Mount Auburn Cemetery’s Artist-in-Residence Lia Pikus

This weekend’s fun starts on Friday with the St. James Armenian Church’s 78th annual bazaar. Go grab some shish, losh or chicken kabobs while your kids get face painted and you pick up your raffle winnings. On Saturday starting at 11 the library is putting on their impressive Zine Fest. You can participate as a writer, reader or just if you are zine curious. At Mt. Auburn Cemetery on Saturday there is time for some peaceful time in nature. Their artist in residence, Lia Pikus is leading a deep listening ritual including some of her lovely cello playing. Saturday night there’s a comedian in town. Dave Kane will be at the Ancient Order of the Hibernians with his show, Jokes My Irish Father Told Me. On Sunday afternoon, there is a very enticing event called Remixing the Forest at Arsenal Yards. It’s an immersive audio-visual experience, which invites visitors to dynamically remix sound and imagery by interacting with physical elements. Go check it out!

The Boston Gold Kings play hockey in the Power Play Senior Hockey League (PPSHL). The Gold Kings also happen to make Watertown their home, playing their home games at the John A.Ryan Arena. The Gold Kings have worked hard to make a footprint in the community the past few years, making appearances at Faire on the Square, for example. And the Gold King’s sponsor list includes many Watertown businesses.
