davis_squareHi there!
This month's sprout spaghetti dinner is next Wednesday night, January 12 with Food Not Bomb's signature spaghetti served at 730PM and performances at 8PM. As always, the event will be at sprout's studios: 339R Summer St.
This month's theme is Not Your Typical Library.
We all know what public libraries are and that they're in trouble. Even in Somerville, we're hearing about the funding battles and support campaigns underway. At this month's sprout spaghetti dinner, we're going to look at a different set of libraries and library services--not your typical libraries. Maybe they don't traffic in books; maybe they aren't run by the government; maybe they're just bookcases in someone's living room. Whatever it is that sets these libraries apart, we want to hear their stories and how they handle issues that we traditionally associate with Public Libraries: access, censorship, safety, sharing, curation, and more.
Our performers will include ::
+ Sara Peattie and The Puppet Free Library [1]
+ Heather McCann and The Boston Radical Reference Collective [2]
+ Anna Mudd and other members of The Papercut Zine Library [3]
+ personal monologues sharing small-scale libraries in people's homes and workplaces
+ with music from The Moondog Madrigal [4] & The Spaghetti Dinner House Band [5]
