Free!

Before it gets too cold join us for one last weekend of live music and art, great food, drinks, and company. On the 25th anniversary of one of the most monumental years in hip hop we're celebrating with a band of the area's best musicians replaying some of the year's classic tunes from groups like A Tribe Called Quest, Outkast, The Fugees, and more. Also featuring music from DJ Rec and DJ Theory and vendors selling a variety of arts, crafts, and clothing.

Self Evident Education (www.selfevidenteducation.com) will be premiering their newest episode, titled "A Mother's Bond.” It is based on an exhibit and research done by Historic Northampton and is funded in part by the Northampton Education Foundation. The episode will be followed by a conversation with creator and local educator Michael Lawrence-Riddell, accompanied by fellow educator and Boston Hip Hop legend, Akrobatik. This will run from 3:00-4:30pm indoors and will also be live-streamed.

Food will be provided by Masa Mexicano of Florence (http://masamexicano.com)

Beer and wine is also available from The Brian Boru.
