Artists Randy LeSage, Robert Maloney and Mark Setevdemio will be in the gallery on Saturday to demonstrate various printmaking techniques. Refreshments will be served! Fitchburg Open Studios is a free, self-guided, art discovery tour, which takes place over the Fall weekend of October 19th and 20th, 2019. This tour allows you to visit with as many artists and locations as you desire, with each stop offering its own unique and varied experience. Using the City of Fitchburg as the “core” of the tour, Open Studios branches off to include artists in several neighboring communities, all of which are within an easy drive of each other. Simply grab a map, plan your day, and enjoy a little “leaf peeping” along the way! Whether you’re an experienced collector, new to the art scene, or simply curious about art and the creative process, this is an incredible opportunity to experience first-hand the actual working spaces, exhibition spaces, and studios of some of the most accomplished artists in the greater Fitchburg area. You will have an open and welcoming invitation to meet the artists, network, watch demonstrations and techniques, ask questions, study their creative space and processes, and if you desire, purchase artwork right from the source! This is a unique opportunity and an inspirational event. It is a great way to meet people who share your passion for art, “talk shop”, and interact with them in their own personal studio and workspace.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #660066;"><span style="font-size: large;">Join our costumed interpreters as they harvest apples, potatoes, carrots, and beets, conduct garden, and root cellar tours and discuss food preparation, thresh and winnow grain, and shell corn and beans. One of the most popular items of the fall harvest is apples. In New England, cider making is to autumn what maple sugaring is to spring. However, 19th-century farmers would not recognize the sweet cider we enjoy from farm stands today. Cider in the 1800s was not merely the apple juice, but was fermented “squeezings” from apples, which meant the cider would keep through the spring planting, summer heat and into the harvesting of the next apple season. Throughout the day, our interpreters will be cooking and preserving this special fall fruit and operating the ox-powered Cider Mill. For more information visit osv.org.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Admission and parking at the Sterling Fair is FREE. However, the fair relies on the sale of buttons, T-shirts, and ads to keep it free. Support your fair with a purchase or donation! We like to keep admission and parking free so you can enjoy spending the day with your family having fun at the fair. The fair is run completely by volunteers, and with an annual attendance of around 40,000 people, it takes a lot of work to keep the fair going. These volunteers include 20 members of the Sterling Fair committee and over 50 additional people who help setup, run, and clean up after the fair.

