SUMMARY:PERSONAL PROBLEMS\, streaming at Rivertown Film
DESCRIPTION:Defying the racially exclusive Hollywood studio system\, novelist Ishmael\nReed\, Rockland County director Bill Gunn and a renegade group of artists\nbanded together to make a “meta soap opera” about the struggles of a\nworking class couple in New York City in 1980. They illuminated Black\nreality and soap opera banality through the story of a nurse’s aid and her\nhusband\, leading us through the stresses of their lives. “With a\nFassbinderian flair for color and a neorealist’s eye for composition…\nGunn spins a potent ensemble drama from his modest domestic\nmilieu.”—Hollywood Reporter. USA\, 1980\, 165 minutes. Zoom discussion with\ncast and crew members Sam Waymon and Marshall Johnson\, moderated by Bill\nBatson\, on 2/21.\nPersonal Problems was produced on 3/4” videotape in 1980 and was shown once\non PBS. It was rediscovered in 2015 and restored\, but the master tapes were\ntoo badly degraded to bring them up to modern video standards.\n“George Bernard Shaw said that “If you do not tell your stories others will\ntell them for you and they will vulgarize and degrade you.” With few\nexceptions\, this expression can be applied to Hollywood’s treatment of\nBlacks from the creation of the industry to now.” – Personal Problems\nwriter\, Ishmael Reed\n“Personal Problems is among those rare\, quietly unassuming avant-garde\nworks that takes the trouble to be genuinely entertaining while pushing\nformal and textual boundaries.” —Film Comment

SUMMARY:Photo Exhibit: 82 Pieces of '82: Main Street\, Nyack
DESCRIPTION:82 Pieces of ’82\nMain Street\, Nyack\nPhotos by Brad Hess\nThe Historical Society of the Nyacks\n50 Piermont Avenue\n \nThe exhibit will be open Saturdays from 1 – 4 January 21st through April 15th\nIn 1982\, photographer Brad Hess walked Main Street in Nyack every Sunday morning\, taking over 3\,000 black and white photographs. Trying out a new film\, he decided Main Street was where he would experiment with it. As the images emerged from his dark room\, he became fascinated with the quality of the film as well as the opportunities Main Street offered him. He returned nearly every Sunday morning for the next year\, walking from 9W to the riverfront.\n \n82 Pieces of ’82\, Main Street\, Nyack will be our first traditional “opening” since COVID. Please join us in thanking Brad for sharing his amazing work with us\, and hearing what he has to say about these street scenes and their meaning for Nyack. We look forward to your questions\, feedback and commentary. Brad will have the floor around 1:30. Please come masked – we want to minimize everyone’s exposure to our current variant with its high transmission potential. And for that reason also\, our refreshments are very minimal.\n

SUMMARY:The Enchanted Garden: Colors in Motion - Sculptures by Dorothy Gillespie
DESCRIPTION:The Enchanted Garden: Colors in Motion\nSculptures by Dorothy M. Gillespie\nThe Catherine Konner Sculpture Park\nOct. 15\, 2021 – Oct. 2023\nFree to the Public\, Dawn to Dusk\nRoCA is proud to present the The Enchanted Garden: Colors in Motion exhibit as a part of a tribute to the 20th Century artist and feminist\, Dorothy Gillespie. The exhibit will open October 15th in The Catherine Konner Sculpture Park at RoCA.\nDorothy Gillespie’s joyful and brilliantly colored starbursts glimmer hanging from the trees as well as lining the pathway. The pieces create an enchanted garden of colors in motion. Though stationary they seem to possess a kinetic quality. Two larger pieces can be seen at the entry to RoCA. The exhibit was partially installed this summer and will be completed for exhibit October 15th. The exhibit will remain on display through October 2023.\nGillespie (1920-2012) was born in Roanoke\, VA and lived in Nyack during the later years of her life. She pioneered joyful\, new directions of metal sculpture and is best known for large-scale\, colorfully painted arrangements of cut aluminum strips curling\, radiating\, or undulating in giant arrangements of ribbons\, enchanted towers\, or bursting fireworks. She was well known as a painter\, sculptor and installation artist whose work incorporated many significant 20th-century trends in art.\nDuring Dorothy Gillespie’s youth … “girls did not attend art school\, at least not ‘nice’ girls\,” said Gillespie in 2010. Nevertheless\, she was determined to be an artist and attended the Maryland Institute College in Baltimore. She was more fortunate than women sculptors in the 19th Century who were mostly hired as studio assistants by established male sculptors with few exhibitions. Harriet Hosmer\, Emma Stebbins\, Edmonia Lewis\, Frances Grimes and Helen Mears were some of the few who made names in the arts as women during that time. They did not pursue monumental work as frequently as men did and mostly produced works in bronze and consistent middle-class demand for small-scale sculpture to decorate the home and garden. Today many more women are now entering traditional male dominated sculpture roles in metal\, wood and stone\, thanks to the pioneering activism of women like Dorothy Gillespie in the 20th century.