SUMMARY:"Seasons"\, Paintings by Kelly Anderson
DESCRIPTION:Winter Tree Shadow by Kelly Anderson\nStop in to see the work of the featured artist of the month\, Kelly Anderson\, in the cafe gallery during regular business hours: Tuesday-Saturday 10-5\, Wednesday 10-6. \n**Please join us for a meet the artist reception on Saturday\, April 2nd\, 2-4 p.m.** \nAbout the artist:  \nKelly is a self-taught painter working in oil and more recently\, watercolor. Raised in Harpswell Maine and now enjoying Webster Lake\, she is drawn to painting rocky coastlines\, the beauty of trees\, birds and all things natural and meditative lake water. Kelly is inspired by her favorite painters Andrew Wyeth and Winslow Homer \nKelly is grateful for developing an artist’s eye for observation\, now seeing beauty in things that previously lacked significance. Gratitude also extends to what she has learned from painting that has impacted her life in general: gaining patience to wait for the canvas to dry when it would be satisfying to continue painting\, not being frugal with paint and materials in order to create a desired effect the first time\, and having confidence that the ugly parts of the painting process in the beginning will bring forth the desired feeling. \nInspired by Wyeth’s Teel’s Island by Kelly Anderson\nThe theme of Kelly’s show is Seasons. It captures many of her inspirations. Each of the naturally stained poplar floating frames were made Kelly’s husband\, Matt.

SUMMARY:Earthsongs Book Release Party
DESCRIPTION:“Earthsongs” illustrations by Ferol Smith\n\nJoin us as we celebrate Earth Day with “Earthsongs”\, a new book of poetry & art featuring a collaboration between friends Robert Eugene Perry & Ferol Smith.\n \nSigned copies will be available for purchase that day.\n \nPoet Statement:\nThis collaboration with my artist friend Ferol was absolutely a labor of love. In discussing the sketches that would accompany the poems\, she intuitively grasped the meaning of the words and translated them into sublime images. She needed very little direction from me.\nIt was almost as if the synchronicity of the project was palpable to both of us. Her sketches added a new dimension to my own perception of my poems. This has been one of the most rewarding artistic experiences of my life.\n \n \nArtist Statement:\nWhen Bob first approached me about this project\, I was intrigued. Normally\, my art requires creatively rendering a visual scene. For this project\, it would involve interpreting the written word.\nAt first\, it was a challenge to read a poem and conceptualize a complementary nature scene. However\, once I started to really grasp the essence of his words\, the process became much easier. His poems inspired me to reach within\, and as a result I gained a deeper appreciation and understanding of his work.

SUMMARY:May Art Exhibit-Is There Beauty Within Tragedy? by Eren Torres
DESCRIPTION:Stop in during the month of May to view drawings and mixed media artwork by Eren Torres in the cafe gallery during regular business hours: Tuesday-Saturday 10-5\, Wednesday 10-6. \nA meet and greet with the artist will take place on Saturday\, May 14th\, 2-4 p.m. Call 508-949-6232 for more information. \nThis is a portfolio on tragedy. We all know the meaning of that word and what emotions come with it. But what if there was some unforeseen side to it? What if we took tragedy and turned it into beauty. Can tragedy be beautiful? Can something as dark and cold as tragedy be seen as something beautiful? And how\, just how\, can we perceive that?   \n  \n \n  \nAbout the Artist: \nSeventeen-year-old upcoming artist Eren Torres takes inspiration from things most people would see as “bad” “dark” and “horrific” and sees them in a positive and fulfilling way\, taking away the negative attributes of the world and forcing others to see them in a different way. As a proud member of the LGBT community and born into a Hispanic household\, Eren sought to make change with their art. Hoping it can become a tool for the world to see things in common\, as well as each other\, to create a conjoined and hopeful community.

