Musical Bonnie & Clyde at Cunneen-Hackett Arts Center One might not think of the short, violent career of Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker as grist for a stage musical; but then again, one might not have expected the murderous pair to have been glamorized so effectively on the silver screen in the persons of Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway, either.

Touted as “a lovers’ concerto, with solo on Tommy gun,” Bonnie & Clyde, with book by Ivan Menchell, lyrics by Don Black and music by Frank Wildhorn, ran briefly on Broadway in 2011 and copped a few award nominations, including a Tony nod for its rockabilly, blues and gospel-tinged original score.

Now Bonnie & Clyde the musical is coming to the Cunneen-Hackett Arts Center in Poughkeepsie, in a production by the LaGrangeville-based community theater troupe Trinity Players NY, directed by Jovan Bradley. It opens on Friday, October 3 and runs through Sunday, October 12. Performances begin at 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and at 2 p.m. on Sundays. Tickets purchased in advance cost $18.95 for adults, $15.95 for seniors, students and children, and cost one dollar more at the door.

Open House Day at Slabsides

avid Schuyler, author of Sanctified Landscape: Writers, Artists and the Hudson River Valley, 1820-1909, will speak about the shaping of John Burroughs’ nature philosophy and his importance in the quickly changing late 19th century in “The Naturalist’s River” at a Slabsides Day Open House on Saturday, October 4 at 12 noon. The Open House runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Slabsides is the rustic cabin that Burroughs built – partially with his own hands – in 1895. It was in this building that Burroughs wrote some of the essays that made him America’s foremost nature writer of his time, as well as entertaining such callers as Theodore Roosevelt, John Muir, Thomas Edison and Henry Ford, up until his death in 1921.

Designated a National Historic Landmark in 1968, Slabsides is preserved today much as Burroughs left it. Slabs of lumber with their bark still on cover the exterior walls, and the rustic red cedar posts that Burroughs helped set in place still uphold the porch. Inside the cabin, the furniture that Burroughs used (and much of which he made) remains as it was. But to get a good look at the interior, including his writing desk and tools, you have to be there on Open House Day – and that only happens twice a year: the third Saturday in May and the first Saturday in October.

To get there from Route 9W at West Park, turn west onto Floyd Ackert Road (between the Global Palate restaurant and the Post Office), cross the railroad tracks and follow Floyd Ackert Road about a half-mile to the foot of Burroughs Drive. Park there and walk up the hill to Slabsides, or drive up the hill and park at the gateway on the right, walk through the gate (currently being reconstructed) and up the gravel road to Slabsides. For information, call (845) 384-6320 or visit http://research.amnh. org/burroughs/programs.html.

British Car Show returns to Woodstock When it comes to cars, we hear a lot about Detroit, or the wonders of Japanese efficiency. Those claiming to be in the know talk about German engineering a great deal; and there are those who still gush whenever the unique suspension of a Citroën gets talked about, or the quiet purr of Saabs back in the day.

To really get a motorhead or car buff singing, though, many believe that the best trick is to bring up classic British cars, especially of a high-end or sporting variety. And to really get them excited, suggest that they check out this coming weekend’s sixth annual British Car Show in Woodstock on Sunday morning, October 5. In addition to a celebratory Brit air about the proceedings, it will include special “Peace, Love & Lucas” Union Jack tee-shirts for sale (still apt following the recent referendum keeping the actual union intact), along with a rousing New York Conservatory for the Arts musical revue in the Woodstock Playhouse, on whose lawns the whole event unfolds.

As with past shows, this sixth outing of the popular event will draw out loads of keen MGs, Triumphs, Austin-Healeys,

Jaguars and Morgan sports cars from the 1930s, Bentleys and Rolls-Royces, Rileys and ACs, and even Morris Minor Traveler “woodie wagons.” Awards will be given out at 2 p.m.

Fabulous fantasists

Bard hosts Neil Gaiman in conversation with author Audrey Niffenegger

S

uccessfully recruiting Neil Gaiman to join the faculty last year was more than just a brilliant branding maneuver for Bard College; it also pays ample dividends in terms of being able to offer public events with powerful appeal to the superstar fantasy author’s ever-growing fanbase. Despite being blindingly busy churning out new books, short stories and screenplays, doing endless rounds of publicity appearances, literary conferences, sci-fi and comic book conventions and visiting Syrian civil war refugee camps for charity, Gaiman has also agreed to host a series of onstage conversations at Bard’s Fisher Center with some of his most respected colleagues in the fields of speculative fiction and graphic novels.

The series kicked off in April, with Art Spiegelman, the Pulitzer Prizewinning author/illustrator of Maus, joining Gaiman in a decidedly informal, sometimes-rambling discussion about writing and art, history and mythology, media and pop culture and whatever else came to mind. Seated in a pair of ugly overstuffed armchairs in a distressing shade of Howard-Johnson’s-roof orange that looked like they had been liberated from a student lounge, two of the giants

Audrey Niffenegger

behind the graphic novel’s surge of popularity in recent decades chatted as if they were in a friend’s living room and commented on a slideshow of Lorenzo Mattotti’s powerful woodcut illustrations for Gaiman’s new retelling of Hansel and Gretel. It was an enjoyable and memorable evening that packed the house with fans, some of whom had traveled a long way for the opportunity.

More folks who have never set foot on the Bard campus before are likely headed this way for the second installment in the series on Friday, October 3. Once again,

October 2, 2014

GAIMAN’S GUEST THIS TIME will be Audrey Niffenegger, whose first novel, The Time Traveler’s Wife, was a huge best-seller and later inspired a movie

Gaiman will be conversing with a fellow author with a penchant for the fantastic, and once again it will be a bit of a Mutual Admiration Society meeting: His guest this time will be Audrey N i ff e n e g g e r, whose first novel, The Time Traveler’s Wife, was a huge bestseller in 2003 and later inspired a movie that was rather less enthusiastically received.

Onscreen disappointment aside, the tale is remarkable in the fact that it not only manages to add an original STEPHEN DESANTIS spin to the wellworn time-travel subgenre, but also paints compelling, psychologically nuanced portraits of two people in love, Henry and Clare, as they cope with the stresses of a marriage i n v o l v i n g frequent and uncontrollable periods of separation. Henry suffers from a genetic anomaly called ChronoImpairment Disorder, which frequently transports him into the past or future without warning (and without his clothing). In addition to the difficulties, dangers and disorientation that Henry endures on account of the disorder, it also causes Clare to miscarry repeatedly when their fetuses start time-traveling in utero.

The Time Traveler’s Wife is social sci-fi of a high order, as well as a metaphor for the challenges facing every couple where one partner is stationed overseas in the military or is required to travel frequently for work or even just has “commitment issues.” A sequel about Henry and Clare’s chrono-impaired daughter Alba is in the works, to the delight of Niffenegger’s

many fans.

Friday’s conversation will touch on topics including time travel, Doctor Who, graveyards, taxidermy, graphic novels, pictures, books and long-distance romance. Both authors have written hit novels that take place largely in cemeteries and involve ghosts: Niffenegger’s Her Fearful Symmetry (2009) and Gaiman’s The Graveyard Book, which was the first book ever to win the English-speaking world’s two top kid-lit prizes, the Newbery and Carnegie Medals, along with the Hugo Award for the best science fiction novel of 2008. So it’s a fair bet that a mutual fascination with burial grounds will indeed be mentioned.

Less commonly known is the fact that Niffenegger considers herself first and foremost a book artist, which was her field of study at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She has published illustrated novels and comic books, including The Three Incestuous Sisters, The Adventuress, The Night Bookmobile and Raven Girl, as well as what she calls “visual books,” The Spinster, Aberrant Abecedarium, The Murderer and Spring among them. She co-founded the Center for Book and Paper Arts at Columbia College Chicago, where she is a faculty member, and had her first art retrospective in June 2013 at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, DC. Perhaps this Friday’s event will lead to a return visit to the midHudson for a workshop at that hallowed ground of artists’ books, Women’s Studio Workshop in Rosendale?

In a ny c a s e , graphic novels are also bound to be a matter for discussion.

According to the foreword that Niffenegger contributed to Hayley Campbell’s new book The Art of Neil Gaiman, the two have known each other for a long time and share many cultural interests.

And this will not be the first time that they have had an onstage conversation: A similar talk at the 2011 Edinburgh International Book Festival can be seen online in its entirety at www. edbookfest.co.uk/media-gallery/item/ neil-gaiman, if you’d like a preview of what might be expected at Bard. It runs a full hour, but a 17-minute excerpt, in which they discuss the influence of fairy tales on their writing process and Gaiman tells how he came to write his

movie version of Philip Barry’s 1939 play The Philadelphia Story, as he confronts a mansion full of wealthy people gathered for the wedding of socialite Tracy Lord. It’s a fair explanation for why screwball comedies about the often-drunken antics of the filthy rich proved so popular among movie audiences during the Great Depression: They were a lightweight distraction from grim daily realities during those dark times, and a way to indulge in a fantasy of a more luxurious lifestyle for the price of a movie ticket.

Barry wrote The Philadelphia Story specifically as a vehicle for the patrician charms of Katharine Hepburn, and that’s a tough pair of pumps to fill – not to mention the challenge of trying to replicate Cary Grant’s memorable impression as Tracy’s suave alcoholic exhusband Dexter. And the role of Mike won Stewart his only Best Actor Oscar. But the Department of Theatre Arts at SUNYNew Paltz has taken up the challenge: Its production of The Philadelphia Story opened on October 2 and will run again from October 16 to 19, after a hiatus for

the Columbus Day college break.

