Concord Conservatory hosts an open house.
I’ve been spending a chunk of my time lately cleaning out my grandmother’s apartment — she’s 98, and moving herself into a health care facility. I am so lucky to still have her, and thought I knew everything about her, until I started this project. You really get a fuller picture of a person when you see what treasures they tuck into the corners of their bureau drawers and linen closets. As much as I hate the process — I really don’t like sorting, organizing and packing — I’m really grateful for the chance to get to know this fascinating woman even better. My friend Jim Coutre had a similar opportunity, when he recently did a photography project for Concord Park. See, Concord Park, the independent and assisted living facility behind the …

The Home of the Brave project and Concord resident Jim Coutre launches a second career.
You may think the Concord Museum only deals with Concord history in the distant past, but you would be wrong. Case in point: their partnership with Quilter’s Way to participate in the Home of the Brave Project. This is a project designed to honor the fallen heroes of the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq by presenting their loved ones with quilts to honor their service. It takes its inspiration from quilts made for soldiers during the Civil War. So the museum is coordinating the making of a quilt by inviting people to make a $10 donation to the museum, which will get them the materials with which they can make their own square. They can then drop their finished square back off at the museum any time before September 15. Meaning you have …
