STAGE In the Time of the Butterflies to be staged at SUNY-New Paltz

SHOW

Moby Dick to be performed at Hudson Hall

H Of all the horrific dictators ever to plague Latin America, Rafael Trujillo was arguably one of the worst. Whether as president or behind-the-scenes military strongman, he ruled the Dominican Republic for 31 years with an iron hand. Civil liberties effectively ceased to exist. His personal hit squad roamed the capital, Santo Domingo – renamed Ciudád Trujillo during his reign – in a red Packard nicknamed the “car of death,” carro de la muerte.

A national network of procurers rounded up preteen girls for him to rape. Within one week in 1937, he had his army butcher between 20,000 and 30,000 Haitians in a border incursion known as the Parsley Massacre.

So heavily did he clamp down on any opposition that it took a major scandal to inspire the plot that finally led to Trujillo’s assassination in 1961 (possibly with an assist from the CIA). That scandal was the abduction and brutal murder of three young women: the Mirabal sisters, known by the code name the Butterflies amongst the resistance.

The story of the Mirabal sisters (shown above) has inspired countless works of art in the years since their deaths – the anniversary of which, November 25, has been designated by the United Nations as International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. One such account is Julia Álvarez’s 1994 novel In the Time of the Butterflies. In 2001 it was made into a movie starring Salma Hayek, and now there’s also a stage adaptation by Caridad Svich. That stage version will be the first offering of the 2019/20 season of live productions by the Department of Theatre Arts at SUNY-New Paltz. This fictionalized version of the true story of the Mirabal sisters, who galvanized a political uprising against Trujillo’s dictatorial rule, is directed by Estefania Fadul.

The SUNY production of In the Time of the Butterflies runs from Thursday through Sunday, October 3 to 6 and October

udson Hall celebrates Herman Melville’s 200th birthday and Hudson’s own whaling history with the Irish theater company Gare St. Lazare’s critically celebrated adaptation of Melville’s epic Moby Dick, performed by actor Conor Lovett with musical accompaniment by Caoimhin O’Raghallaigh on the hardanger d’amore fiddle. Directed by Judy Hegarty Lovett, Gare St. Lazare’s Moby Dick premiered in Youghal, County Cork in 2009, and has since toured to Boston, Bristol, California, Connecticut, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Paris, Shanghai, Vermont and to 28 venues in Ireland. “A must-see,” wrote The Irish Examiner.

“Lovett holds us spellbound as he captures the humour as well as the wisdom of Melville.”

Shows take place on the weekend of October 4 through 6.

Friday and Saturday shows begin at 7 p.m., Sunday’s show at 5 p.m. Tickets cost $35.

On Thursday, October 17, Hudson Hall continues its reflection on Hudson’s whaling history with a talk by Carl Whitbeck, Jr. at the Hudson Area Library, located at 51 North Fifth Street.

Whitbeck, a local resident whose family has deep roots in the area, will be displaying and discussing items from his own extensive local history collection. To read more about whaling’s surprising Hudson River heyday, visit https://bit.ly/2kRaNkv.

Colony presents Chris Gethard on Friday and Saturday

A zeitgeist comedian, writer, actor and podcaster for the memoir and confessional generation, Chris Gethard returns to Colony in Woodstock for two nights on September 27 and 28. This is no typical two-night comedy stand: On Friday night, Gethard will deliver a traditional standup set, or as close to it as he is likely to get.

Formerly known as the Civic Center, the Majed J. Nesheiwat Convention Center in Poughkeepsie presents Sesame Street Live! on the weekend of September 28 and 29. All the characters beloved by generations are present and accounted for. When magician extraordinaire Justin visits the neighborhood to put on a magic show, Elmo wants to join in. But there’s one problem: Elmo doesn’t know how to do magic, so he teams up with Justin, Abby and friends to practice his trick while discovering the magical moments in everyday life. Tickets cost $25 and $20, based on location. Saturday shows take place at 10:30 a.m., 2 p.m. and 5:30 p.m., Sunday shows at 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m.