\nAn influential force in the women’s movement\, Gillespie encouraged more women’s art in museums and art in public spaces. In 1970\, Gillespie joined Women in the Arts and created picket signs protesting at the Whitney Museum demanding that the curators choose more women artists for their “Annual exhibition. The demonstration worked\, and more women artists were chosen for the show. Although the increase was very slow\, over time it increased from 8 percent to 40 percent. Gillespie was the Founder of the Women Artists Historical Archives of the Women’s Interart Center in NY\, NY\, filming and taping interviews of some of the most important women artists of the 20th century as well as presenting her own radio show. Gillespie along with Joyce Weinstein founded a group called the NY Professional Women Artists. The 14 members lectures at Universities and wrote articles to encourage other women artists.\nGillespie also coordinated a course to educate and enlighten women in the visual arts\, after being invited to teach at The New School in NYC. The intent was to prepare women for a new\, more aggressive role to function in the art world. Due to her already busy schedule\, she asked artist Alice Barber to share the task of revealing to the young students the ‘system’ that drove the NY art world and how to succeed. In 1974 she organized an innovative outdoor exhibition\, Walk Through Art\, mounted in Central Park\, Battery Park\, and Rockefeller Center\, then travelling to fifty colleges\, universities and street fairs. Compelled to involve viewers in her work\, she created large 7 ft high triangles of art for people to walk through the sculptures. Gillespie has held positions of designing programs as a Professor of Art\, being a Board of Trustees for more than one college or art center\, as a visiting artist in residency and as the Chairperson of the Fine Arts Committee for the International Women’s Art Festival.\nDorothy Gillespie’s career spanned seven decades\, always at the forefront of the American Art movement. She studied at the Maryland Institute College in Baltimore before moving to New York City\, where she studied at the Art Students League. Her works grace many institutions\, museums\, colleges\, universities and public spaces\, including the permanent collection of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and the United States Mission to the United Nations. She was one of the first artists to offer her art to the world through displays in the lobbies of public institutions and governmental centers such as the Mayo Clinic\, Epcot Center\, Warren Wilson College\, Fort Lauderdale Airport-Delta Terminal\, Fort Lauderdale Museum of Art\, the Miami Public Library\, United States Mission to the United Nations\, and the Court House Square – Roanoke\, VA and Universities across the country.\nAmong her many honors\, Gillespie received the Alice Baber Art Fund\, Inc. Grant Award: a Doctor of Pedagogy from Niagara University in Niagara Falls\, A Doctor of Fine Arts (Honoris Causa) from Caldwell College in Caldwell\, NY\, an Allied Professions Award from the Virginia Society\, the American Institute of Architects in Richmond\, VA.\, the Distinguished Alumni Award from Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore\, the Outstanding Services Award from University of Arkansas at Little Rock\, and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Women’s Caucus for Art\, and the Gala 8 “Distinguished Woman” Award at Birmingham Southern College.\nThe Catherine Konner Sculpture Park is open from dawn to dusk\, free to the public. Brochures can be picked up at the registration desk. For more information visit: www.rocklandartcenter.org or call 845-358-0877.\nThis exhibition was made possible thanks to the generous support of The Dorothy M. Gillespie Foundation and Gary Israel.\nRoCA’s programs are made possible\, in part\, with funds from the New York State Council on the Arts\, with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature. Funding is also made possible by the County of Rockland.\nRoCA gratefully acknowledges support for its programs from The Richard Pousette-Dart Foundation\, M&T Bank\, The M&T Charitable Foundation\, The Dorothy Gillespie Foundation\, Peter & Rebecca Lang\, Kantrowitz\, Goldhamer & Graifman P.C.\, Luxury Kitchen and Bath\, Golden Artist Colors\, Inc.\, QuietEvents\, the Estate of Joan Konner\, Lighting Services Inc.\, Sarah and Stephen Thomas\, the Mark and Jessie Milano Foundation\, Zaklin Family Charitable Fund\, The County of Rockland\, Simona and Jerome Chazen\, Art Services Group\, RoCA members\, donors and business members.