Brendan Burke, artistic director of Shadowland Theatre in Ellenville, is directing the student cast, among whom there may be the Katharine Hepburns, Cary Grants and James Stewarts of the future just waiting to be discovered.

THECENTERFORPERFORMINGARTS 845-876-3080 ATRHINEBECK For box office and information:

fforts by politicians to entice or intimidate media people, artists, tastemakers and opinion-shapers in order to frame and spin their dirty doings for public consumption are nothing new. In the wake of 9/11 and the passage of the Patriot Act, Bill Cain – a playwright and screenwriter probably best-known for Sounder, who also wrote an episode of House of Cards and happens to be a Jesuit priest – got to thinking about how such scenarios might have played out in past history, and came up with the idea for his play Equivocation, which is coming to the Center for Performing Arts at Rhinebeck on Friday.

Struck by the coincidence that England’s infamous Gunpowder Plot happened toward the end of Shakespeare’s career, in 1605, Cain imagined a scenario in which the Bard, dependent on aristocratic patronage, is pressured by Sir Robert Cecil, close advisor to King James, to write a play that is supposed to become the definitive popular version of how suicide bomber Guy Fawkes and his crew tried to blow up the House of Parliament. In Equivocation, Cecil has ulterior motives: to focus suspicion on the Jesuit priest Henry Garnet as being part of the conspiracy in order to deflect attention away from possible discovery of his own role in the plot as the supplier of the gunpowder.

Called Shag in this play, Shakespeare does a little independent interviewing of the imprisoned plotters and finds the truth to be too nuanced and complicated to make good drama in his usual vein. Forced to choose between art and reality, between his livelihood and his conscience, he soon learns to walk a fine line of “equivocation,” telling the true story symbolically through ambiguous word choice. He is also forced to confront the way that he has emotionally distanced himself from his daughter Judith since the death of his son, her twin Hamnet.

The Rhinebeck Theatre Society (RTS)’s production of Equivocation is directed

by Ellen Honig, and the cast includes Molly Feibel, Harrison Forman, Michael Frohnhoffer, Michael Juzwak, Jeremy Ratel and Lou Trapani. Thanks to generous underwriting by several donors, RTS will implement a “pay-what-you-want” ticket-pricing policy for the play’s two-week run in order to broaden its audience.

“We are eager to bring younger, more diverse audiences to our productions,” says RTS president Andy Weintraub. “Equivocation is the perfect vehicle: It’s fastmoving, witty, full of surprises and deals with contemporary issues such as dirty politics and terrorism.”

The show opens on Friday, October 3 and runs through Sunday, October 12, with performances beginning at 8 p.m. on Thursday, Fridays and Saturdays and at 3 p.m. on Sundays.

John Scofield

My favorite guitarist ever The great John Scofield rejoins John Medeski at Woodstock Jazz Festival this Saturday

H

ere is a story about jazz, rock and jazz/rock. It’s all conjecture and fantasy, but I suspect that there is some truth in it. The occasion of this story is Juice, the outstanding new once-adecade recorded collaboration between the tireless and brilliant guitarist John Scofield and the tireless, brilliant avantgroove trio Medeski, Martin & Wood.

Something important happened to my favorite guitarist ever (and one of my favorite songwriters) John Scofield around 1988. After his three-year stint with Miles Davis early in the decade, Sco churned out what might be described as some notable late-era fusion records, the most highly regarded of which include Blue Matter (1986) and Loud Jazz (1987).

These records sound like what we sound like when we sound like fusion (with apologies to Raymond Carver). It was the fusion born of a generation of Miles alumni in the early ’70s (McLaughlin, Zawinul, Hancock, Corea), caressed to a smooth purr by various 335-slinging Californians and blue-blazer-wearing alto players later in the decade, finally immortalized and euthanized in the TV theme songs of the late ’70s and early ’80s: the fusion of slappy basses, snappy

October 2, 2014

too-tight grooves and chimey keyboards, including the dreaded DX7 piano that always alerts you when there is cocaine around (for what else could make anyone think that was a musically desirable sound?).

Sco’s sidemen on these dates are the usual A-list suspects of the genre, brilliant players all: George Duke, Dennis Chambers, Don Alias and the rest of the cats helping him along with his funkleaning take on the fusion thing. The guitar-playing is intricate and soulful poetry – he simply can’t help that – and they are really good records, but clearly end-of-empire in a way: the fatigued decadence of late Rome. The fusion thing – an uncomfortable-if-not-doomed alliance of prettified jazz harmony, sanitized funk rhythm and unconvincing “rock attitude, man” – was kinda cooked by that time, required to wait out a few (dozen) culture cycles for its opportunities at rebirth and repurposing, which are still slow in the coming, so deep are the scars.

Apparently, it took Sco about five minutes to wake up, rediscover himself and develop a genuine generational voice as a guitarist, writer and ensemble leader that, 25 years later, has lost none of its fertility and relevance. He is in some ways

the Neil Young of the jazz guitar: a deeply expressive, sonically audacious player who is instantly recognizable, both by his default rockish tone (and its toilet-flush stereo chorus variant) and by the longthrow melodicism of his improvisation and the deep physicality of his phrasing.

Something important happened to Sco around ’88. I don’t know what it was, but I do know that the change is foreshadowed, if not formally announced, on his spare and groovy trio-and-quartet album Flat Out, which begins with a telling cover of the Meters’ classic riff tune “Sissy Strut”: Sco dropping fusion’s stiff chops-funk for the loose, spacious and bodacious swagger of the New Orleans Royal Family, and finding that it suited his voice exceptionally well. The next two tracks are some quietly radicalized jazz standards, then onto Scofield’s unfailing pretty, hip and witty originals (I am telling you that this man sits at the same songwriting table as McCartney, in my book). The record doesn’t know exactly what it is, but it is a genuinely exciting confusion of new directions, and it sure grabbed my 1988 ears in a way that they didn’t expect to grabbed by “that fusion guitarist” John Scofield.

And then it’s on. Long story short, the next year Sco abandoned the fusion thing altogether and re-presented himself to the serious jazz world, releasing the exquisite DeJohnette/Haden/Lovano quartet record Time on My Hands: the first of what would become a 20+-yearand-counting run of inspired and timeless jazz sessions. My favorites, for your approval: 1992’s What We Do, a songoriented record on which our hero meets his soulmate in the outrageously groovy and gifted figure of drummer Bill Stewart; next, the dazzling quintet record with the beat jazz legend Eddie Harris, Hand Jive (1993); most recently, with his on-again, off-again jazz trio of Stewart and the ageless bassist/composer Steve Swallow, 2007’s brilliant folk/jazz masterpiece This Meets That. Everything else is good too.

Truly can’t go wrong with this guy.

Meanwhile…in the early ’90s, while Scofield was building a jazz oeuvre of historical significance, headlining a guitar renaissance along with pals like Metheny and Frisell, a certain, New York City-focused segment of the jam and jazz scene was quietly rescuing and rehabbing that original impetus of jazz/rock fusion, clearing out its treacle, slickness and ego problems, rediscovering the Afro in it and reconnecting with the Minimalist avant spirit of Miles Davis’ first forays into rock and funk groove, like On the Corner.

Leading this charge, of course, was the vibrant, organ-fried Medeski, Martin and Wood: the instrumental trio that yoked simply badass groove to a skronky, downtown avant-garde Minimalism and – maybe to the surprise of some, maybe to

their own surprise – scored big-time on the jam scene.

Scofield must have been moved. Still in the middle of his legendary run of jazz albums, he did not tarry. He rejoined the energized new-fusion party, hooking up with MMW for 1998’s collection of Scofield originals, À Go Go – a landmark in the genre – and in the following years recruiting his own band of young studs from the New York jam scene for the highly influential Über Jam. Since then, Sco’s fusion/Minimalist funk releases roughly alternate with his jazz sessions.

Like MMW, he has been embraced and steadily employed by the jam scene, a deal sealed by Scofield’s frequent sit-ins with Phil Lesh & Friends.

Juice sounds like old friends getting after it again, but there is a fresh wind here as well. Past efforts deemphasize tunewriting, Scofield willingly sublimating

HVP opens season with Mahler 5 at Bardavon

HELSINKI HUDSON HOSTS SHEMEKIA COPELAND

L

ast April the Hudson Valley Philharmonic (HVP) presented one of its most ambitious projects ever, a performance of Mahler’s Symphony No. 2, the Resurrection, with augmented orchestra, large chorus and orchestra. This season the HVP opens on October 5 with another Mahler symphony, the Fifth. Music director Randall Craig Fleischer explains, “It was the full emotional and sonic impact that drew me to include more Mahler. We’re really trying to define ourselves and exactly why people come to the symphony. Mahler’s emotive style and the sheer size of his symphonies grab our audience in the gut right out of the gate.”

Many performances of Mahler 5, which lasts well over an hour, occupy an entire concert program. Fleischer decided to add two shorter works. Beethoven’s Egmont Overture is a great opener. But audiences are unfamiliar with the Trombone Concerto of Nino Rota – or, for that matter, with Rota himself. He was best-known for his more than 150 film scores, mostly for Italian films (he was a favorite of Fellini and Visconti) but also for The Godfather. (He also wrote ten operas and many orchestral works.) “We try to feature an HVP musician playing a concerto every couple of years,” says Fleischer. “Brad Ward suggested the Rota Concerto.

It’s a beautiful Romantic Era piece and a wonderful showcase. Brad certainly deserves the opportunity.”

