Sprucing Up School Food With Gleaned Produce
Produce gleaned from local farms has been an ingredient staple at CommonWealth Kitchen (CWK) in Dorchester, Massachusetts since its founding days in 2009. A 2018 BioCycle article that featured CWK (scroll to end of post) reported that CWK processed over 2 tons of surplus Massachusetts apples purchased from the Boston Area Gleaners into 400 gallons of applesauce for Boston Children’s Hospital and the Boston Public Schools. That project helped lay the groundwork for CWK to collaborate with local gleaners to supply nutritious food to school districts in its region. Its facility in Dorchester houses a commissary kitchen that offers recipe development, ingredient preparation, cooking, packing and labeling and freezing if needed.

Lights Out at the Gardner
Alarm Will Sound, one of New York’s premiere new music chamber orchestras, performed in the Thursday Night Music series at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum Calderwood Hall, October 29th, 2026. Rather than presenting a concert of multiple works, conductor Alan Pierson lead AWS through Georg Friedrich Haas’s towering 2000 work in vain, one of the most talked-about pieces of the Spectralist catalogue. Heavily inspired by the work of Tristan Murail, the concert-filling 70-minute work also famously requires changes in the hall lighting to reflect its programmatic material, plunging the hall into darkness, even sans stand lights for performers and conductor, forcing musicians to memorize the music and play in the dark.
