On Jan. 8 at 7:30 p.m., St. John’s Coffeehouse will “dish up” a great lineup to benefit Arlington EATS (formerly the Arlington Food Pantry) and local musicians affected by pandemic cancellations.
The program features the eclectic musical alchemy of multi-instrumentalist and composers Akili Jamal Haynes and Val Jeanty in a special program they’ve designed just for this fundraiser. Both musicians are affiliated with the Berklee School of Music and many other innovative musical projects.
Opening the show will be Arlington s poet laureate, Steven Ratiner (“Red Letter Poems”), accompanied by St. John s own composer, clarinet and saxophone player, Todd Brunel.

NEAT, Neighbors Eating All Together, is a passionate group of citizens who started serving Community Meals in spring 2017 in the downstairs hall of St. John’s Church in Arlington. NEAT came together to create a welcoming space for people to gather and be nourished, serving a meal open to all Arlington citizens in need of either food, company or both. Before we suspended operations, NEAT had served 27 community meals. On Thanksgiving Day, we finally had the chance once again to offer nourishment to those in need, and we are so very grateful for the “village” of local groups that came together to allow us to do this!