MUSIC Storm Large plays Helsinki Hudson on Sunday Like so many of today’s music stars, singer Storm Large came to national attention as a contestant in a talent t o u r n a ment: the CBS show Rock Star: Supernova.

As has been proven over and over, a late elimination (in Large’s case, the semifinals) can often be a more auspicious career portent than an outright win. Since then, she has diversified, trying her hand at acting, writing and some decidedly non-rock music undertakings, including performances with the San Francisco, Pittsburgh, Houston, Toronto, Baltimore, BBC, Phoenix and Vancouver Symphonies. She made her Carnegie Hall debut singing Kurt Weill’s Seven Deadly Sins with the Detroit Symphony. The somewhat-more-intimate Club Helsinki in Hudson welcomes Storm Large on Sunday, September 29. Ticket prices range from $25 to $38.

John Gorka plays at Unison in New Paltz on Saturday

N

ew Folk stalwart John Gorka graces the intimate space of Unison Arts in New Paltz on Saturday, September 28. The New Jersey native has been making finely wrought, sensitive-but-deceptively-edgy folk music since his 1987’s critically lauded debut I Know. Some 30 years and 15 records later, Gorka released True in Time in 2018: a live-in-studio collection of pithy and concise songs that aim right for the heart. “Gorka is widely heralded for the sophisticated intelligence and provocative originality of his songs,” wrote the Boston Globe. Tickets for this big booking cost $25 general admission, $10 for students, with discounts for Unison members.

John Gorka, Saturday, Sept. 28, 8 p.m., $25/$10, Unison Arts Center, 68 Mountain Rest Rd., New Paltz, (845) 255-1559, www. unisonarts.org

Nesheiwat Center welcomes REO Speedwagon on Tuesday

philosophy of food grows out of basic needs being filled, along with the honoring of traditional tastes and recipes and social customs. Such is the case for Natasha Witka, hometown Catskill woman who brings a Polish theme to her New York Restaurant in the village.

“It has always been a passion for me to be in the kitchen,” says Witka. “I started cooking around five years old, as my mom tells the story. Although I had taken a career path and moved away after college, there was always something about the restaurant industry: the adrenalin, the drive that empowered others, just to have such a team build something. Currently we have 33 employees on our team. I am first-generation from Poland; my parents were both born there. I spent time there

The 100-year-old building housed a restaurant during Prohibition. “There were other locations that we looked at.

But I was from here. I graduated from Catskill High. I found myself coming home every weekend and wanting to be back here. I felt there was a niche that needed to be filled here, as a watering hole in the village proper. This building had been abandoned for almost nine years.

ourscore years ago, Shale Hill Farmsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Pat Reppert threw a promotional event for her little business and the mighty clove that soon grew beyond all imagining. From a couple of hundred garlic-lovers in 1989, attendance at the Hudson Valley Garlic Festival eventually swelled to as many as 40 or 50 thousand. The culinary juggernaut the late Reppert created will soon be back again, courtesy of the Kiwanis Club of Saugerties, propelling the autumnal wave of Hudson Valley foodfests with a pungently aromatic kick.

Expect dozens of vendors of every conceivable variety of garlic and garlicflavored dish (yes, the ice cream is a real thing), plus lectures from chefs and growers, plenty of live music, kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; entertainment and general hoopla. Arm-ofthe-Sea Theater will do a performance; and where else in the mid-Hudson do you get to see Morris dancers?

ton, Saugerties and Rosendale. Time to take a deep dive into this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tantalizing lineup and decide what to see! As usual, there are simply too many choices.

Of the more than 100 â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fiercely Independentâ&#x20AC;? films being screened, 13 are having their world, North American or US premiere at Woodstock.