My move to central Massachusetts thirty years ago introduced me to the hills of Worcester County, which stretch to the New Hampshire border and beyond. From central New England my travels have taken me west to Yosemite, north to Muir woods and south to Half Moon Bay.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Directions:</h3>
<div class="instructions" itemprop="recipeInstructions">
<ol style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<li style="margin-left: 20px; padding-bottom: 5px;">Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease and lightly flour three 9x2 inch cake pans with nonstick spray. Set aside.</li>
<li style="margin-left: 20px; padding-bottom: 5px;"><strong style="font-family: Solomon, Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, sans-serif;">Make the cake: </strong>Using a handheld or stand mixer with a paddle attachment, beat the butter on high until creamy - about 1 minute. Add granulated and brown sugars and beat on medium-high speed until creamed, about 2-3 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla. Beat on medium speed until everything is completely combined, about 2 full minutes. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. Set aside.</li>
<li style="margin-left: 20px; padding-bottom: 5px;">In a large sized bowl, toss together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Beat on low speed for 5 seconds, then add the milk, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Remove from the mixer and stir lightly until everything is just combined. Toss the blueberries in 1 Tablespoon of flour and fold into the batter. Batter is extremely thick. Do not overmix at any point. Overmixing will lend a tough, dense textured crumb.</li>
<li style="margin-left: 20px; padding-bottom: 5px;">Spoon batter evenly into 3 prepared cake pans. If only using 2 cake pans, your bake time will be longer. Bake the three layers for about 21-26 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Mine took 21 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before frosting.</li>
<li style="margin-left: 20px; padding-bottom: 5px;"><strong style="font-family: Solomon, Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, sans-serif;">Make the frosting: </strong>Using a handheld or stand mixer with a paddle attachment, beat cream cheese and butter together on medium speed until no lumps remain, about 3 full minutes. Add confectioners' sugar, 1 Tablespoon cream, vanilla extract, and salt with the mixer running on low. Increase to high speed and beat for 3 minutes. Add 1 more Tablespoon of cream to thin out, if desired. (*I added the juice from 1 lemon to the frosting and bit more confectioners' sugar.)</li>
<li style="margin-left: 20px; padding-bottom: 5px;"><strong style="font-family: Solomon, Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, sans-serif;">Assemble and frost: </strong>First, using a large serrated knife, trim the tops off the cake layers to create a flat surface. Place 1 layer on your cake stand. Evenly cover the top with cream cheese frosting. Top with 2nd layer, more frosting, then the third layer. Top with frosting and spread around the sides. The recipe doesn't make a ton of frosting, just enough for a light frost. Top with blueberries or lemon garnish if desired. Refrigerate for at least 45 minutes before cutting or else the cake may fall apart as you cut.</li>
<li style="margin-left: 20px; padding-bottom: 5px;"><strong style="font-family: Solomon, Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, sans-serif;">Make ahead tip:</strong> Prepare cakes and frosting 1 day in advance. Keep cakes at room temperature, covered tightly. Refrigerate prepared frosting in an airtight container until ready to use. Frosted or unfrosted cakes may be frozen up to 2 months, thaw overnight in the refrigerator and bring to room temperature if desired before serving.</li>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">In an ovenproof fry pan over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the sausage and cook, stirring and breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until the meat begins to brown, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage to paper towels to drain. Discard the fat in the pan.<br /><br />Preheat a broiler.<br /><br />In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, 2 tsp. of the basil, the salt and pepper. Set the pan over medium heat and melt the butter. Return the sausage to the pan and add the bell pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and cook until the edges of the frittata begin to set, about 30 seconds. Using a heatproof spatula, lift the cooked edges of the frittata and tilt the pan to allow the liquid egg on top to flow underneath. Continue cooking, occasionally lifting the frittata and tilting it again, until the top is almost set, about 4 minutes more.<br /><br />Sprinkle the top of the frittata with the cheese. Place under the broiler until the frittata puffs and becomes golden brown, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tsp. basil. Cut into wedges and serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

of decorative techniques - marbling, blue-and-white ceramic traditions, and

exhibition features the most comprehensive group of oils made during or
emerging directly from Homer's time abroad. Shown alongside comparative
paintings by English artists, these works complicate our understanding of
Homer's art as purely American in subject and style. Following its run in
Worcester, the show will be on view at the Milwaukee Art Museum from March