SUMMARY:Double Mystery Author Event
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a double author event featuring Leslie Wheeler and Sharon Healy-Yang. \nFor more information\, call 508-949-6232 or email deb@bookloversgourmet.com.\nThe event is free and signed copies of books will be available for purchase.\n \nAn award-winning author of books about American history and biographies\, Leslie Wheeler launched her Berkshire Hilltown Mysteries with Rattlesnake Hill. With Shuntoll Hill\, the latest in the series\, Boston library curator Kathryn Stinson returns to the Berkshires\, hoping to rebuild her romance with Earl Barker\, but ends up battling a New York developer\, determined to turn the property she’s been renting into an upscale development. Kathryn’s search for \nanswers leads her to other questions about the developer’s connection to a friend of hers who fled New York years ago for mysterious reasons. The information she uncovers puts her in grave danger.\n \nSharon Healy-Yang is an aficionado of 1940s cinematic and written mysteries. A professor emerita at Worcester State University in Massachusetts\, where she was known for her 1940s \nhats\, she had the great fortune to share her love of literature and film with her students in her courses. Now retired\, she’s excited to recapture for readers the smart-talking heroines\, suspense\, adventure\, and sharp wit of 1940s films in her Jessica Minton Mystery series: Bait and Switch\, Letter from a Dead Man\, and Always Play the Dark Horse. Once again diving into the perspective of Jessica Minton\, Always Play the Dark Horse shows a gradual but significant transformation in this main character; Healy-Yang describes the newly engaged Jessica Minton in the third book of the Jessica Minton Mystery series as someone who has transformed from the strong woman who felt she had to prove herself to the strong woman who is confident in having proved herself.\n

SUMMARY:Unlike Any Other: A Novel about Bathsheba Spooner by Ed Londergan
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT WAS POSTPONED UNTIL A LATER DATE. STAY TUNED FOR MORE DETAILS. \nAuthor talk & signing with Ed Londergan about The Story of An 18th Century Woman from A Prominent New England Family Who Went from A Life of Privilege to The Gallows. \nSigned copies will be available for purchase. \nBathsheba Spooner was the daughter of Timothy Ruggles\, a general in the French and Indian War\, president of the Stamp Act Congress\, Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas\, and a leading loyalist in Massachusetts during the Revolutionary War; the epitome of upper class. \nLike her father\, Bathsheba was smart\, strong-willed\, and a staunch British loyalist. Forced to marry a man she did not love\, Bathsheba withstood her husband’s abuse for years until a young Continental soldier entered her life. But when this well-heeled mother of three small children discovered she was pregnant with the soldier’s child\, her thoughts quickly turned to murder. \nBased on a true story\, the events that follow Bathsheba’s life\, her decisions\, and her ultimate demise will show readers that Bathsheba Spooner was\, in fact\, Unlike Any Other . . . \nEd Londergan is the author of the award-winning books The Devils’ Elbow and The Long Journey Home. Having researched American history for many years\, he is a frequent speaker with a focus on colonial Massachusetts. A graduate of Holy Cross\, he lives in Warren\, Massachusetts.

