Adrienne Sloane, a contemporary artist, is making waves in the art world by blending politics with her craft. By reimagining and liberating fiber art from its conventional forms, Sloane is challenging the status quo and transforming a traditionally overlooked and feminine art form into a powerful tool for social justice. In her upcoming presentation, titled "Needling the Establishment: The Intersection of Fiber Art & Politics," Sloane will delve into her own journey of using knitting, quilting, and other textile forms to comment on the current political climate.

Through her artwork, Sloane visually addresses the frayed and unraveled aspects of society, encouraging thoughtful dialogue about critical questions in these challenging times. Her thought-provoking pieces aim to shed light on American fissures using mediums of comfort and bonding, resulting in a profoundly disquieting cultural commentary. Renowned art critic Cate McQuaid of the Boston Globe has praised Sloane's work, describing her cultural commentary as razor-sharp.

If you're interested in witnessing the convergence of fiber art and politics, mark your calendar for September 14, 2023. The event, hosted by the Lexington Historical Society at 13 Depot Square, Lexington, MA 02420, will open its doors at 6:30 PM. Tickets are priced at $10 for members and $15 for non-members, offering an opportunity to experience Sloane's captivating creations firsthand. Join us for an evening that promises to challenge perspectives and ignite important conversations.

The experience was very good. The tour guide kept talking for an hour and entertained everyone. You can experience all the city views on land and water. The moment you got into the water, everyone was recording. When you met other duck boats during the journey, everyone would imitate the duck&#39;s call to greet each other

Freedom Trail

西行阿里

The terminal of the Freedom Trail
This granite monument in Charlestown, Boston, is said to be one of the earliest monuments in the United States, used to commemorate the Battle of Bunker Hill between the British Army and the North American Colonial Militia (OK, I admit that I checked it recently
)
Now this is the terminal of Boston&#39;s Freedom Trail. If the weather is good, you can walk all the way from Boston Park~
The only way to get to the top of the monument is to climb the stairs
There are a total of 294 steps, and numbers are marked every few steps, so that people who are panting and climbing the stairs can have a number in mind

There is actually only a small space on the top of the monument, but looking out through the small windows on all four sides, I immediately feel that climbing the stairs is worth it~