Perhaps the most headline-worthy of these is Cheryl Horner McDonoughâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s documentary Parkland Rising, which follows student activist David Hogg, artist/ activist Manuel â&#x20AC;&#x153;Guacâ&#x20AC;? Oliver (whose son JoaquĂ­n was one of the Parkland victims) and others connected to the February 2018 school shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High as they build a national movement for gun reform. Parkland Rising gets its world premiere at 9 p.m. on Friday, October 4 at the Woodstock Playhouse, and the post-screening discussion will include Cameron Kasky, Parkland survivor and co-

founder of March for Our Lives. There will be another screening on 3 p.m. on Saturday, October 5 at the Rosendale Theatre. But before either, on Friday afternoon, Manuel Oliver himself will show up in the center of Woodstock to paint a mural at the corner of Mill Hill and Rock City Roads.

Another world premiere launches the Festival at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, October 2 at the Woodstock Playhouse, and in the time-honored WFF tradition, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a documentary about a virtuoso musician, to be followed by a live performance by the filmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s star and other musicians. This year the feature is Tarik Benbrahimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Simon Shaheen: A Musical Journey. Shaheen is arguably the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most renowned ambassador of classical Arabic music: a master of the oud, the 3,000-year-old Mesopotamian stringed instrument that is the ancestor of the Western lute and all its offspring.

408 Main Street, Rosendale â&#x20AC;˘ rosendaletheatre.org

This being a music-industry town, movies about music are an essential component of any WFF lineup, and performances are integrated into several other screenings besides the opener. The world premiere at the Bearsville Theater on Friday, October 4 at 9:30 p.m. of Jason Millerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Not Not Jazz, a documentary about Medeski, Martin and Wood, will be followed by a live drum solo

by Billy Martin. Robert Burke Warren will perform a medley from his David Bowie tribute set before both screenings of Liz Manashilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bowie-inspired, sciencefictionish feature Speed of Life: at 3 p.m. on Thursday, October 3 at the Woodstock Playhouse and at 1 p.m. on Friday, October 4 at the Rosendale Theatre.

The list of music-related festival entries is too long to recite in full, but one documentary that looks intriguing is David Charles Rodriguesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Gay Chorus Deep South, which follows the San Francisco Gay Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chorus as they embark on an activist tour through the Bible Belt in response to a wave of discriminatory anti-LGBTQ laws

Cheryl Horner McDonough’s documentary Parkland Rising, which follows student activist David Hogg, artist/activist Manuel “Guac” Oliver (whose son Joaquín was one of the Parkland victims) and others connected to the February 2018 school shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High as they build a national movement for gun reform.

passed in the region. (Think Green Book, but more woke.) Music will dominate one of WFF 2019’s panel discussions as well: an afternoon of songs and stories with folkie icon Janis Ian at noon on Saturday, October 5 at the Kleinert. (Bring along your best Godzilla-themed haiku, and maybe Ian will feature it on her lively social media feed!) Participants on other WFF panels will include Emmy-winning producer Abigail Disney – who will receive the Festival’s honorary Trailblazer Award – actors Matt Dillon and Tim Guinee and screenwriters Ron Nyswaner and Anya Leta.

As usual, WFF’s documentary offerings touch on many intriguing subjects, from the Apollo Theater to honeybees, Syrian refugees to fly fishing. The great Barbara Kopple has a new doc out, New Homeland, and Ivy Meeropol has helmed a biopic about the government lawyer who pushed for the execution of her grandparents, Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, and later went on to mentor Donald Trump: Bully.

Coward. Victim. The Story of Roy Cohn.

And a documentary that sounds more like a thriller is getting its world premiere: Aengus James’ After the Murder of Albert Lima, in which 13 years of fruitlessly seeking justice for his murdered father forces Paul Lima to travel to Honduras with two American bounty hunters to capture the killer.

WFF has plenty of choice narrative features this year as well. The Closing Night Film, screening at 6 p.m. on Sunday, October 6 at the Woodstock Playhouse, is

Noah Baumbach’s latest opus, Marriage Story. Starring Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson and featuring Laura Dern, Alan Alda and Ray Liotta, it’s getting rave notices from elsewhere on the festival circuit. Randy Newman wrote the score, which may be reason to see Marriage Story all by itself.

