A group of 12 artists has been working since fall to help expand and diversify Passim’s offerings. The result of that effort begins with shows this week and will continue through the year.
Looking for something to do this weekend? Here are a few recommendations from Globe writers and critics, covering music, theater, comedy, museums, family events, and more.
Passim has launched The Folk Collective, a group of artists, musicians, and cultural thought leaders from the greater Boston area dedicated to exchanging ideas and developing projects to expand and diversify the musical and cultural offerings at the non-profit organization.
The Down Home Up Here Festival is back for the 11th year on April 15th and 17th. The festival, held annually on Patriots' Day Weekend, will feature more than a dozen Bluegrass and Old Time acts performing live on the Passim stage. There will also be classes for musicians looking to get into Bluegrass and Old Time music and a Bluegrass brunch on Sunday morning.