SUMMARY:Edward Hopper's Hudson River Boyhood and Emerging Artistic Vision
DESCRIPTION:Curated by Carole Perry and Kathleen Motes Bennewitz\, with Lynne Z.

SUMMARY:The Enchanted Garden: Colors in Motion - Sculptures by Dorothy Gillespie
DESCRIPTION:The Enchanted Garden: Colors in Motion\nSculptures by Dorothy M. Gillespie\nThe Catherine Konner Sculpture Park\nOct. 15\, 2021 – Oct. 2023\nFree to the Public\, Dawn to Dusk\nRoCA is proud to present the The Enchanted Garden: Colors in Motion exhibit as a part of a tribute to the 20th Century artist and feminist\, Dorothy Gillespie. The exhibit will open October 15th in The Catherine Konner Sculpture Park at RoCA.\nDorothy Gillespie’s joyful and brilliantly colored starbursts glimmer hanging from the trees as well as lining the pathway. The pieces create an enchanted garden of colors in motion. Though stationary they seem to possess a kinetic quality. Two larger pieces can be seen at the entry to RoCA. The exhibit was partially installed this summer and will be completed for exhibit October 15th. The exhibit will remain on display through October 2023.\nGillespie (1920-2012) was born in Roanoke\, VA and lived in Nyack during the later years of her life. She pioneered joyful\, new directions of metal sculpture and is best known for large-scale\, colorfully painted arrangements of cut aluminum strips curling\, radiating\, or undulating in giant arrangements of ribbons\, enchanted towers\, or bursting fireworks. She was well known as a painter\, sculptor and installation artist whose work incorporated many significant 20th-century trends in art.\nDuring Dorothy Gillespie’s youth … “girls did not attend art school\, at least not ‘nice’ girls\,” said Gillespie in 2010. Nevertheless\, she was determined to be an artist and attended the Maryland Institute College in Baltimore. She was more fortunate than women sculptors in the 19th Century who were mostly hired as studio assistants by established male sculptors with few exhibitions. Harriet Hosmer\, Emma Stebbins\, Edmonia Lewis\, Frances Grimes and Helen Mears were some of the few who made names in the arts as women during that time. They did not pursue monumental work as frequently as men did and mostly produced works in bronze and consistent middle-class demand for small-scale sculpture to decorate the home and garden. Today many more women are now entering traditional male dominated sculpture roles in metal\, wood and stone\, thanks to the pioneering activism of women like Dorothy Gillespie in the 20th century.\nAn influential force in the women’s movement\, Gillespie encouraged more women’s art in museums and art in public spaces. In 1970\, Gillespie joined Women in the Arts and created picket signs protesting at the Whitney Museum demanding that the curators choose more women artists for their “Annual exhibition. The demonstration worked\, and more women artists were chosen for the show. Although the increase was very slow\, over time it increased from 8 percent to 40 percent. Gillespie was the Founder of the Women Artists Historical Archives of the Women’s Interart Center in NY\, NY\, filming and taping interviews of some of the most important women artists of the 20th century as well as presenting her own radio show. Gillespie along with Joyce Weinstein founded a group called the NY Professional Women Artists. The 14 members lectures at Universities and wrote articles to encourage other women artists.\nGillespie also coordinated a course to educate and enlighten women in the visual arts\, after being invited to teach at The New School in NYC. The intent was to prepare women for a new\, more aggressive role to function in the art world. Due to her already busy schedule\, she asked artist Alice Barber to share the task of revealing to the young students the ‘system’ that drove the NY art world and how to succeed. In 1974 she organized an innovative outdoor exhibition\, Walk Through Art\, mounted in Central Park\, Battery Park\, and Rockefeller Center\, then travelling to fifty colleges\, universities and street fairs. Compelled to involve viewers in her work\, she created large 7 ft high triangles of art for people to walk through the sculptures. Gillespie has held positions of designing programs as a Professor of Art\, being a Board of Trustees for more than one college or art center\, as a visiting artist in residency and as the Chairperson of the Fine Arts Committee for the International Women’s Art Festival.