You’ll walk together\, listening to segment 1 in one direction\, then turn around and listen to segment 2 as you walk back to the origin point. The entire audio piece runs ~22 minutes. Then\, there will be a short presentation of the public artwork also made for this project (based on community-generated\, greenway-related bird data!)\, followed by a Q&A with the artist. \nThis free community event takes place outdoors. Participants will meet at the S. Small Street entrance to the greenway. Please be mindful of neighbors’ lawns and driveways when parking. Bring your smartphone and headphones/earbuds! You will access the audio project on your phone and listen to it through your headphones while walking the greenway together. Make sure to bring a water bottle and shoes you can walk in! Robeson Creek Greenway is accessible for wheelchairs and strollers; it is paved and relatively flat. \nParking is available along S. Small Street\, or you can use the public parking lot at Main Street Station. Please cross East Street (Business 64) if you choose to park there. The S.

SUMMARY:Stories in Blue: A Community Indigo Project
DESCRIPTION:Join the Chatham Arts Council for Stories in Blue: A Community Indigo Project on Sun\, May 3\, 10am-3pm at the Chatham County Arts Center. Stories in Blue: A Community Indigo Project with Deena Class brings community members together through the shared wonder of indigo—how this one plant pigment has been worked with by cultures all over the world for thousands of years. \nThe project will culminate in free public workshops\, and participants will pre-register so that Deena can ensure adequate space\, supplies\, and materials. These workshops will take place in April 2026 and lead to the unveiling of the community indigo quilt in May 2026. During the workshops\, each participant will dye two fabric squares—one to take home and one to contribute to the community quilt—and each person will also receive an indigo seedling (Persicaria tinctoria) to nurture at home. In addition\, community members can attend free drop-in quilt-making sessions at the Chatham Parks and Rec Arts Center in downtown Pittsboro on May 3\, where they will piece and quilt the indigo creation together (no sewing experience necessary). Through the quilt\, the seedlings\, and the stories participants share\, the project will carry forward the idea that indigo belongs to everyone. It will honor indigo not only as a color or craft\, but also as a living thread that runs through generations and across cultures\, continents\, and communities. \nThis free community event takes place indoors. Free parking is available on-site. See more Chatham Arts Council events.

SUMMARY:Chatham Yardbirds vs Carolina Yankees
DESCRIPTION:Come out for a night of baseball and watch Chatham Yardbirds vs Carolina Yankees at the new Chatham Yardbirds field in Paul Braxton Park on the following dates: \n\nWed\, May 27\, 7pm-10pm First Home Game of the Season!\nFri\, Jun 12\, 7pm-10pm.\n\nGates typically open about an hour before first pitch. The team plays an Old North State League schedule against opponents from across North Carolina and southern Virginia\, with most games on weekday evenings and weekend afternoons or nights. Tickets are general admission and inexpensive\, so families tend to show up in groups\, find seats close to the action\, and stay through the seventh-inning stretch. \nThe pace is the appeal. Wood bats sound different from the metal you hear at most amateur fields\, the players are all college athletes spending their summer chasing reps\, and the gap between the action and the crowd is small enough that you can hear the catcher talking. Between innings\, the staff runs the kinds of small-park promotions that summer collegiate league has built its reputation on: t-shirt tosses\, on-field contests\, kids chasing foul balls in the gravel. If one of those players is staying with a host family two streets over\, you might see him at the diner the next morning. That’s the trade summer ball makes for not being a major-league night out: you get closer to the game\, and closer to the people playing it. \nVisiting from out of town? Pair a Yardbirds game with dinner in downtown Siler City beforehand\, or a slow drive home through Chatham County’s farm roads after the final out. \nWeather\nPack layers for night games\, as central North Carolina evenings can drop into the 60s in early summer. Summer thunderstorms are routine in the Piedmont\, and games can be delayed\, suspended\, or postponed. Check the Yardbirds’ Instagram\, Facebook\, or website on iffy weather days before driving out. The team sets refund and rain-check policies. \nLogistics\nOn-site and street parking will be available. This event takes place outdoors\, and the field is lighted for evening games. A concession stand operates at the complex with standard ballpark fare. This is a family-friendly event\, with group tickets available. Bring sunscreen\, a hat\, a light layer for night games\, a water bottle (non-glass)\, cash\, a card for concessions and merch\, and of course\, your glove! See more Chatham County Yardbirds games.
