  • Photography Group

    Photography Group
    Fall River Public Library 104 North Main St, Fall River, MA

    The Fall River Public Library invites all photography enthusiasts to join our new Photography Group. On the last Wednesday of each month, participants will share their work, provide feedback, and join in open discussion about the wonderful art of photography! A monthly, optional theme will be picked at random to help inspire and prompt our members to make new and exciting work to share each session. Participants are asked to bring in a thumbdrive of their work, with a selection of 5-10 photos, if they intend to share with the group that month. While we gladly accept photographers at all stages of their journeys, the Photography Group does not offer photography lessons. We do encourage our participants to ask questions about photography, and to share tips and tricks they’ve learned with each other. This program is intended for photographers ages 13 and up.

  • Jon Cleary and The Absolute Monster Gentlemen

    Narrows Center for the Arts 16 Anawan St., Fall River, MA

    Friday, October 2, 2026 $50 Advance | $52 Day of Show Doors 7pm | Show 8pm After thirty-five years of being at the forefront of the ever-evolving musical landscape of New Orleans, Grammy Award winner Jon Cleary decided to bring that sound back home, both figuratively and literally. He assembled his Absolute Monster Gentlemen (his acclaimed all-star big band) in his home studio in the Bywater neighborhood of New Orleans, drew up a setlist of some of his most beloved songs–and some new favorites–and rolled tape. “We set out to capture that sound in the old-fashioned way: everybody in the room, playing together,” Cleary explains. The result is The Bywater Sessions, a musical tour-de-force that showcases the grit, funk and joy that’s packed concert halls from New Orleans to Tokyo and beyond. Co-produced by Cleary and John Porter (Roxy Music, The Smiths, Taj Mahal), it’s a stunning collection of performances that affirms Cleary’s place in the New Orleans musical vanguard. “There’s a lot to be said for the ‘lean and mean’ sound of a piano trio, stripped down to basics, simple and direct,” Cleary says. “But recently, I’ve been experimenting with different combinations; adding horns, guitar, percussion and even another keyboard […]

  • Creative Catalysts Exhibition Opening: The Lens of Literature

    Groundwork New Bedford 1213 Purchase Street, New Bedford, MA

    Creative Catalysts displays the amazing interplay of unique pairings and perspectives from artists working in a broad assortment of artistic mediums. Our theme this year – the lens of literature – asks artist pairs to choose a work of literature and shape work resulting from its inherent questions and search for answers. Through visual art, literary arts, music, multi-media, and mediums we haven’t predicted yet, the exhibition will use a lens of literature to “see” new perspectives and forge new collaborative work. Creative Catalysts presents how viewpoints and creative work transform when connected to a wide pool of inspiration. How does your work change through collaboration? Is that change obvious to others? How will you reflect on the experience when it is over? Join us for the 2026 exhibition opening on October 3rd from 4-6pm!
