Franklin Perrell and Glen Hansen are guest curators for this summer’s art exhibition The Brewery Boys being held in the Upstairs Gallery. The Brewery Boys started as a weekly gathering of North Fork artists, taking its irreverent name from the Bowery Boys feature films. Gender was irrelevant and just showing up made you a member, but the collective talents have evoked comparison to the art colonies of the 1950s. This exhibition reprises such provocative exhibitions as Detours, The Cheeseball Show, and All About Bob, in which these artists participated. The exhibition runs daily from 7 June through the end of August. Entry is free and the exhibition is sponsored by the Friends of the Library.

Love Regency-era romance? Whether Jane Austen sets your heart aflame, or you prefer the high drama of “Bridgerton,” you’ll want to join the New Haven Museum and the “living historians” from Dirty Blue Shirts at the Pardee-Morris House (PMH) for a “show-and-feel” presentation of the Federal Period clothing worn during the early 1800s! We’ll explore how Connecticans stayed on top of European trends, and how they made their own sartorial marks on the international scene during “Lately Arrived in New London: Fashioning Federal Style" at PMH on Sunday, July 28, 2024, at 2 p.m. Register for this free NH250 event here: www.simpletix.com/e/dirty-blue-shirts-living-history-program-tickets-170601 For weather updates check FB/IG or call 203-562-4183.
