Secret Society of Crafters – Hearts on Fiber

March 27 @ 10:00 a.m.

208 South Main Street

Crafting is more fun with other people, which is why we created the “Secret” Society of Crafters. The title says “secret,” but we’re a not-so-secret, not-so-exclusive group who meets to stitch, craft, crochet, knit, sit and talk. We may or may not talk about knitting, yarn bombing, hand dying, or the latest stitch. We may even talk about world domination. You won’t know unless you come. Connect with crafters in the area, find the motivation to pick up that project again, and benefit from the wisdom of a passionate crafting group. The “Secret” Society of Crafters meets outside the store every Wednesday and Sunday at 10:00 AM weather permitting. We hope to see you there!

 

Music @ St. Albans Presents “La Favorite” by Ensemble Vermillian – March 27

The title says it all! The foursome, veterans of performances in many settings, present some of their favorite chamber music from the 17th and 18th Centuries by composers from Italy, Germany, France, and England, music they transcribed for their period instruments. Performers are Frances Blaker on recorders, David Wilson on baroque violin, Barbara Krumdieck (Frances’ sister and M@SA’s artistic director) on baroque cello, and Barbara Weiss on harpsichord. The concert is preceded by a youth recital at 2:20 and followed by a meet-the-artists reception.

The concert will also be available via live streaming. For information about that option and latest COVID protocols, visit M@SA’s website: www.musicatstalbansdavidson.org. This event is made possible, in part, with funding from the ASC and support from WDAV. M@SA is a 501[c]3 non-profit organization.
