TOP STORY
All The Praise They Deserve, And More FRANK RIZZO frizzo@antonmediagroup.com
A reporter stepped into the Manhasset High School gym in early May. A number of Manhasset boys basketball players were shooting baskets at one end of the gym. It was nearly two months after they had captured the state Class A basketball title. They could have taken a well-earned rest after their great victory, yet there they were, keeping their skills sharp. Upon such dedication are champions made.
T
he emblems of their glory were made visible. Each Manhasset player received a plaque with a team picture and a game-bygame account of the championship season. They also received tee-shirts emblazoned with “Manhasset State Champions” type and a NYS Assembly certificate from Assemblywoman Gina Sillitti. Head coach George Bruns took to the podium and thanked the Manhasset Chamber of Commerce for picking up the tab for championship jackets, which had not yet arrived. And his charges would get one more thing, according to Bruns: “Rings. And why not?” to cheers. The veteran coach stated, “It’s certainly warranted that these guys here deserve as much acclaim as we can give them.” The occasion was a chamber-sponsored celebration of the squad that brought so much joy and excitement to the community. Originally, it was supposed to take place during the chamber’s Al Fresco event that

Sunday, June 12, but the threat of thunderstorms canceled the popular street shopping/dining event and the team’s honoring quickly pivoted to an indoor event at the Plandome Country Club. Chamber Co-President Bill Hannan opened the proceedings and called the season “an amazing achievement and we are delighted that you guys are as good as you are (applause).” Hannan was a frequent attendee at Indians’ games and spoke for many when he told a reporter on more than one occasion, “They’re a fun team to watch.” Town of North Hempstead Supervisor Jen DeSena said, “It’s so great to be together again. It’s so hard to let go of that season, right?” She went on to praise the coaches and the parents for combining to shape the players’ talents into a championship formula. “All the practices you had—you probably didn’t like it at the time, but look at the results you got,” DeSena observed. “That’s
the proof and I know you’re going to take that into college with you. Hard work pays off. Good luck and how about one more championship for Manhasset (applause)?” She then turned it over to Bruns, who called each player by name and watched as they accepted the plaques from assistant coach Stu Goldberg and tee-shirts from jayvee coach Don Rood and certificates from Sillitti. Making note of the state championships clinched by the lacrosse teams the day before, Bruns exclaimed, “It’s been an unbelievable year” to applause. “The memory will be here (pointing to his head) and here (pointing to his heart) and that is something that not many people are going to have the chance to enjoy,” Bruns went on, and noted that lots of teams work hard and have talent, but don’t win titles. “It was a very special group of boys,” he explained. “The chemistry was terrific.” He described the three practice squads and how hard they competed in scrimmages and helped make every player better.
“It got heavy duty,” he said, drawing laughter when he related that the two Diskin brothers, Jack and Christopher (both 6-4) “went at each other hard. You’re lucky to have them both. It certainly was a joy to coach them and we’re so happy for them and what they achieved.” Bruns thanked the parents for getting the players where they needed to be, including 6 a.m. practices during the playoffs. In a commemorative booklet handed out to each player, Bruns gave a game-byaccount of the season and also delineated the commitment that resulted in success: “The season preparation began in March with games in the [Town of Oyster Bay] PAL Spring League, and then with games in the outdoor Hempstead Summer League, combined with 8 a.m. skills workouts (requested by the players) in July and August at Christopher Morley Park. With the return to school in September, games began in the PAL Fall League.”

BOYS BASKETBALL from page 3
Words Of Praise
Bruns said a couple of sentences for each player. Of freshman Patrick Arnold (a state champ in basketball and lacrosse) he noted, “He didn’t get a lot of minutes in basketball, but he makes up the glue of the team. Mrs. Bruns would say, ‘Look at him on the bench, supporting his teammates every minute.’ That’s ‘teamness.’ That’s what chemistry we have. It was not about him, it was about the team. And that’s what we want our children to learn about team sports when it’s done right. We had a problem or two and they worked it out among themselves. Because they communicated and talked to each other. The captains took charge and ironed out some kinks and we moved ahead and I’m really proud of that.” “All our starters got Awards,” Bruns said, singling out All-County selections Liam Buckley and Mike Notias, as well as Liam Connor for earning the Hank Williams Award presented to the outstanding player in Class A basketball in Nassau County. Chris Diskin, per Bruns, “did a phenomenal job. He waited his turn until (6-8 center) James Morris got hurt in that scrimmage before our first playoff game. And Chris brought enthusiasm, energy rebounding and passing. “I told him you don’t have to score a single point to make our team so much better. So he filled in and because of his play he got minutes and was a big part of our success.” Speaking of Morris, a junior, Bruns hoped “to keep this guy healthy. The things he did to make us win are not in the box score. Next year, we are looking for him to score a few more baskets, but even if he doesn’t, [he’s got] his defense and rebounding. He does a fabulous job in every respect.” Jack LaMarca also earned two state championships, and Bruns said, “We have high hopes for him next year. I understand he progressed in lacrosse as well. So keep at it, Jack. You have a promising future. According to Bruns, nobody had to battle COVID more than senior captain Michael Mastando, “and he did, believe me. He was always there. Great job.” At one point early in the season, the pandemic had reduced the squad to nine healthy players. On any other team, Bruns stated, soph James Notias “would have been playing a lot more a lot sooner. Our plan was to bring him along and hope that he would be ready come playoff time. Our hopes were more than satisfied. He did a fantastic job down the stretch for us and will be a major part of what’s going to happen here in the next year or two.” The coach hailed senior Michael Notias “for his outstanding contributions, both on offense and defense. He led us in so many ways. Mike is going to be attending SUNY Farmingdale and I’ll have an opportunity to watch him play out there.” Matt Perfetto was also a key player on the lacrosse team, and Bruns joked, “This guy didn’t throw any behind-the-back passes in basketball, but I understand he scores them

from behind the back in lacrosse (laughter).” The coach added that the senior captain “was groomed to be a point guard and Matty filled the bill and he was uncanny in making plays this year. He had a great feel for the game.” Of senior Peter Vorillas the coach said, “He came in to help us in a couple of key spots this year. He’s a math guy and so he’s special given my background (Bruns is a retired math teacher).” Matt Fulgieri was brought up for the playoffs, which Bruns likened to an extra season as the Indians competed in seven games. “He was terrific in practice,” he said of Fulgieri. “I think he learned [a lot] and got beat up by a couple guys. but that’s part of the process. He also wrote a great article [about the season] for Manhasset Magazine.” Told he had forgotten about Oscar Cellura, Bruns asked the senior to come up and declared that “If Oscar was 6-foot-7 he’d be the county player of the year.” He added, “He made the team because of his ‘teamness’ and because of his support and his devotion to the team . He didn’t let us down from day one. Just a great attitude.
Oscar, you were terrific let’s give him a hand.” The coach thanked all those who supported the team, from the parents and the Manhasset Athletic Booster Club to the administration and maintenance staff. He singled out Robert Anastasia (“Bobby A”) a longtime athletic volunteer “who put in an enormous amount of work.” “Hear, hear,” someone called out in agreement. In his write up, the coach expressed admiration for the seniors, whose junior season was abbreviated thanks to the pandemic. “You are to be commended because your attitude, perseverance and performance were exemplary,” he praised. Before presenting the large official Assembly certificate to the team, Sillitti noted, “Manhasset holds a special place for me. My husband grew up here, graduated from Manhasset High School. My in-laws still live here. The outpouring of support for you guys was incredible. Everybody rallied around your victory and it just shows what kind of special place we live in. To the parents, I honestly don’t know what you’re
feeding these guys, but each one was taller than the next (laughter).” To the chamber people on hand she joked that they have a lot of work to do, what with all the state championships to be acknowledged.