Fleischer had a busy summer, conducting in the Czech Republic and in San Diego, Hartford and Youngstown and making pops arrangements. Now he can settle down to his usual schedule of conducting three orchestras: the HVP, Anchorage Symphony and Youngstown Symphony.

Tickets to the HVP’s season opening concert on Sunday, October 5 at 3 p.m. at the Bardavon 1869 Opera House cost $32 to $54. Student rush tickets are available for $20 on the day of the concert only.

his extravagant gift for melody-writing in favor of hip, very simple lines and rhythmic hooks around which the jam stories are spun. But Juice has some simply lovely songs on it, including writing contributions from all four players.

“North London” hearkens back to À Go Go’s “Green Tea” and to some of Sco’s melancholic, simple tunes from This Meets That. “I Know You” – one

of several tracks on which Medeski (uncharacteristically) plays acoustic piano – is a stunning, purring grooveballad. Other tracks go reggae, go Latin and go the staple New Orleans grooves that have sustained all these careers.

This breathy, warm and spacious record includes a handful of radical covers, including a garagey take on “Light My Fire,” a mysteriously transformed, barely

hemekia Copeland, who plays at Helsinki Hudson on Friday, October 3, has the best sort of blues pedigree. No, I don’t mean that she’s done killed her man, ridden the rails or suffered more than most. She’s the daughter of late blues legend Johnny Copeland, and started recording when she was 19. She has opened for the Rolling Stones, headlined the Chicago Blues Festival, been nominated for Grammies and performed for the Obamas at the White House.

Her style is gutsy, heartfelt and fully evident of why she was dubbed the new Queen of the Blues by none other than Koko Taylor’s daughter. Playing the bearpitlike stage, surrounded by higher tables and seats, at Helsinki Hudson should be a growling, sweat-producing feat not to be missed.

DAN TEPFER TO PERFORM BACH’S GOLDBERG VARIATIONS

W

hen the young French-American jazz pianist Dan Tepfer brought his version of Bach’s Goldberg Variations to the Jazz at the Maverick series in Woodstock last year, this critic viewed the coming event with skepticism. That was before I heard it, and because I hadn’t heard Tepfer’s recording of the music from 2011. The most immediately surprising element of Tepfer’s performance was that he actually played Bach’s music – all of it – and that he played it very well. If it had just been a straight Bach performance, it would have been completely satisfying.

After each variation, though, Tepfer played an improvisation on Bach’s music.

This is actually in accordance with the tradition of Bach’s time, when repeats would be highly altered and embellished in the performer’s own improvisations.

Tepfer didn’t attempt to improvise in Bach’s style. What he played was jazz. But it was excellent, intelligent jazz, and didn’t sound silly, the way most jazz versions of Bach sound to these ears.

Tepfer grew up in France, but his parents were Americans, and he now lives in Brooklyn. “I grew up bilingual, raised in France by an American family,” says Tepfer, “which may explain why I’ve always been much more attached to context than to form, more concerned with what’s being said than the language in which it’s being expressed. As a result, I’ve grown increasingly drawn to exploring different means of expression for my music in order to further isolate the message from the medium.”

Since each Tepfer performance of the Goldberg Variations is different, his playing at the Doctorow Center in Hunter on Saturday, October 4 won’t replicate the exact performance that he gave in Woodstock. But it’s a good bet that it will be just as involving and entertaining.

Tickets purchased ahead (by 3 p.m. on October 4) cost $25 general admission, $20 for seniors and $7 for students. Tickets purchased at the door cost $30 general admission, $25 for seniors and $7 students.

Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock host film/ concert tribute to Mike Bloomfield Mike Bloomfield was a legend long before he was found dead in his car at the age of 37 way back in 1981. He was the young Chicago guitarist who rose up playing with all the true blues legends still around when he was young, became the cornerstone for the first iteration of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, started several of his own briefly-lived-but-influential bands in the late 1960s and dominated one side of the one-off jam album Super Session enough to be still listed in the

CHRISTIAN LANTRY

The Both

I

The Both play Bearsville on Friday

t is hard to write about The Both. The press materials consist mostly of the band’s two genuinely significant American songwriters – smart-pop legend Aimee Mann and the exuberant do-it-yourself smart-punk Ted Leo – making lots of funny jokes without really revealing much of anything.

Leaves it all up to imagination; but there, fortunately, The Both are not that hard to conjure.

We’ll start with Aimee Mann, who emerged from the one-and-a-half-hitwonder Boston band Till Tuesday as a shockingly fully formed songwriter, winning the critical (but only the critical) sweepstakes with her first two solo albums, Whatever and I’m with Stupid. Her songs, at least back then, handled deeply personal materials with a level of dispassionate songcraft (verbal and musical) that could fairly be called clinical or even surgical. Woe to the subjects of her songs, I tell you, woe! Hers is a craft somewhat similar to her SoCal smart-pop scenemates like Elliot Smith, Jason Faulkner and Fiona Apple, amped up by a pretty formidable intellect and historically informed by all the guitar pop that I love: Elvis Costello, XTC, Squeeze and the Beatles at the bottom of it all. Only difference is she gets to work with most of these people because they love her back.

Then Mann famously became the poster child for label neglect and abuses, for the radically mismanaged career, the artist hamstrung by unfortunate legal agreements and absent support. But she has since emerged as the wizened poster child for having a good career anyway, and this might have been her greatest contribution to music history, were her songs and records not so consistently excellent.

At first glance, that policy of career self-determination seems to be Mann’s chief similarity with Ted Leo, the frontman of Ted Leo and the Pharmacists and a music-industry maverick of DiFranconian proportions. But get a little inside the fellow’s large canon of work, and you will soon begin to hear the affinities with Mann, both in his verbal zest and in his surprising way with a tricky melody – especially on the politicized, hyper guitar pop of 2004’s excellent Shake the Sheets. Leo is hot in all the ways that Mann can be brilliantly icy.

This is a fascinating collision on paper. Bet it is going to be pretty great live.

Top 25 Guitarists of All Time by Rolling Stone and other tastemakers ever since. Bloomfield also backed Bob Dylan up when the singer/songwriter went electric at the Newport Folk Festival, but turned down an offer to back him permanently, preferring to stick with the blues.

That all makes Saturday night’s film screening and musical performance tribute to the late guitarist so apt, given that it’ll be taking place at the equally legendary Levon Helm Studios, started by the late drummer who did take up Dylan’s offer way back when. The event will feature a screening of the new documentary film Sweet Blues: A Film about Michael Bloomfield, directed by Bob Sarles, and a musical tribute featuring Bloomfield’s Super Sessions colleague Al Kooper and other special guests, all of whom can list the man as one of their key influences, including the likes of Jim Weider (the Band, Project Percolator), Jimmy Vivino (Conan O’Brien house band, the Fab Faux) and Felix Cabrera.

The screening is scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m., followed by the musical tribute beginning at 8 p.m. The doors open at 6 p.m.

Mister Roper showcases new CD at Towne Crier

Mister Roper, the long-running songwriting and recording duo of Rick Schneider and Eric Squindo, make a sprightly and tender brand of folk/rock mixed up with a moody Americana of Biblical gravity and heft. It is, in other words, music right on topic in the land of Dylan and the

Band; and it is written and executed with both reverence for tradition and the evergreen freshness of some quite capable true believers, helped out by a few A-list friends.

Mister Roper’s eponymous new CD begins with the jaunty, concise pot-stirrer “Sit Down, Kate,� which is elevated – as is much of this fine record – by the wispy organ play of local legend and Bandcollaborator Professor Louie, who coproduced the record. But Schneider and Squindo don’t take long to introduce you to the other dimension of what they do.

Track Two, Schneider’s “Take a Walk (Out in the Light)� is a two-chord soul-searcher that, without a single smack of a single drum, manages to elevate to the realm of the epic across its six moody, layered minutes.

Schneider and Squindo practice the subtle arts of folk narrative and folk symbolism, populating their songs with familiar, plainspoken language rich in evocative natural images and the universal personalities of the folk tradition. Through years on the circuit, both have evolved into earthy, confident and unself-conscious singers as they inhabit these timeless, yearning narratives.

The default vibe is spare, minimal and quiet, which only adds drama to such sonic interlopers as the slide-guitarplaying John Platania that haunts “Does It Hurt� and Professor Louie’s various subtle accents and atmospheres. Legendary rock drummer Gary Burke buoys three tracks here, and local scene stalwart Jason Sarubbi handles the bass with ease and taste, when required. But Mr. Roper unfailingly focuses the listener’s attention on the homely essence of the project – on the earthy, dual guitar-strumming and plaintive singing of Schneider and Squindo, who have stories to tell.

Everything else is effortless and lovely folk milieu. – John Burdick Mister Roper CD Release Party with the Jason Gisser Band, Thursday, October 9, 7:30 p.m., $10, Towne Crier CafÊ, 379 Main Street, Beacon; www.townecrier.com.

Chinese art exhibit at Robert Livingston Estate in Germantown An exhibition of contemporary Chinese art, presenting works by nine master artists born in China, will be on view at the Robert Livingston Estate at Southwood at 726 Woods Road in Germantown from October 1 to 7. “Asian Art on the Hudson� will feature more than 82 paintings, calligraphic works, embroidery and traditional Chinese ink-wash art that are being shown in the US for the first time as a group. The exhibit is hosted by the Chinese Culture & Art International Organization.

China has a long and rich history of artistic cultivation. Its recent economic growth has fostered a boom in contemporary art, enabling new artforms and approaches to arise from a foundation of traditional techniques. By sharing a selection of these innovative works, “Asian Art on the Hudson� seeks to deepen the understanding of Chinese art within Western society.

