SUMMARY:The 2026 Christmas YARN Ball
DESCRIPTION:The Grey Eagle and Worthwhile Sounds Present \nThe 2026 Christmas YARN Ball \nAll Ages • Standing Room Only \nSchedule: Doors 7:00 pm • Show 8:00 pm \nFeaturing: YARN \nYou might expect a band that calls itself Yarn to\, naturally\, tend to spin a yarn or two. “That’s what we do\, we tell stories\, live and in the studio\, truth and fiction”\,singer/songwriter Blake Christiana insists. “We don’t always opt for consistency. There’s a different vibe onstage from what comes through in our recordings. There’s a difference in every show as well\, you never know what you’re going to get.” \nYarn’s ability to persevere ought to come as no great surprise\, especially for a band that spent two years honing their chops during a Monday night residency at the famed Kenny’s Castaway in New York’s Greenwich Village. In effect\, it allowed them to rehearse onstage\, mostly in front of audiences that often ranged in size from five to a hundred people on any given night. 10 studio albums followed — Yarn (2007)\, Empty Pockets (2008)\, Leftovers Part One (2009)\, Come On In (2010)\, Leftovers Part 2 (2011)\, Almost Home (2012)\, Shine the Light On (2013)\, This Is The Year (2016)\, and Lucky 13 parts 1 & 2 (2019). The band then took to the road\, playing upwards of 170 shows a year and sharing stages with such superstars as Dwight Yoakam\, Charlie Daniels\, Railroad Earth\, Marty Stuart\, Allison Krauss\, Leon Russell\, Jim Lauderdale\, Leftover Salmon\, Amos Lee\, The Lumineers and many more. They’ve driven nonstop\, made countless radio station appearances\, driven broken-down RVs and watched as their van caught fire. They’ve paid their dues and then some\, looking forward even as they were forced to glance behind. \nIt’s proof positive that the Brooklyn and Raleigh based band have made their mark\, and in dealing with their emotions\, scars and circumstances\, they find themselves in a position to share those experiences with others who have juggled similar sentiments.

SUMMARY:Exhibition on Screen | Van Gogh: Poets & Lovers
DESCRIPTION:Two hundred years after its opening and a century after acquiring its first Van Gogh artworks\, the National Gallery\, London is hosting the United Kingdom’s biggest ever Van Gogh exhibition. Van Gogh is not only one of the most beloved artists of all time\, but perhaps the most misunderstood. \nThis film is a chance to reexamine and better understand this iconic artist. Focusing on his unique creative process\, “Van Gogh: Poets & Lovers” explores the artist’s years in the south of France\, where he revolutionized his style. Van Gogh became consumed with a passion for storytelling in his art\, turning the world around him into vibrant\, idealized spaces and symbolic characters. \nPoets and lovers filled his imagination; everything he did in the south of France served this new obsession. In part\, this is what caused his notorious breakdown\, but it didn’t hold back his creativity as he created masterpiece after masterpiece. Explore one of art history’s most pivotal periods in this once-in-a-century show. Made in close collaboration with the National Gallery.

SUMMARY:Margaret Curtis: Mental Notes
DESCRIPTION:The works included in this exhibition span over a decade and focus on themes of climate change\, societal decay\, and apocalyptic dread. With distinct wit and craftsmanship\, Curtis addresses these universal threats from a deeply personal perspective. \nThe work\, Spot Fire and Flash Flood\, is informed by the Hermit’s Peak/Calf Canyon wildfire of 2022\, which significantly altered the landscape near her second home of Las Vegas\, New Mexico. Additionally\, three works from her series Burning Bridges addresses related themes of destruction by fire and flood following the impact of Hurricane Helene on Western North Carolina. \nAlso included are a series of monoprints entitled Earth Ear\, in these images\, Curtis invites us to consider whether an earth-based intelligence or consciousness exists.  Rounding out the exhibition are several works from her Auriferous\, Emotional Cartographies and Weapons of War series\, which explore journalistic sensationalism\, political division and our Nation’s culture of violence. Lastly\, several of Curtis’ sketchbooks will be on display.

