Today we're seeking food for the body and soul as we head to where the internet fears to tread, and to where our region’s hunger needs are greatest

In Ashfield, a project exploring the life of artist Leonora Carrington is shifting and expanding for a new location and audience. Double Edge Theater’s current production “Leonora: La Maga y la maestra” takes a look at the surrealist artist’s life through the medium of her work, and we tag along with a gaggle of franklin county high school students to interact with this maelstrom of the earthly, the divine, the uncanny, and the very real.  Plus we'll let you know about a recent book that speaks with Executive Director Stacy Klein about the previous incarnation of this work, along with essays and conversations about Leonora's influence on other artists and authors including Tilda Swinton,  Samantha Sweeting,  Heidi Sopinka, and others. 

And in Chicopee, the Food Bank of Western Massachusetts is getting ready for its biggest push of the year. THE MARCH. But the day to day operations of the only food bank west of Worcester is much more than donations and distribution. We chat with Laura Sylvester Public Policy Manager about how edict can aid their mission to reduce and prevent hunger in western mass, and hear some of the success stories of their advocacy that might encourage you to walk some or all of 43 miles to help them in their mission. We'll also hear about an event in Boston on Nov. 13 where you can help the HIP program regain it's previous aid levels.
