November 19, 2024: Reframed

We are re-arranging the way we look at the world: through the eyes of youth, the tales of history, and the roots that get put down. We head to Smith College, where a class of 12 from all five of the colleges in the consortium have contributed to the exhibit Signs of solastalgia, which deals with each of the artist’s interaction with climate grief. We speak with a trio of the student contributors about the experience and their work that you can see through Nov. 22nd. It’s in the stories from here that are still being uncovered. Julian Saporiti a.k.a No-no boy joins us before he takes the stage at the Drake this evening, and explore some of the Asian diasporic American tales that have found their way into his music and beyond. And we’ll get a tiny little jump on the holiday season by heading to Ashfield as it’s almost time to get a tree, should you be one of those tannenbaum needing houses.  We chat with Seth Cranston of Cranston’s Tree Farm as they get ready to open their fields for the cutting and more this weekend.