The Robert Livingston Estate at Southwood has survived for 200 years after its construction, with seven generations of Livingstons having lived on various parts of the estate over more than two centuries. The original home remains intact for visitors to enjoy.

Gallery hours are Thursday and Friday, October 2 and 3 from 12 noon to 3 p.m. and Sunday through Tuesday, October 5 to 7 from 12 noon to 5 p.m. For a private appointment to view the exhibit, call Art & Collaboration at (845) 867-7916. For more information, e-mail Joanna Virello at jvprpr@gmail.com.

Kim Levin discusses use of trash in art at Woodstock Artists Association The Woodstock Artists Association & Museum (WAAM) at 28 Tinker Street in Woodstock will host author, curator and critic Kim Levin in “Talking Trash: Byproducts from the Disposable Century� on Sunday, October 5 at 4 p.m. Tickets cost $8 general admission or $5 for WAAM members.

Levin will talk about the use of trash in contemporary art, touching briefly on the material of trash, which has been used by artists throughout the modern era ever since Picasso put scraps of newspapers and wallpaper into his collages. The 45-minute talk also examines the very process of art criticism, tracing the development of a critical idea. Levin proposes that trash, as the logical outcome of the Industrial Revolution and of 20thcentury Modernism (with its notions of the new, the disposable and the obsolete), is intrinsically related to global issues of production and consumption, ecology, environmentalism and scarcity.

Approximately 30 to 40 images of recent artworks will be shown. For more information, call (845) 679-2940 or visit www.woodstockart.org.

Fairy tale workshop for adults in New Paltz We’ve all got ideas about what a fairy tale is. Most of those ideas are wrong.

Fairy tales aren’t 19th-century YA. They’re not what Disney traffics in. As with so many ineffable, misunderstood things, it’s easier to say what fairy tales are not than it is to say what they are.

But here’s an outstanding statement from someone who knew: “Someday,�

C. S. Lewis wrote, “you will be old enough to read fairy tales again.�

For anyone who would like to begin again, to get a fresh start and fresh understanding not only of fairy tales but also of themselves, Patty Kane Horrigan is offering just such an opportunity on

Columbus Day weekend. The title of her three-day workshop is “Finding Solace and Spirituality in Fairy Tales.� You can get the full lowdown here: http://storybooklives. com/upcoming-events. Check it out. See if you’re old enough to get back to where you once belonged.

This three-day workshop will be held at the Sanctuary at 5 Academy Street in New Paltz from Friday evening through Sunday afternoon, October 10 to 12. Fees are $180 for the full workshop, $150 for Saturday only. A non-refundable deposit of $25 is required by October 3 to reserve a place.

CENTER FOR PHOTOGRAPHY AT WOODSTOCK’S AUCTION

W

hat the Center for Photography at Woodstock (CPW) does – and has done for more than 35 years – is remarkable on a national level, and absolutely incredible for a local arts organization. Year in and year out, it mounts cutting-edge, world-renowned exhibitions that bring what’s happening in photography’s rise to the top of the art world to CPW’s intimate gallery space in Woodstock. It also brings the artists making photography matter so much to teach workshops and lecture on what it is that makes art matter and work for them. The organization supports young artists-in-residence at key moments in their careers, and sustains a fellowship award for key local talents, and, and...

It takes money to support such a large and widening mission to achieve so much, even beyond the various state, national and private grants and partnership funds that CPW’s enterprising and hardworking executive director Ariel Shanberg and Board of Directors bring in each year. That is why the 36th annual fundraising auction and gala, taking place at Saugerties’ Diamond Mills Hotel on Sunday afternoon, October 5, has long been one of the cultural highlights of the Hudson Valley.

People care about the Center for Photography. They care about the way that CPW cares about photography, and all those who cherish art – which is why its big events are so well-attended and, well, just so darned special.

This Sunday, the highly anticipated annual event will include a Vision Award honoring New York Times Magazine director of photography Kathy Ryan: a pioneer at combining fine art photography and photojournalism in the pages of the Magazine, who has worked with the publication for more than 25 years and is seen as one of the world’s top photo exhibit and book curators these days.

The award will be presented to her by top photographer Gregory Crewdson. The awards will be followed by a tribute film to underwater photo legend Dennis O’Clair and his Media276 enterprise.

As for the 36 th annual benefit auction of contemporary and classic photographs, the works up for bid range from pieces by such modern legends as Larry Clark, Larry Fink, Allen Ginsberg, David LaChapelle, Charles Lindsay and Mary Ellen Mark to classics like Margaret Bourke-White, Andre Kertesz, Martin Munkacsi, Gordon Parks, Alfred Stieglitz and Weegee. And with C. Hugh Hildesley of Sotheby’s serving as auctioneer, one had better be careful with one’s paddles!

The catalogue of works is currently up on the CPW website, and online and phone bidding will be available come Sunday.

– Paul Smart Center for Photography at Woodstock’s 36th annual photo auction/Vision Awards Gala, Sunday, October 5, 12:30-4:30 p.m., Diamond Mills Hotel, 25 South Partition Street, Saugerties; (845) 679-9957, www.cpw.org.

of photography at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, who has worked in both documentary and fine art photography since 1960; Carla Shapiro, another multiple award-winner whose series of

photographic and mixed-media works reflect on aging, 9/11, beauty, longing and decay; and Ruth Wetzel, a landscape photographer whose most recent work takes an intimate look at swamps.

There’s a local artist who started his art life up in the Mohawk Valley, continued it at SUNY-New Paltz, began showing around the area and now inhabits New York City. She describes himself thusly: “The artist ezerd crash-landed on Earth many years ago.” She references a broken spaceship. Her résumé includes a starring exhibit at the Pine Bush Alien Fest each spring.

Starting this Saturday, October 4 at the Storefront Gallery in downtown Kingston, ezerd will be on hand with a host of her new robots and robot drawings, all recently released from quarantine, their systems graded to current Earthcompatible standards, as part of her roving Adopt-a-Robot program. Call it “an invasion of intergalactic proportions,” as gallery-owner Nancy Donskoj termed the new “exhibit.”

“Collaborative Art Game” in Kingston

November, including a major presence during the upcoming O+ Festival, came to life over the past year as the two artists “listened to podcasts about Halloween, sharing paintbrushes and eating Cindy’s homemade sandwiches” while making the 52 artworks on classic old gameboards that will make up the exhibit. Hoose and Bunnell worked with found materials and acrylics to create a pastiche of gameful memories and musings, sparked their own creativity using Exquisite Corpse collaborative techniques and even learned to use a chopsaw to make their own frames.

“Hurray for ladies using power tools! It’s never felt so good to make so much noise,” the two note with glee.

“Just as games can serve as a counterbalance to employment, where the worries of competition and promotion can dominate, the playful paintings in this show counteract the creeping contrivance of cultural art. From firehouse bingo to Mah Jongg, games have functioned to educate, entertain, transmit tradition and facilitate human communion throughout history: ‘Your Turn, Dear’ celebrates this ongoing history and longs for a time and place where being social does not involve technology.”

– Paul Smart “Your Turn, Dear: A Collaborative Art Game” opening reception, Saturday, October 4, 6-9 p.m., through November 29, Anvil Gallery, 45 North Front Street, Kingston; (845) 443-4866, www.techsmiths.com/anvil-gallery.

Irritations surface quickly when Mom announces that Dad’s last wish, though he was hardly a devout Jew, was for the family to sit shiva for the traditional full seven days.

Putting the fun back in funeral Strong ensemble cast leavens middling comedy This Is Where I Leave You

W

hat does it say about our times that dysfunctional family comedies have become a freestanding subgenre in the moviemaking universe? Shawn Levy’s This Is Where I Leave You is the second example of such in three years – following Bruce Beresford’s Peace, Love and Misunderstanding – in which Jane Fonda plays a kooky matriarch who oversees a battling clan with superior, Zenlike aplomb and a bit of strategic tinkering, despite the fact that it was largely her own unorthodox parenting that turned these kids into ill-assorted, maladjusted wrecks in adulthood.

The good news here is that Fonda’s character, Hillary Altman, while central to the plot devices that give This Is Where I Leave You structure, is not the film’s primary focus. Based on a novel

by Jonathan Tropper, who also wrote the screenplay, this story of four battling siblings artificially forced to come to terms with one another – and with their own inner conflicts and denials – is told from the point of view of Judd Altman, ably played by Jason Bateman. Judd has just discovered that his wife Quinn (Abigail Spencer) has been having an affair with his shock-jock boss (Dax Shepard) when news comes of his father’s demise.

Driver) join him in running the family business, a sporting goods store. Claiming to be turning over a new leaf while acting every bit as spoiled, infantile and selfindulgent as ever, Phillip shows up with a seemingly sensible new girlfriend, Tracy (Connie Britton), who used to be his therapist. Nobody understands what Tracy sees in Phillip, other than feeling energized by his zany impulsivity.

Childless Paul spends much of the movie dashing out to have sex with his wife Annie (Kathryn Hahn) every time her thermometer suggests that she might be fertile. Annie also happens to be an ex-girlfriend of Judd from way back, and begins giving him the eye as a potential sperm donor once Quinn calls with the bombshell that she is pregnant, by Judd.

In spite of their divorce going forward, Quinn decides not to have an abortion, her previous miscarriage having been the albatross that initially dragged down the couple’s marriage. Meanwhile, another of Judd’s old girlfriends, Penny (Rose Byrne), turns up to join the mourners and admit that she still has a crush on him.

