Over the last 20 years Lynne Hanson has built a solid reputation for live performance and produced 10 (and counting) albums of critically acclaimed original music including her Canadian Folk Music Award winning collaboration with Lynn Miles “Heartbreak Song for the Radio”. Lynne describes her musician’s persona as a “heartbreak poet” whose compositions include “a little blues\, a little country\, and a little folk with a whole lot of grit and capital T truth in the lyrics”. To this list we should add her great ear for intriguing melody and story lines. This folk roots blend has been labeled “Americana” and is certainly a term Lynne does not dismiss. However\, her extensive catalog offers many wonderful pieces that fall outside of that genre musically while retaining Lynne’s unmistakable rich vocals and mature lyrical standards. Joining Lynne will be Blair Michael Hogan\, her long time collaborator and one of the most gifted and versatile guitarists on the scene today. This pair will bring us a selection of material that includes some of Lynn’s newest work. Honest\, finely crafted compositions and impeccable performance. Prepare to be captivated. \nFor more information plus video Click Here \nTickets are available at Tickets Please \nThanks to the generous support of the Ontario Arts Council we are able to offer a $20 discount to those 30 years and under\, and if they wish\, an additional $20 discount for their “guest” of any age. \nRegular – 31 years & older: $35 plus fees\nDiscount Single – 30 years & under: $15 plus fees\nDiscount Pair – 30 years & under with guest of any age (2 tickets): $30 plus fees \nBuy Now \nFunding assistance provided by the Ontario Arts Council and the Government of Ontario \n\n  URL:https://meraschoolhouse.org/event/music-at-mera-lynne-hanson-and-blair-hogan/ LOCATION:MERA Schoolhouse\, McDonald’s Corners\, 974 Dalhousie Concession 9A\, McDonalds Corners\, Ontario\, K0G 1M0\, Canada CATEGORIES:Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://meraschoolhouse.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/01-lynne-hanson-wall-cropped-reduced.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20261019T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20261019T120000 DTSTAMP:20260922T143038Z CREATED:20260914T220415Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260922T143038Z UID:10002254-1792404000-1792411200@meraschoolhouse.org SUMMARY:Open Artists Studio DESCRIPTION:The Monday morning open studio which runs from 10-12\, welcomes those working in all art\nand craft disciplines.

We span several different areas of art and craft.\nAttendees are required to be members of MERA and must bring their own supplies.\nDuring good weather the group pivots from the MERA schoolhouse to the great outdoors in\norder to do plein air work. It is\, therefore\, important for people interested in joining that they contact group leaders to have their name added to the group chat and have any questions answered. \nMondays\, 10-12\, excluding statutory holidays. \ncontacts:\nSandy McNulty sandymcnulty8@gmail.com\nDeb Shea debjshea@gmail.com URL:https://meraschoolhouse.org/event/open-artists-studio-2/2026-11-02/ LOCATION:MERA Schoolhouse\, McDonald’s Corners\, 974 Dalhousie Concession 9A\, McDonalds Corners\, Ontario\, K0G 1M0\, Canada CATEGORIES:Art circle,Open Art Studio END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20261103T050000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20261103T070000 DTSTAMP:20250907T194533Z CREATED:20240624T183413Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250907T194533Z UID:10000724-1793682000-1793689200@meraschoolhouse.org SUMMARY:Closed for Cleaning DESCRIPTION: URL:https://meraschoolhouse.org/event/closed-for-cleaning-53/2026-11-03/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20261103T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20261103T150000 DTSTAMP:20251007T183337Z CREATED:20240624T183413Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251007T183337Z UID:10000855-1793710800-1793718000@meraschoolhouse.org SUMMARY:Pottery Studio DESCRIPTION:Meeting Space: Pottery Studio (basement) \nContact Person: Lyndal Neelin \nWe are a joyful group of potters who share space\, tools and experience in the basement of the MERA schoolhouse.
