Linden Tree Concerts at Temple Emmanuel

GREG GREENWAY Returns to WAKEFIELD’S LINDEN TREE CONCERT SERIES
 Sunday, October 18, 2026 at 2 pm. Come celebrate Linden Tree Concerts 42th season opener on Sunday, October 18th when multi-instrumentalist Greg Greenway, an international touring singer-songwriter, returns to Wakefield’s Temple Emmanuel. Born in the shadows of the now famous fallen statues of Richmond, VA, Greg Greenway moved to Boston for its rich Folk Music tradition. He has since become one of its most unique and superlative emissaries. Musically raised on the magically percussive right hand of Richie Havens, and the flowing lyricism of Eric Andersen, these seminal influences became the DNA of his own unique and continuing growth. He has blended them into a multi-instrumental, genre crossing style - the never-ending process of a musical omnivore.
His eight year collaboration with Pat Wictor and Joe Jencks as Brother Sun, reached thousands of fans with their intricate three part harmonies being heard in festivals and concert halls across the US and Canada. His newest project with his beloved friend of 35 years, Reggie Harris, is a musical presentation on Race in America called Deeper Than The Skin. \ One African-American, one White, together they convey a quintessential American story.
In the process, Greg's music has touched people all over the world. "What Must Be Done" and “In the Name of Love,” (a lead in to the U2 classic, “Pride,”) have been sung by choirs internationally. They have become defining pieces on his journey to becoming a consummate artist capable of addressing sensitive topics like Race in a way that connects audiences to their humanity while entertaining them at the same time.
In concert, Greg has been described as “one of the strongest, and finest voices in folk music.” The Boston Globe wrote, “Confessional one moment, rambunctiously disarming the next, few modern folk singers can own a coffeehouse stage as completely as Greenway.” Another reviewer perhaps described it best, “A profoundly rich poet and musician. Folk Music is too narrow a description.”
Musically, his guitar, piano, ukulele, and melodica reflect inspiration from all over the map–gospel, rock, blues, Jazz, and world music. But his center is in the singer/songwriter tradition that traces it roots all the way back to the social awareness of Woody Guthrie. His central appeal is that it all comes through the singular lens of Greenway’s own humanity and affinity for the audience. He has legendary energy, the wellspring of a presentation of high spirited give and take of such good humor that audiences unfailingly walk away uplifted. Greg’s most recent CD, Between Hello and Goodbye, was the #1 CD on the Folk Music DJ List for the month of August ’23. He was also the #1 artist for that month out of thousands that can be considered each month.
 “Greg Greenway is one of those artists who is so rich a talent that it is difficult to categorize him. He traverses, combines and mixes up musical genres, and manages to open a window on global events that bring us together as citizens of the world. Like other great performers before him, Greenway’s message is that we can all play a part and make a difference in the course of both our private and public lives. But few musicians can do just this with such style, passion and sheer musicality.”Folk &amp; Acoustic Music Exchange
Tickets will be $25, cash or check at the door. Tickets for those under 18 are $10. WUMB members receive $2 off when presenting their card.Reservations are recommended for preferential seating by emailing LindenTree85@comcast.net, &nbsp;texting or calling 781-521 3564. In our area, shows featuring Greg Greenway are popular. 
 The Linden Tree Concerts are now held in Handicapped accessible Temple Emmanuel at 120 Chestnut St. Wakefield, MA 01880. <a href="https://www.lindentreecoffeehouse.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.LindenTreeCoffeehouse.org</a>

Here at <a href="https://lifelovecheese.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Life Love Cheese</a>, we are all about supporting mental health. That's why our tagline is "Eat Cheese. Be Happy." While cheese can bring happiness, we can use a little extra umph to increase our happiness quotient. So, we thought it would be a great idea to host a series of events focused on mental health while snacking on cheese.
In a series we are calling "Brie &amp; Boundaries", we are partnering with Edith Block, a licensed social worker and inclusive marriage and relationship therapist, to talk about creating, maintaining and communicating personal boundaries.
For this holiday edition, Edith will talk about learning to managing boundaries during the crazy holiday season without feeling like you're missing out.
Saying "No" to any of the things or even all the things out there can be hard. During this discussion, Edith will talk about some strategies for staying connected with the world while protecting some boundaries.
We know, it's a scary topic. So, we are providing a mini grazing plate of comfort cheese and a sample of two wines to help you through.

Choose an Austin Prep Education Rooted in Augustinian Values

Austin Preparatory School, located in Reading, Massachusetts, is an independent Catholic prep school rooted in the Augustinian tradition. Serving students in grades 6 through 12, Austin Prep has cultivated a close-knit learning community since its founding in 1961. Guided by its mission to inspire hearts to unite, minds to inquire, and hands to serve, the school challenges students through a rigorous college preparatory program that includes honors and Advanced Placement courses, personalized instruction, and intentionally small classes. An Austin Prep education is preparation for the journey of life. Beyond academics, the school’s unwritten curriculum – the lived expression of veritas, unitas, and caritas (truth, unity, and love) – forms the heart of its mission. “At Austin Prep, we are on a journey that is life-changing and important,” says Head of School James Hickey, Ph.D. “Our patron, St. Augustine, embarked on a journey for the truth. At our core is an institution on the same journey, committed to exemplary teaching and learning.” Serving grades 6–12 under one roof allows this leading prep school to guide students through every stage of development—academic, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual. Community stands at the center of this experience, nurturing belonging and inspiring students to lead lives of purpose. Austin Prep athletics teams, competing in the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC), are recognized among the best north of Boston, reflecting the same drive and integrity found in the classroom. Nearly every graduate continues on to a four-year college, prepared not only for success in higher education but for a meaningful life shaped by faith, friendship, and service.