Then there’s sister Wendy (Tina Fey), who seems fairly uninterested in her own two small children and actively hostile to her husband Barry (Aaron Lazar). Turns out that Wendy has never gotten over her high school flame Horry (Timothy Olyphant), who still lives with his mother across the street. Horry’s a stone charmer in spite of the fact that an auto accident when he and Wendy were dating left her physically unscathed, but him with major brain damage, dooming their relationship.

For additional comic relief, we get the wacky young local rabbi (Ben Schwartz), who conducts Dad’s funeral and endures relentless reminders from the Altman clan that their name for him back in their mutual schooldays was Boner.

Got that, mostly? It’s a mixed bag of unhappy young adults whose Venn diagrams overlap in every imaginable direction, whose lives are increasingly filled with complications and most of whom are

With an ensemble cast with strong comedic chops inhabiting this gang of fractious, lovable losers brought together by a death, This Is Where I Leave You is reminiscent of The Big Chill – only a version in which nearly everybody is related, instead of just old college buddies. It’s not brilliantly original, but it’s mordantly funny most of the time, just heartwarming enough not to be a downer without getting soppy, with a script that sounds pretty good and moves perkily along. It isn’t the best comedy that you’ll see this year, but it isn’t the worst either. Your move.

The bohos of Yosemite SUNY-New Paltz hosts New Paltz Climbing Film Festival

“T

here’s a fine line between boldness and stupidity.” So says one veteran climber in the trailer for Valley Uprising: Yosemite’s Rock Climbing Revolution, the centerpiece of the 2014 Reel Rock Film Tour, which visits climbing Meccas all over the country.

It touches down in the shadow of the Gunks, naturally, as the 16th annual New Paltz Climbing Film Festival, screening at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, October 11 at the Julien J. Studley Theatre, located in the Old Main Building on the SUNYNew Paltz campus.

Valley Uprising chronicles 50 years of rock climbing on the cliffs of Yosemite, which drew a motley assortment of largerthan-life characters, rivaling the notorious Vulgarians who first conquered the Gunks’ rocky vertical routes in their “extreme Bohemian” lifestyle and anti-authoritarian attitudes. Touted as “the greatest untold story of American counterculture,” the feature-length movie documents “half a century of struggle against the laws of gravity – and the laws of the land.”

Ticket prices for the New Paltz Climbing Film Festival cost $17 in advance, $20 at the door. They can be purchased in

NIGHT SKY

A strange total eclipse Set your alarm on Tuesday night

O

f nature’s greatest sky spectacles, the total lunar eclipse probably ranks sixth. It does not take one’s breath away like a solar totality, a major aurora display, an exploding meteor or bolide, a great comet or even a rich meteor shower. Nonetheless, it’s quite nice.

We get one every couple of years on average. If it’s cloudy, the clock is reset. Thus, a clear night shouldn’t be wasted if a lunar eclipse will unfold over our region.

The Moon will fully plunge into Earth’s shadow on Tuesday night, October 7. Since the event happens well after midnight, it’s technically October 8. (You can be sure that many will get it wrong, and watch the Moon on Wednesday night, when nothing at all will happen.) So first things first: This is an insomniac event where the action starts at 5:15 a.m., not long before dawn.

The Moon will then be lowish. Observers will need a fairly clear western view. At 5:15 a.m., the first black bite of Earth’s shadow will appear conspicuously on the Moon’s upper left portion. At that point the Moon will be 17 degrees high: not too terribly low.

Earth’s shadow will sweep slowly across the Moon’s face as the Moon sinks lower.

Possibly the best time to observe the event is 6:15 a.m. The Moon will then look deliciously bizarre and almost totally eclipsed. If you own binoculars, point them one Moon-width to the upper left of the Moon and seek out a green star. This should be easy. You will then be seeing the strange planet Uranus. Its green color will provide a dramatic contrast with the coppery-red lunar disk.

Alas, at this point, the Moon will stand only eight degrees high. It will be easily hidden behind hills or trees. So if you want to see this eclipse at its best, you should plan to drive

to where the low western sky is in the clear. Any place that lets you see sunset – that’s the spot.

Some of us can get a low western sky by walking a little in the neighborhood. Others need to drive, and perhaps it’s a long drive.

If you live right smack in the Catskills, or they tower just to your west, you’ll not likely see a low western sky. But from many parts of Saugerties and Kingston, and even parts of New Paltz, the direction is pretty clear. If it is, then watch totality begin at 6:24 a.m., with the Moon a mere seven degrees up.

This is a very cool Full Moon. It would be noteworthy even if it weren’t in eclipse. It’s the Hunters’ Moon – one of only two officially named Full Moons – and it’s just a couple of days past perigee, so that it’s larger than usual. And as the light of dawn brightens, we’ll have this red Moon hanging low in the west just as the red Sun prepares to rise in the opposite direction.

The red, fully eclipsed Hunters’ Moon sets at 7 a.m. That is the same minute that the Sun rises that morning: very symmetrical and cool, though seeing the fully eclipsed Moon set may be close to impossible in the bright twilight. Still, everything unfolding in the previous 100 minutes or so merits setting the alarm – if the weather’s clear.

Farms), based on Vietnamese classic clay pot dishes that have a flavorful foundation of caramelization and fish sauce ($15). “It took me a long time to perfect that sauce,” he says. Clearly, the work paid off. When Chicane tried to remove it from the menu at one point, one customer circulated an actual petition to bring it back.

Spicy crabcakes with sambal tartar ($12) draw raves too, as do fresh summer rolls ($8) and noodle dishes such as ramen. Also look for salads, entrees based on creative interpretations with ahi tuna, shrimp, mussels, scallops or littleneck clams (from Montauk, with tomato-fermented black bean sauce and jasmine rice: $24), seasonal mushroom dishes, tofu and “farm dinners” of special seasonal dinners du jour.

But super-fresh ingredients aren’t the only draw. Chicane’s trips to Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia inform his creations, as well as his own creative vision. “I put my spin on it,” he says, “and take some liberties.”

The lightness of the cuisines helps too. “‘I feel invigorated,’ people say after they eat here, rather than weighed down,” he says. Southeast Asian food is based on “smaller protein portions, herbs and vegetables,” he points out. Lots of fresh herbs are key. Unlike some other Southeast Asian places that skip them, Chicane feels that they are crucial to the flavor of the food and has convinced some of his farmers to grow Vietnamese mint, Thai basil and shiso (perilla) for him.

Why the name Food Studio? “The word ‘studio’ implies something that is constantly changing, that’s creative,” he says. “It’s based on what’s coming in the back door.” He loves the continual dialogue with the farmers and how they often show up at the door with baskets of something exciting for him to try. That flux keeps what he does from getting boring, he says, like it might for a chef who has to cook the same items every night. Certain popular dishes remain available, but 70 percent of the menu changes constantly.

Another reason for the “studio” in the name is that he plans studio sessions “down the pike.” He will invite guest chefs to do stints of a week’s duration. He plans to offer this six times a year, and thinks that his customers – especially the ones who come in often – will enjoy the change.

Chef Chicane, who worked in Boston and southern New Hampshire before coming here, has owned restaurants before, but Food Studio is his labor of love.

The 500-square-foot space was once an art gallery, and it is cozy. But that’s okay with him, as he wanted a low overhead so that he could offer quality food at a fair price.

To that end Chicane did all work on the 22-seat restaurant himself, except the plumbing and electric. He installed the tile and brought in chairs from Hudson antique shops. One table is a longer, communal one, to encourage conviviality.

He painted the restaurant all white, for clean lines, leaving exposed brick and a tin ceiling. “It’s simple, clean and refreshing,” he says, “a convivial joint…a little bit noisy, but it’s a place for people to relax and have fun.”

GARDENER’S NOTEBOOK

Post-puckery perfection Persimmons now reaching peak harvest

I

t’s raining persimmons! And every morning I go out to gather drops from beneath the trees. And every afternoon. And, depending on the wind and the temperature, sometimes early evenings also.

The fruits are delicate, their soft jellyflesh ready to burst through their thin, translucent skins. Most fruits survive the trip from branch to ground unscathed because of the close-shorn, soft, thick lawn landing pad that aw a i t s t h e m .

I pop any that burst right into my mouth, or else toss them beyond the temporary fenced-in area as a treat to my the ducks or to Sammy, my dog, who has developed a taste for the fruit. (The ducks, Indian runners, hardly fly; but Sammy, if he put two and two together, could easily hop the low fence and beat me to the fruits.) Repeatedly gathering fruit through the day is needed to keep ahead of scavenging insects.

American persimmons grow wild throughout much of the eastern part of our country, about as far north as the Hudson Valley. Wild trees bear either female or male flowers. Males, which never bear fruit, can each sire a few females, which are the ones that do bear fruit.

Puckery flavor is the main problem with wild persimmons. They can make your mouth feel like a vacuum cleaner is at work within. All American persimmons elicit that unpleasant feeling until fully soft, colored and ripe; some elicit the feeling, in some measure, even when ripe.

Planting a named variety can spell the difference between a fruit to spit out and a fruit to swoon over. Said variety needs to be one that, besides tasting good, ripens within the growing season and isn’t harvested until dead ripe. (Many otherwise- good varieties do not have time to ripen this far north.) Szukis and Mohler do particularly well here near the northern limit for persimmon-growing, Mohler beginning its ripening at the end of August, and Szukis the end of September. Both varieties ripen fruits over a long period: for a month or more.

One more asset for Mohler, Szukis and some other varieties is that they make males superfluous. They can set fruit parthenocarpically (without pollination) and/or by pollination from their own occasional male blossoms. Most Mohler and Szukis fruits are seedless – a sign of parthenocarpy – but occasional fruits have a seed or two, indicating that some pollination took place.