SUMMARY:Comedy Nite!
DESCRIPTION:Join in the fun for our premier Comedy Nite featuring four great\, local comics! \nTickets are just $15. Limited seating. Don’t wait!! Get yours HERE or stop in the store. \nCathy Coleman is a young badass comic from Boston. Actually\, she’s a middle aged badass comic from right here in Webster. She’s performed at Boston Comedy Chicks\, Improv Boston\, and the Comedy Studio as well as bars and comedy clubs all over New England and once in a library. She’s opened for headliners\, Julie Goldman and Kristen Becker. Her students say she is a cross between Paula Poundstone and Ellen Degeneres. Her mother says she is a cross between difficult and challenging. She says she is a cross between witty and worrisome. \n  \n  \n \n  \nPatty Gould\, affectionately known as FPG because of her challenged time management skills\, has been performing stand up for the past 10 years. She can be found on any given weekend telling her glass half filled tales navigating life as FPG. She has shared stages with all of The Boston Comedy veterans and legends throughout New England and is always the hometown favorite. Her first bookstore appearance\, she is very excited to be a part of this show.  \n  \n  \nNick Ortolani is the first guy to introduce himself at a party\, and also the first to leave. His comedy combines a commanding stage presence with a literary sensibility to create something unique. Employing a borderline-moral outrage at the daily atrocities of modern life\, big and small\, Nick leaves no stone unturned. A tightly wound ball of neurosis and charisma\, Nick’s stage presence betrays a very-real guy with a razor sharp wit and a heart of gold. His physical and verbal acrobatics have appeared in the Boston Comedy Festival (semi-finalist\, 2017\, 2018); The Women In Comedy Festival (2015\, 2017\, 2019); The Black Friday Comedy Marathon (2015); and the Rogue Island Comedy Festival (2017). He appears regularly at clubs around Boston\, and has opened for national headliners. A regular at the Comedy Studio in Cambridge MA\, Nick was selected as Comic In Residence for the club’s 20th anniversary. In addition to appearing on stage\, Nick’s writing has been featured in The Hard Times\, Funny Or Die\, and on the Nerdist podcast network. He currently resides in Boston and is not as much of a cat person as you might think. \n \n  \nLaura Jean Fay is a writer and teacher who grew up in and around Boston.  After being laid off in 2020\, she started doing stand-up last year in Central Mass. Since then she has performed at several venues in and around Worcester. Laura Jean moved to Webster in 2019  where she stayed to ride out the Covid-19 crisis. When asked what got her through the pandemic she replies “Black market haircuts and lots of Cherry Garcia”.

SUMMARY:Beyond Blooms\, Textures in our Garden-Photography Exhibit by Don McCallister
DESCRIPTION:Textures in the Garden by Don McCallister\nThe featured art show of July is photography by Don McCallister\, on display and for sale July 5th-30th in the cafe gallery.\n \nA reception to meet the artist will take place on Saturday\, July 23rd from 1-3 p.m.  \nViewing hours for the public are Tuesday-Saturday 10-5\, Wednesday 10-6.  \nFor more information call 508-949-6232 or email deb@bookloversgourmet.com \n  \n  \nArtist’s statement: \nGardens can be beautiful with flowers of every color and hue. But when the flowers are finished blooming\, all you have left in boring green foliage. Right? Well\, not necessarily. There can be interesting subjects in the garden all year long. All you need to do is look beyond the blooms and you’ll discover a never ending variety of shapes and textures. (And having a talented gardener\, such as my wife\, to design the gardens helps.) I hope this collection will inspire its viewers to look for unexpected beauty in our yards and in the natural world. \n