\nDorothy Gillespie’s career spanned seven decades\, always at the forefront of the American Art movement. She studied at the Maryland Institute College in Baltimore before moving to New York City\, where she studied at the Art Students League. Her works grace many institutions\, museums\, colleges\, universities and public spaces\, including the permanent collection of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and the United States Mission to the United Nations. She was one of the first artists to offer her art to the world through displays in the lobbies of public institutions and governmental centers such as the Mayo Clinic\, Epcot Center\, Warren Wilson College\, Fort Lauderdale Airport-Delta Terminal\, Fort Lauderdale Museum of Art\, the Miami Public Library\, United States Mission to the United Nations\, and the Court House Square – Roanoke\, VA and Universities across the country.\nAmong her many honors\, Gillespie received the Alice Baber Art Fund\, Inc. Grant Award: a Doctor of Pedagogy from Niagara University in Niagara Falls\, A Doctor of Fine Arts (Honoris Causa) from Caldwell College in Caldwell\, NY\, an Allied Professions Award from the Virginia Society\, the American Institute of Architects in Richmond\, VA.\, the Distinguished Alumni Award from Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore\, the Outstanding Services Award from University of Arkansas at Little Rock\, and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Women’s Caucus for Art\, and the Gala 8 “Distinguished Woman” Award at Birmingham Southern College.\nThe Catherine Konner Sculpture Park is open from dawn to dusk\, free to the public.

SUMMARY:New Voices:  Rockland’s Next Art Generation
DESCRIPTION:New Voices: Rockland’s Next Art Generation\nFebruary 19 – April 1\, 2023\nOpening Reception: Sunday\, February 19\, 2pm – 5pm\nFree to the Public\nPlease join Rockland Center for the Arts for New Voices: Rockland’s Next Art Generation\, opening Sunday\, February 19th from 2-5pm.  During RoCA’s 75th Anniversary\, in 2022\, it presented Rockland’s Women of South Mountain Road.  These women had achieved national and international notoriety in their various fields.  We are excited to start off our 76th exhibition year by presenting some of the younger talent in Rockland\, as part of the next art generation.  Artists are Nina Berlingeri\, Joel Blenz\, Matt Casanova\, Danielle McDonald\, Alice Mizrachi\, and Nate Singer.\nNina Berlingeri has solidly planted roots in Rockland’s art scene through a 2014 artist residency at the Arts Students League of New York’s Vaclav Vytlacil studios.  She was then awarded the first Edward Hopper House Fellow of Creative Community Outreach for a 2018 artist residency.  Further developing her public youth arts programs\, “The Nighthawks” connecting local high school students with artworks\, and artists with ways to develop and refine their own creative practice.  Berlingeri was awarded the Emeritus Award for Historic Site Stewardship from the National Trust for Historic Preservation in 2018 on behalf of the museum.  Berlingeri’s bold figurative work mirrors her life and the ongoing resonance between her experiences and environment. The deconstruction\, distortion\, and reinstitution of the figure is regularly evolved through creating a series of multiples- each derived directly from the previous.  This enables the distortion of the form to remain malleable and retain its immediacy.  Her current work has maintained the focus of the figure\, most recently through the lens of reflective self-portraits.\nJoel Blenz’s abstract\, mixed media artworks play with perception.  His work is an examination of the subcultural and natural decayed outdoor surfaces\, recreating beautiful textured and blended surfaces into his paintings.  He retains the grime\, grit\, and detritus of a street aesthetic through his manipulation of surfaces.  A studio practice has allowed for an exploration of an endless amount of layering and drying time in his painting process.  Each piece provides an interactive experience for the viewer.  When walking back and forth in front of the work\, colors shift and fade creating an illusion that confounds the viewer.  He is intrigued with the power of messages in public spaces and how advertising has an impact on our psyche.  He consciously makes an effort to create more positivity in this visual landscape by focusing his public art on uplifting and positive messages for the community.  His current work is an ongoing exploration of the ambiguous space that graffiti now occupies as both an outsider art form and a legitimate player in the contemporary world.  Blenz’s current work has been featured in exhibitions for Pop Up MoMA\, New York\, Gallery Guichard in Chicago\, IL\, Scope Art Fair and Graffiti Gardens in Miami FL during Art Basel.