North Mississippi drone electric blues meets Jimi Hendrix in Hadley’s music, who will be performing music from his 2020 release “Daybreak in Alabama – The Langston Hughes Project”.

“If I had sunk down in the waters I know that I would have gone on down saying, ‘Take it easy, but take it,’ and if I had plenty of water and time to make a longer speech I'd have said, as I've always said, ‘This world is your world and my world, take it easy, but take it.’” – Woody

"All You Can Write Is What You See," an all-ages creative writing workshop, is coming to the Woody Guthrie Center on Sept. 12, at 2 p.m. The workshop will give participants an overview of Woody's biography and his music as written work, focusing on his lyrics and how they were derived from personal and learned experiences.

The title is taken from notes Guthrie scrawled at the bottom of the original handwritten lyrics to his most famous and beloved song, "This Land Is Your Land." A return to observational writing, the workshop is an opportunity to hone creative writing skills and learn more about our society, country and people. Participants will have the opportunity to "write what they see" by examining current events and using the creative process to write their own lyrics or prose.

Free and open to the public. Learn more: woodyguthriecenter.org/event/all-you-can-write-workshop-sep-2026

What does it take to create an exhibition? Join the Woody Guthrie Center for "We All Work Together," a special virtual series that takes members behind the scenes of our exhibitions and the collaborative work that brings them to life.

Tonight at 6 p.m., Woody Guthrie Center members are invited to join Senior Director Cady Shaw virtually on Zoom as she shares how “A Dozen Loops: The Radical Voice of Woody Guthrie” evolved from an initial idea into a fully realized exhibition. Learn about the inspiration behind the exhibit, the themes that guided its development and the collaborative process that shaped its vision. Discover what happens long before an exhibition opens to the public.

She was featured in a few exhibits at the Woody Guthrie Center over the years, most recently “My Eye to a Lens: Music Photography by David Gahr” and most prominently in this display from "Stronger Together: The Power of Women in Country Music," presented and curated by the GRAMMY Museum®, in 2021.