The Opening Night Film is Alma Har’el’s Honey Boy. It’s an autobiographical roman à clef by Shia LaBeouf, who also stars as the father of his stand-in character, with Noah Jupe and Lucas Hedges playing his younger self at different ages. Honey Boy screens on Thursday, October 3 at 6 p.m. at the Woodstock Playhouse and again at 9:30 p.m. on Friday, October 4 at the Rosendale Theatre. WFF’s Centerpiece Film is Céline Sciamma’s Portrait of a Lady on Fire, which won Best Screenplay at Cannes this year. A period drama with an all-female cast about rebellious noblewoman and the artist tasked with painting her portrait, it screens at 8:45 p.m. on Saturday, October 5 at the Playhouse and at 5:45 on Sunday, October 6 in Rosendale.

Seven of the movies in this year’s Festival were filmed in the Hudson Valley: The Pollinators, #LIKE, Swallow, Once upon a River, Not Not Jazz, South Mountain and Land of Little Rivers – so pick some of those if you want to be a booster of local filmmaking. And there’s lots more going on at WFF, including programs of short subjects and animation, films by youths and the return of the Virtual Reality Lounge – although this year it has relocated

to the 11 Jane Street Gallery in Saugerties, where you’ll be able to choose from among four different VR experiences. The Maverick Awards – most of the recipients yet to be announced – will be handed out on Saturday evening, October 5 at BSP in Kingston.

Tickets to WFF 2019 are now on sale online at www.woodstockfilmfestival.org, by phone at (845) 810-0131 and at the Festival box office, located at 13 Rock City Road in Woodstock. The box office is open Wednesday through Sunday from noon to 6 p.m. until the Festival opens on October

2, after which it will be open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. (6 p.m. on October 6). For soldout shows, there will be standby lines at the screening venues on a cash-only basis.

GARDEN OPEN HOUSE AND PAINT OUT AT BLITHEWOOD ON SUNDAY

B

ard College hosts a Garden Open House and Paint Out at Blithewood Garden on Sunday, September 29, a part of the 20th annual Hudson River Valley Ramble. Participants are invited to paint, to tour Blithewood Garden and to watch a plein-air painter in action. Coloring books and free refreshments will be provided. Garden tours will be given at 2 p.m. and 4 p.m.

Blithewood’s walled Italianate garden was designed in 1903 by Francis L. V. Hoppin as an extension to the nearby Georgianstyle mansion. Hoppin designed the house in 1900 for Captain Andrew C. Zabriskie (1853–1916) and his wife, Frances Hunter Zabriskie, who owned the Blithewood estate from 1899 to 1951, when their son, Christian Zabriskie, donated it to Bard College.

Bard College is one of more than 150 partner organizations participating in the Ramble. The Ramble provides people of all ages an opportunity to experience the cultural landscape of the Hudson River Valley by hiking a trail, visiting an historic site or paddling on the river. Ramble events are led by naturalists, ecologists, historians, geologists and volunteers.

NIGHT SKY

Is it in your mind?

I

n the 18th and 19th centuries, many scientists regarded the universe as a vast selfoperating machine that had no inventor. Discover the laws of motion, the rules of probability, the nature of the forces that pull and push things, and you could predict everything in the mechanical cosmos.

But the brilliant minds that collectively created and refined quantum mechanics in the early 20th century – Max Planck, Werner Heisenberg, Niels Bohr, Erwin Schrödinger, Wolfgang Pauli, Albert Einstein, Paul Dirac and later Eugene Wigner – all came to realize that there was a big stumbling block to enjoying a strictly objective model with all contaminating human observers removed from the picture. As noted succinctly by Heisenberg, it was that “The transition from the possible to the actual takes place during the act of observation. If we want to describe what happens in an…event, we have to realize that the word ‘happens’ can apply only to the observation.” And an observation, naturally, meant that someone must be present.

