十月 I 愿生命,充满可能性
One of the mixed blessings of being twenty and twenty-one and even twenty-three is the conviction that nothing like this, all evidence to the contrary notwithstanding, has ever happened to anyone before.
- Goodbye To All That, Essayist, Joan Didion

Edgar Allan Poe & Paul Lewis
日期:10月4日, 星期三, 7-8:30PM
地点:Lexington Depot
13 Depot Sq., Lexington, MA 02420
虽然Eliza Poe希望她的儿子长大后爱上波士顿,但在1809年1月19日出生的Poe,对他出生地的感情却是很复杂的。他写道: “波士顿人, 他们的酒店很糟糕。他们的南瓜派很好吃。他们作诗普通...但有了所有这些良好的品质,波士顿人就没有了灵魂..波士顿人很有教养 - 但显得他们非常迟钝。”
Paul Lewis是波士顿学院的英语名誉教授,Poe 研究协会的前任主席,波士顿文学展览的策展人,以及创造“Frankenfood”一词的神学家。作为Edgar Allan Poe基金会波士顿公司的BOD主席,Lewis与其他人一起在Poe出生的城市庆祝他的诞辰。2010年,在博伊斯顿街(Boylston Street)和查尔斯南街(Charles Street Sout)的交叉口设立了一个广场,专门纪念Poe,并于2014年在广场上安装了Poe的雕像.

Korean Cultural Society of Boston Presents
波士顿韩国文化协会
展览:造纸、播种和环境保护
韩国韩纸艺术家 Jongkuk Lee
艺术家讲座:10 月 5 日星期四 7PM
展览时间:10/7 - 10/22
互动研讨会:10 月 6 日星期五1:30PM
开幕会:10 月 7 日星期六 3-5PM
地点:LexArt
130 Waltham St, Lexington, MA
波士顿韩国文化协会 (KCSB) 将在 LexArt 展出著名自然艺术家李钟国 (Jongkuk Lee) 的作品,主题为 “造纸、播种、考虑环境”。他专门研究韩纸(韩国传统纸)的专家,他的材料源自大自然,甚至来自他自家种植的构树。他目前居住在韩国清州,担任 Mabuel Gallery 总监。
1990年代,李在清州附近的布拉特村定居,该村长期以来以制作韩纸的传统而闻名,但随着城市化和工业发展对韩纸的需求下降,村里只剩下很少人继续这一传统。李对制作韩纸的热情,以及他对创作过程作为自然与人类共生关系一部分的看法,一直是村里韩纸复兴的驱动力。
李促使我们思考如何将自然资源转化为艺术品和商品。他致力于通过研究竹子和芒草(常见的芦苇)等不同天然材料的品质和可用性来创造物品。这种艺术态度是他应对当前全球生态危机的方式。
本次展览将展示汉字卷轴、屏风以及各种材料的手工3D作品。还将与另外两位艺术家合作举办户外装置展。

Highlight of the Month
Pipa Meets Piano with Min Xiao-Fen and Lewis Porter
Date: Sunday, Oct 8, 3 - 4:30 pm
Location: Scottish Rite Masonic Museum and Library, 33 Marrett Rd. Lexington, MA 02421
Few artists have done more to both honor and reinvent the 2000-year history of the pipa than soloist, vocalist and composer Min Xiao-Fen. Classically trained in her native China, she served as a principal pipa soloist at Nanjing Traditional Music Orchestra and was an in- demand interpreter of traditional music before relocating to the United States and forging a new path for her instrument alongside many of the leading lights in modern jazz, free improvisation, experimental and contemporary classical music. NPR Weekend Edition lauded Ms. Min as “one of the world’s greatest virtuosos” and JazzTimes hailed her as “a pioneer in integrating her ancient instrument with modern jazz and improvised music.”
As a pianist, Lewis Porter has appeared on 37 albums with Terri Lyne Carrington, John Patitucci, Tia Fuller, Dave Liebman, Mark Ribot, James Brandon Lewis, and many others. A renowned researcher and historian, he is the author of “Playback with Lewis Porter,” a jazz essay series, of which Ted Gioia writes “Porter is the real deal—a genuine expert & trusted authority.”

Peter Yarrow & Noel Paul Stookey
Peter Yarrow & Noel Paul Stookey
Date: Sunday, Oct 1, 7 - 9pm
Location: Cary Memorial Hall
1605 Massachusetts Ave., Lexington, MA 02420
Peter Yarrow and Noel Paul Stookey carry on the tradition of the renowned folk music group Peter, Paul and Mary – a union that lasted 50 years. During their legendary career, the trio won five Grammys, produced 13 top 40 hits of which six ascended into the top 10, and earned eight gold and five platinum albums.
When Peter and Noel perform together, audiences comment that in many ways it feels as if Mary were still on the stage with them. The energy and enthusiasm for the music has not diminished, in fact it seems ever more impassioned, and frequently the audience steps in to sing Mary’s part–their voices strong, their hearts full. It’s community at its best and what folk music is all about – carrying it on.
Ticket prices range from $49 to $99 per person.

