A four-hour class devoted to teaching you what you need to know to begin, and continue, this pastime. Covered in the class are the basics of wood identification; as well as the layout, carving and finishing a hardwood wooden spoon. Focus is on carving technique, and hopefully, by the end of the class, participants will leave with a spoon of their own making, as well as the wood, skills and tools necessary to start another spoon. Participants should specify their dominant hand at application.

Plant free seeds, saplings and trees; learning opportunities (how to compost, etc.). Please note: Due to inclement weather, the venue has been changed to the Orpheum lobby for indoor activities (exhibits, arts & crafts, planting, music, food, and more). For hardy participants who want to hike, groups will depart at 12 noon and 1 p.m. (rain ponchos will be supplied). Cleanup is at 2:15 p.m., followed by movies (FernGully and To Be Forever Wild) at the Orpheum.

Hudson Area Library presents the modern and traditional Bangladeshi musical group, Moyna. This concert is part of the library's 2019 Music In The Stacks concert series and is curated by the Bangladeshi American Society of Hudson and emceed by Hudson Muslim Youth. A short q&a and refreshments will be available after the concert. Moyna is a musical duo from Seattle, which is made up of Palbasha and Durjoy Siddique. Both musicians originate from Bangladesh. They sing both in their native language of Bangla, and also create music sung in English. Palbasha Siddique, the voice of Moyna, is a Bangladeshi born American singer. She is best known for her performance of Praan, a song adapted from the collection of poems Gitanjali by Rabindranath Tagore, with music composed by Garry Schyman for Matt Harding’s “Dancing 2008” video. She has performed in a variety of music styles both in the US and Bangladesh. Durjoy plays acoustic guitar in the duo. As a duo of two lovebirds, Moyna is constantly in the search of finding new sounds which resonate the meaning of love. Their most recent performance was at the World Rhythm Festival in Seattle Center, where Moyna focused on Bangla folk music, which has immensely deep lyrical themes. These concerts, in the main area of the library, reflect a wide range of musical styles, genres, instruments and cultures. Audience members receive cultural passports, which will be stamped at each concert. Attendance at all five makes them eligible to win a gift certificate to a Hudson music venue.

Meg Baird, of Espers, and Mary Lattimore perform.
