SUMMARY:Salt Lick Sessions
DESCRIPTION:The Umbrella’s expanded Concert Series in partnership with Salt Lick Incubator showcases some of your future-favorite musical acts that have emerged through the Salt Lick program. Each concert spotlights the incredible talents of tomorrow’s groundbreaking artists\, creates support and lets you say you knew them back when! Come be part of the music at The Umbrella’s spring Salt Lick Sessions concert Friday\, March 27 featuring Claire Ernst & Dani Offline. \nABOUT THE ARTISTS:\nClaire Ernst is an emerging pop/R&B artist out of Nashville\, who just released her debut full length album\, Oh\, Hello!: a vibrant introduction of her artistry to the world. Striking a fresh balance of Nashville Songwriting\, pop hooks\, and R&B grooves\, she is genre blending and bending with every new release. \nDani Offline is a songwriter\, producer\, and multi-instrumentalist making analog R&B for the 21st century. Inspired by jazz and classic “Quiet Storm” radio of the 70s\, her sound is at once sensual and introspective\, combining poetic lyricism\, ethereal vocal improvisation\, and retrofuturist sensibilities.

SUMMARY:(The )Magic(al) (Is/of )Here: Large-Scale Paintings of Local Flowers by Maggie Stanley
DESCRIPTION:April 3-30 in the Munroe Gallery at the Concord Main Library. See library website for daily hours. \nImmerse yourself in the beauty of local flowers as we await their blooming in later spring and summer. \nMost of the paintings in this show are based on photographs taken on walks throughout Concord\, including at Great Meadows\, the Buttrick Estate\, Concord Community Gardens\, the “wisteria house” across the street from the Main Library\, and even the Keyes Road municipal parking lot. \nMany of the works were created in 2024 for Flora(l) Portals\, my solo show in the skylit atrium of the Morse Institute Library in Natick\, MA. Because the pieces were hung from balcony railings and viewed from a distance\, I used canvases ranging from 3 to 6 feet in height—hence the name of that show\, as some of the paintings are almost the size of doors. \nI’m a largely self-taught artist\, born and raised in Massachusetts\, with my childhood spent in Arlington\, Sudbury\, and then Concord\, where I now reside. Although I’ve worked in multiple mediums\, my main focus the past few years has been floral paintings on textured canvas\, which I started while in Lois Andersen’s Monday Night Painters group at The Umbrella Arts Center. I am ever-appreciative of Lois\, the camaraderie of the group\, and the variety of local trails and publicly-accessible gardens that provide such an abundance of beauty. I hope my art can convey some of that beauty to others\, no matter the season\, and encourage exploration when the conditions are right! \nwww.maggiestanley.net