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">26, Friday – Lee Ann Womack performs at the Bull Run – </b>8:00 p.m. (Doors open at 6:00 p.m. for dinner and seating.) Artists don’t
really make albums like<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong><a href="http://preorder.leeannwomack.com/">Lee Ann Womack</a></strong>’s "THE LONELY, THE LONESOME AND
THE GONE" anymore. Albums that seem to exist separate and apart from any
external pressures. Albums that possess both a profound sense of history and a
clear-eyed vision for the future. Albums that transcend genres while embracing
their roots. Albums that evoke a sense of place and of personality so vivid
they make listeners feel more like participants in the songs than simply
admirers of them. Anybody who has paid attention to Womack for the past decade
or so could see she was headed in this direction. THE LONELY, THE LONESOME AND
THE GONE (ATO Records) — a breathtaking hybrid of country, soul, gospel
and blues — comes from Womack’s core. “I could never shake my center of
who I was,” says the East Texas native. “I’m drawn to rootsy music. It’s what
moves me.” Recorded at Houston’s historic SugarHill Recording Studios and
produced by Womack’s husband and fellow Texan, Frank Liddell (fresh off a 2017
ACM Album of the Year win for Miranda Lambert’s ‘The Weight of These Wings’), THE
LONELY, THE LONESOME AND THE GONE marks the culmination of a journey that
began with Womack’s 2005 CMA Album of the Year ‘There’s More Where That Come
From,’ moving her toward an authentic American music that celebrates her roots
and adds to the canon. It also underscores the emergence of Womack’s
songwriting voice: She has more writing credits among this album’s 14 tracks
than on all her previous albums combined. Womack found the lure of East Texas
irresistible. “I love local things, and I missed local music,” she says. “I
grew up in Jacksonville. It was small, so I spent a lot of time dreaming, and
about getting out.” It required only a short leap of logic to view Houston, and
specifically SugarHill, as the place to record. “When you make albums, and aren’t
just going for singles, you really have to treat them with respect,” Liddell
adds. “We did that at SugarHill, taking a bunch of like-minded lunatics and
seeing what happened.” “We all felt we weren’t going someplace just to make a
record,” Womack says. “We were going someplace to make a great record.”
Don’t just take her word for it, though. Listen. And when Womack and the music
take you there, you’ll find you want to stay. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Imagine
the tale of a Yankee peddler passing through the village who decides to settle
down at the Bullard Tavern on a cold winter's night. There the peddler spends
every dollar he has earned on food and drink, racking up a tab far beyond his
means. After being confronted over his debt, the peddler fills up his cup with
ashes from the hearth and promises the tavern owner that he will return with a
cup overflowing of gold. From the Bullard Tavern, costumed storytellers,
artisans, and villagers will entice tavern guests to wander deep into the
village where they will find evidence of the peddler’s adventures and schemes.
Admission to a <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Midwinter Mischief </i>includes
the two-hour outdoor/indoor experience and a period-inspired meal in the
Village’s Bullard Tavern where guests can enjoy live music, demonstrations, and
a cash bar featuring hot beverages and 1830s-inspired libations. Each day, the
first experience departs the Visitor Center at 9:00 am and the last at 3:00 pm,
with experiences beginning every 20 minutes (except for noon and 12:20). After
your adventure, you will be led to the Bullard Tavern Great Room where you can
enjoy your inclusive hearty soup or stew meal (soup options include Beef Stew
(gluten-free), Tomato Vegetable (gluten-free and vegan), and New England Clam
Chowder.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Imagine
the tale of a Yankee peddler passing through the village who decides to settle
down at the Bullard Tavern on a cold winter's night. There the peddler spends
every dollar he has earned on food and drink, racking up a tab far beyond his
means. After being confronted over his debt, the peddler fills up his cup with
ashes from the hearth and promises the tavern owner that he will return with a
cup overflowing of gold. From the Bullard Tavern, costumed storytellers,
artisans, and villagers will entice tavern guests to wander deep into the
village where they will find evidence of the peddler’s adventures and schemes.
Admission to a <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Midwinter
Mischief </i>includes the two-hour outdoor/indoor
experience and a period-inspired meal in the Village’s Bullard Tavern where
guests can enjoy live music, demonstrations, and a cash bar featuring hot
beverages and 1830s-inspired libations. Each day, the first experience departs
the Visitor Center at 9:00 am and the last at 3:00 pm, with experiences
beginning every 20 minutes (except for noon and 12:20). After your adventure,
you will be led to the Bullard Tavern Great Room where you can enjoy your
inclusive hearty soup or stew meal (soup options include Beef Stew (gluten-free),
Tomato Vegetable (gluten-free and vegan), and New England Clam Chowder.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</b>– 1:00 p.m. Daniel Radcliffe, Joshua McGuire, and
David Haig star in Tom Stoppard’s brilliantly funny situation comedy, filmed at

Against the backdrop of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Hamlet</i>,
two hapless minor characters, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, take centre
stage. As the young double act stumble their way in and out of the
action of Shakespeare’s iconic drama, they become increasingly out of their
depth as their version of the story unfolds. Runtime is approximately 3 hours

work by Donald Saaf, Torin Porter, Josh Bernbaum, and Jackie Abrams, and select
work by our gallery artists.</b> Painter and collage artist
Donald Saaf creates work at the intersection of fine and folk art, exploring
place as it is experienced in one’s memory. His newest pieces reflect themes of
inner growth and contentment. Torin Porter’s steel sculptures engage our
imagination with his playful, stylized figures. His newest work is richly
symbolic of conflict and transcendence. Josh Bernbaum’s hand blown glass stands
out with its vibrant colors, patterns, and surprising intricate textures. New
work featured in this show is inspired by patterns of West African textiles and
cacti in the Southwest. Fiber artist Jackie Abrams explores feminine form and
experience through her woven vessels, with delicate and luminescent pieces
featured in this show. Erika Radich has been involved in the arts administratively and
professionally for over 30 years. Since her college years she has chosen
printmaking as a compass and vehicle to best express her artistic vision,
comforted by the practice and humility she gains from the medium’s extensive
technical repetition. She exhibits her work regionally and internationally and
is an active member of Zea Mays Printmaking Center in Florence, MA.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