Night In White
The annual summer gala to benefit The Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs is on Thursday, July 21 JULIE PRISCO jprisco@antonmediagroup.com
E
very summer, The Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs host the Night In White to commemorate another year of progress in the autism community. The partner organizations offer pre-vocational training, an introduction to the world of work and productive experiences in the community to autistic individuals. The organization honors individuals and/ or groups that have positively impacted the autism community at the gala. For the 11th Night In White, Bianca and Rob DeGaudenzi and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PWC) are being honored for their dedication and work for The Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs. Co-Founders Stella Spanakos and Nichole Sugrue worked to build The Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs as a welcoming and beneficial program for autistic adults. When Spanakos’ husband Paul tragically passed away from a heart attack, Spanakos channeled her grief into creating The Nicholas Center with her long-time friend Sugrue. Before the passing of her husband, Spanakos and her husband began to talk about their son Nicholas and his future as someone on the autism spectrum. Spanakos didn’t like what she saw in the programs she was researching and was very concerned about what they would do. This concern inspired conversations about creating a program for kids like Nicholas to “teach them the skills they needed and support them in employment,” said Spanakos. After researching businesses that individuals on the autism spectrum would thrive in, Spanakos and Sugrue came across t-shirt printing. After that, Spanakos’ barn was transformed into a studio where her son Nicholas and his classmates would come down for a couple of hours a day to learn and work. Spanakos and Sugrue worked to create and finalize plans, programming and instructions for The Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs. In Greek Orthodox tradition, a formal mourning period is a year. So for the year following Spanakos’ husband’s death, she wore black every day. On June 7, 2011, the year long mourning period was over and Spanakos no longer wore black. The change in clothing inspired her and Sugrue to plan Night In White to fundraise for their newly formed organizations and honor the memory of Spanakos’ husband. “We needed to buy an awful lot of equipment to get the building up and going,” said Spanakos. “The first Night In White was in
Bianca and Rob DeGaudenzi with their three sons. (Contributed photo) honor and memory of my husband, so from that point on, we do it every year with everyone dressed in white. It’s a great tradition where we can honor a family that has been instrumental in helping us along the journey.” When talking about honoring Bianca and Rob DeGaudenzi, Spanakos said that “they’ve really stepped up to the plate and been there from the beginning. They understood what I wanted and what we would embark on for our children.” Bianca and Rob DeGaudenzi have three sons together, and when their son Nicholas who is on the autism spectrum, began school, they were introduced to Spanakos. The family lives in Manhasset, and their kids went to the Manhasset Public School District, which has a Parent Association for Special Education Families (PASE). When Bianca and Rob’s son joined the school district, Bianca found PASE and went to a meeting, where she met the group’s president, Spanakos. “The next generation of moms was coming along, and autism was becoming a vocabulary word for them,” said Spanakos. “Then in walks to the meeting Bianca who had a son named Nicholas, just like mine, and she becomes a member of PASE. She was there when we were developing and expanding the
special education program for the school.” Bianca joined the organization and looked to the parents that came before her for guidance, as it was her first experience with a child in special education. “At that time, Stella was the president, and I was so happy to join that organization because she was another parent with a son with autism, like mine,” said Bianca. “I feel like I was kind of following in her footsteps; she was paving the way for students like my son.” Since Spanakos’ son has aged out of the system, Bianca has played a more significant role in PACE. She was the president for several years and is “currently the treasurer to allow other people the opportunity to step up,” said Bianca. Bianca and Rob’s son began going to The Nicholas Center part-time, doing a half-day at school and a few hours at The Nicholas Center. “[Our son] is so happy at the Nicholas Center, and he thrives around their incredible team of dedicated and passionate people,” said Bianca. “He is happy to go every day, and we are happy he is close by and a part of an amazing community of people.” Now, Nicholas is full-time at The Nicholas Center, and the more time he has spent there, the more Bianca and Rob got involved. “I asked Rob to be on the board of
Spectrum Designs Foundation,” said Spanakos. “He works for PWC and is brilliant in a lot of the financial planning and other business aspects.” Rob feels he came onto the board at a perfect time, as he was ready to become more actively engaged in working with the autism community. As a partner with PWC, Rob has a tax and accounting background in business-oriented issues. “I took a spot on Spectrum’s board right before COVID-19 hit in 2020,” said Rob. “During that time, there were many challenges and issues facing businesses. It was exciting to join [Spectrum Design’s] great board and play a role in working through some of the issues that came from the challenges during COVID-19.” Rob explained PWC’s pro-bono program, where the company allows its people to dedicate their time to various non-profit initiatives. Spectrum Designs needed to develop a strategic business plan, so Rob was able to put together a team of four business consultants from PWC to do various interviews, data gathering, and analysis to help create the five-year business plan. The team has recently taken on The Nicholas Center in a similar project to look at its business model and evaluate its strategic comparatives. “I’ve been very involved with Spectrum on the board and with The Nicholas Center in this project,” said Rob. “It has allowed me the chance to get underneath the hood and see the workings of The Nicholas Center to have a whole new appreciation for them and the tremendous value that they provide.” While Spanakos expresses her gratitude for this “dynamic couple,” the DeGaudenzi’s feel the same gratefulness for her and The Nicholas Center. “From my perspective, she’s honoring us, but we should really be honoring her for all she has done,” said Bianca. “[The Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs] are truly world-class organizations,” said Rob. “I’ve worked with some of the largest companies in the world, and I see the way these two organizations run, and it is truly amazing. Everyone who works there is so excited to be there and show up.” The Night In White will be held at the North Hempstead Country Club in Port Washington on Thursday, July 21 from 6:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. Ticket and sponsorship opportunities will be available soon; for more information, contact Alessandra Furlong at alessandrafurlong@nicholascenterunsa.org “The Night In White is a special, magical time where we can reflect a whole year’s worth of progress,” said Spanakos. “ It is embedded in a very deep, emotional tradition and touches everybody, especially all those families that have been with us since the start.”

