The next cafe on Oct. 11 will begin with a “Spoken Words” set in which Carrie Cranston and Carla Ness will talk about the Cummington Historical Commission exhibit Courage in Cummington: Abolition. They will guide us to a deeper look at the abolitionist movement in Cummington!
Then John Walker Jr. and Shevaun Keogh Walker will perform an eclectic sampling of roots music that will primarily include folk and blues. They will perform some of their original tunes as well as some by their favorite musicians such as Bob Dylan, Simon and Garfunkel, Bonnie Raitt, and more!
The show is from 7:00 – 9:00 at the Village Church in beautiful downtown Cummington in the heart of the Cummington Cultural District.
The event is free, donations are appreciated, snacks are provided, BYO drinks. The show will take place in the intimate Vestry space. Masks are welcome, and encouraged. Once again brought to you by the friendly folks at the Village Church who believe music can be a powerful force for building community.
