SUMMARY:A Natural Dye Pop-Up Workshop: Kitchen Dyes & Shibori
DESCRIPTION:Join NDCo. at Agricole Farm Stop for a hands-on workshop to explore the art of natural dyeing using ingredients from the kitchen. Participants will learn a shibori resist technique to create a unique design on a vintage flour sack towel that will be dyed with either yellow onion skins\, red onion skins\, or avocado skins–your choice! \nShibori is a resist technique that looks similar to tie-dye; however\, it has been around since the 6th century. Natural dyeing dates back even further to the year 2600 BC. You will have the option to pick one dye to dye your towel–yellow onion skins for a golden yellow\, red onion skins for a mossy green\, or avocado skins for a pale blush coral. There will be time for Q&A and discussion on fugitive versus reliable kitchen dyes. You’ll leave with a beautiful naturally dyed textile and the knowledge to continue experimenting at home.

SUMMARY:Dexter Community Orchestra at 20 - a Celebration of the Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:Individual members of the Dexter Community Orchestra will hold the spotlight at the DCO’s festive twentieth anniversary concert Sunday\, March 8\, 4 pm at Dexter High School’s Center for the Performing Arts. \n                  To celebrate 20 years of music-making in Dexter\, music director David Schultz wanted to showcase the talents of some of the orchestra’s best players. Three soloists will perform movements from concertos by Weber\, Saint-Saens and Dragonetti. And each section of the orchestra will have their chance to shine in Britten’s “The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra”. This piece introduces the instruments\, one at a time\, and ends with a stirring demonstration of how the individual components of the orchestra come together to create the overall symphonic sound. Guest artist Stephen West will serve as narrator and guide for this musical tour. \n                  Soloists will include principal clarinetist Ralph Katz\, pianist Paul Shen (who also plays violin in the orchestra)\, and principal bassist Kirstin Brown. Mr. West\, a bass-baritone\, will also sing an aria by Mozart. A brass ensemble will open the program with Copland’s “Fanfare for the Common Man”. And the full orchestra will present Brahms’ rousing “Academic Festival Overture”. \n                  This is a once-in-20-years opportunity to hear the full range of the DCO’s virtuosity\, so don’t miss it! All DCO concerts are free and open to the public. No ticket is required; seating is first-come-first-serve\, so plan to arrive early for this memorable event. Donations to support the orchestra are gratefully accepted.
