“Spaces Places Traces” presents a thematic selection of artworks that engage artists’ interactions with specific locations and natural phenomena. Celebrating careful observation and reverie of one’s surroundings in concert with metaphorical or allegorical parallels, this show includes drawing, painting, photography, video, sculpture, ceramics and mixed media. The artworks on view consider space and place as a point of departure to explore concepts of time, relationships between materiality and ecology, personal narratives, environmental calls to action, and our connections to the world and each other. Participating artists include: Patricia M. Brace, Jackie Brown, Joshua DeMello, Bethany Engstrom, Pia Paulina Guilmoth, Hilary Irons, Peter Precourt, Julie Poitras Santos, Susan L. Smith and John Umphlett. Emery Community Art Center Gallery is open Monday-Saturday, 12pm-7pm.

ArtsFarmington presents “Ain’t I a Woman!”
2026-03-11 19:00 - 21:00 (America/New_York)
On Tuesday, March 11, at 7 p.m. in the UMF Emery Community Arts Center, ArtsFarmington is pleased to present: Ain’t I a Woman! A celebration of the life and times of four powerful African American women: renowned novelist and anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston, ex-slave and fiery abolitionist Sojourner Truth, exuberant folk artist Clementine Hunter, and fervent civil rights worker Fannie Lou Hamer.
The musical score is drawn from the heartfelt spirituals and blues of the Deep South, the urban vitality of the Jazz Age, and contemporary concert music by African Americans. Ain’t I a Woman! is a joyful exploration of the trials and triumphs of four passionate and accomplished women.
The Core Ensemble is represented by Mikael Darmanie on piano and the African American Women are played by Tiffany Terrell. Ms. Terrell was the actress who portrayed three other notable African American women in “Unbought” with the Core Ensemble here last year. This year’s program takes its title from an expression by Sojourner Truth.