nything born in a kitchen is always a good thing. Take, for example, a comforting homecooked meal, a delectable slice of homemade bread hot from the oven or even a fabulous idea for something new and unrelated to anything that came out of the pantry. In the case of Barbara Herel, the kitchen was the birthplace of her original show and later podcast, Every Family’s Got One. Every Family’s Got One, or EFGO, was an idea conceived by Herel after the close of a show she had done with a New York City producing team several years ago. She had just come off the show, Listen to Your Mother, in which she performed and assisted in curating the show. Listen to Your Mother enabled Herel, a stand-up improvisational comedian, to find her roots. “I loved being part of something that allowed me to write and be part of something that seemed relatable,” she explained. “Once that show ended, I wanted to figure out how I could start my own show in my own community. I began to think about family experiences. I come from a family with a lot of personality, and I wondered how I could create something that would get people talking. Basically, the idea just came to me in my kitchen. It felt right.” In 2018, the first production of Every Family’s Got One launched. The traveling troupe found a stage in Huntington as well as the stage at My Father’s Place in Roslyn. When the pandemic hit, Herel still wanted to get stories out to her audience, so she started a podcast with the same name. EFGO is currently in its third year. “We have long-time and first-time storytellers in our cast. We do a writer’s workshop to help cast members
refine their stories,” she said. “We have MOTH and RISK! storytellers in the show as well. They are basically just telling a story about their personal experiences. The hope is that someone in the audience will relate to it. And by relating to it, this will get people talking and off their phones.” The importance of socializing in a world where most folks live on electronic devices helps to connect members of society and helps to ward off the feeling of isolation. “It’s also about how people define their own ‘family’,” Herel pointed out. “Is it a group of friends? Is it the people with whom you work? Could ‘family’ be your pets? These are truly passionate stories that we pass down through generations and we want to feel like we’re related to those stories.” MOTH Storytelling is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the art of storytelling, while RISK! Storytellers tell true stories that they never thought they would share with the public. EFGO brings true family stories from storytellers that are heartwarming, at times hilarious, cringe-worthy and even unexpected. Herel always wanted to collaborate and work with her best friend of 45 years, Dawn Nagle, a local artist. Nagle, who was born in New York and lived in Colorado for more than a decade, curated art shows in Denver. When she moved back to New York, she focused on her own artwork. “I was part of an exhibition at the Southampton Community Center and it got me thinking about how much I love to draw people in with events,” Nagle said. “I wanted to get artists together and give them a sense of community. When I saw the beautiful stage at SHCC with a gallery for artwork, I couldn’t wait to talk to Barbara about it. A band was playing in the background, and I thought that it would have been a great idea if we had collaborated to get people in to see both

the band and the artists at the gallery.” Dawn discussed the idea of combining both the art community with Barbara’s show. The idea took off from there. Nagle did a call for artists for the show and 17 local artists from as far away as New York City responded. Two college students and two high school students were included in the group because Dawn wanted to give them a positive experience and be involved with the more seasoned artists who would be part of the exhibition. “We have a dynamic, diverse group of local talent,” Nagle said. “They are getting to know each other through social media and are becoming a ‘family’ of sorts. This is the thing that I missed most about curating shows: the sense of camaraderie. It’s my hope that I can keep this group together and build upon it. I would also like to do something online with this group. It’s so important to give back to the community.” Herel and Nagle found great joy in the planning stages of the event. According to Herel, “What I love most about our show is finding the best stories. When you get up on stage and tell a story about your family, it’s relatable. We help the cast with their performance through coaching, which enables them to really connect with the audience. We’ve allowed people to use notes so they aren’t stressed about memorizing lines. It’s about a really great story, and we have those great stories in this show.” Some topics range from romantic stories that ended hilariously in a massage parlor to the nightmare of a Thanksgiving dinner gone bad to family secrets that were never shared publicly. “We have heartwarming stories in EFGO and we have people who have found their voice,” Herel said. “These are well-crafted stories that I absolutely love because it gets people to talk to each other and relate to the performers with their own experiences.
And then we have the artwork, which is stunning. I can’t find another word for it, because we have such diverse artists who will have their work in the gallery. And I am having so much fun planning this with Dawn.” The idea of combining both the art in the gallery and the storytelling was to build an art community that supported each other as well as connecting people together in a relatable and heartwarming way. The eventual plan for both Herel and Nagel is to find a home for their collaborative show. As Herel observed, “We’re trying to get the momentum going so people know about the show. The fun of it is just putting it out there. Dawn is so connected to people in the art world, and I’m so grateful for the experience. People love to perform. I love bringing this show to the community.” The event will be held on June 25 at the Southampton Community Center. The gallery will open with a reception from 4 pm to 8 p.m. that will include hors-d’oeuvres and beverages with a meet-andgreet of 17 accomplished, dynamic New York artists and more than 65 exceptional pieces of art. The exhibition, “Live and In Person: A Celebration of NY Artists” will run from June 25 through July 17. At 7 p.m., ticketholders will be invited to meet with artists and cast members in the gallery with light snacks and drinks. Every Family’s Got One will begin at 8 p.m. and will run for approximately 90 minutes. There will also be raffles for two giveaways during the event.

Guidance Center Hosts 25th Annual Krevat Cup Event honoring founder Jeff Krevat raises $150,000 to support children’s mental health
T
he North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center, the pre-eminent not-for-profit children’s mental health agency on Long Island, celebrated the 25th anniversary of the Jonathan Krevat Memorial Golf & Tennis Classic on June 6, at one of Nassau County’s finest courses, the elegant Engineers Country Club in Roslyn Harbor. The event raised $150,000 to support the Guidance Center’s work to bring hope and healing to children and families dealing with mental health or substance use challenges. More than $25,000 in additional funds were raised for the Guidance Center’s Douglas S. Feldman Suicide Prevention Project, another life-saving initiative that launched in September 2020. This year, the event honored Jeff Krevat, a longtime supporter of the Guidance Center and founder of the Krevat Cup, which is named in honor of his brother. “The mission of the Guidance Center is more important than ever before, with children and teens suffering from serious mental health challenges,” former board member Krevat said. “I am grateful to my friends and family for coming out to honor my brother’s legacy and support an organization that makes a real difference for the kids in our community.”

This year’s guest speaker was Rachel Priest, a mental health professional who was a Guidance Center client in her teen years. She told the audience, “The life-affirming
care I received from the Guidance Center saved my life. I was able to accomplish wonderful things over the years both socially and academically” because of the dedication, skills and compassion of her
Guidance Center therapists. “Knowing that the care I received over 20 years ago is still available and expanding lets me know that the Guidance Center is still changing lives every day.” Once again, the co-chairs for this year’s Krevat Cup were board members Michael Mondiello, Dan Oliver, Michael Schnepper and Troy Slade. In addition, Dan Donnelly served as the event’s emcee and auctioneer extraordinaire. “It’s all about the kids,” said Donnelly, a longtime supporter of the Guidance Center, as well as a previous Krevat Cup honoree and a close friend of Jeff Krevat’s. “I consider it a privilege to be here today to help raise money to support the incredible work that truly makes a difference in the lives of children and their families.” The Guidance Center is grateful to the Krevat Cup’s sponsors: Susan and Jeff Krevat, Americana Manhasset, Aon Reinsurance Solutions, Dan Donnelly, PSEG Long Island, Bahnik Foundation, Susan and Peter Braverman, Klipper Family Foundation, City National Rochdale, The Levine Group Inc., Newmark and Rivkin Radler LLP. —Submitted by the North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center

LETTER TO THE EDITOR PROBLEM GAMBLING AND MENTAL HEALTH Mental health is a vital topic in all reaches of Long Island right now. In the face of national tragedy and nearly ongoing bad news, for many, maintaining their mental wellness can be a daily challenge. As a form of escape or coping, many turn to gambling to overcome mental health struggles. Now readily available on a mobile device, gambling opportunities are seemingly endless. More than 800,000 New Yorkers have
experienced a gambling problem in the past year. The fallout can include sleep issues, strain on relationships with loved ones, financial problems and poor work performance. People who struggle with problem gambling are also at a higher risk for other mental health struggles. Gambling disorder often occurs with anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. On top of that, gambling disorder has the highest suicide rate
among all addictions. Nearly 50 percent of people struggling with gambling disorder have thoughts of suicide (Moghaddam, et al, 2014). And one in five has attempted and/or died by suicide (Petry, 2000). If you or someone you love is exhibiting warning signs such as preoccupation with gambling; feeling stressed or anxious when not gambling; low work performance or absence due to gambling; or lying to family and
friends about how much money and time is spent on gambling, it’s time to reach out to the Long Island Problem Gambling Resource Center.

