An Evening of Fado with Maria Emília and Helder Moutinho

Durgin Hall at UMass Lowell @ 35 Wilder St, Lowell, MA 01854, USA, Lowell, Massachusetts, 01854, United States

Presented by The Saab Center for Portuguese Studies Helder Moutinho is a fadista of startling depth and invention with a long family lineage devoted to fado. Helder is a poet whose albums are multi-faceted creations, each built around a unifying concept: they evoke contemporary experiences of love and loss, framed by the ancient alleyways and shadows of Old Lisbon. Maria Emília moved from Brazil to Portugal at a young age and began singing fado early; she has been performing for 18 years. Perhaps no other singer of her generation combines raw magnetism, complete freedom, and total commitment to traditional fado to such devastating effect.

Double Vision: Art for Eyes Opening

CNCPT6 103 Market St, Lowell, MA

Join us at CNCPT 6 in Lowell, MA as we host a double chance to buy art from your favorite artists! We would like to invite you to participate in our gallery fundraiser "Double Vision Art Exhibition" set for an opening reception Saturday June 3, 2023 from 12-5 PM. This event is free and open to the public. Raffles, Prizes, Art, Drinks, Food, Kid Zone ready to paint eyes on the town for a fun family friendly afternoon for a great cause. We've curated a riveting gallery that raises awareness about childhood eye cancer and portions directly fund local eye cancer patients prosthetic eyes. Two cohesive pieces will be shown side by side both incorporating eyes. These are to be encouraged to be sold together but can be sold separately. We need your expression to “see” an artistic and inclusive world (with or without sight). We want to showcase that if eyes are windows to the soul then all eyes are an important story to tell, regardless if they are real or prosthetic (most children with retinoblastoma lose one or both eyes to cancer). All paintings will have at least one eye. But with two eyes, third eye, or hundreds of eyes...the choice is yours to choose what you see when your eyes are closed and we want your vision to be seen.