\nMatt Casanovas’ main focus is on the narrative – collecting from folklore\, sentimental memories\, and present day stories to create a timelessness through unbounded mediums in painting and printmaking.  He pulls the emphatic expressions of both body and sentiment from vintage film promotions as well as stories\, and applies them to a contemporary vantage point using materials and techniques of the old masters.  Casanovas has exhibited his work at the Garnerville Art Center\, Garnerville\, NY\, Sullivan Galleries\, Chicago\, IL and Siragusa Gallery\, Chicago\, IL\nDanielle McDonald uses a process of illustration\, a system of collecting\, deconstructing and reassembling images or fragments of moments preserved and composed in the mind.  These images are concrete\, symbolic and abstracts parts of life.  She plays with scale and perspective to visually imagine the way we prioritize and compose moments in the mind.  Parts of stories and images are weaved together\, consciously and subconsciously\, helping us to make sense of relating and connecting to others.  McDonald is a public school teacher and community worker.  She has collaborated with schools\, shelters\, cultural institutions\, universities\, facilities for incarcerated teens\, Groundswell and designed mural walls throughout Philadelphia and New York City\, designed sets for Opera Delaware and small independent films.\nAlice Mizrachi is a mixed media muralist\, fine artist\, educator\, and curator.  Grounded in deep compassion for the human experience across borders\, Mizrachi explores both the spiritual and physical dimensions of being human\, and in particular\, female.  Mizrachi’s intentions include the empowerment of self and others through artistic expression\, as well as advocacy for women\, youth\, and the environment.  Family\, community\, and tribe are also recurring themes and are approached as active spaces of shared engagement through her mural making.  Her studio practice has developed into a testing ground for explorations in assemblage\, sculpture\, and installation that has transformed both her painting practice and her work as a muralist.  Her spontaneous approach to line\, and the deconstruction and reconstruction of figurative elements in her assemblage and ceramic sculpture\, reveal a human hand in the making of her work\, an intentional maneuver in an increasingly technological age.  Mizrachi’s work has been featured in the Museum of the City of New York\, the National Museum of Women in the Arts and Albright-Knox Museum.\nNate Singer is a mixed media artists working in ink\, paint\, sculpture and film.  His interest in organic matter led to an intimate understanding of the underlying systems of embedded geometrics within organic matter. At once energetic and poised\, Singer’s abstract paintings and ink drawings use saturated\,  hard-edged shaped and intuitive calligraphic marks to create compositions that resemble organic growth while reveling in technical orchestration.  He has exhibited at Garnerville Art Center\, Saratoga Arts Center\, and Union College with an art residency at Salem Art Works.  He has been awarded a Hilda A. Colish Sculpture Award and a NY6 Think Tank Grant.\nPlease join Rockland Center for the Arts for New Voices: Rockland’s Next Art Generation.  The exhibit opens with an artist reception on Sunday\, Feb. 19th\, 2:00pm – 5:00pm.  The exhibit will be on view through April 1st\, open Mondays – Saturdays 11am – 4pm\, (closed Sundays).  Free to the Public (masks encouraged).  Also on view in Gallery One\, Window into Color: Works by Art Gunther\, works inspired by the light of the Edward Hopper House Museum and Study Center and by the realist painter himself.  Art-ifacts: Works by William Rauschenberg on view in Gallery Two.  Rauschenberg uses the lost art of sand casting to create three dimensional puzzle like pieces.  For more information call (845) 358-0877 or visit www.rocklandartcenter.org.\n RoCA gratefully acknowledges support for its programs from The Rea Charitable Trust\, ArtsWestchester\, Sarah and Stephen Thomas\, The Richard Pousette-Dart Foundation\, M&T Bank\, The M&T Charitable Foundation\, The Dorothy Gillespie Foundation\, Walter Cain & Paulo Ribeiro\, Kantrowitz\, Goldhamer & Graifman P.C.\, QuietEvents\, the Estate of Joan Konner\, Lighting Services Inc.\,\, the Mark and Jessie Milano Foundation\, Zaklin Family Charitable Fund\, The County of Rockland\, Art Services Group\, RoCA members\, donors and business members.\nRoCA’s programs are made possible\, in part\, with funds from the New York State Council on the Arts\, with the support of Governor Kathy Hochul and the New York State Legislature.