This includes Section 5339 Bus and Bus Facilities $546 million; Section 5339(c) Low or No Emissions $1.1 billion; Transit Oriented Development Planning $13 million; and Pilot Program for Innovative Coordinated Access Mobility $4.6 million. Nassau County needs to convince the MTA to apply for grants under various national competitive grant programs that can benefit LIRR commuters. This includes Section 5337 State of Good Repair Replacement $300 million and Capital Investment New Starts or Core Capacity grants $3.8 billion. The Federal Highway Administration has funding under several programs including Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ), Surface Transportation Program (STP) and others which can be flexed or transferred to FTA can also finance capital projects. Nassau County can also apply for capital grants from the state Department of Transportation to assist in funding. Albany also provides State Transportation Operating Assistance (STOA).

Any changes to the MTA $51 billion 2020-24 Five Year Capital Plan have to be reviewed and approved by the State Capital Program Review Board (CPRB). The MTA is counting on several billion dollars more out of the $1.2 Trillion Build Back America Infrastructure bill. These dollars and projects will have to be adopted and amended into the ongoing Five Year Capital Plan in the next two years. This four-member committee is composed of one representative appointed by Governor Hochul, Senate Majority leader Andrea Stewart Cousins, Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie and New York City Mayor Eric Adams. The mayor’s representative can only vote on New York City projects. Democrats control all four votes.

The Art Of The Check-In Many relationship therapists encourage the couples they work with to have weekly check-ins with one another. These check-ins are a time in which partners can discuss anything on their minds, connect with one another and focus on the status and strength of their partnership. This need not be a serious conversation, prefaced by a “we need to talk” opener. Rather, it can be incorporated into a date night and may even become one of your rituals of connection. The goal is for you and your partner to have a discussion in which you reflect on your relationship, openly and honestly share your feelings and assess progress over time. Below are some tips to help make your check-ins productive, while still keeping them light and enjoyable. Focus On Growth/Finding Solutions While it is important to bring up any issues that may be of concern, you don’t want your weekly check-ins to devolve into sessions

Bill Payne’s Long And Winding Road With Little Feat BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO
dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com
B
ill Payne is a name that may not be readily recognizable, but the argument can be made that most people have heard the native Texan’s piano/keyboardist contributions whether they realized it or not. In addition to co-founding Little Feat back in 1969, Payne has a hefty amount of guest appearances on hundreds of recordings for myriad artists including Bonnie Raitt, The Doobie Brothers, Jackson Browne, Emmylou Harris, Pink Floyd, Bob Seger and Shelby Lynne.
Bill Payne (Photo by Bryan Ledgard/ CC BY 2.0)
Considered by many to be one of the greatest living American rock and blues pianists, Payne calls Montana home when he’s not out on the road playing with Little Feat. With pandemic numbers plummeting and live music coming back to some sense of normalcy, the 73-yearold musician has been playing before fans since June 2021. The coronavirus not only forced Payne to re-adjust and learn how to play virtually with others, but also do it while welcoming a pair of new members to the band—guitarist Scott Sharrard and drummer Tony Leone. “I learned how to record at my home, which is ridiculous,” Payne said. “It’s something I didn’t know how to do before. I sort of took each challenge as it were and started getting the buzz out of my system here in Montana. I just took the challenges one at a time and went down the list one at a time. I [recorded virtually] not only with Little Feat but with the Doobie Brothers. We did some online things together as well. That defined a lot of time. It took a little while for me to learn the curve of how to record, but once [I got past that], it was solid and great way to do things.” With Sharrard welcomed into the Feat Fold in October 2019 and Leone coming aboard in September 2020, Payne views it as the price of keeping a group going that was founded back in 1969 along with Roy Estrada, Lowell George and Richie Hayward. Over the band’s five-decadeplus existence, major personnel changes have been a Little Feat constant, ranging from George’s departure in 1979 and the recruitment of former Pure Prairie League vocalist Craig Fuller to front the reunited band in 1987 to having Shaun Murphy take the baton from Fuller in 1993 until her departure in 2009. And while there could be considerable concern over fan reactions, Payne looks at it as normal evolution
Little Feat circa 1975. Bill Payne is second from left. (Public domain) that doesn’t become a concern as long as a group stays faithful to its spirit. “Every inch of the way—when we went from a group of four people which was Roy Estrada, Lowell George, Richie Hayward and myself—and then expanded it on Dixie Chicken to Paul Barrere, Kenny Gradney and Sam Clayton—people wanted to know what that was,” he explained. “The band from the get-go was designed by Lowell and myself to be expandable. We just wanted to have a vehicle of expression that would allow for whatever we needed at the time to support the music. It was a pretty simple proposition. It’s tougher to sometimes pull off because there’s a certain balance to it with fans. Fans, like all of us, want continuity. When you think of continuity and a line-up of songs—when we did Let It Roll—Lowell wasn’t there [so fans might have been asking] what is that? My response was, ‘You tell me. Does it resonate with you or not? If you say, ‘Oh my God, it sounds like Little Feat. Thanks for putting it back together,’ then you know you’re on the right track.” Up until recently, Little Feat’s last tour
leg was dubbed “Little Feat By Request,” which featured fans filing different song requests (“that was quite a challenge because we hadn’t played a lot of those songs in a long time”), The current pivot is an anniversary tour celebrating the 1978 live outing Waiting For Columbus, in which the band plays the double-album’s 17-song track listing, an accomplishment that has been well received by fans. The path Newman got Payne started out has served him well, both in and out of Little Feat. It’s not only been a North Star for his musical development, but helped him in the hundreds of recording sessions he’s been asked to be a part of. “The journey has been really interesting, personally and certainly with Little Feat,” he said. “But I’ve always been able to play with other bands and it always gave me a loose attitude about what makes up a band. Certain people go to the nth degree and everyone has got an equal voice. I don’t think an equal voice is what it’s all about.” Visit www.longislandweekly.com to read a longer version of this story.

