If you have spent any significant amount of time in downtown New Bedford in the last few years, you’ve likely encountered her.
Strumming her guitar and busking on Purchase Street or performing at Cafe Arpeggio, or working behind the counter at The Baker as a short order cook, or giving lessons at Painting with A Splash, a boutique studio for aspiring wannabe Picassos, Autumn Liv Cyr is one of those folks that everyone seems to know.
A bubbly twenty-something hippie chick (not meant with any sense of disparagement) who often peppers her vocabulary with 1960s slang like “groovy,” Cyr is an earnest, sharp and multifaceted talent, with firm footing in the culinary, visual and performing arts.