Once leaves drop from these trees, fruiting is not finished. Ripe orange fruits will cling for weeks to bare branches like Christmas ornaments – although, with time, fruits shrivel and brown, losing their visual (but not gustatory) appeal. Not bad for a tree that needs nothing in the way of pruning or pest control, eh?

a project in itself, entailing removal of the grain from the stalks and then from their husks.

The easiest grain to grow and process on a backyard scale is popcorn, which revels in my soil’s good fertility and moisture. I grow popcorn the same way as sweet corn: in “hills” (which, horticulturally speaking, are stations or clusters rather than raised mounds) with three to four plants per hill and two rows of hills in each three-foot-wide bed, with two feet from hill to hill within each row.

The only down side to growing popcorn on a small scale is the need to keep it away from sweet corn, if you grow that also. Planting sweet corn and popcorn too close to each other lets them crosspollinate, resulting in sweet corn that is less sweet and popcorn kernels that wanly split to exhale steam, rather than blow apart till they’re inside-out.

Even with popcorn grown in sufficient isolation, correct moisture level (20 percent) is what makes for good popping.

I wait to harvest until the ears and husks are dry on the stalks. After harvest, I peel back the husk, leaving a few layers, pull off the browned silk, then tie three or four ears together by their pulled-back husks and hang the bunch from the kitchen rafters to dry.

The ears hang from the rafters all year, ready for popping. When I feel like eating some popcorn, I just twist the kernels off a cob; microwavers can put the cob, intact, into their microwave ovens. I find that poppability varies through the year, probably depending on the temperature and the humidity.

If I sought maximum poppability, I could measure the moisture level by accurately

The easiest grain to grow and process on a backyard scale is popcorn

With the fruit course out of the way, let’s move on to the grain course.

I’ve tried growing wheat and rice on a (very small) garden scale, and yields were paltry and sometimes difficult to get at, because of top-heavy plants flopping to the ground. Flopping was probably due to too much fertility and moisture. Processing either grain was

weighing out a portion of kernels and drying them in a 150-degree Fahrenheit oven overnight, then reweighing them.

But how big the kernels can puff up isn’t nearly as important to me as the fact that popcorn is an easy-to-grow, nutritious whole grain that’s tasty and fun to eat.

uppermost buds start to grow, they in turn start pumping down auxin. Those three or four upper buds now threaten to expand to become stems. At this point they can do what they will, because lower buds – the sprouts – have all puffed up to good size.

– Lee Reich

Finally, moving on to the vegetable course. A few weeks ago I wrote about sizing up the sprouts of Brussels sprouts by pinching the tips of the plants. That stops the production of the hormone auxin, which had been suppressing sprout growth further down along the stem.

The suppression is only temporary. As

ALMANAC WEEKLY HISTORY

The Dr. Oliver Bronson House Historic Hudson walking tour spotlights rescued architectural gem

C

onsider this little drop of a story as a symbol for something larger happening up and down this valley, as well as very specifically within the fast-renovating City of Hudson.

There was once a pretty big Federal-style home built for a local merchant who owned a fleet of boats plying the harbor of what was then one of the river’s great ports. The year was 1812, and the site chosen was on the upland side of the small, fast-developing city, where many homes were built in what’s now called “Nantucket style” and assembled from what would nowadays be called prefab kits built in New England. The views were said to be magnificent, and oftpainted in the day.

By the mid-1830s, original owner Samuel Plumb sold his estate to the city mayor, who subdivided the 160-plusacre property to stay afloat following the Crash of ’37. A Dr. Oliver Bronson of New York City, heir to a banking fortune that maintained itself through those troubled years, bought the house and brought in the young architect Alexander Jackson Davis to renovate and expand the place. His friend Andrew Jackson Downing reportedly helped out on the grounds’ design to give the place a “fully realized RomanticPicturesque landscape” that Bronson kept paying to expand and improve upon – until he sold the estate to a man who renamed it Glenwood in the 1850s, who sold it to an heiress, who passed it on to a businessman, who eventually sold the massive site to the adjacent New York State Training School for Girls (where Ella Fitzgerald spent several of her younger years), which eventually became a prison (and the grand old inmate-renovated home for the facility’s superintendents). By 1972, the old Plumb-Bronson house was abandoned and derelict.

Then, in the mid-1990s, the local owner of a home furnishings business heard about the derelict house, home to piles of trashed tires and other debris, and about the local plans to demolish it. At the same time, a number of new residents in Hudson, drawn by the city’s grand architecture and large numbers of fine antique stores, came together to form a preservation organization, Historic Hudson, designed to save places like that grand estate absorbed by the state prison system.

“I was bowled over. I thought, ‘I can’t believe this exists,’” noted that local

businessman, Timothy Dunleavy, one of the founders – and longtime president – of Historic Hudson, in a National Trust for Historic Preservation assessment of the house a few years back. “I think it’s a remarkable product of American ingenuity and creativity from an early period of American history, before America’s ascendance as a world power... It’s just something beautiful.

Beauty is a rare thing.

You see this beauty, and you want to make sure it doesn’t go away.”

Since then, Historic Hudson not only found National Landmark status and renovation funds for the Dr. Oliver Bronson House, as it’s now known (and Photos of the Dr. Oliver Bronson House in Hudson on which it has a 30courtesy of Historic Hudson year lease), but it has also shone a spotlight onto its home city’s remarkable architecture, which many have noted is about as fine a cross-section of 18th-, 19th- and early-20th-century buildings and “veritable dictionary of American architectural style” as can be found anywhere in the nation. The organization helped feed a historic preservation commission in the city’s planning processes second to none in the state, and keeps adding programs to draw attention and loving care for what Hudson was, and is, and hopefully will always be.

In addition to its careful, non-fussy renovation at the Dr. Bronson home, which was featured in the last (2012) outing of the Bourne films and served as the setting of an art show featuring works by Kiki Smith (among others) last summer, Historic Hudson now presents regular lectures, exhibits and annual preservation awards.

Moreover, it collects and maintains classic photographs of the city’s history, has one of the best architecturally minded websites around and has produced a remarkably educational and fun walking tour for all interested in not only the city’s past, but also that of the entire valley and the nation’s cultural arc of 300-plus years.

“Despite depredation caused not only by neglect and the passage of time, but by planned demolition and ill-considered destruction, it remains a cause for celebration that the City of Hudson has retained so much of its superb architectural heritage,” the organization notes, online, of its city’s history (along with a breakdown of every style of architecture visible within its boundaries). “In the past two decades, Hudson has renewed itself as it had twice before in the 18th and mid-19th centuries. The city, with its architecture and unique character, has come once more to be avidly appreciated, and more importantly, saved and restored by some longtime residents and by many new devotees of the city: all the spiritual if not the actual heirs of those who built – and rebuilt – Hudson better than they found it.”

ALMANAC WEEKLY THE FACEOFF GETTING TOP BILLING

is between the American Enterprise Institute’s “paleoconservative,” “paleolibertarian” gadfly Charles Murray, and The New Yorker’s George Packer, who made a lot of thoughtful people nervous last year with The Unwinding: An Inner History of the New America, using a series of biographical sketches to chronicle the unraveling of the American Dream and blaming it on “organized money.”

Uncommon values in common Top thinkers duke it out over “American Exceptionalism” at Hannah Arendt Center conference at Bard

I

tching to pick a fight with someone today? Are you aghast at the apathy of your fellow Americans, who seem to be wandering about in a haze, numbed by their latest addictive consumer gadgets and oblivious to the imminent collapse of democratic institutions and global ecosystems? Or did you just wake up on the wrong side of bed this morning?

Well, if you’re casting about for a topic, I can’t imagine one more sure to provoke an argument than questioning American Exceptionalism. Even the most relentless critics on the right of the current presidential administration will do an abrupt and irate turnabout if someone suggests to them that our way of life might not be the best in the world, or that we

“Are there still American values worth fighting for?” might at least have something to learn from other systems.

Yet contemplating scary notions, in a spirit of civil discourse, is the bailiwick of scholars who believe in what used to be called a liberal education. Get a bunch of them together in a conference and toss out a provocative idea and you’ve got a public spectacle as grand as an ancient Roman gladiator battle, without all the mess.

That’s what’ll be happening next Thursday and Friday at the Hannah Arendt Center for Politics and Humanities in Annandale, where Bard College president Leon Botstein will utter the fighting words, “Are there still American values worth fighting for?” to a top-shelf panel of intellectuals from various humanities and social science disciplines and let them have at it, with the ultimate goal of identifying some common ground to stake out on this very divisive topic.

Among the participants in this conference, called “The Unmaking of Americans,” will be a MacArthur Fellowship “genius,” two National Book Award-winners, an American Academy of Arts and Sciences fellow, several academicians wearing the laurels of Distinguished Professor at their respective institutions, pundits for publications as diverse in viewpoint as Forbes and Dissent and a certain Columbia University law professor whom Andrew Cuomo was justifiably reluctant to debate, and who gave him a good scare (carrying Ulster and Dutchess Counties, incidentally) in last month’s gubernatorial primary. A Brazilian philosopher/politician will also be on hand to provide a perspective from the “outside.”

The faceoff getting top billing in this arena is between the authors of two recent rabble-rousing best-sellers from polar political and economic perspectives about how America is going to Hell in a handbasket. One is the American Enterprise Institute’s “paleoconservative,” “paleolibertarian” gadfly Charles Murray, who in 2012 raised the specter of class

warfare caused by “moral decline” with Coming Apart: The State of White America, 1960-2010. His earlier book The Bell Curve, which suggests a link between race and intelligence, has long been regarded by some intellectuals on the left as an exercise in “racist pseudoscience.”

