Tracing History Along Massachusetts’ South Coast *In-Person* *NEW*

The South Coast of Massachusetts (not to be confused with Boston’s suburban South Shore!) stretches for 30 miles along beautiful Buzzards Bay. From the start of the Cape Cod Canal to the Rhode Island border, its communities are rich in history and are all just an easy day trip from Boston. In this class, we'll trace Massachusetts history through an illustrated discussion of diverse historic sites on and near the South Coast. The region includes former industrial powerhouses now reinventing themselves as well as picturesque small towns. And it all relates back to the waterways that make the South Coast an appealing destination today. The class will provide historical insight and some great ideas for close-to-home trips focused on history and heritage. Instructor: Elizabeth Merrick This class will meet in-person at CCAE.

Exploring Art Movements Through Plated Desserts: The Flavors & Aesthetics of Rococo

During this part lecture, part hands-on confectionary art class, we'll learn about the artists of the 18th century Rococo movement, and create a complex plated dessert that will represent their works, both in aesthetics and flavors. The confection we'll craft is a baby baba (yeast-based cake) soaked in a citrus white rum syrup, abloom with a burnished toffee hand-sculpted flower and piped with gold chocolate buttercream scallops and rosettes that are punctuated with sugarpaste pearls. Lavender infused meringue kisses that embrace the perimeter will complete the fanciful confection. This original recipe and design captures the exuberant ornamentation -- with elements often modeled on nature -- and jovial romance of paintings by artists such as Jean-Honore Fragonard and Elisabeth Louise Vigee-Le Brun. Whether one has synesthesia, possesses only a somewhat heightened sensory awareness, or is merely curious to explore how flavors correspond to shapes and colors, this class will inspire art history and confectionary enthusiasts to explore beyond the common sensory constraints.

Regional American Cuisine: Southeastern Farmlands *In-Person* *NEW*

When colonists originally settled in our nation’s southeast, their goal was to farm. Originally, in the 15th century the word, plantation, was a verb meaning “to plant.” Over time, our nation’s first settlers created an early capitalist venture that would dominate the culture of the South; a way of life that was rife with inequality from the time it was established. These early settlers may have brought their Old World crops to the region, but it was the skills and sensibilities of their enslaved labor that makes this region’s defining dishes distinctive. Tonight, we will make several recipes that celebrate a special kind of Southern cooking. Instructor: Sheri Boyden This class will meet in-person at CCAE.
