The Bedford Town Calendar

Final week to view the bold new exhibition at The Umbrella Arts Center in Concord! Noted artist and curator Cedric Vise1 Douglas has found inspiration in a provocative work of theater, George C. Wolfe's satirical play, The Colored Museum, to create a visual journey of the Black Past, Present and Future. Offering a diverse array of media, styles and audience engagement experiences, The Colored Museum: Past/Present/Future features work by 9 emerging and established Black artists from throughout the eastern U.S. including Thomas "Kwest" Burns, Barrington Edwards, Ifé Franklin, Nettrice Gaskins, Shea Justice, Chaz Maviyane-Davies, Keith Morris Washington and Douglas himself. Also included is work by the late outsider artist, Justin Printice

Grounded, an exhibition with works by encaustic/wax artists Carol Krauss, Tracy Spadafora, and Sarah Springer will be on display at the Bedford Free Public Library until July 13, 2022. The event is free and open to the public. The public is invited to view the exhibit during regular library hours.

Jenn Bouchard will be selling and signing copies of her award-winning novel FIRST COURSE at J. McLaughlin in Concord on June 30th from 1-4 PM.