Acclaimed Sculptor Seward Johnson On Display Through Summer
“Cloud Watching” by Seward Johnson Photo by Matt Yao
O
ld Westbury Gardens announced the return of an art exhibition featuring the work of internationally renowned sculptor Seward Johnson. The exhibit features three of the artist’s most popular series: “Celebrating the Familiar,” “Beyond the Frame” and “Icons,” including additional displays of the artist’s painted trays, maquettes of artwork never realized in bronze and choice works by his friend and colleague, artist Herk van Tongeren. On display throughout historic Westbury House and the magnificent gardens through Sept. 5, the exhibit features 35 individual pieces focusing on the sculptural commentary of day-to-day life and Johnson’s love of nature and French impressionism. New to the exhibition is a selection from the artist’s “Icon” series, which explores familiar images portrayed in a different light, as well as the debut of a never-before-seen composition. The sculptures included
from “Beyond the Frame” bring paintings by Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Vincent Van Gogh to life in three dimensions. The exhibition contains six sculptures from this body of work. The addition of a sculpture from the “Icon” series shows the infamous portrait of Mona Lisa in a much different scenario from the familiar painting. The effect will create an immersive experience in Westbury House and the gardens, inviting the viewer to step beyond the frame into the rich world of each painting. “Celebrating the Familiar” engages the viewer through more hyper-realistic figures, calling attention to the small pleasures and moments in daily tasks and activities. Installations portray individuals involved in various activities amid the gardens, from fishing in the pond to lazily watching clouds go by. Prior to becoming a wellknown sculptor, Johnson was a painter who painted primarily on canvas with acrylics. Once his

career as a sculptor flourished, his painting projects subsided— except for one unique format: painted trays. Johnson began to collect trays from antique shops on which to paint his homey, intimate scenes. “These tray paintings are snapshots of his view of life,” said Program Officer Lynn DeClemente Losavio. Each of the paintings hung in the House allow a rare window through Johnson’s eyes, featuring his sculptures and views at Ground For Sculpture. A display of Johnson’s unrealized maquettes or studies, recently cast in plaster are also at Westbury House. “These are some of my favorite works,” said DeClemente Losavio. “They are his truest ideas that were never further developed, and so important to preserve as much as possible in this raw form.” A small selection of work from artist Herk van Tongeren, friend and colleague to Johnson, are also featured. Van Tongeren helped establish the Johnson Atelier Technical
Institute of Sculpture and its master apprentice system as President and Executive Director. An architect at heart, his work predominantly consists of three-dimensional, geometrical objects positioned within a stage-like setting, In July, Composer and Jazz Vibraphonist Christian Tamburr will bring his “Sounds For Sculpture” to the Barn for one night only. Tamburr was so influenced by Seward Johnson and his sculptures that he created original compositions inspired by ten of the sculptures. An all day music workshop for students at the nearby school will emphasize art influencing art, music influencing art, and how the sculptures chosen inspire their own stories. The Seward Johnson exhibit is one of the many programs coordinated by Old Westbury Gardens and hosted at its beautifully manicured 200-acre gardens and historic Charles II-style mansion.

About The Artist
S
usanne Corbelletta is a New York native and classically trained artist. She attended The Stevenson Academy of Traditional Painting in Sea Cliff, founded by Harold Stevenson, protégé and friend of Norman Rockwell. Inspired by impressionism and classical realism, she paints seeking to capture mood and atmosphere using changes in light and broken color, hoping to invoke a sense of tranquility for the viewer. Corbelletta draws inspiration from, mainly, Long Island scenery and is always captivated when watching light cast shadows as it moves over a landscape and when seeing the reflected light bounce off its surroundings. She paints en plein air, whenever possible and then completes the canvas at her studio. Corbelletta also enjoys painting portraits, the figure and still life, where she can control the lighting and composition. Her award-winning paintings are privately collected and widely exhibited. Her work has been shown at The National Gallery, the Salmagundi Art Club, Federal Hall National Museum in NYC and galleries and museums nationally. Corbelletta is most proud to be an artist for the United States Coast Guard, where she has joined the ranks of artists past, to assist in documenting the history of the Coast Guard through paintings. As a board member of The Art Guild, Corbelletta has been exposed to various artists, mediums and styles. It has given her a broader perspective of art in the community. Corbelletta is happy to be part of an organization that provides classes and workshops for adults and children, both for beginners and more advanced artists who want to broaden their skills. Presently, Corbelletta has a solo exhibit on display at Sea Cliff Village Library through the end of June. This exhibition includes 15 of her paintings. The library is located at 300 Sea Cliff Ave. in Sea Cliff. Visit www. seaclifflibrary.org for library hours and directions. Visit www.corbelletta.com to see more of Corbelletta’s work.

SAFETY
Summer Is Not Fun Spent In The Hospital Prevent unexpected trips to the emergency room
W
ith miles of sandy beaches and endless outdoor activities, Long Island is an ideal summer haven. But with this fun-filled season of swimming, biking, boating, BBQs and more, also come more accidents than just about any other time of year. Here are some summer safety tips to prevent the following accidents and unexpected trips to the hospital emergency room:
Drowning
In the U.S., drowning is the second leading cause of unintentional injury and death for children ages 1 to 14, after motor vehicle crashes. Be sure to supervise your children at the beach and pool even if lifeguards are present.

Burns
6B | SUMMERTIME! • JUNE 22 - 28, 2022
While minor burns can be treated at home, many people find themselves in the emergency room for severe injuries. From 2014 to 2018, fire departments went to an annual average of 8,900 homes in the U.S. for fires involving grills. Remember to never leave firepits
unattended and be sure to keep your grill clean to avoid unexpected flares. Additionally—while synonymous with summer fun—leave it to the experts to handle fireworks.
Biking
Although a pleasurable way to sneak in some health benefits, you should always wear your helmet. Helmets when bike riding reduce the risks of head injury by at least 45 percent and fatal injury by 29 percent. While you may trust yourself, you can’t trust others on the road.
Boating
According to the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), boating interests are on the rise—likely as an escape from the pandemic. However, so are boating accidents. According to the U.S. Coast Guard, in 2020 boating accidents increased by 26.3 percent from 2019. Also, in most fatalities caused by boating accidents the operator received no boating safety instruction. Make sure to follow boating requirements and cool it with the throttle. Remember, there is no way to eliminate risk, but there are ways to be mindful of your surroundings. Lastly, when taking part in summer activities, be sure to drink responsibly. —NYU Langone Hospital–Long Island

Summer Bestsellers Pack a bag complete with a snack, some sunscreen and a good book before heading to the beach. Although not necessarily new books, these books are hot this summer. In no particular order, check out some of the top sellers on Amazon.
Battle for the American Mind: Uprooting a Century of Miseducation by Pete Hegseth Bestselling author and FOX News host Pete Hegseth is back with what he says is his most important book yet: a revolutionary road map to saving our children from leftist indoctrination. Behind a smokescreen of “preparing students for the new industrial economy,” early progressives had political control in mind. America’s original schools didn’t just make kids memorize facts or learn skills; they taught them to think freely and arrive at wisdom. They assigned the classics, inspired love of God and country and raised future citizens that changed the world forever.
and heartbreaking novel that digs its claws into you and doesn’t let go, long after you’ve finished it” (Anna Todd, New York Times bestselling author) from the bestselling author of All Your Perfects, a workaholic with a too-good-to-be-true romance can’t stop thinking about her first love. Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. And when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life seems too good to be true.

