The Hopkinton Center for the Arts presents “Stories and Songs” on Friday, April 4, from 8-10 p.m. This special event is presented by the 26.2 Foundation and the HCA and supported by premiere sponsor Dell Technologies. Set against the backdrop of the Boston Marathon, five marathoners will take the stage to share their personal stories of triumph, resilience and the power of the human spirit, all paired with a song played by Hopkinton’s own Hot Acoustics. Tickets are $35. For more information, visit hopartscenter.org/events.
