SUMMARY:October Readings in Newton by Canada's first indigenous Poet Laureate
DESCRIPTION:Canadian Poet Laureate Louise Bernice Halfe (aka “Sky Dancer”) will be making two appearances in Newton as part of the week-long celebrations of Indigenous Peoples Day. Invited by the Newton-based Poets’ Theatre in collaboration with the Canadian Consulate\, Sky Dancer will appear at the third annual Indigenous Newtonians event on Monday October 9 at 4pm at the Albemarle Field. She will also have a reading and discussion at the Newton Free Library’s Druker Auditorium on Friday October 13 at 3pm. As well as making appearances at Simmons and Tufts Universities\, she will also be featured at a gala event at the Museum of Science on Wednesday October 11 at 7pm. (This event is free but requires registration at MOS.org). As a child Ms. Halfe was taken away from her family by the Canadian government and placed in a series of Catholic-run “Residential Schools\,” where indigenous children suffered not just sexual and physical abuse\, but also cultural abuse\, being forbidden to speak their native languages\, and essentially being taught that indigenous life was worthless in modern Canada. Her traumatic ordeal lasted seven years\, and is a major influence on her poetry. For more information contact david.gullette@simmons.edu.

SUMMARY:Newton Senior Center Concert Series: Archie Richards on Piano
DESCRIPTION:Archie Richards will perform a one-hour classical piano concert featuring numerous works by Frederic Chopin\, including the Scherzo in C# Minor\, which Artur Rubinstein played many times. Archie will also play a few pieces by Sergei Rachmaninoff and Franz Liszt. \nArchie started playing the piano as a child but didn’t find a good teacher until he was 32. That was Kyriena Siloti\, with whom he studied at the Longy School in Cambridge\, Mass. Then in her 80s\, Kyriena was the daughter and assistant of Alexander Siloti. He\, in turn\, was widely considered the best of the students of Franz Liszt and was world renown in the early 20th Century. While Archie was with Kyriena\, his performance of a major Beethoven sonata was played on WCRB-AM Radio in Boston on a Sunday morning. \nThis show\, which will take place in Newton Free Library’s Druker Auditorium\, is generously sponsored by the Jayne Colino Fund of the Senior Citizens Fund of Newton\, Inc. \nRSVP requested. Please call or stop by the Front Desk at 20 Hartford Street: 617-796-1675. Or send your name\, telephone number\, and email address to our Receptionists at seniorprograms@newtonma.gov
