SUMMARY:These Are The Days - Newton Family Singers Celebrate the Music of Lilith Fair
DESCRIPTION:Join the Newton Family Singers as we celebrate the music of Lilith Fair. This concert will be a bit different from our usual performances. Instead of focusing on a single artist\, we’re honoring several talented musicians who were part of the traveling music festival\, Lilith Fair. \nLilith Fair was a groundbreaking festival that took place during the summers of 1997 to 1999 and was revived in 2010. It featured female solo artists and female-led bands\, providing a platform for their voices to be heard. This gives us the opportunity to perform a wide variety of favorites from musicians you know and love\, such as Natalie Merchant\, Sheryl Crow\, The Chicks\, Indigo Girls\, Sarah McLachlan\, Lisa Loeb\, 10\,000 Maniacs\, Jewel\, Alanis Morissette\, Des’ree\, Shawn Colvin\, and Tracy Chapman! \nProceeds from this season’s concert will go to The Second Step. The Second Step fosters the safety\, stability\, and well-being of those who have experienced domestic violence. They provide comprehensive services\, including safety planning\, legal advocacy\, counseling\, peer support\, transitional housing\, and other essential services to adults\, youth\, and children in Greater Boston and MetroWest. \nhttps://www.newtonfamilysingers.org/events.html

SUMMARY:Historic Newton Presents Newton History Series: A Pressing Matter - 18th Century Media Literacy and Bias
DESCRIPTION:Media and information literacy are essential 21st-century skills in order to be an informed citizen. These are also skills that\, when applied in a historical context\, help us become better historians. In this discussion\, we will analyze perspective\, language\, and bias in 18th-century newspapers\, with a critical lens on how news was consumed in colonial America. \nAbout the speaker: Michele Gabrielson is a local history teacher and historic interpreter of the 18th century. When she is not teaching in the classroom\, Michele can be found leading tours\, lectures\, and demonstrations at historic sites in the greater Boston area. She specializes in interpreting the history of colonial women printers\, the stories of loyalist refugees\, and of 18th century chocolate makers! Most recently\, she has taken on building a first-person impression of the revolutionary playwright and poet Mercy Otis Warren. Michele additionally serves on several historical committees dedicated to helping preserve the history of colonial America\, is a member of the Authenticity Standards Committee for Minuteman National Historic Park\, and is the coordinator for the Battle Road Guides for the annual reenactment of the Battle of Lexington and Concord. She was recently awarded a 2024 Rising Star Award for Public History by the Massachusetts History Alliance for her programming titled\, “The Revolutionary Classroom\,” and named a finalist for the 2024 Massachusetts History Teacher of the Year. \nThis program is part of the Newton History Series\, co-sponsored by Historic Newton and the Newton Free Library. Look out for lectures in both February and March 2025. \nThursday\, January 16\, 7:00 – 8:00 p.m.\nNewton Free Library\, Druker Auditorium\nFree\, registration not required