SUMMARY:Post-Impressionism In Its Own Right: Online Class
DESCRIPTION:Join Jill Kiefer\, Ph.D. as she leads her Online Course series for BAC entitled: “Post-Impressionism In Its Own Right” for 6 Tuesdays\, 02/21-03/28\, 2023 from 10 – 11 AM. \nDiscussions of Post-Impressionism are often limited to its relationship with Impressionism. But this diverse and distinctive movement stands very much on its own—having traveled quite different paths than those explored by the Impressionists. Indeed\, Post-Impressionism embraced the past\, the present\, and the future—and its influence remains a force today. \nIn this program\, we’ll focus on the key Post-Impressionists (Seurat\, Cézanne\, Van Gogh and Gauguin) to examine their unique achievements. Which ones most avidly pursued symbolic and subjective meanings in their art? How and why did structure\, optics and order become the obsession of others? In what ways did their combined efforts and aesthetic visions define what would become the modern idiom? Join us as we seek the answers to these questions\, and identify how Post-Impressionism fits into the broad tapestry that is art history.

SUMMARY:The Enchanted Garden: Colors in Motion - Sculptures by Dorothy Gillespie
DESCRIPTION:The Enchanted Garden: Colors in Motion\nSculptures by Dorothy M. Gillespie\nThe Catherine Konner Sculpture Park\nOct. 15\, 2021 – Oct. 2023\nFree to the Public\, Dawn to Dusk\nRoCA is proud to present the The Enchanted Garden: Colors in Motion exhibit as a part of a tribute to the 20th Century artist and feminist\, Dorothy Gillespie. The exhibit will open October 15th in The Catherine Konner Sculpture Park at RoCA.\nDorothy Gillespie’s joyful and brilliantly colored starbursts glimmer hanging from the trees as well as lining the pathway. The pieces create an enchanted garden of colors in motion. Though stationary they seem to possess a kinetic quality. Two larger pieces can be seen at the entry to RoCA. The exhibit was partially installed this summer and will be completed for exhibit October 15th. The exhibit will remain on display through October 2023.\nGillespie (1920-2012) was born in Roanoke\, VA and lived in Nyack during the later years of her life. She pioneered joyful\, new directions of metal sculpture and is best known for large-scale\, colorfully painted arrangements of cut aluminum strips curling\, radiating\, or undulating in giant arrangements of ribbons\, enchanted towers\, or bursting fireworks. She was well known as a painter\, sculptor and installation artist whose work incorporated many significant 20th-century trends in art.\nDuring Dorothy Gillespie’s youth … “girls did not attend art school\, at least not ‘nice’ girls\,” said Gillespie in 2010. Nevertheless\, she was determined to be an artist and attended the Maryland Institute College in Baltimore. She was more fortunate than women sculptors in the 19th Century who were mostly hired as studio assistants by established male sculptors with few exhibitions. Harriet Hosmer\, Emma Stebbins\, Edmonia Lewis\, Frances Grimes and Helen Mears were some of the few who made names in the arts as women during that time.