SUMMARY:Intermediate Block Printing: Create Your own Gift Wrap
DESCRIPTION:This is a TWO SESSION Workshop. Attendees will need to attend BOTH sessions.\nSession 1: Friday December 11th\, 6pm-8pm.\nSession 2: Wednesday December 16th\, 6pm-8pm \nCarve\, ink\, and print your way through this two-session deep dive into linoleum block printing. In the first session\, you’ll learn the full arc of block carving — from composition and design to techniques for creating expressive lines and textures. Then you’ll take the skills you learned and work on your block at home before the second session\, with tools provided to take with you. \nIn the second session\, you’ll bring your block to life to make your own block printed wrapping paper. Participants will learn the ins and outs of hand printing — working with patterns and tessellations to make a beautiful gift wrap to take home. Expect to take home several yards of paper and the ability to create infinitely more at home! \nThis course is intended to demystify the process of block printing. We aim to empower participants to build upon the skills learned and hone their own creative approach to the craft both in class and at home.

SUMMARY:The Lemon Twigs
DESCRIPTION:The Grey Eagle and Worthwhile Sounds Present \nThe Lemon Twigs’ two previous Captured Tracks albums\, A Dream Is All We Know (2024) and Everything Harmony (2023)\, certainly indicated something of a ground zero in their then five album career. “It was the beginning of making records that we would listen to ourselves\,” says Michael D’Addario\, the younger Twig brother\, now aged 26. By the time of A Dream Is All We Know and the future Michael classic “My Golden Years”\, The Lemon Twigs’ new era had truly begun. And now comes the third Lemon Twigs album for Captured Tracks\, Look For Your Mind!\, which underneath its poppy exterior contains an undercurrent of paranoia and suspicion. \nOpening with title track “Look For Your Mind”\, a jangly Michael number\, the listener is introduced to the guitar-driven harmony sound that is the centering theme of the album. Much of what was achieved on A Dream Is All We Know is here\, just more laser focused. It’s classic Twigs\, indebted to the golden age of guitar pop\, but in no way slavish. \nNew to this album is the inclusion of live Twigs Reza Matin (drums) and Danny Ayala (bass)\, as well as Eva Chambers of Tchotchke\, to the rhythm section. With the brothers previously having handled everything in the studio themselves\, this shows a newfound sense of freedom. “Gather Round” is one of Look For Your Mind!’s bigger productions.

SUMMARY:The Lemon Twigs
DESCRIPTION:STANDING ROOM ONLY \nTHE LEMON TWIGS\nThe Lemon Twigs’ two previous Captured Tracks albums\, A Dream Is All We Know (2024) and Everything Harmony (2023)\, certainly indicated something of a ground zero in their then five album career. “It was the beginning of making records that we would listen to ourselves\,” says Michael D’Addario\, the younger Twig brother\, now aged 26. By the time of A Dream Is All We Know and the future Michael classic “My Golden Years”\, The Lemon Twigs’ new era had truly begun. And now comes the third Lemon Twigs album for Captured Tracks\, Look For Your Mind!\, which underneath its poppy exterior contains an undercurrent of paranoia and suspicion. \nOpening with title track “Look For Your Mind”\, a jangly Michael number\, the listener is introduced to the guitar-driven harmony sound that is the centering theme of the album. Much of what was achieved on A Dream Is All We Know is here\, just more laser focused. It’s classic Twigs\, indebted to the golden age of guitar pop\, but in no way slavish. \nNew to this album is the inclusion of live Twigs Reza Matin (drums) and Danny Ayala (bass)\, as well as Eva Chambers of Tchotchke\, to the rhythm section. With the brothers previously having handled everything in the studio themselves\, this shows a newfound sense of freedom. “Gather Round” is one of Look For Your Mind!’s bigger productions. A Brian song with joyous orchestrations\, it feels like a turn of the century campaign song. The writer is looking for an uncorrupted leader\, but resolves that collective action is the only way forward. Musically it’s ornate and delightfully 1967\, but the mood and sentiment is distinctly 2026. “Every time we try to write something that’s completely straightforward\, we can’t help adding an element which comes out of left field.” explains Brian. \nBrian’s “Fire And Gold” starts off with a ringing power pop riff before turning everything inside out.
