Discovering New England Stone Walls with Kevin Gardner
Why are we so fascinated with stone walls? Kevin Gardner of Hopkinton, author of The Granite Kiss, explains how and why New England came to acquire its thousands of miles of stone walls, the way in which they and other dry stone structures were built, how their styles emerged and changed over time and their significance to the famous New England landscape. Along the way, Kevin occupies himself building a miniature wall or walls on a tabletop, using tiny stones from a five-gallon bucket.

Enjoy “An Evening of Frost – A one-man performance” about the life and work of Robert Frost by actor Stephen Collins.

As part of the performance, an open discussion of the following poems will include: ‘A Tuft of Flowers’, ‘Mending Wall’, ‘Birches’, ‘After Apple Picking’, ‘Acquainted with the Night’, ‘Desert Places.’
Mr. Collins hopes our audience will come having read these poems, willing to discuss them. The performance closes with a dramatic reading of Frost’s masterful use of blank verse in the hauntingly memorable ‘The Death of the Hired Man.’
