At MCLA’s Design Lab, 49 Main Street, North Adams. Doors at 7. $5 or more if you feel like donating.
Art and poetry from local women, too! March is Women’s History Month.
GRNDMS: Beautiful, crunchy and amazing music from Suzy Jivotovski and Catherine DeGennaro. “Entwining delicate folk with garage pop, the everyday with the mystic, the two fuse into a strange and beautiful whole,” says Aquarium Drunkard.

Francesca Shanks: Francesca and Joe Aidonidis are equal band partners who employ a baritone ukulele, multiple synths, a floor tom and sleigh bells. “Her lyrics are witty, smart and honest, the melodic undertones are simple but the instrumental layering is complex,” says Music For Lunch.

Queen of Bees: Jess Sweeney talks bee facts and uses a ukulele and banjolele to make songs that creep up on you and give you a lil’ hug.https://barncatboys.bandcamp.com/album/the-barrington-parlor-project