But beyond this inarguable truth was the way quantum theory kept showing that at any particular moment, an object like an electron or photon could be a wave or a particle but not both, or could have an up spin or a down spin; and this process of materializing in some way rather than another involved an instantaneous change in its “wave function,” which was regarded as a kind of blurry sense of probability or potential – a strange pre-existence, one that had not yet “collapsed” into an actual item with tangible properties. So the starting-point question of the day was: What causes this wave function to collapse to give the object birth as an actual enduring entity?

The defining factor really seemed to be the presence of the experimenter, the person performing and receiving the measurements. Thus, roughly a century ago, Heisenberg wrote, “The discontinuous change in the wave function takes place with the act of registration of the result by the mind of the observer.”

So, rather suddenly and unexpectedly, the world’s greatest physicists were talking about consciousness, which previously had been a locked-in-the-attic entity that was dealt with only by metaphysicians, philosophers, the clergy and occasionally by the medical profession – and, embarrassingly, by those into pseudoscientific quackery of all stripes.

Nonetheless, at around the end of the First World War, it seemed the entire rhythm section of early-20th-century theoretical physicists was joining the choir in praise of the consciousness motif. “Everything we call real,” said Bohr, “is made of things that cannot be regarded as real. A physicist is just an atom’s way of looking at itself.” Said Pauli, “We do not assume any longer [the reality of a] detached observer, but one who by his indeterminable effects creates a new situation, a new state of the observed system.”

And then came Schrödinger, whose interest in all this went even deeper than the others, to where he perceived a fundamental connection between the basic physics of the universe and the very foundations of perceptual reality: “Every conscious mind that has ever said or felt ‘I’ is [the one who] controls the ‘motion of the atoms.’…The personal

“Everything we call real,” said Niels Bohr, “is made of things that cannot be regarded as real. A physicist is just an atom’s way of looking at itself.”

“The Mystery of Emma Waite” discussed in New Paltz on Wednesday The New Paltz Historical Society welcomes Susan Ingalls Lewis, who will be speaking on “The Mystery of Emma Waite” on Wednesday, October 2. As part of the Society’s monthly presentations, Lewis will consider the “Emma Waite Diary,” a fascinating historical document, written by an African-American domestic servant and hotel cook who worked in Saratoga and New York City. Recorded on the pages of a small, leatherbound, printed daybook from 1870, it chronicles a single year in the life of this otherwise unknown individual.

Illness, injuries, bitter cold, exhausting work, headaches, unemployment, deadening heat and racial discrimination plague Waite’s months in Saratoga. Yet she also receives presents, enjoys parties and dances, goes out with friends and takes part in church excursions.

The most interesting section of the

diary comes in the fall and early winter, when Waite moves from Saratoga to New York City. Working as a day cook, she is free to attend almost nightly lectures and performances, including speeches on women’s rights and spiritualism.

Waite develops an intense crush on Lydia Thompson, the Queen of Burlesque, and the last pages of the daybook are dominated by her passionate desire to see, even stalk, her idol.

Susan Ingalls Lewis is a Professor Emerita of History at SUNY-New Paltz, where she taught courses in both New York State History and Women’s History.

Dr. Lewis is currently coediting a volume of essays, Suffrage and its Limits: The New York Story, for SUNY Press. It tells the story of how women gained the right to vote in New York and what they did with it, as well as explores the unfinished agenda of women’s rights.

Portrait of Niels Bohr in 1935

self equals the omnipresent, all-comprehending eternal self.”

One problem from the outset is that this sort of “all-is-one” paradigm, which was also central to Hinduism and Buddhism, seemed very much to contradict our everyday notions that the world is awash with countless islands of separate consciousness. “That’s a delusion,” insisted Schrödinger in writings that would have provoked applause from the priests of Varanasi. Addressing the universal Western outlook where multiplicity seems obvious, he went on to say, “The plurality that we experience is only an appearance; it is not real…I should say: The overall number of minds is just one. I venture to call it indestructible since it has a peculiar timetable, namely mind is always now. There is only a now that includes memories and expectations.” On other occasions he liked to say, “Consciousness is always singular. The plural is unknown.”