In the opposite corner will be The New Yorker’s George Packer, who made a lot of thoughtful people nervous last year with The Unwinding: An Inner History of the New America, using a series of biographical sketches to chronicle the unraveling of the American Dream and blaming it on “organized money.” His usual journalism beat is foreign policy, previously authoring The Assassins’ Gate: America in Iraq.

This odd couple will kick off the conference on Thursday morning by debating the question, “Is there Still an Idea of America that Can Inspire People to Sacrifice for the Common Good?”

Discussions later in the day will focus on such concepts as pragmatism and justice, and on the second day will examine questions of race and freedom. While Packer and Murray will have moved on by Friday, Zephyr Teachout will replace their celebrity wattage by joining the group that afternoon to help address the question, “Can We Restore American Democracy?”

The list of featured speakers at “The Unmaking of Americans” also includes Yale English professor David Bromwich and Political Science professor Jim Sleeper, University of Wisconsin Political Science professor Kennan Ferguson, Harvard Law School professor Lawrence Lessig, CUNY Graduate Center Comparative Literature professor Joan Richardson, novelist Norman Rush, NYU Stern School of Business Economic History professor Amity Shlaes, Columbia University Law professor Kendall Thomas, the aforementioned Brazilian legal scholar Roberto Mangabeira Unger, Bard’s own Languages and Literature professor Ann Lauterbach and Political Science professor Roger Berkowitz, plus Jerome Kohn, the editor of Hannah Arendt’s unpublished and uncollected writings. Full bios can be found online at www.hannaharendtcenter. org.

Since this colloquium was inspired by questions that she raised herself, it is perhaps useful to view it in the light of one of Arendt’s own top criteria for what made her adoptive country arguably exceptional.

The Hannah Arendt Center’s seventh annual international fall conference, “The Unmaking of Americans,” runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on October 9 and 10 at Olin Hall on the Bard campus, and is open to the general public by advance registration.

In the words of the conference organizers, her candidate for the “true innovation of American freedom” was “the tradition of local self-government,” which “has been superseded by the rise of centralized power in the service of national security” in more recent times. If our once-vibrant institution of bottom-up leadership through feisty town meetings has devolved in your community into squabbles so ugly and personalized that they make you begin to wonder if there isn’t some merit in Charles Murray’s hypothesis about a decline in the intellect of Americans through genetic self-selection, maybe a visit to a high-level gathering of diversethinking scholars would be tonic. While spirited, at least the debate is likely to remain polite and focused on the issues.

Oct. 2-9 Check out the view from Ferncliff Forest!

I drove by Ferncliff Forest for years without ever venturing in. Well, I finally made it, took the short hike to the fire tower (under 30 minutes), climbed up just over 100 steps to the top, and I am telling you: This is one of the best views in the Hudson Valley, especially during foliage season! Entry to the forest is free, and a trailhead kiosk provides maps and brochures.

Ferncliff Forest is located at 68 Mount Rutsen Road in Rhinebeck. For more information, call (845) 876-1559 or visit www.ferncliffforest.org.

Rhyme Time by the Hudson at Boscobel Countless families know Lisa DiMarzo from her years at the MidHudson Children’s Museum. Now you can find this favorite local educator of mine at Boscobel, where she has created a lovely activity there for the youngest set: Rhyme Time by the Hudson. Children ages 1 through 5 years will gather with caregivers in the pavilion tent for interactive songs, storytelling and games, while learning about history and hidden messages in nursery rhymes such as “Humpty Dumpty” and “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star,” and connecting with the lore of the Hudson River.

Rhyme Time by the Hudson takes place weekly on Fridays from 10 to 10:45 a.m. from October 3 to October 24. The cost is $60 for not-yet-members plus one child, $40 for Boscobel members plus one child and $15 for each additional child.

Boscobel is located at 1601 Route

Open House at John Burroughs’ Slabsides If you’ve been scoping out trails for the Esopus Explorers’ Badge, I highly recommend spending time at Slabsides. And in addition to walking through the beautiful woods, you can see the inside of John Burroughs’ little cabin if you stop by during this weekend’s Open House. On Saturday, October 4 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., enjoy a guided tour of this celebrated naturalist’s dwelling, as well as a lecture and other activities. The event is free and open to the public.

Slabsides is located at 261 Floyd Ackert Road in West Park. For more information, visit www.johnburroughsassociation.org.

Halloween-season events at Sleepy Hollow Nothing sets the scene for Halloween quite like Sleepy Hollow, and you’d be hard-pressed to find something bigger than the Great Jack O’Lantern Blaze at Van Cortlandt Manor, with its more than 5,000 carved and illuminated pumpkins. Additional Halloween-themed events in the area include Horseman’s Hollow at Philipsburg Manor, with a high fear factor, recommended for ages 10 and up; Irving’s Legend at the Old Dutch Church, where master storyteller Jonathan Kruk performs a dramatic retelling of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, accompanied by live organ music, recommended for ages 10 and up; and The

Legend behind the “Legend,” a daytime experience at Washington Irving’s Sunnyside residence in Tarrytown.

To me, these are special opportunities to tie in historical local lore with the next generation. For more information about each event, including ticket pricing, dates and times, visit www.hudsonvalley.org.

Grahamsville Fairgrounds throw Giant Pumpkin Party Clear your calendars this Saturday, October 4 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. for the Giant Pumpkin Party at the Grahamsville Fairgrounds. Children of all ages will enjoy the Old MacDonald’s Farm and Petting Zoo, hay maze, obstacle course, haunted house, carnival games that everyone wins, homemade donuts and more.

The Grahamsville Fairgrounds are located along Route 55 in Grahamsville.

Walkway’s fifth anniversary puppet exhibit This weekend marks the fifth anniversary of the Grand Opening of the Walkway over the Hudson, and some of the original celebratory puppets are on display on Saturday, October 4 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. While you’re there, I encourage you to take a ride in the new 21-story elevator!

To me, the Walkway symbolizes possibility – that so many people could work together and transform this rehabilitated railway into such a valuable community asset – and connectedness: a tangible and personal direct link between the people of Ulster and Dutchess Counties, as well as a destination that

draws visitors from around the world.

Parking is available on either end of the Walkway: 61 Parker Avenue in Poughkeepsie, 125 Washington Street in Poughkeepsie and 87 Haviland Road in Highland. For more information, visit www.walkway.org.

18th-century Fall Festival at Kingston’s Senate House The Senate House in Kingston is a reminder of how bold our forebears were, declaring a new State Senate during the war against the British.

And since we can still visit the house and grounds, it is a terrific way to experience the feelings that “History happened here.” But throw in some live period music; hands-on activities such as cornhusk dolls and action figures, making dried-apple wreaths and candle-dipping; and live demos of blacksmithing, apple cider-pressing and cooking with 18th-century reenactors – now you’ve got an 18th-century Fall Festival! And it’s free!

On Saturday, October 4 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., stop by the festival, and add on a tour of the Senate House and Museum while you’re there. Tour admission is $4 for adults, $3 for seniors; children 12 and under get in free. The Senate House is located at 296 Fair Street in Kingston. For more information, call (845) 338-2786 or visit http://nysparks.com.

House model-building workshop at Olana Pop culture is currently infused with selfies: pictures that one takes of oneself and typically shares on social media, including the tongue-in-cheek song by the Chainsmokers, “#SELFIE,” and the word “selfie” was added to

the Merriam-Webster dictionary this year. But what if the mode of expression were changed, yet you were still given complete artistic license? How about creating a model of a house that reflects who you are?

That’s exactly what Frederic Church did when he built Olana over 100 years ago, and you are invited to try it yourself. On every Saturday in October, beginning this Saturday, October 4 from 1 to 4 p.m., use paper, cardboard and wood to construct your own three-dimensional house that reflects you. Then take a selfie with your house and post it to the Olana Facebook page.

This event is free and open to all ages; however, some components are available to be purchased for $5. A vehicle entry fee also applies, for $5. Olana is located at 5720 Route 9G in Hudson. For more information, call (518) 828-0135 or visit www.olana.org.

f, as Marshall McLuhan once said, the medium is the message, Kingstonians should be proud of their new (unofficial) city symbol: a flock of 22 wildly decorated threefoot-high polystyrene plastic peacocks mounted on stands on sidewalks from the Stockade to the Rondout.

Like the storied sidewalk cats of Catskill, the lighthouses of Saugerties and the tugboats of Port Ewen, the peacocks, which will be auctioned off on October 26, have a local connection. Pairs of peacocks have long been a featured attraction at the Forsyth Nature Center off Lucas Avenue.

In fact, the idea behind the peacocks was to raise money to replace aging playground equipment at Kinderland Park near the Nature Center by the Junior League of Kingston. “We called it ‘Peacocks Run Wild’ because they ran out Sneetch-inspired peacock by Michelle Moore, sponsored by Ryan, Roach & of the park and into the city,” said Tara Ryan, LLP on Green Street Ryan, chairman of the fundraising event, speaking metaphorically. In the wild, a peacock is an aggressive bird, known for its ability to kill poisonous snakes.

Ryan said that Kingston mayor Shayne Gallo wasn’t all that wild about erecting plastic birds on city sidewalks when the committee broached the idea with him earlier this year. “But when we showed him depictions of what we planned to do, he got very excited,” Ryan said.