The Raven in the Frog Pond
The Raven in the Frog Pond: Edgar Allan Poe and the City of Boston with Paul Lewis
Date: Wednesday, Oct 4, 7 - 8:30pm
Location: Lexington Depot, 13 Depot Sq., Lexington, MA 02420
Although Eliza Poe hoped that her son would grow up loving Boston, Poe’s feelings about the place where he was born on January 19, 1809 were more complex. “The Bostonians,” he wrote, “are very well in their way. Their hotels are bad. Their pumpkin pies are delicious. Their poetry is not so good ... But with all these good qualities the Bostonians have no soul … The Bostonians are well-bred—as very dull persons very generally are.”
Paul Lewis is a professor of English emeritus at Boston College, a past president of the Poe Studies Association, the curator of exhibitions on literary Boston, and the neologist who coined the word “Frankenfood.” As the BOD chair of the Edgar Allan Poe Foundation of Boston, Inc., Lewis worked with others to celebrate Poe in the city of his birth by having a square at the intersection of Boylston Street and Charles Street South dedicated to Poe in 2010 and then installing a statue of Poe in it in 2014.
The registration fee is $15 per person.

Korean Cultural Society of Boston Presents
Korean Cultural Society of Boston Presents
Making Paper, Sowing Seeds, Considering Environment
by Jongkuk Lee, Korean Hanji Artist
Date: Artist Talk: Thursday, October 5, at 7pm
Exhibit: Making Paper, Sowing Seeds, Considering Environment – Sat., 10/7 - Sun., 10/22
Interactive Workshop: Friday, October 6, at 1:30pm
Opening Reception: Saturday, October 7, at 3-5pm
Location: LexArt
130 Waltham St, Lexington, MA
Korean Cultural Society of Boston (KCSB) will present Making Paper, Sowing Seeds, Considering Environment at LexArt. a special exhibit featuring the work of Jongkuk Lee, a renowned nature artist, who specializes in Hanji (Korean traditional paper). His materials are sourced from nature, even from his homegrown, paper mulberry trees. He is currently based in Cheongju, South Korea, where he serves as Director of Mabuel Gallery.
In the 1990s, Lee settled in Bulat Village near Cheongju, which was long famous for its tradition of making Hanji, but as the demand for Hanji declined due to urbanization and industrial development, few were left in the village to continue the tradition. Lee’s passion for making Hanji, as well as his perspectives on the creative process as part of nature’s symbiotic relationship with humans, has been a driving force for the revitalization of Hanji in the village.
Lee prompts us to reflect on how we can turn natural resources into artwork and commodities. He strives to create objects by examining the qualities and usability of different natural materials such as bamboo and silver grass (common reed). This approach to art is his way of responding to the current global ecological crisis.
This exhibit will showcase Hanji scrolls, screens, and handmade 3D works with various materials. There will also be an outdoor installation in collaboration with two other artists.

During this workshop, each attendee will make a fan and a simple bamboo brush to decorate the fan with.

Location: Cary Memorial Hall
1605 Mass Ave., Lexington, MA 02420
The Sixties Show is a cross-generational crowd pleaser and has been selling out every theater and performing arts center that the show plays at. The band is widely celebrated for recreating note-for-note re-creations of the hits, B-sides and deep album cuts from the greatest songs of the 1960s.
The show itself is a multimedia Broadway-type production; it’s powerfully dramatized by a combination of special effects, narration, archival audio and more. This larger-than-life trip back in time reminds the audience how uniquely inspirational and historically significant the music and events of the 1960’s were and continue to be.

Anxiety affects over one third of Americans. But anxiety at work, especially among leaders, has long been a taboo topic hidden in plain sight. Morra Aarons-Mele will discuss points from her new book The Anxious Achiever: Turn Your Biggest Fears into Your Leadership Superpower (Harvard Business Review Press, April 11, 2023), and explore ways to transform anxiety from a perceived weakness to a powerful strength.
Morra Aarons-Mele is the host of The Anxious Achiever, a top-10 management podcast that helps people rethink the relationship between their mental health and their leadership. In 2010, Morra founded Women Online (an award-winning digital-consulting firm) and The Mission List (an influencer marketing company pursuing social change). She helped Hillary Clinton log on for her first internet chat and has launched digital campaigns for President Obama, Malala Yousafzai, the United Nations, the CDC, and many other leading figures and organizations.
The registration fee is $15.
