The public is invited to kick off a season of live music outdoors at Bellforge, the newly named arts center planned at the former Medfield State Hospital.

The inaugural free family-friendly event on Saturday, April 9 from 10 am – 3 pm, features Olivia Wendel and Ghost Girl in the afternoon starting at 12:45 pm.

Bring a lawn chair or blanket, and enjoy treats from ThankQue Catering or Clarke’s Cakes and Cookies food trucks.

Raindate is Sunday, April 10 from 10 am - 3 pm.

Visitors are invited to walk the grounds of the campus and the Chapel will be open for tours starting at 10 am.

More than two dozen community groups have created fairy houses on display for the day, complete with photo opportunities and crafts for kids.

Students from Pointe Premiere School of Dance take the stage at noon, and artists will be on site to sell their handcrafted pottery, jewelry and photography all day.

Olivia Wendel is a songwriter from small-town Massachusetts.

Her debut album Windthrow paints a picture of suburban ennui, sorrow, and a longing for elsewhere.

Wendel says, 'I hope that people can hear something of their own experience in the album, be it in a melodic line, a lyric, or in the meaning behind the album….Especially in this time where it can feel lonely, I want people to know that I’m there with them and that we don’t actually experience anything in isolation.

It’s all part of a cycle.'

Gianna Botticelli, better known by her stage name GHOST GRL, is an Indie/Ambient artist from Boston, MA.

Combining her expressive vocals with soft and haunting melodies, GHOST GRL creates songs that are both somber and uplifting.

A self-taught guitarist, she began writing music at the age of 14 and has since released three studio albums; Settle, Home and Rewired.

Recently, GHOST GRL was nominated for two Boston Music Awards (2019); Vocalist of the year and New Artist of the Year.

Additional live music events are planned most Saturdays through October.

The schedule will be updated on Bellforge.org.