The Junior League and a host of volunteers built and opened Kinderland Park in October of 1991. It has proven a popular attraction for generations of kids and parents, some of whom played there as children. The League says that the playground routinely draws 30,000 visitors a year. But time and tots have taken a toll on the wooden structures where children climb, jump and swing. “Lots of splinters,” said Anna Brett, a member of the fundraising committee and a former Junior League president, who along with some 700 other volunteers was involved with construction of the original playground. Brett is a retired Kingston City School District principal.

Equipment for Kinderland II will cost about $170,000, Brett said. The project has about $80,000 on hand, most of it from a $50,000 state grant secured by assemblyman Kevin Cahill. Other major donors included $5,000 each from the Rifton Bruderhof, which also built the stands on which the peacocks perch, and the Bank of America. Key Bank contributed $1,000. A minimum of $500 was required from businesses for sponsorship of a peacock. Fundraising will continue through groundbreaking next April.

The peacock project moved from concept to fruition in early August, little more than four months. Ryan and her committee initially conferred with officials in Catskill, now in its eighth year of displaying artistically enhanced cats on Main Street in the village. “Lots of help, contacts and good ideas,” said Ryan of her Catskill cohorts. Among the ideas was the height of the peacocks: three feet, the same as the cats. But unlike the cats, the peacocks’ fully spread tails provided artists opportunity for broader expression.

The Bruderhof financed the hiring of a carver to make the first peacock, which was subsequently molded into plastic by the USHECO firm of Rosendale. The company also made the replica for Port Ewen’s tugboats, again in conjunction with the Bruderhof.

According to Ryan, donors were recruited along with professional artists, who also included students, hobbyists and even a few preschoolers, who were asked to submit renderings for decorating blank peacocks. In July, everyone got together at a reception at the ArtBar Gallery on Broadway, where sponsors selected the artwork for their peacocks.

“We are overwhelmed by the generosity of artists, who have donated their talent, time and painting materials, and local businesses,” said Beth Hanigan, chair of the Kinderland II committee and president-elect of the Junior League. Hanigan’s late father, Bob Hanigan, was the contractor who built the original Kinderland. She played there as a child. Artist advisors were Nancy Donskoj of the Storefront Gallery, Eric Johnson of the Kingston Museum of Contemporary Art, Gloria Waslyn of the Uptown Gallery and Renee Darmstadt of Cornell Street Studios.

The peacocks will be auctioned on October 26, beginning with a preview and brunch at 12 noon at the Garden Plaza (formerly Holiday Inn) off Washington Avenue. Admission costs $30. Artists will receive 25 percent of the bid on their peacocks, with the rest going toward the Kinderland project.

Phyllis McCabe photo exhibition at Arts Society of Kingston Phyllis McCabe, whom many consider one of the nicest of all regional

October 2, 2014 photographers (as well as a frequent Ulster Publishing contributor), has been capturing images of people dancing – socially, professionally and quietly by themselves – over the past three years. A large selection of these works, all bringing the same care and appreciation for natural beauty and the wonder inherent in “perfect moments,” will be showing for the next month at the Arts Society of Kingston.

It opens this Saturday as part of the citywide First Saturday’s cultural events, alongside a large “My Town” members’ exhibit, drawing together paintings, watercolors and pastel interpretations of the Ulster County life and landscape.

Altamura Center in Round Top opens as dinner theater venue Last month many of us were startled to learn that Greene County’s Altamura Center – where top opera singers would train for the summer in old singing styles, then put on a handful of memorable concerts at season’s end – was going to close. But now it seems that Carmela Altamura, who inhabits the arts center that she and her husband built decades ago, will be continuing its use as an occasional dinner theater, with an inaugural run this Sunday, October 5.

“The plan is to raise additional funds by presenting the best of many arts disciplines: Broadway, opera, jazz, pop, dance, comedy, instrumental and vocal programs, in addition to home cooking and dancing,” says Altamura of her latest adventure. It will match a meal of rustic Tuscan lasagna, salad with roasted chicken, apple and walnuts, spinach quiche and Bavarian peach cake with a cast of singers including baritone Lawrence Harris, accompanied by his wife Renee Guerrero on piano, plus children Sidney and Quentin.

“A celebration of family, good cuisine and great entertainment!” Altamura concludes of her one-of-a-kind arts center, where plush mismatched chairs and busts of Verdi, Puccini, Frankie Valli and Frank Sinatra provide the setting for some of the best singing that any of us have ever heard.

– Paul Smart Dinner Theater, Sunday, October 5, 4 p.m. Happy Hour, 5 p.m. dinner & performance, $35, Altamura Center, 404 Winter Clove Road, Round Top; (518) 622-0070, (201) 863-8724, www. altocanto.org.

DEAR BUSINESSMAN/WOMAN- We at Hardscrabble Flea Market & Swap Meet would like to congratulate you on being picked from over 100 businesses in your field. We believe we can help each other- We have a swap meet every Sunday, 8 a.m.-4 p.m. at Holy Cow Shopping Center, in addition to a flea market/garage sale. We find that when business people set up a table w/business cards & flyers or “show how to do” projects it will definitely increase your business (and mine).

It’s a great way to introduce your business to new/old customers. And, if you have leftover merchandise you’d like to sellthis would be a perfect way to unload it.

Please give John a call for more details(845)758-1170. Spots are $12-$35.

I’ve learned never to take anything for granted.

DEAR BUSINESSMAN/WOMAN- We at Hardscrabble Flea Market & Swap Meet would like to congratulate you on being picked from over 100 businesses in your field.

We believe we can help each other- We have a swap meet every Sunday, 8 a.m.-4 p.m. at Holy Cow Shopping Center, in addition to a flea market/garage sale. We find that when business people set up a table w/business cards & flyers or “show how to do” projects it will definitely increase your business (and mine). It’s a great way to introduce your business to new/old customers. And, if you have leftover merchandise you’d like to sell- this would be a perfect way to unload it. Please give John a call for more details- (845)7581170. Spots are $12-$35.

DIANA’S FANCY FLEA MARKET: Nice Items Needed For Next Sale! Call Diana 626-0221. To Benefit Diana’s CAT Shelter in Accord.

Did you know the ULSTER COUNTY SPCA has GUINEA PIGS?? HARMONY & PRECIOUS are sweet guinea pigs. They’re low maintenance, full of funny squeaks & noises, great for kids & homes where dog/cat allergies are an issue. If you’d like the company of a PARAKEET, we have one just for you!! We also have a new BUNNY! HONEY BUNNY is the newest addition to our group.

Young, fluffy female w/light brown markings; she’s shy & so sweet. Also, we’ve got more Flemish Giant Rabbits than you can shake a carrot at! We’ve got them in white, brown & black. Of course we have DOGS! Newest arrivals are KARMA & BELLE, 8-year old mixed breeds- We’d love to home these 2 playful companions together. They like to run, hike & play. Selective w/other dogs, so a house to themselves would be ideal. RAKU & KEIKO; 9-months old, these Lab mix puppies are a ball of energy & fun!

1 is brown/white, the other is black/white.

They’d be great for someone who needs a hiking or running companion. MACY; beautiful 2.5-year old shepherd mix. Needs a fencedin yard to strut her stuff. The following dogs are still hoping you will meet them, fall in love & take them home; TROOPER; 2-year old mixed breed, high energy & full of love to give; great jogging companion. YANNI & SADIE; 2 cute adult shepherd mixes. These siblings have been together since they were little pups so they’d like to be adopted together. They love to run around & take nice long naps afterwards. Prefer a house w/no other animals. BRIGGS & SHEBA are also here waiting for just the right families. And last but absolutely, not least, these are some of our glorious CATS. Meet Collette, spayed 4-year old female, brown w/tiger stripes.

Comida, 5-year old female w/a sad face but a happy disposition. Got a thing for cats named after fish? We’ve got Clownfish, Starfish, Suckerfish, Koi & Beta. Dolly; small & shy but once you take a chance & get to know her, you won’t regret it. Oreo, black/white like the cookie, and w/a love for lounging on the cat scratching post. SANCHO; White/ black male, neutered, very friendly, loves to find a bed & sleep the day away. TORO; Black/white neutered male w/a lion haircut.

Friendly enough to earn the title of lobby cat, he’s been greeting visitors at the shelter for some time. SADE; adorable grey tabby kitten has a neurological condition which makes her a bit clumsy (aren’t we all?). She’s happy, healthy & involves no more care than any other wonderful kitty. She’s ready to go to a loving home today. Not a climber except to climb into your heart. Goosfrahbah; big boy who’s as sweet as he is handsome. White w/ beautiful tabby markings. AUSTIN; Another cat friendly enough to roam the lobby & mingle w/the public, referred to around these parts as the “lobby otter” for his outgoing

THE HEN & THE COD The Codfish lays ten thousand eggs, The Chicken lays but one; But a Codfish never cackles to tell you what she’s done.

And so, we scorn the Codfish, while the humble Hen we prize; Which only goes to show you that: IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE!

one other friendly cat. He also adores kittens and is a great babysitter! He’s still a shy boy but loves to be brushed, petted, and told how handsome he is.

A beautiful, sweet long-haired orange boy is available to join your family. Originally from a feral colony in Kingston, Finnegan has come a long way with his socialization skills while in his loving foster home. Finnegan is especially fond of other cats so his ideal forever home would be one with at least one other friendly cat. Finnegan also adores kittens and is a great babysitter.

Finnegan is still a shy boy but he loves to be brushed, petted, and told how handsome he is. He is not a lap cat (yet) but is quiet, well-mannered, loves to play, and very easy to be with. Finnegan is neutered, up to date with his shots, and disease free.

For more information about Finnegan, please call