mystery, a coming-of-age narrative and a celebration of nature.” For years, rumors of the “Marsh Girl” have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the socalled Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life—until the unthinkable happens. Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover From Colleen Hoover, the bestselling author of It Ends with Us, aheart-wrenching love story that proves attraction at first sight can be messy. When Tate Collins meets airline pilot Miles Archer, she doesn’t think it’s love at first sight. They wouldn’t even go so far as to consider
themselves friends. The only thing Tate and Miles have in common is an undeniable mutual attraction. Once their desires are out in the open, they realize they have the perfect set-up. He doesn’t want love, she doesn’t have time for love, so that just leaves the sex. Their arrangement could be surprisingly seamless, as long as Tate can stick to the only two rules Miles has for her. The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid From the bestselling author of Daisy Jones & the Six—an entrancing and “wildly addictive journey of a reclusive Hollywood starlet” (PopSugar) as she reflects on her relentless rise to the top and the risks she took, the loves she lost, and the long-held secrets the public could never imagine. Aging and reclusive Hollywood movie icon Evelyn Hugo is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. But when she chooses unknown magazine reporter Monique Grant for
the job, no one is more astounded than Monique herself. Why her? Why now? Reminders of Him by Colleen Hoover A troubled young mother yearns for a shot at redemption in this heartbreaking yet hopeful story from bestselling author Colleen Hoover. After serving five years in prison for a tragic mistake, Kenna Rowan returns to the town where it all went wrong, hoping to reunite with her four-year-old daughter. But the bridges Kenna burned are proving impossible to rebuild. Everyone in her daughter’s life is determined to shut Kenna out, no matter how hard she works to prove herself.

will teach you exactly how to form good habits, break bad ones, and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results. If you’re having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn’t you.

Lifesaving Grilling Tips As New Yorkers look towards nicer weather, many will be firing up their grills for the first time in months. The Firefighters Association of the State of New York (FASNY) recommends that all New Yorkers follow some basic rules and tips to avoid accidents. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), an average of 19,700 patients per year (from 2014 to 2018) went to emergency rooms because of injuries involving grills. Nearly half of the injuries were thermal burns, including burns from both fire and contact with hot objects. Grills alone were involved in an average of 8,900 home fires per year, including 3,900 structure fires and 4,900 outdoor fires. “We want all New Yorkers to enjoy the warm weather outdoors, but we also want them to be safe. Keep an eye on your grill, your kids, and stay aware of your surroundings ,” said FASNY President John P. Farrell. “We are here
to help—no matter how big or small an incident seems. Don’t hesitate to call your local fire department because a few minutes can make a big difference.” Children under age five
accounted for an average of 39 percent, of the contact-type burns per year. These burns typically occurred when someone bumped into, touched or fell on the grill, grill parts or hot coals.
Keep everyone safe by following these important tips: Propane and charcoal BBQ grills should only be used outdoors. The grill should be placed well away from the home, deck railings and out from under eaves and overhanging branches. Keep children and pets at least three feet away from the grill area. Keep your grill clean by removing grease or fat buildup from the grills and in trays below the grill. Never leave your grill unattended. Always make sure your gas grill lid is open before lighting it. —Firefighters Association of the State of New York (FASNY)

yster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Councilman Lou Imbroto joined with local neighbors and the town’s highway crew to commence the demolition of a long-dilapidated zombie home on Elizabeth Street in Massapequa. “Code enforcement officers have regularly visited this house based on neighborhood complaints and issued multiple violations for building code violations and lack of maintenance,” said Saladino. “Town personnel repeatedly found deplorable conditions as this property showed clear signs of neglect. Since the lending institution that owns this property ignored all warnings related to health and human safety of the building, our administration went to court to remove this eyesore from the neighborhood. Banks are on notice; we will not tolerate dangerous and unkempt properties in the Town of Oyster Bay.” This longtime eyesore was recently court-granted for demolition following multiple complaints from neighbors
related to squatters, broken windows, mold, deterioration, water infiltration and lack of maintenance. “We’re taking back neighborhoods house by house from lending institutions that let these vacant houses deteriorate and bring down the neighborhood due to a lack of maintenance,” said Councilman and Quality of Life Task Force Chairman Lou Imbroto. “The town has removed more than 25 vacant and dilapidated eyesores from local communities while paving the way for new homes and new families.” The Town Code Enforcement Bureau of the Department of Planning and Development is charged with the enforcement of all codes, rules and regulations pertaining to zoning, housing and public safety. It is expressly designed to handle requests of citizens regarding possible violations.

he Roslyn High School girls’ lacrosse team has quite a future ahead of it. Leading the way for the Lady Bulldogs is Casey Rhine, a rising junior who has already made her mark as a star in the competitive world of Long Island girls’ lacrosse. A starter for Roslyn since she was a freshman, Rhine achieved a milestone this past May when she scored her 100th career goal in a game against Bellmore JFK. One hundred career goals. And that’s only after two seasons. Indeed, the recently completed 2022 season is where Rhine emerged as Roslyn’s offensive star, scoring 18 assists and 44 points. That’s up from 33 goals in 12 games during her freshman
season. According to her coach Lauren Lopez, Rhine is now learning to dominate, taking the draw and controlling the offense from the midfield on down. Consider the other achievements Rhine has racked up in her first two years: Being named to the Adelphi All-Star squad, a participant in the National Lacrosse Classic, the National Draw Champions, the Crab Cake Champions, the Lax by The Sea Champions, and the Million Lacrosse Camp Best Camper award. Outside of Roslyn High School, Rhine has played for both Elevate LI 2024 Blue and Elevate LI 2024 Red. Rhine combines athletic excellence with top grades. Her Grade Point Average (GPA) is 93-96; 4.0. “I started playing lacrosse in third grade and have loved it since,”
Rhine said in a recent profile. “I currently play for my club, Team Elevate and I have been a Roslyn High School varsity lacrosse starter since eighth grade. I am the top leading scorer for my school team as a midfielder. I am dominant in my right hand, but also feel comfortable in my left. I also use my speed to transition up the field, have excellent ground ball skills and can get low on D. On offense, I am confident dodging and shooting. I can drive to goal and have an excellent lax IQ. I put the same drive and effort into school as I do lacrosse. I love helping others and like to mentor young kids who want to join the lacrosse community.” For Casey Rhine and her Roslyn High School teammates, the best is yet to come.
Congratulations, Casey Rhine, you’re a top student-athlete! Orlin & Cohen is proud to support our community’s best high school athletes, just as we support all athletes’ orthopedic needs.

What Nassau’s Gas Tax Holiday Means For Your Family Finally—a little bit of good news about gas prices. On Wednesday, June 1, Nassau County began a gas tax holiday that will last through the rest of the year. During that time, Nassau will not charge sales tax on any portion of the price of gas exceeding $3/gallon. In addition, New York State will cut gasoline taxes by 20 cents per gallon. All told, these tax cuts will reduce the prices you pay at the pump by approximately 28 cents per gallon. The beginning of Nassau County’s long-awaited gas tax holiday marks the culmination of a months-long advocacy campaign by the members of the Minority Caucus. Starting on March 9, we fought to secure permission from state lawmakers to have a gas tax holiday—something we accomplished when the state budget was adopted a month later. Soon after, a local gas tax holiday was approved and signed into law. Despite initial resistance from County Executive Blakeman and the Legislative Majority, we prevailed in our efforts to deliver some real relief from the sticker shock we are all experiencing at the pump. We remain disappointed, however, that County Executive Blakeman has thus far failed to deliver the maximum amount of relief allowable under state law. In fact, he could have made this gas tax holiday

much better and longer lasting for Nassau consumers by passing the Minority Caucus plan, which, at current prices, would have boosted cumulative savings to 32 cents per gallon and extended Nassau’s portion of the holiday through March of next year. Instead, he decided not to save you more money and passed a watered-down version of our plan. That is truly unfortunate, and we will continue our fight to put money where it belongs—back into the hands of consumers. As we continue to engage in these efforts, it is important to note that New York State law requires gas stations to pass tax holiday

