Lincoln news for Apr. 17
LINCOLN — The Ladies Aid Industria spring rummage sale will be held at Burnham Hall the first weekend in May. The sale hours will be Thursday, May 1, from 1 to 7 p.m., Friday, May 2, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday, May 3, from 8 to 10:30 a.m.
Donations will be accepted on Wednesday, April 30, from 1 to 7 p.m., downstairs at Burnham Hall. Donations should be spring and summer items in clean, undamaged condition. Electronics, helmets and car seats will not be accepted.
The steering committee of Lincoln One Small Step invites you into a community conversation on Tuesday, May 6, at 5:30 p.m. at Burnham Hall. This gathering is being designed with these goals in mind: providing an opportunity for community members of all persuasions to come together with an attitude of openness and curiosity about their neighbors, to have a conversation about our shared values and where we are on common ground, and to discuss the diverse factors that contribute to a person’s perspective.
The initial community conversation is based on a variation of Vermont Public’s StoryCorps’ One Small Step, a program that brings people with different views together to have a conversation — not to debate politics — but simply to get to know each other. The initiative helps combat the polarizing effects of news and social media by talking to each other one-on-one again, approaching each other with curiosity, allowing us to remember that we all have more in common than we think.
Pizza, beverages and sweets will be provided. Please RSVP to Deborah Lubar at [email protected] if you would like to attend.
Burnham Presents Bruce Molsky and Ale Möller for a special season finale concert featuring dynamic harmony from Nordic and Appalachian cultures on Saturday, May 10, at 7:30 p.m. at Burnham Hall.
Grammy-nominated Molsky wows audiences with his authentic and personal interpretations of rarities from the Southern Appalachian songbook and other musical traditions from around the globe. Swedish musician and multiple Grammy Award winner Möller creates his own musical universe and has earned legendary status for how he expanded the concept of folk and traditional music for decades.
Doors open at 7 p.m. Tickets are $20 general admission, $25 generous admission and $10 for children 12 and under. Youth on laps are free. Homemade refreshments will be available.
