Maine School of Science and Mathematics Summer Camp Summer Camp R ® Tina Turner, Janis Joplin, and Aretha Franklin are three power-house musicians honored at Portland Symphony Orchestra’s “Women Rock” on January 19 at Merrill Auditorium. “As a classical orchestral musi- cian, I don’t often have a chance to play the music of rock legends, espe- cially women who rock(ed) our musical world,” PSO French horn player Nina Miller says. “As a child of the 1960s and 1970s, I grew up listening to these women legends. The musician I’ve become is due, in large part, to their strong influences in my life.” Queens of Rock! w i n t e r g u i d e 2 0 1 9 1 9 courtesy sunday river Concierge Getaway On February 27, Portland Monthly and the Portland Museum of Art present Jacqueline and Jilly, the new film by Maine’s own writer, director, actor Victoria Rowell. The film centers around a well-connected fam- ily’s confrontation with their daughter’s accidental addiction to opioid painkillers. The screening is free to the public and will conclude with a 20-minute Q&A. I t’s Friday night, the car is rat- tling with your skis, and your babe is ready for you to start your lovely drive to ski country in Bethel. If you plan to spend the next two days on the mountain at Sunday River, you’ll want a cozy nook to close the night in. The second you walk through the doors of The Briar Lea Inn you’ll be warmed by cheerful voices flowing from the Jolly Drayman Pub downstairs. Rooms start around $100 per night for a Jan- uary weekend. To bar hop in the wilderness, stop by the local tavern Sud’s Pub for a Maine Bison Burger ($13) and a beer, or visit Matterhorn ski bar for a Glacier Bowl ($17.50). It’s probably best to reserve that one for post-mountain activities. At 4 p.m.,the slopes of South Ridge and North Peak light up at Sunday River,so you can ski into the night.
