SUMMARY:Buffalo Exchange Tokens for Bags® Fundraiser
DESCRIPTION:ARL is happy to announce that we have been selected as a recipient of the Buffalo Exchange Tokens for Bags® program from July through December 2025. You can now support ARL just by shopping at Buffalo Exchange in Somerville and in Brookline. Instead of a plastic bag\, the Tokens for Bags® program offers every customer who makes a purchase one “token” valued at five cents (the cost to produce a bag) to donate to one of several local charities selected by the store. The program has generated over $982\,840 for hundreds of local nonprofit organizations since 1994 and has saved over 19.65 million plastic bags from the landfill. Learn more. \nMassachusetts Buffalo Exchange Locations \n\nBrookline location\n\nSomerville location

SUMMARY:Holiday Boston Pops
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, December 7th at 7:30pm\, enjoy the magic of the season with Boston Pops\, Tanglewood Festival Chorus – and a surprise appearance from ARL!  Check back here soon for details.  \nGet cozy with classics like “Jingle Bells\,” “The 12 Days of Christmas\,” and “Sleigh Ride” by purchasing tickets today https://www.bso.org/events/holiday-pops-2025?performance=2025-12-07-19%3A30 \n\nAbout:  Led by conductor Keith Lockhart\, the Boston Pops\, known affectionately as “America’s Orchestra\,” performs an exciting and eclectic mix of orchestral arrangements from a wide range of traditions including Broadway and the great American songbook\, film music\, classical\, jazz\, pop\, country\, folk\, and\, of course\, holiday classics. The Pops was created in 1885 as the “light classical” summer season venture of the Boston Symphony. The Boston Pops Orchestra reached its current iconic status during the 50-year tenure of the legendary Arthur Fiedler\, who was succeeded in 1980 by the equally renowned film composer John Williams. Keith Lockhart took the helm in 1995. It was Fiedler who started the tradition of Pops performances on the Charles River Esplanade\, including the annual Fourth of July celebration\, brought the Pops to television with Evening at Pops (1970-2004)\, and initiated Holiday Pops\, which marked its 50th anniversary in 2023. Fiedler welcomed to our stages dynamic\, world-class guest artists including Ella Fitzgerald\, Dizzy Gillespie\, Julia Child\, and Bob Hope. That tradition continues today with Keith Lockhart working with such stars as Brian Stokes Mitchell\, The B-52s\, Chaka Khan\, Nick Jonas\, and Rhiannon Giddens. With the Pops\, Keith has made 81 television shows\, led 45 national and 5 overseas tours\, led the Pops at several high-profile sporting events including the Super Bowl\, and recorded fourteen albums. Through it all the orchestra has remained of the most recorded\, familiar\, and beloved ensembles in the world today.
