In partnership with the Osher Map Library and Smith Center for Cartographic Education, Classical Uprising presents a noontime concert with Ethiopia's first (and only) all-women classical quartet. Cookies and coffee/tea will be provided.

Attendees may also visit the library’s current exhibition, "Maine on Display: Nineteenth Century Wall Maps Bird's Eye Views", featuring a variety of detailed bird’s eye view and wall maps of Maine counties, cities, and towns, and includes popular viewbooks and postcards.

Tickets – This event is free and open to the public, but advance registration is recommended. Seating is limited, so registration is limited to 20. Walk-ins will be admitted if space allows.
