SUMMARY:Christmas at the Castle
DESCRIPTION:Free Admission AT Christmas at the Castle 2024 to Honor North Kingstown’s 350 Anniversary \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis year the Christmas at the Smith’s Castle Committee is collaborating with the 350th Committee and HistWick to celebrate the anniversary year of the founding of Kings Towne by the Colonial government. In commemoration of that anniversary\, admission to the event will be free to the public. \n\n\n\nThe Castle has been a partner in history with North Kingstown from the very beginning of the Colony. In 1674\, Kings Towne contained much of the old “Narragansett Country\,” including large parcels of land owned by the Smith family and its descendants\, the Updikes. After King Philip’s War\, Richard Smith’s grandson\, Lodowick Updike\, laid out the Village of Wickford adjacent to Cocumscussoc and promoted the sale of house plots there. This year displays at the event will feature more information relating to North Kingstown’s history. \n\n\n\nChristmas at the Castle 2024 (December 7th and 8th\, 12-4 pm) continues a holiday tradition of over 50 years. With natural decorations\, colonial attire\, entertainment\, and special activities\, the Castle provides an enjoyable\, family-centered pre-holiday experience of colonial life. \n\n\n\nHourly entertainment includes: Wheeler School Handbell Ringers; Brown University Madrigal Singers; Mark Burnham (harpsichord/keyboard) and Rebecca Silliman (flute); Storytime with Miss Julia (for the younger set); Root Cellar (old time music); Ladies of the Greene (colonial fashion show); Tim Cranston (NK historian); John Rufo (mandolin) and Mark Armstrong (classical guitar).  This entertainment is made possible by a generous grant from the North Kingstown Arts Council and a donation from Southeast New England (SENE) Film\, Music\, and Arts. Further information about our entertainers and a schedule of their appearances is available on our website. \n\n\n\nThe children will be able to enjoy crafts\, gingerbread cookie decorating\, colonial games (some outdoors\, weather permitting)\, colonial crafts demonstrations\, hand-painting by Cynthia\, a scavenger hunt\, and Father Christmas. For our Christmas shoppers\, there is a Christmas Bazaar including handmade crafts and gently used Christmas items\, a bake sale\, a raffle of themed gift baskets\, and vendors. \n\n\n\nSmith’s Castle\, a National Historical Site\, is located at 55 Richard Smith Drive\, North Kingstown. Watch our website at https://www.smithscastle.org/events  for updates\, further information\, and the entertainment schedule. \n\n\n\nKEY INFORMATION: \n\n\n\nEVENT:          Christmas at the Castle 2024: It Started Here: Honoring North Kingstown’s 350th Anniversary \n\n\n\nWHEN:           December 7th & 8th\, 2024; Noon-4 pm \n\n\n\nWHERE:         Smith’s Castle\, 55 Richard Smith Drive\, North Kingstown\, RI  02852 \n\n\n\nWHAT:            Pre-holiday event offering entertainment and activities with a colonial flavor for adults and children. \n\n\n\nCOST:             FREE Admission.

Read about her many accomplishments below and join us in honoring her at the Brass Attack Concert.  \n\n\n\nWho was Sally Meland\, the 2023 recipient of the Skög Award?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPrimarily\, she was a terrific person who was determined to get the job done! \n\n\n\n\n1985 ~ She created the\, now annual\, Festival of Lights in Wickford in to raise money for the NKHS Concert Choir trip to a music competition in Montreal.\n\n\n\n1986-1990 ~ She organized Sunday Musicales at the NK Library. Elizabeth Donovan continued the program.\n\n\n\n1995 ~ She created the Tuesday Night Concert series. They were originally held behind Earnshaws! She worked hard to have a wide variety of music from a Swedish Acapella group\, Irish Jigs\, blue grass and oldies. And\, she started the tradition of Brass Attack playing every year!\n\n\n\n\nThose were the big things\, but Sally was also behind many of the little things that make the arts scene in NK as rich as it is today. Sally moved to Castle Rock\, Colorado in 2005. She passed in August\, 2022. \n\n\n\nThe NK Arts Council along with the Blue Bus Foundation\, the Meland Family\, personal donations\, and proceeds from a 50-50 raffle have purchased a bench that will be located near the bandstand at the beach. The plaque will read: “Sally Meland\, A Force Behind NK Arts & Rec.” \n\n\n\nPlease join us in honoring her at the Brass Attack Concert! \n\n\n\nSummer Concert Series Presented by:

SUMMARY:World Music Festival at Willett
DESCRIPTION:Three performances featuring music from other cultures and the history of their instruments. \n\n\n\nAUGUST 22-24-26MONDAY\, WEDNESDAY AND FRIDAY4PMWILLETT FREE LIBRARY BACKYARD45 Ferry Rd\, Saunderstown\, RI 02874\n\n\n\n*If there is inclement weather\, we have decided not to have a rain date but to move indoors. Due to space limitations\, we will then limit attendance to the first 25 people who have registered. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMonday\, August 22\, 4PMAaron Cote\, Steel Pan Drummer \n\n\n\nThis presentation will feature an inside look at the steel pan\, a brief timeline of cultural significance and historical moments in the development of this rather young instrument\, discussion of steel pan ensembles\, types of repertoire including a demonstration of classic\, original\, and more “out-of-the-box” ideas applied to steel pan. A question & answer time will be included\, if time permits\, several audience members may be selected for a hands-on steel pan experience. \n\n\n\nAfter graduating from Butler University and The University of Illinois (MM)\, Aaron Abrahamson Cote’s music education continues with firsthand performance experience on a regional and even international level. His background in symphonic percussion paved the way for an intense practice routine that acted as the backbone for his Steel Pan career. After learning the standard Caribbean repertoire\, Cote’s band\, Panoramic View\, backed him in completing his quest to publish a series of original tunes for steel pan. Over 200 compositions later\, this year Cote plans to release his 7th collection of sheet music and backing tracks for steel pan. Many of Cote’s original pieces are available for free streaming on online media platforms. With performance credits ranging from Bobby McFerrin to The Skatalites\, to members of Rancid and Wilco\, Cote is constantly looking to expand his network and collaboratively create anart form that bridges the gap between cultures. Among others\, Cote has worked remotely on recording projects with Sō Percussion\, international reggae star Dr. Ring Ding\, and Pan Rocks! featuring Stephen Perkins of Jane’s Addiction. Despite his heavy background as a freelance artist and recurring member of several bands\, Cote’s consistently performs across the Northeast region with Panoramic View and The Island Time Steel Band. While his career has taken him world-wide\, Mr. Cote and his wife Caryn are constantly drawn back to the comfort of their beautiful home state of Rhode Island. Book Aaron through PanoramicViewBand.com. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWednesday\, August 24\, 4PM  \n\n\n\nThe Guitar Across the Sands of TimeJohn Savage\, GuitaristIn this diverse and engaging presentation\, Guitarist John Savage traces the evolution of themodern guitar; from the deserts of Arabia\, through the African Continent\, into Spain\, and over the ocean to the Americas.