SUMMARY:Edward Hopper's Hudson River Boyhood and Emerging Artistic Vision
DESCRIPTION:Curated by Carole Perry and Kathleen Motes Bennewitz\, with Lynne Z. Bassett\nThis exhibition investigates how the artistic vision of Edward Hopper (1882-1967) coalesced during his youth in Nyack until he moved away in 1908\, at age 26\, to pursue his career in New York City. It features selections of the artist’s early drawings and sketches on loan from the Whitney Museum of American Art\, private collections and the Arthayer R. Sanborn Hopper Collection Trust\, as well as school notebooks\, artmaking materials\, and costumes\, memorabilia\, and artworks by Hopper and family members from the Edward Hopper House Museum’s collection and its Sanborn-Hopper Family Archive. Together\, these objects provide a glimpse into Hopper’s early years\, the influence of his boyhood proximity to the busy waterfront and commercial district of his hometown\, and insights into his life at home and his family’s support of his developing talent and ambitions.\n$10 Non-Members\n$8 Seniors\nMembership checked at door\nExhibit runs from November 3\, 2022-March 26\, 2023 during the Hopper House’s regular hours\, which are as follows:\nThursdays 1pm-5pm\nFridays 1pm-5pm\nSaturdays 12pm-5pm\nSundays 12pm-5pm

SUMMARY:The Irish Comedy Tour
DESCRIPTION:THE IRISH COMEDY TOUR Returns this February! \nThe Irish Comedy Tour takes the party atmosphere of a Dublin pub and combines it with a boisterous\, belly-laugh band of hooligans. \nThe group’s comedians and musicians\, whose ancestors hail from the Emerald Isle\, include Detroit native Derek Richards; Washington D.C. born Patrick Garrity; Ohio’s Michael Malone; Nova Scotia’s Damon Leibert; and from Inchicore\, a suburb of Dublin\, Ireland Derrick Keane. \nAudiences howl at Richards’ tales about his child free existence\, living in Las Vegas and his blue collar upbringing . He has appeared on Amazon Prime\, The Bob & Tom Show\, SiriusXM\, and The Weather Channel’s Top 10. He just released his fourth album\, Double Down\, available on iTunes\, Spotify and Soundcloud. Leibert’s unique and energetic style of fiddle playing lies somewhere between the driving dance beat of Cape Breton\, and the lyrical music of Ireland. His power packed performance adds an incredible dimension to the show. Keane\, originally from Inchicore\, Derrick first distinguished himself musically when the duo in which he sang and played swept the All Ireland Talent Competition. His band\, Inchicore\, sets the gold standard for the Irish music scene in New England and across North America. A brilliant voice and razor sharp wit make him a huge hit on the tour. Garrity is known for his constant road schedule appropriately dubbed\, The Never Ending Tour. This 20 year comedy veteran brings his hilarious observations and impressions to the stage. He’s a favorite from coast to coast and across the border in Canada. And finally\, Malone\, with his blistering humor that focuses on breaking down the idiotic ways we deal with life\, death\, love\, and grief. An absolute hammer of a comedian seen on Fox\, Comedy Central\, Showtime and HULU. Watch his special\, Laugh After Death. \nDon’t miss these hilarious Irish American comedians as they tear apart as well as validate all of the Irish myths and stereotypes.

SUMMARY:Photo Exhibit: 82 Pieces of '82: Main Street\, Nyack
DESCRIPTION:82 Pieces of ’82\nMain Street\, Nyack\nPhotos by Brad Hess\nThe Historical Society of the Nyacks\n50 Piermont Avenue\n \nThe exhibit will be open Saturdays from 1 – 4 January 21st through April 15th\nIn 1982\, photographer Brad Hess walked Main Street in Nyack every Sunday morning\, taking over 3\,000 black and white photographs. Trying out a new film\, he decided Main Street was where he would experiment with it. As the images emerged from his dark room\, he became fascinated with the quality of the film as well as the opportunities Main Street offered him. He returned nearly every Sunday morning for the next year\, walking from 9W to the riverfront.\n \n82 Pieces of ’82\, Main Street\, Nyack will be our first traditional “opening” since COVID. Please join us in thanking Brad for sharing his amazing work with us\, and hearing what he has to say about these street scenes and their meaning for Nyack. We look forward to your questions\, feedback and commentary. Brad will have the floor around 1:30. Please come masked – we want to minimize everyone’s exposure to our current variant with its high transmission potential. And for that reason also\, our refreshments are very minimal.\n
