What does it take to be a storyteller in science, and how might people who don’t fit the traditional mold of STEM find their place in research? If you’re interested in science but deterred by the need for a doctoral degree, then this lecture is for you.

The Center for the Arts in Natick

Hailing from the city of Boston, Alternative Pop artist Jodi Heights stands out in the sea of singer-songwriters with her classically honed technique and her poetic prowess. She holds multiple degrees in music, including a Master of Music from the New England Conservatory.
This release concert celebrates Jodi’s night-themed album, Nocturne, her first Grammy-submitted project.
“I’ve always been a night owl, so writing and recording a whole project centered around loving the dark seemed natural to me. I hope people will receive ‘Nocturne’ as a lullaby to their weary hearts. Turn off all the lights. Maybe burn a few candles, and listen to the whole album at night. Come find your way in the dark.” – Jodi Heights
Nocturne is Jodi’s 6th recording project and marks her second project with Grammy-nominated engineer John Weston of Futura Productions (Roslindale, MA). The album is available in Dolby Atmos, a spatial audio technology for immersive sound.

This musical program features a collection of "New Songs" and Hymns published during the American Revolution. From the time of the Stamp Act through the British surrender at Yorktown, seditious colonists used these works to foment rebellion, to commemorate victory, and to give thanks for their preservation.
Tenor &amp; Harpsichordist Richard Franklin Donohue will explore this fiery repertoire that in the words of John Adams "cultivated the sensations of Freedom."
