Over the course of a career that's spanned three decades, 13 albums, Grammy and Golden Globe nominations, TV & film appearances (Buddy Holly in "La Bamba"), and thousands of performances, Marshall Crenshaw's musical output has maintained a consistent fidelity to the qualities of artfulness, craftsmanship, and passion, and his efforts have been rewarded with the devotion of a broad and remarkably loyal fan base.

Along with touring around the country and the occasional recording project, Marshall currently hosts his own radio show, "The Bottomless Pit", every Saturday at 10 PM on New York's WFUV (http://www.wfuv.org/content/bottomless-pit). Other current projects include an in-progress documentary film about legendary record producer Tom Wilson. "This is a road that I never imagined taking before" says Crenshaw, "but it's been amazing and is going great."

Proof of vaccination and wearing masks indoors are required.

Glassblower Moshe Bursuker will virtually give us a glimpse into his studio. Bursuker’s glass pieces are inspired by his love of both photography and sculpture. He has developed a relationship between two artistic mediums that conflict in many ways. While glass is three-dimensional and formed by hand with heat, photography is two-dimensional, seen by the eye and created by light.