Ring each word as you find it and when you have completed the puzzle, there will be 9 letters left over. They spell out the alternative theme of the puzzle.
Winners and losers Solution: 9 Letters
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Each person brings out a different side of you -- perhaps subtly so, but in certain cases you discover an aspect of yourself you were entirely unaware of. This compels you to keep meeting new people. Not only does it make things interesting, but each new person provides a chance to know yourself more completely. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Small acts of kindness are so easy for you, you might consider small acts of selfishness, which are going to feel strange but will improve your life, nonetheless. When people are subconsciously deciding how to treat you, they are taking their cues right from you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Although you’d like all your possessions to be useful, beautiful or both, the truth is, much of what you own comes with complex reasoning that defies category. You’ll pare down, spiff up and generally organize. By the end of the week your possessions will better represent the person you are becoming. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’re sometimes hesitant to solve problems for others because a co-dependent dynamic ultimately helps no one. When everyone is working together and contributing all they can, it is safe to give generously. Make sure your care for others is counterbalanced by a strong sense of your own needs and wants. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Unseen? It will work to your advantage now. It’s easier to be productive when people don’t interrupt or insert their ideas into your work. Do amazing things under the radar while you can because you won’t get to use this invisibility cloak much longer. You’ll soon be noticed and applauded. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). With the abundant creativity flowing through you this week, you’ll delight people who are notoriously hard to please. This pays, but take care. Money that’s yours free and clear makes life easy. Money that comes with strings and contracts makes life harder. Decide your next financial move accordingly. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Making a decision on data alone is like buying a house sight unseen. Everything has a feel, and you don’t know until you go there. It is also not ideal to base decisions strictly on feelings and thoughts. The success of this week’s venture will have to do with a curious mix of sentiment and fact. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you wonder why you admire someone so, the resonance has to do with qualities you share, some of which are obvious and others that lie dormant inside you. Your attractions teach you what might be awakened in you. Follow up with a move to develop skill in this direction.
THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS
Your love and warmth are indisputable, and yet the year also brings assertive vibes. Though attentive to the needs of others, you still recognize your authority over your own focus. You live up to the responsibility to create the life that honors what’s best in you. You’ll often pause and assess your use of time. You’ll invest your energy and resources where they give you a desired return. You’ll travel in pursuit of fun and games with your team. A young person shines under your tutelage.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Insert a few long breaks somewhere in that tight agenda. As you allow yourself to follow your whims, it might feel as though you’re loafing, loitering, listless -- but there are great, if intangible, benefits to loosening up the reins on yourself and following the clues provided by your attractions, distractions and impulses.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your cosmic talent is strong discretion, which you use superbly on behalf of others and even more brilliantly for yourself. When you want people to know what you think, your words and actions will be clear. And when you don’t want them to know, they will never be able to read you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your organized mind will be a thrill to operate. In the early week you’ll set yourself up for success, and by month’s end you’ll have the prize.

Taking care of business North dealer. Both sides vulnerable. NORTH ♠AKQ5 ♥7 5 2 ♦Q9 ♣A Q J 9 WEST EAST ♠ 10 4 ♠76 ♥Q J 9 3 ♥ 10 8 4 ♦K843 ♦ A 10 7 6 2 ♣8 6 2 ♣ K 10 5 SOUTH ♠J9832 ♥A K 6 ♦J5 ♣7 4 3 The bidding: North East South West 1♣ Pass 1♠ Pass 3♠ Pass 4♠ Opening lead — queen of hearts. Over time, defenders who play mechanically will not do nearly as well as those who play thoughtfully. Today’s deal from a duplicate game provides a case in point. The deal was played at eight tables, and at every table the final contract was four spades by South, against which West led the queen of hearts. At seven of the tables, declarer made 10 tricks — five spades, two hearts and three clubs. Since seven declarers achieved this result, and since 10 tricks seem to be there for the taking, this would seem to be the normal outcome. But it shouldn’t be, as demon-
strated by what happened at the eighth table. First, let’s see how the play went at the other tables. South won the heart lead, cashed the A-K of spades and led a spade to the jack. Declarer then tried a club finesse, losing the queen to East’s king. At this point, the defense varied. Some Easts shifted to a diamond, and after the defenders collected two diamonds, declarer had the rest, eventually discarding the heart six on dummy’s nine of clubs. At the tables where East returned a heart, declarer similarly finished with 10 tricks. At the table where the contract failed, East found a way to give South a chance to go wrong, and it made all the difference. Here, when declarer led a club to the jack at trick five, East did not take the king. South naturally assumed that West had the king, in which case repeating the finesse was necessary and might even yield an overtrick. So declarer crossed to his hand with the heart king and led a club to the queen. This time East won, and the defenders quickly cashed a heart and two diamonds to set the contract. East’s refusal to win the first club is a play that has much to gain and little to lose. All it takes is a bit of thought and a natural reluctance to play mechanically.

Nassau County Museum Of Art Presents “Impressionism: A World View” Museum launches a new initiative to make art more accessible
HANNAH DEVLIN portwashingtonnews@antonmediagroup.com
N
assau County Museum of Art (NCMA) currently showcases artists from around the world in its exhibit titled “Impressionism: A World View.” The display focuses on the beloved art movement of impressionism. The art style is characterized by its visible brush strokes with bold, unmixed colors. The movement began in 19th century France with artists like Monet, Manet, Degas, Pissaro and Renoir. Impressionism was originally met with harsh criticism, as audiences believed that the visible lines made the work look unfinished and incomplete, but it is now a beloved and appreciated art form. While impressionism began to generate its audience, the movement began to spread to other areas internationally. Because of its origins, many impressionist exhibitions focus mainly on France and surrounding countries. However, the NCMA has provided its patrons with impressionist painters from around the world. While there are French artists displayed–notably Degas, Renoir, Pissaro and Cézanne–there are also artists from areas that are not usually renowned for their impressionism, like Vietnam, Hungary and England. “This exhibition, as noted by the title, is ‘Impressionism: A World View,’” explained NCMA’s Director of Education Laura Lynch. “The idea is that impressionism moved around the world. There were artists that came to Paris and met other artists. They were influenced, inspired by the French artists like Renoir, Monet and Degas. They got to experience the style of impressionism, and would go home to their countries of origin and paint in that style… That is what is on view.” While the exhibition pays homage to international artists and landscapes, it also pays attention to local scenery as well. One of the galleries is dedicated to paintings depicting Long Island landscapes. This aspect of the exhibit, once again, shares a different story about impressionism. “There were many artists out East,” explains Lynch, “who had travelled to Paris and met all the other impressionist artists. And just like any other new style… they got inspired and started their own schools on the island.”
The gallery at Nassau County Museum of Arts. “The Painters of Peconic” displays the beautiful scenery of the North Fork, allowing patrons to look at a familiar environment through a new lens. Another departure from the status quo is the museum’s attention to contemporary impressionism. After moving through the museum’s galleries on the first floor, the second floor of the museum hosts contemporary artwork that has similar qualities and traits to traditional impressionist artwork. These works were chosen for the exhibit because of traits including light, brushstroke and color. “We feel like they are extending, or continuing, in the tradition of impressionism and the movement,” said Lynch. “It was important for us to show the impact

