Creative Coven: Pop-up Gallery and Spectacle of Collective Works
The Creative Coven is a grassroots female and BIPOC centered creative workshop led by local women, devoted to nurturing artistic impulses and birthing art into the world. They are a diverse collective of writers, growers, makers, plant based dyers, film makers, poets, storytellers and researchers. For the past three years the Creative Coven has been gathering in intimate settings across The Berkshires, and these gatherings are now culminating in this pop-up display of collective magic.
Event Highlights:
Art Exhibition: Artists such as Daisy Noyes, Jenny Tsai, Heather Fisch and Saadia Shaza will exhibit their respective photographs, sculptures, and mixed media pieces that reflect themes of identity, resilience, rage and empowerment.
Spoken Word Performances: Experience moving and thought-provoking spoken word and poetry performances from writers and poets such as EVEN Christine Gardiner, Jessica Collins and Thea Anderson
Interactive Discussions: Engage with the artists after the exhibition and performances through informal discussions and Q&A - an opportunity for deeper insight into their creative processes and the themes.

Race Brook Lodge is a hidden gem in The Berkshires, at the foot of Mt. Race and a short hike from the Appalachian trail. The yoga & event barn at Race Brook is simultaneously rustic and sublime, steeped in hundreds of years of New England history. The Stagecoach Tavern is unpretentious fine dining, exquisite farm-to-table cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere. Much of the food is sourced from Race Farm, right on the property!
Trailhead Berkshires is a seasonal, casual pop-up dining spot at the base of the Taconic Range in Sheffield, MA. The menu blends comfort food, trail snacks, and elevated fine-casual options, all served in a relaxed, welcoming setting. Guests can order online or at the counter, then eat anywhere on the property—inside our historic tavern, outside by the fire pits, or on the lawn with a game of cornhole. The vibe is informal, family- and dog-friendly. No reservations needed. We also offer trail snacks, supplies, and parking for visitors headed to Race Brook Falls and the Appalachian Trail. Keep an eye on the Race Brook Lodge calendar of events, including weekly “Reggae Wednesday Pool Club” and Sunday Jazz Brunch. Guests can also join the Pool & Fire Club for full access to the pool, sauna and other amenities on the property throughout the summer and fall.
