SUMMARY:The Trouble Notes to Perform at NMU
DESCRIPTION:The Trouble Notes\, a trio that blends traditional folk\, gritty progressive rock and explosive dance music\, will perform a concert and deliver two free public presentations at Northern Michigan University on Friday\, Oct. 4.

Tickets are $12 for general admission and free for youth 18 and under and NMU students. They can be purchased at tickets.nmu.edu. \nThe trio will participate in two free public presentations earlier in the day: one on music appreciation at 11 a.m.; and one on music forum at 1 p.m. Both will be held in Reynolds Recital Hall. \nHaving played more than 400 shows in 15 different countries\, The Trouble Notes have built a loyal fanbase with their unique and energetic performances. They have toured Europe and North America\, and performed on TV in the United States\, Europe\, Japan and Brazil. \nAccording to BBC Radio\, “Their musical influences take you on a journey around the world. You can’t help clap very loudly\, tap your feet or spontaneously jig along to their music. An absolute must-see.” \nFor more information on The Trouble Notes\, visit here.

SUMMARY:Houghton - Brew Street
DESCRIPTION:Brew Street (Lakeshore Drive)\, where a lively beer garden with music and food trucks will be set up. Friends and neighbors can unwind together wearing their flannels on the pier. Expect great beer pours\, regional food trucks from across the UP and a brief history lesson about the Lakeshore’s development over the years by the Carnegie Museum. Brew Street is a fundraiser for the Carnegie Museum\, a Keweenaw National Historical Park Heritage Site. \nBrew Street opens from 5-10 p.m. and will allow all ages to enjoy the bands\, history presentation and food trucks on the Houghton Pier. The adult beverage area will be 21+ for purchasing and consuming alcohol on Brew Street. \n  \nA 1917 map over what is now the Houghton Pier shows that Lakeshore used to be called “Brew Street” from Isle Royale to Dodge. \n  \nThe history and idea behind Brew Street originated from Houghton’s original lakeshore layout.  Brew Street ran from Dodge to Isle Royale Street\, between the railroad track and Shelden Avenue.  It was located behind what used to be Haas brewery. The City of Houghton has never lost touch with its resilient spirit\, and Plaidurday’s Brew Street is a perfect opportunity to stake your claim in the Keweenaw’s fall festivities. Follow up Friday’s fun with a Plaid Color Run on Saturday and Houghton’s Fall Fest. Brew Street is put on by Visit Keweenaw\, the Keweenaw Chamber of Commerce\, City of Houghton and the Carnegie Museum.

SUMMARY:"Cabaret" at NMU
DESCRIPTION:Northern Michigan University will present the daring and provocative musical Cabaret Oct. 3-5 and 10-12. The play is set in a Berlin nightclub as the 1920s draw to a close. It explores the tumultuous life of the city’s natives and expatriates as Germany slowly yields to the emerging Third Reich. \n“It’s a really interesting musical—more dark and gritty than happy-go-lucky—but very fun to put on\,” said director and choreographer Kristen Beth Ludwig. “It was a time of economic depression and the rise of fascism. It’s a political musical\, in a sense\, but not about an election. Part of why we put it into our season this year is because we are in a very divided time in this country\, and that is exactly where Germany was back then. Many of the themes are still relevant today\, and that just shows we still haven’t learned from our history\, and we’re going to continue that cycle if we can’t break free from it. \n“In the U.S.\, we talk about the free love era of the 1960s\, but that was very prevalent in the late ‘20s and early ‘30s in Germany\, before Adolph Hitler came to power. The nightlife was thriving\, and the people who work at the Kit Kat Club in Cabaret are very free with their sexuality\, very open with their gender fluidity.” \nThe source material for the musical is Christopher Isherwood’s novel The Berlin Stories\, about his experience in the city in the Jazz Age early ‘30s on the cusp of Hitler’s ascent. The book inspired a previous play\, I Am a Camera\, which portrays the writer as a detached observer from everything swirling around him. In Cabaret\, on the other hand\, the American novelist character named Cliff Bradshaw is actively involved in the plot. \n“Cliff is intent on writing his next great American novel\,” Ludwig added. “He’s already tried London and Paris for inspiration\, but finds himself in Berlin. He gets seduced by the nightlife and the Kit Kat Club\, where there’s an emcee who is like a puppet master for this memory play. Cliff is immediately taken with this English singer\, Sally Bowles\, an eccentric\, fascinating woman who ends up talking her way into living with him and starting a relationship.” \nA side story involves Fraulein Schneider\, the owner of the boarding house where Cliff rents an apartment. She tentatively begins a romance with Herr Schultz\, a mild-mannered fruit seller who happens to be Jewish. \nNMU will be performing the 1998 Broadway revival version of Cabaret\, which was directed by Sam Mendes. It featured Alan Cumming putting his stamp on the emcee role originated by Joel Grey\, and Natasha Richardson as Sally Bowles. The revival ran for five or six years and brought in several guest stars for the leading roles. \nThe choreography was by Rob Marshall\, who also directed and choreographed the movie musical Chicago. Bob Fosse had famously choreographed the 1972 Cabaret movie starring Grey and Liza Minnelli. Ludwig said she pays homage to both in her original choreography for the NMU production. \nThe NMU cast arrived on campus before classes started for a week-long boot camp to learn all of the music and staging for most of the big production numbers. \n“We have a live pit band for the first time in many years for the fall musical; it’s being conducted by my brother-in-law Matt Ludwig\, who retired as band director at Marquette Senior High School. Set designer Lex van Blommestein designed a runway that projects forward from the stage\, bringing the action as close to the audience as possible. And our cast is phenomenal. Kendyl Dahlstrom does a fantastic job playing Sally Bowles. Logan Newcomb\, who played Wayne in Puffs last season\, is our Cliff Bradshaw. And Michael Ahlstrom\, a Marquette native and crowd favorite\, is the emcee.” \nShowtimes are 7:30 p.m. Thursday-Saturday\, Oct. 3-5 and 10-12\, with a 1 p.m. matinee on Oct. 12. A sensory friendly Theatre for All matinee will be offered at 1 p.m. Saturday\, Oct. 5. Tickets are $25 for the general public; $22 for NMU employees\, seniors and military; $15 for youth; and $5 for NMU students. They can be purchase at nmu.universitytickets.com.

