SUMMARY:Acton COA: Holiday Music Presentation with Music Historian John Clark
DESCRIPTION:Get into the spirit of the season with this presentation featuring classic holiday songs from the 50s and 60s! You’ll hear the stories behind It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas by Broadway composer Meredith Willson (of Music Man fame) and country star Willie Nelson’s Pretty Paper. Did you know that songwriter Johnny Marks had written three big hits during these years? Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree (Brenda Lee)\, A Holly Jolly Christmas (Burl Ives) and Run Rudolph Run (Chuck Berry)? And in the 1950s there were novelty songs galore like The Chipmunk Song\, I’m Getting’ Nuttin’ for Christmas and I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus (which was used for a Saks Fifth Avenue advertising campaign). You’ll also see performance clips for This Time of the Year (Brook Benton)\, There’s No Place Like Home for the Holidays (Perry Como)\, The Most Wonderful Time of the Year (Andy Williams) and Feliz Navidad (Jose Feliciano). \nOpen to out-of-towners 60+ for $5

SUMMARY:Fair Trade Craft Sale
DESCRIPTION:Beautiful\, Unique\, Affordable\, Fair Trade Handmade Crafts on Sale \nWhy shop at this sale? \nThe purchase of these Fair Trade items benefit the artisans who made them – Mayan Hands collaborates with 15 artisan groups in the rural Guatemalan highlands\, representing about 200 skilled craftswomen; UPAVIM’s member cooperative\, located in a “Red Zone” of Guatemala City plagued by gang and violence\, is comprised of more than 70 women working as seamstresses and making handicrafts. \nProceeds from the sale benefit a scholarship fund for students in the Church of the Good Shepherd sister community of El Ocotillo\, a small village in the mountains of El Salvador – the sale does not benefit the church.  These Fair Trade items are affordable as they haven’t yet been subject to higher tariffs that are likely to be imposed due to changes to the CAFTA-DR regulations.  The lovely handmade creations reflect ancestral techniques\, artisan craftswomanship\, and heirloom quality in new\, updated designs for the modern market. Come shop for exquisite: \nBaskets\, Ornaments\, Wooden crafts\, Ceramics\, Jewelry\, Textiles\, Scarves\, Bags\, Purses\, Children’s novelties \nAnd much more …
