SUMMARY:“Driven By Abstraction” - Monday Art Collective Closes Summer Exhibition at the Old Schwamb Mill
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, August 22\, from 2:00–3:30 PM\, visitors are invited to enjoy one last opportunity to experience this vibrant exhibition of contemporary art in the Mill’s historic second-floor galleries. Showcasing painting\, drawing\, printmaking\, collage\, and mixed media\, Driven by Abstraction highlights the creativity and diverse artistic voices of the Monday Art Collective\, a group of Boston-area artists brought together through a shared commitment to experimentation\, collaboration\, and mutual support. \nThe Monday Art Collective is a group of dedicated visual artists\, primarily based in the Boston area\, who have met weekly for the past four years to create art\, exchange ideas\, and support one another’s artistic growth. Originally brought together through workshops led by Cambridge artist Alexandra Sheldon\, the group continued meeting virtually during the COVID-19 pandemic after studio classes could no longer be held in person. What began as a way to combat artistic isolation soon evolved into a lasting creative community. \nOver time\, the Collective’s artistic practices have expanded beyond the collage work that initially connected many of its members. Today\, the group explores a wide range of media\, including painting\, drawing\, printmaking\, and mixed media. The exhibition at the Old Schwamb Mill reflects this diversity of approach while highlighting the shared spirit of experimentation\, collaboration\, and encouragement that defines the Collective. \nVisitors to the exhibition will encounter a thoughtful and varied collection of contemporary works created by eight women artists whose practices continue to evolve through dialogue\, friendship\, and mutual inspiration. \nMill Hours: Tuesday and Saturday\, 10 am-4 pm. Open for guided tours of our living history museum; viewing of the exhibition in our second-floor galleries; and sales of our custom-made\, museum quality\, oval and circular picture and mirror frames. Admission is free\, with a suggested donation of $5. \nThe Old Schwamb Mill\,  \n17 Mill Lane\, Arlington\, MA\, 02476 \n781-643-0554 \nwww.oldschwambmill.org

SUMMARY:The Road Where It Happened: Revolution Comes to Menotomy
DESCRIPTION:How did prehistoric geological forces create the landscape of Menotomy? Did the narrow corridor of Battle Road between steep hillsides at the Foot of the Rocks influence the outcome of the American Revolution? Who were the people of Menotomy who played a role on that critical day of April 19\, 1775? \nThese are some of the questions explored in this exhibit. \nBattle Road was the route traversed by some 2\,000 British regulars marching to Concord and back again on April 19\, 1775\, sparking the start of the American Revolution. More than 3\,000 colonists from Menotomy and nearby towns also gathered along the road to fight for independence from British attempts to impose greater control over the colonies. \nKnown today as Massachusetts Avenue\, the road to revolution travels through Cambridge\, Arlington (Menotomy)\, and Lexington on the way to Concord. The region’s Semiquincentennial (250th) commemoration of the initial battles in 1775 seeks to re-examine that history and the particular role that the people and the landscape of Menotomy played in the founding of America. \nDATE: Tuesdays & Saturdays through May 31st \nTIME: 10 AM – 4 PM\nThe last tour of the day is available at 3 pm. \nLOCATION: Old Schwamb Mill\, 17 Mill Lane\, Arlington\, MA 02476 \nThis program is offered by the Old Schwamb Mill as part of the Hidden Treasures Festival of Nature\, Culture & History\, an annual month-long celebration showcasing events and activities hosted by local partners celebrating the unique places\, objects\, and stories of the Freedom’s Way National Heritage Area.