SUMMARY:Winners from Writers of the Future #38 Virtual Event
DESCRIPTION:  \nJoin us for a fun\, free virtual event featuring five winners of this year’s Writers of the Future Vol. 38\, the best new writers & illustrators in the sci-fi/fantasy genre as chosen by top pros in the field including Frank Herbert\, Kevin J. Anderson & Diane Dillon! Hear them read\, talk about their inspiration\, background and road to success. \nOrder the book at a 10% discount HERE or pick up in store. \nRegister in advance for this meeting:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcscOGqqDsiHNVmV04VcIYjAf4oE_uvoSyJ \n \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.\n  \n  \nHere’s a rundown of our special guests: \n \nMike Jack Stoumbos is a spec-fic author\, disguised as a believably normal teacher\, living with his wife and their parrot. Mike grew up with three brothers and over forty first cousins\, who he enlisted as test audiences (and participants) for his imagined adventures\, often reenacted with cardboard props or Star Wars action figures. His love of storytelling brought him to the stage as a musical theater actor\, the role-playing table as a game master\, and a career trajectory to teach English and theater. In the summer of 2019\, however\, Mike shifted his writing passion into a priority\, and once again became a student: attending workshops\, practicing daily\, and braving the story submission gauntlet. Mike’s work has since appeared in several collections\, including his first pro sale in Galactic Stew and a publication alongside a personal hero in Hold Your Fire: Stories Celebrating the Creative Spark. Shortly after he was named a Writers of the Future winner\, Mike’s space-opera series\, This Fine Crew\, was picked up by Chris Kennedy Publishing\, for many continuing adventures. The idea for “The Squid Is My Brother” emerged as a curiosity: how to take something from cosmic horror and make it as endearing as a family member. Even more importantly\, Mike wrote this story shortly after the schools had closed due to COVID in 2020 as a young student’s first-person account of transferring into a bizarre new environment\, fearing the unknown\, and learning about humanity. \nRebecca E. Treasure grew up reading science fiction and fantasy in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. After grad school and two children\, she began writing fiction. Rebecca has lived many places\, including the Gulf Coast of Mississippi and Tokyo\, Japan. She currently resides in Texas Hill Country with her husband\, where she juggles two children\, two corgis\, a violin studio\, and writing. She only drops the children occasionally. Rebecca discovered Writers of the Future shortly after she began writing fiction. She has entered every quarter since\, making lifelong friends as a result. Rebecca’s short fiction has been published by or is forthcoming from WordFire Press\, Air and Nothingness Press\, Flame Tree Publishing\, The Dread Machine\, and others. She is an associate editor at Apex Book Company and Magazine. “Tsuu\, Tsuu\, Kasva Suuremasse” came about\, as many of Rebecca’s stories have\, from a synthesis of ideas. Research for her sixth novel\, a historical fantasy about Napoleonic magic users\, combined with a fascination with the idea of animal magic and beloved memories of an “adopted” grandmother from her childhood. The real Emily lived in a cozy apartment across from Rebecca’s family and collected dolls. \nJim Zaccaria was born and raised in East Boston. Jim has worked varied jobs in graphic design—first as a printer\, then a print buyer\, and then as a graphic designer specializing in book cover design. His work has won acclaim from Bookbuilders of Boston\, The New York Book Show\, and the Boskone Art Show. Also\, his work has appeared in the annuals from Bookbuilders of Boston and Infected by Art. Much of his daily work is book cover design for publishers and independent authors\, though he feels the pull toward image creation. Over the last several years\, he has started to build his portfolio and exhibit at various conventions\, squeezing in new art every chance he gets. Jim has been drawn to the arts from an early age. Music is an immense inspiration for ideas\, and much of his work is influenced by a song title\, lyric\, or mood. Other subjects that motivate and spark his imagination are mythology\, poster design\, and artists working in imaginative realism. Most of his art is produced digitally\, and he sees that as a perfect medium for commercial works\, but he also enjoys working in traditional methods as well as a blending of the two. \n \n  \nNatalia Salvador was born in 1985 in Granada\, in the south of Spain. She grew up reading\, watching adventure films\, and playing classic adventure video games that inspired her drawings. She always liked art and admired book covers and interior illustrations\, so it wasn’t surprising when she decided to approach that world by studying fine arts and graphic design. Her mother always encouraged her and was the one who gave her the final push to pursue a career in illustration. Influenced by fantasy art and the Golden Age of illustration\, she enjoys creating beautiful images that tell a story. \n  \nGrowing up in Jamaica\, Michael Talbot had always had a strong desire to inspire and speak to others through art. In 2012 he left his home country to live in the United States and began pursuing his artistic dreams. He earned his BFA in Illustration and Graphic Design with a minor in Animation at Lesley University in Cambridge\, MA\, and has since been working as a Boston-based Freelance Artist on a wide range of projects\, exhibitions\, and showcases. Michael believes that all art is inter-connected in some facet; informing\, complimenting and/or enhancing each other. And although his passion and interest for storytelling is forefront in his practice and craft\, he tends to draw from his knowledge in as many areas of study as possible to help strengthen this process. Whenever possible\, he uses his rich cultural background from his early life in Jamaica to infuse\, improve\, and “season” whatever project he tackles\, often mixing both digital and traditional media.
