James DeMarco grew up in Watertown and became a goaltender at age 5. It’s his life’s passion to stand between the pipes and keep the puck out of the net. Combining this with the love of cartooning Small Saves emerged in 1991 and took on a life of his own. “To play goal – then come home and draw Small Saves — is my ideal definition of a good day.”
Olespana in Coolidge Square. I suggest starting this weekend with a peaceful stroll through the art exhibit at the Mosesian Center that ends this Friday. It is showing the art of their teachers as well as their students, and there are some beautiful pieces on exhibit. Then, Saturday, take any 4-10 year olds to the library to see a martial arts display to motivate them to get out explore the physical arts. In the afternoon, you and your honey (or your friend) can learn how to connect in healthier ways in the Art of Receiving and Giving workshop.

Head to Mount Auburn Cemetery for a sunset meditation session. Sound in various forms will be the attraction this weekend, from a sunset sound meditation at Mount Auburn Cemetery on Saturday evening to a unique one-man concert at Donohue’s on Sunday evening. What is more iconic for an American summer evening? A very unusual talk is happening at Hibernian Hall on Sunday afternoon for those fascinated by the human body. Take a look at the details.

On Tuesday, September 10, the Watertown Free Public Library (WFPL) invites you to join in conversation with celebrated Boston area artists about their work, creative processes, collaborations, and experiences with WHERE ARE ALL THE BLACK PEOPLE AT, a project and movement directed by fine art photographer and Watertown resident Archy LaSalle. Joining LaSalle for this dialogue are artists Jay Lamour, JaPix Belmer, Maddie Lam, Jules Cleo, Craig Bailey, DaNice D. Marshall, George Annan Jr., Grace Ramsdell, Olivia Slaughter, and Jake Stout. WHERE ARE ALL THE BLACK PEOPLE AT is a grassroots organization whose mission is to bring attention to and help art institutions rectify past injustices of underrepresenting Black and Brown artists in their permanent collections. Founder Archy LaSalle states that, “WHERE ARE ALL THE BLACK PEOPLE AT is committed to ensuring that all Black and Brown artists have the freedom to pursue their creativity in all ways, regardless of their family history and culture. Celebrating the art of all artists and particularly the younger generation of Black and Brown artists, WHERE ARE ALL THE BLACK PEOPLE AT will continue to stay vigilant and committed to the importance of access and inclusion to the permanent collections of our art institutions.”
Listen in and join the conversation on Tuesday, September 10 at the Watertown Free Public Library, 6:30–8:30 PM.
