Dave Fullerton at Acoustic Java in Worcester

The Marjorie Moser Print & Dye Workshop in Shelburne Falls (and here!)

For about two weeks every summer, crazily talented musicians Mark Mandeville and Raianne Richards hike from town to town and play free community concerts in the evenings. For free, for the people, for the music. To invite them to your town gazebo/library/coffee shop, see Massachusetts Walking Tour .

Nancy Lamb and the folks at the Leicester Senior Center 

The leather journal was customized and hand-crafted by a very talented bookbinder named Johanna Henning of Persamond Hot Foil Stamping and Paper Arts.

And to Jena Hardy, for, well, everything.
