Artisans Way will once again present the much-anticipated annual showcase of Native American jewelry, animal fetishes, silver pieces, pottery, and more. Hosted by Diane Whitman, this will be the 14th year for this event, which brings to Concord unique pieces created by members of the Navajo Nation, Santo Domingo Pueblo, Zuni, and Acoma Pueblo tribe members.

Don't miss this annual family-friendly, fun-filled, foodie extravaganza! The cornerstone event is Debra's Natural Gourmet's 36th birthday bash, and the whole neighborhood joins in the fun. Enjoy live music, decorate your own pumpkin, join in art projects for the whole family, and lots of fantastic food samples and great retail specials await.

The orchestra performs music by Michael Torke, Samuel Barber, and Margaret Bonds.  Michael Torke’s Javelin was commissioned by the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra for its 50th anniversary and performed at the opening ceremony of the Atlanta Summer Olympics in 1996.  Samuel Barber’s lyrical Symphony No. 1 combines the four movements of a classical symphony into a single movement.  Margaret Bond’s Montgomery Variations was composed in 1964 and dedicated to Martin Luther King Jr.  It portrays the early history of the Civil Rights Movement, in particular the Montgomery Bus Boycott and its aftermath. 

October 18 performance at 8:00 pm with a pre-concert talk at 7:15 pm

October 19 performance at 2:30 pm
