Take some fun, kid-friendly entertainment, mix it with professional-grade improvisational theater, and voilà! you have the “Happier Family Comedy Show” — a brand-new, monthly event — designed especially for kids by the folks who’ve kept their parents in stitches for years and featuring Williston alumni Paul McNeil ’01 and Sally Ekus ’03
The “Happier Family Comedy Show” will take place every third Saturday at the 121 Club in the Eastworks building at 116 North Pleasant St. in Easthampton. Each show will feature performers ready to knock each sock off, one at a time. Read more.
Starting today Maya Freelon Asante ’01
will be the artist in residence at The Stamp Gallery at the University of Maryland College Park. According to a press release by the gallery, VOLUME, the title of Ms. Asante’s exhibit, “will transform the gallery space into a colorful explosion of kinetic tissue paper art.”
Ms. Asante is the first artist to participate in the University’s new artist in residence program, AIR @ Stamp Gallery.
VOLUME is open to the public February 6th though March 7th from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. There will be a closing reception and performance on Thursday, March 6th, also from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m.
MassLive.com named Joe’s Cafe, owned by Meaghan Sullivan ’01, a Northampton restaurant that has “stood the test of time.” This is what reporter George Lenker had to say about the friendly, bustling, 70-year-old pizza joint:
Joe’s Cafe: If you’re looking for a definitive “townie” establishment, you will do no better than Joe’s. After all, it’s been around for more than 70 years. But unlike some more parochial venues, Joe’s is about as welcoming a place as you’ll find. If you sit at the bar (which is often crowded even during week nights), be prepared to get involved in a conversation. The cast of characters that populate this pizza parlor is both colorful and gregarious. And the decor alone is worth a visit.
