Vermont Stage teams up with Williston's Isham Family Farm for a moving production of Lanford Wilson's Pulitzer Prize-winning play Talley's Folley.

Vergennes gallery Northern Daughters presents "The Past Is Fighting Itself Again / Las Cuentas de Mi Abuela," an utterly compelling dual exhibition of the work of Maria Flores Galindo and Peter Wallis. Spanish artist Galindo's collages are delicate but evocative, demonstrating hours and hours of precise work; Vermont illustrator and printmaker Wallis' pieces display an innovative approach to classic techniques.