SUMMARY:Hancock - Laura Foster Nicholson Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:The Finlandia Art Gallery will present Foretelling the Future\, Reflecting the Past\, a textile exhibit by Laura Foster Nicholson. \n  \nThe exhibit will be held at The Finlandia Art Gallery\, located in the Finnish American Heritage Center (FAHC)\, Hancock from September 26 to November 13\, 2024. \n  \nA reception for the artist will take place at the gallery\, Thursday\, September 26\, from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. The reception is free and open to the public\, refreshments will be served.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMethane Glow\, 2022\, 23” x 43”\, Wool\, mylar\, cotton \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Climate change is not the future\, it is now\,” says Foster Nicholson in describing her work. An award winning textile artist\, Foster Nicholson uses her weavings to convey her deep concern for the environment and the effects of climate change. In her Finlandia Art Gallery exhibition “Foretelling the Future\, Reflecting the Past” Foster Nicholson will present two of her series: Venice and Containers.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Lagoon\, Flooding\, 2020\, 27” x 44”\, Wool\, mylar\, cotton \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHer Venice series strives to convey the future of damage\, dislocation and loss faced by all of us living near large bodies of water as a result of rising sea levels. “The poignance of seeing such a treasure of an artwork\, the City of Venice\, annually inundated with devastating flooding\, is a dramatic beacon\, highlighting the plight faced by cities around the world.”\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIl Redentore\, Flooded\, 2020\, 36″ x 30.5″ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn her Containers series\, she visually distills our societies ever increasing appetite for consumer goods and the vast network of shipping and trucking routes needed to meet that appetite. “The manufacture of the goods\, the energy expended\, the end use of goods no longer desired\, all deeply affect our environment and our health.”\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMV Express Pearl Fire\, 2021\, 25” x 45”\, Wool\, mylar\, cotton \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFoster Nicholson is of Scottish and English heritage and had strong support from her family to study art. Her education led her first to Kansas City Art Institute where she received her Bachelor of Fine Arts\, but it was her graduate education at Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield\, Michigan that made her a life-long friend of Finland. \n“I went on to get my MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art which was highly recommended by my professor. Cranbrook is a very small but intensively aesthetic school\, dedicated to the hand\, critical thought and vision\, and the goals of the arts and crafts movement\, a handmade environment\,” says Foster Nicholson.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCranbrook Academy of Art\, Bloomfield Hills\, Michigan \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Eliel & Loja Saarinen\, a Finnish Architect and his textile designer wife\, designed much of the original Cranbrook community\, with buildings detailed down to the laying of each brick\, bringing in sculptors and metalsmiths and weavers to embellish and bring to life this extraordinary Finnish American environment. Their aesthetic has lived on for decades at Cranbrook\, and I became a devotee.” \n  \n“So now\, I am part Finnish\, by adoption\,” continues Foster Nicholson. “I was\, and still am\, mesmerized by the totally designed environment\, engaging art and craft and design in equal portions. When I was a student there\, I had a work-study job at the Cranbrook Museum\, helping to prepare Loja Saarinen’s rugs and textiles for a large exhibition about Cranbrook (Design in America: the Cranbrook Vision\, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art). And now\, I live in New Harmony\, Indiana\, a Utopian settlement full of art\, artists\, visionaries\, and life.” \n  \nFoster Nicholson’s artwork is in a number of museum collections\, including the Art Institute of Chicago\, the Minneapolis Institute of Arts\, the archives of the Venice Biennale\, Racine Art Museum\, Reading Public Museum\, Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum of the Smithsonian Institution\, and the Cotsent Collection of the Textile Museum\, Washington\, DC\, as well as many private and corporate collections.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nForetelling the Future\, Reflecting the Past will be on display at The Finlandia Gallery through November 13\, 2024. \nThe Finlandia Art Gallery is located in the Finnish American Heritage Center\, 435 Quincy Street\, Hancock. Gallery hours are Monday-Friday\, 8:30 am – 4:30 pm.
