Nothing is fixed in advance. The work grows through encounter.\nCoCo Haze is less a name than a field of relations—an ongoing practice of making and unmaking the self together.

SUMMARY:Watercolor Demonstration with Alonzo Clarke at North Shore Arts Association
DESCRIPTION:Join North Shore Arts Association for a watercolor demonstration with Alonzo Clarke. \nAlonzo Clarke is a local watercolor artist who fell in love with art at an early age.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Thomas Jefferson & the Beginnings of Democracy in Anglo-Saxon England with Richard Rosenfeld
DESCRIPTION:Historian\, author\, and Rocky Neck resident Richard Rosenfeld\, whose book American Aurora: A Democratic-Republican Returns was named “Best History Book” by the Los Angeles Times in 1997\, challenges a centuries-old understanding of where Anglo-American democracy began. Starting with Thomas Jefferson’s 1776 proposal for the Great Seal of the United States—which honored the Saxon leaders Hengist and Horsa as founders of England’s democratic traditions—Rosenfeld argues that Jefferson and generations of historians got the story wrong. This thought-provoking lecture offers a fresh perspective on the origins of democratic government and previews a presentation Rosenfeld will deliver at University of Cambridge this fall.
