove.

SUMMARY:Buckwheat Zydeco Jr. And the legendary Ils Sont Partis Band

Over time\, he became a skilled multi-instrumentalist\, mastering the accordion\, Hammond B-3 organ\, and more\, ultimately stepping into the role of frontman for the Ils Sont Partis Band\, a group founded by his father. \nBuckwheat’s career has included collaborations with musical legends like Eric Clapton\, Paul Simon\, Willie Nelson\, and Mavis Staples\, performing at prestigious events\, including two inaugural balls. His dynamic presence has been showcased on shows like The David Letterman Show and Good Morning America. \nBuckwheat has earned numerous accolades\, including two Grammy Awards\, an Emmy Award\, and multiple Grammy nominations. His 2024 album New Beginnings won Best Regional Roots Music Album at the 66th Annual GRAMMY Awards\, while he and the Ils Sont Partis Band received induction into the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame. \nFollowing the passing of his father in 2016\, Buckwheat Jr. continues to lead the Ils Sont Partis Band\, ensuring the legacy of zydeco music is carried forward with his son\, Kyle Anthony Dural\, performing alongside him. With over 2\,500 performances worldwide\, Buckwheat Zydeco Jr. remains a vital ambassador for zydeco\, blues\, and Louisiana’s rich musical heritage.

SUMMARY:BASIC - Minimalist Funk\, Maximal Impact
DESCRIPTION:This Philadelphia trio – Chris Forsyth (guitar)\, Mikel Patrick Avery (percussion/electronics)\, and Douglas McCombs (Tortoise bassist!) – creates taut\, hypnotic grooves that sound like “Bo Diddley with a chorus pedal” or “Yo La Tengo on a Congotronics bender”! Their polyrhythmic drum programming\, interlocking guitars\, and live electronic manipulation turn minimalism into pure maximalism through sheer repetitive power and ecstatic presence! \nFresh off their acclaimed debut “This Is BASIC” and with new EP “Dream City” droped March 7th\, they’re proving that sometimes the most underground influences create the most forward-thinking sounds! \nWatch these three masters of “friendly surveillance” lock into semi-improvised “fields” (not songs!) that shift and evolve with just a nod or glance – it’s musical telepathy in action! \nFor fans of genre-defying music that challenges and rewards\, BASIC delivers an unforgettable live experience.

Tanto si eres un artesano de temporada como un principiante total\, este taller relajado y acogedor es la manera perfecta de pasar una tarde de verano. Pasarás una sesión vespertina rodeada de abalorios brillantes y vibraciones veraniegas con una gran compañía y diversión creativa. \nNo sólo estarás celebrando el verano y la creatividad individual\, sino que tu participación también ayuda al museo. En un gesto sincero y generoso\, Trudy Monson dona a Wistariahurst todos los beneficios de la venta de entradas para este taller. El precio de la entrada incluye todos los materiales\, y cada dólar se destinará directamente a futuros programas y esfuerzos de restauración en el museo. Esperamos que se pasen por aquí para disfrutar de esta increíble tarde de diversión veraniega.