of impressionism and the enduring power of impressionism–in the sense that artists now are still absorbed and focused on how to manipulate light and color and atmosphere.” All of these elements create a beautiful and well-rounded exhibit. Through this unique lens of impressionism, visitors have the opportunity to see both traditional French artists alongside international and contemporary artists. Additionally, patrons have the opportunity to see Long Island in a new light. Because the NCMA has proven to be an important resource to provide outdoor space to its visitors–especially during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic–it’s appropriate that there is an exhibition on

impressionism, an artform that values capturing the beauty of nature. After the invention of the camera in the 19th century, artists felt less concerned with capturing their subjects exactly as is, and instead they focused on capturing fleeting moments in time. With this intention shift, artists became much more occupied with capturing moments in nature, aiming to capture shifts in lighting. “There is a conversation between the work on our walls and the nature on our grounds,” said Lynch. With so many beautiful landscapes on the walls of the museum, it’s hard to ignore the beauty of the nature surrounding the castle. Alongside “Impressionism: A World View,” the NCMA has launched a new format for viewing their exhibits. Beginning with the current display, the museum has introduced QR codes next to text descriptions that will provide both a Spanish and Mandarin translation. This is an initiative that will continue to be provided moving forward. The translated tour is just one way that the museum hopes to welcome visitors of diverse backgrounds and create a more accessible space for non-English speakers. “A goaled mission of the museum,” said Lynch, “is to make the museum a welcoming environment for people of all backgrounds, interests, and abilities.” As an essential part of the community, it is important for the museum to serve all visitors that enter their grounds. In addition to the exhibit and resources above, the museum provides numerous classes and programs to its visitors. These programs are available to the public and can be found on the museum’s website, https://nassaumuseum.org/ . For anyone interested in learning more about the exhibit, the museum offers “Impressionism–A Guide to Looking” on their website with more information.

Some Standouts As Track & Field Season Winds Down Park, Conniff set school and personal records
FRANK RIZZO frizzo@antonmediagroup.com
T
here are two ways to qualify for the New York State Public High School Athletic Association Track & Field Championships: Either place first at the state qualifier, or achieve the difficult state standard at any invitational or championship meet during the season. The object is to weed out all but the elite performers. Paul Park was the sole Manhasset athlete to make the state meet, held June 10-11 at Cicero North Syracuse High School. The junior, according to boys track coach Steve Steiner, “had a spectacular weekend,” placing third in the long jump (22-4) and fourth in the triple jump (45-8½). Both were personal records. Manhasset middle distance standout Brendan Conniff, per Steiner, got the proverbial short end of the stick at the state qualifier held June 4 at North Shore High School. The senior set personal and school records in both the 800 (1:55.52) and 1600 (4:20.34), runner up in both races to Port Washington’s Colin Funk (1:55.06/4:18.26). Funk went on to the state meet. Conniff did not. In the 800, according to Steiner, “both boys had hoped to run beneath the standard of 1:54.48, However, a lower seed cut in front of everyone off the starting line, slowing the pace through the first 200 and
Brendan Conniff pulls away from the competition on the last turn to win the 1600 at the Section 8–Class A meet at Roosevelt High School on May 25.

forcing a much slower than anticipated first lap of 58; they planned 56. They still ran a negative split coming back in 57, but it wasn’t enough to overcome the slow first lap and they fell short of the standard.” On day two of the qualifier, Conniff shaved seven seconds off his p.r. in the “metric mile,” but fell short of the Division 1 (large school) state standard of 4:17.42. According to Steiner, “The standards were set from the state meet results of 2014-2019 and were not adjusted for the pandemic layoff. Basically, sprinters had no difficulty hitting those standards, but across the
state, only a handful of kids were able to meet standards in the distance and middle distance events. The training and competition lag takes longer to overcome in these areas that are dependent on building up endurance and strength over time, as well as having high level competition regularly.” Steiner said of Conniff, “He’s a gem of a kid. He did qualify for nationals and plans to race on Sunday, June 19 at the New Balance Outdoor Track & Field Championships at the University of Pennsylvania. He will do a tune up at the Long Island Meet of Champions [at St. Anthony’s High School in

Huntington] on June 15.” Results were not available at press time. Steiner also had praise for Cole Thalmheimer, who has the best freshman time in the state in the 800. He placed fifth at the Eastern States Invitational on June 5 at Iona Prep in New Rochelle, setting a p.r. in 2:00.12. “Cole ran a bit slower at the state qualifier as he did not get out fast enough,” Steiner said. “He ran again last night (at the Last Chance Meet in Massapequa on June 6) in heavy winds after having run the day before, and still recorded a 2:01.6.”
Girls Golf Team Makes Its Mark The girls varsity golf team from Manhasset Secondary School recently competed at the Nassau County tournament. Eighth graders Madison Chen and Casey Mack, sophomore Neola Low and juniors Clare D’Ambrosio and Allison Pegno combined to finish seventh in Nassau County. In addition, Mack individually finished 11th in the county, earning All-County honors and placing as a state tournament alternate. Chen individually finished fourth in the county, also earning her All-County honors. She competed at Saratoga Springs from June 4-6 and scored a 159 to place ninth overall. The district congratulates the girls varsity golf team on its achievements. —Submitted by the Manhasset Public Schools

Planet Manhasset Is Grounded In The Soil T
here are three community gardens in Manhasset, one in each of the district’s schools. A group of parents planted the gardens in 2013 and created Planet Manhasset, a School Community Association (SCA) committee that strives to foster, create, and implement ways to successfully adapt a greener living philosophy in the schools, homes and community. Since 2013, Planet Manhasset has coordinated many initiatives in the gardens and schools. Students in the Manhasset elementary schools are gaining an education in science and nutrition through their use of these community school gardens. Classes at Munsey Park, Shelter Rock and the Secondary School are utilizing the gardens on a regular basis. Their use includes planting, harvesting, weeding and observing the plants and vegetables that are thriving in the gardens. These experiences offer students a unique garden education and hands-on learning. In addition, they are learning about the importance of growing food to donate to the community. In the fall, students at all three schools spent time In the gardens. The science teacher at Munsey Park taught a “garden club” class through the SCA Extended Extra program. Students in this class harvested vegetables, planted bulbs and observed changes for the garden. Classes at both elementary schools also planted frost-hardy vegetables including kale and cabbage.

These vegetables lasted through the winter and students were able to harvest them in the late fall. Students from the Green Club at the Secondary School designed a native plant garden in the Secondary School’s garden beds. The plants were donated by ReWild Long Island, a local non-profit that encourages sustainable landscaping. Student volunteers also planted flower bulbs which would bloom in the spring. In February, Planet Manhasset initiated the “Seedling Project” in the elementary schools. Nineteen classes at Munsey Park and Shelter Rock grew seeds in egg cartons in their classrooms. The seeds they planted included broccoli, kale, chives and bok choy. Some of these seedlings were planted in the

In April, classes at both elementary schools planted herbs and vegetables. Certain classes planted seeds, while others planted seedlings. Planet Manhasset encourages the students to go out to the gardens to watch everything grow. All of the vegetables will be harvested by students and donated to Our Lady of Fatima food bank in Port Washington.