The consciousness infection was seemingly spreading to them all. “I regard consciousness as fundamental,” wrote Max Planck. “I regard matter as derivative from consciousness.”

And the much-later-20th-century quantum geniuses kept up the same chorus. Eugene Wigner, the Nobel Prizewinning Hungarian-American quantum physicist, explained, “It is not possible to formulate the laws of quantum mechanics in a fully consistent way without reference to consciousness.” He later summarized it this way: “The very study of the external world [leads] to the conclusion that the content of consciousness is an ultimate reality.”

Even if we jump ahead to 1964, to John Bell’s famous theorem that provided a mathematical basis for the weirdest, seemingly illogical aspects of quantum theory, we learn that that Northern Irish physicist himself declared, “As regards mind, I am fully convinced that it has a central place in the ultimate nature of reality.” Even closer to the present time, the famed British cosmologist Martin Rees said, “The universe could only come into existence if someone observed it. It does not matter that the observers turned up several billion years later. The universe exists because we are aware of it.”

Well, far out indeed, and it doesn’t much matter if we’re all on board with this. The main idea is that, starting around a century ago, physics took an abrupt turn that started seriously to consider that the material universe alone could not supply the true or complete picture of reality.

ALMANAC WEEKLY

Farrand’s American Landscapes on Thursday, October 3 in Hyde Park.

The film celebrates the legacy, influence and achievement of Farrand, a pioneer of landscape design, told through the career of acclaimed modern designer Lynden B. Miller.

Right next door to the FDR Home and Library in Hyde Park, the regional headquarters of the National Park Service is housed in an elegant 18th-century house called Bellefield, which was remodeled by famed architects McKim, Mead and White for Thomas and Sarah Newbold.

Behind it lies a garden that was created by one of America’s most celebrated landscape designers, Beatrix Farrand (1872-1959).

In an era of garden design dominated by endless rotation of fussy, tender annuals in containers, Farrand joined the likes of England’s Gertrude Jekyll and William Robinson in championing the use of perennial plants in combinations based upon color harmony, bloom sequence and texture, leading to the birth of the mixed border that is standard in gardens today. The celebrated Dumbarton Oaks in Washington, DC is probably the bestknown of the gardens created by Farrand that still survives.

The screening will take place within the walls of the Beatrix Farrand Garden.

Admission is free, but RSVP is required.

TAN DUN CONDUCTS HIS SCORES FOR CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON, HERO & THE BANQUET AT BARD’S FISHER CENTER ON SATURDAY

I

n December 2018, Bard College scored yet another hiring coup in retaining the services of Chinese-born composer/ conductor Tan Dun to become the new dean of its Conservatory of Music. He’s probably best-known in the West for having written the Academy Award-winning score to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000), but Tan is famous throughout the world for a broad body of work that incorporates his grounding in Chinese classical and traditional music with deep knowledge of Western forms, including opera. Besides his Oscar, he has earned a Grammy Award, Grawemeyer Award, Bach Prize, Shostakovich Award and most recently Italy’s Golden Lion Award for Lifetime Achievement, and he has been named a UNESCO Global Goodwill Ambassador.

As a conductor, Tan has led the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, London Symphony Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Orchestre National de France, BBC Symphony Orchestra, Filarmonica della Scala, Münchner Philharmoniker, Orchestra dell’Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and Sydney Symphony Orchestra, among others. He currently serves as the honorary artistic director of the China National Symphony Orchestra. Prestigious musical entities commission him to create original works for various orchestras, and the International Olympic Committee to write music for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. His compositions get premiered by masters of their instruments like Yo Yo Ma, Lang Lang and Sharon Isbin. And they’re known for their innovation; Tan has pioneered a whole new genre that he calls “organic music,” meant to be played on instruments crafted from paper, ceramic or stone.

