DESCRIPTION:The Allen Center is pleased to host an artist talk with Lou Jones\, the photographer behind the exquisite exhibition\, The PanAFRICA Project. Hanging now through mid-August in The Allen Center’s main gallery the show aims to create a contemporary visual portrait of modern Africa\, using photography and advanced technologies to establish a repository of images for all 54 countries. This collection avoids preconceived Western notions of conflict\, pestilence\, and poverty\, instead documenting Africa’s highlights and inner workings as the most progressive continent of the 21st century. Get your free tickets for the opportunity to hear directly from the artist about his breathtaking work.

SUMMARY:The Black Feathers in Concert
DESCRIPTION:The Black Feathers\, a British duo described by Fatea Magazine as “a duo of undeniable talent\,” will play in concert on Thursday\, June 20\, at The Allen Center in West Newton (MA). The British couple Sian Chandler and Ray Hughes intertwine effortlessly to create a genre-defying sound combining elements of folk\, roots\, Americana\, and southern rock. Tickets and information can be found at newtonculture.org.\nChandler and Hughes first became aware of the magic between them while collaborating on several musical projects\, becoming The Black Feathers and life partners in 2012. Americana\, Folk\, and Acoustic Indie Rock sensibilities coexist comfortably in their musical world\, with Hughes’ guitar work buoying the kind of harmonies often only heard in family bands. Their music quickly draws the interest of listeners\, but it is the stage chemistry that will keep them riveted.\nThe Black Feathers’ debut EP Strangers We Meet was named one of “the best folk albums of 2014″ in The Telegraph and as the Sunday Mercury’s Number 1 Folk and Roots album of 2014. “Stunning harmonies that were so good it reminded me of seeing Gillian Welch and David Rawlings\,” wrote No Depression magazine\, and R2 Magazine proclaimed “their blend of English folk influences and Americana is a tasty concoction indeed.”\nHaving already built up a loyal following in the UK\, The Black Feathers have been spreading their wings across the US. They have performed at the Philadelphia Folk Festival and AmericanaFest and have also been awarded official showcases at the North East Regional and Far-West Folk Alliance conferences.