To put it mildly, Bard has found itself a new faculty superstar. Local audiences will get their first real chance to hear Tan Dun in action on Saturday, September 28 at 8 p.m., when he conducts the Conservatory Orchestra in a multimedia concert featuring excerpts from three classic martial arts movies that he scored: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hero and The Banquet. The featured musicians will be Daniel Phillips on violin, Peter Wiley on cello, and Blair McMillen and Benjamin Hochman on piano. The program, titled A Martial Arts Trilogy, takes place in the Sosnoff Theater in the Richard B. Fisher Center for the Performing Arts on the Bard College campus.

Ticket prices range from $25 to $150, with the top level including entry to a reception and meet-and-greet with the artists.

To order, visit https://tickets.fishercenter.bard.edu/2118/2119. For more information on Tan Dun, visit www.tandun.com.

EVENT

SUNY’S STUDLEY THEATRE HOSTS NEW PALTZ FILM FESTIVAL ON SATURDAY

N

ow in its second year, the New Paltz Film Festival takes place on Saturday, September 28 at the Studley Theatre on the SUNY-New Paltz campus. After a successful freshman campaign in the summer of 2018, with more than 15 short films screened to an audience of over 300 at the Water Street Market, the organizers have moved the event to the larger venue on the SUNY campus. Predictably, submissions have greatly increased as well, topping 100 this year, coming from a wider range of independent filmmakers across the Hudson Valley.

The brainchild of New Paltz filmmaker and general cultural agitator Allyson Ferrara, this free festival aims to create a space in which artists and community can join together. Ferrara’s goal is to grow the festival into a year-round schedule of events.

She took a minute to answer a few questions about the festival, about New Paltz and more: How did you manage to pull this ambitious DIY undertaking together? It’s really impressive.

I started out as a solitary filmmaker and found enough satisfaction in creating my own projects that I would write, shoot and edit. However, three years ago I met Danny Asis, a local composer and filmmaker, who asked me to team up on a project with him and his music partner, Josh Kopit, for a project that involved the both of them and a poet, May Lewis. Danny and I found that we had fantastic creative chemistry and started making a bunch of short films together. I realized that as much as I could do alone, I could do so much more – and better – with a collaborative partner who was on my wavelength. This discovery also led to more of an audience for my – our – art together. Now I had Danny’s audience and he had mine. Collaboration brings forth something that solitary art has a harder time at doing: building an audience, growing your support network and having an accountable buddy to push you further to create.

Danny was right there with me when the idea for New Paltz Film Festival struck me. He was a driving force for me to realize that this wasn’t a silly little dream, but a passion project worth investing in. As far as the financial aspect, we expected to pay this all out-of-pocket because it is something we both really believe in. However, it turns out that it is something that our community also believes in. We reached out to local artists and businesses with our idea, and have found so many supportive people who are behind this project. We believe as it grows bigger, we will have more recognition and have more folks in our community that see this project as sustainable and wish to join us on this journey.

You are well-known to the New Paltz community. Why New Paltz? What’s your story here, and why this great commitment to its cultural life?

New Paltz is so important to me for so many reasons. I have been up here for more than 12 years now, and this is the most potent hub of creativity, support and inspiration that I have found. Everyone in this community is creative. Everyone in this community has been super- supportive. I find now that my favorite bands are local musicians (It’s Not Night: It’s Space, Schmave). My favorite filmmakers are my friends. My favorite painters, collage artists, chefs et cetera are all in this town.

This is the first place where I realized that supporting those that surround you is so potent and cyclical. Big dream goals seem easily achievable in a town like this. I never would have believed a project like this was achievable where I grew up on Long Island. Up here it is. The clothes I wear are from my friends at Crust and Magic, the music I buy is from my friends in local bands, the restaurants I eat at aren’t chains, but local businesses like McFoxlin’s or the Parish and more. I think we are a great example of what is starting to happen in general on a larger scale.
