fall in love with our autumn all in the Sullivan Catskills, when the air is crisp and the color of the mountains become a painting waiting to be explored. A trip on the Upper Delaware Scenic Byway brings adventure and exploration at every turn where the hamlets of Barryville, Narrowsburg, and Callicoon offers unique lodging, dining, and hiking options to enjoy the unparalleled views of fall foliage.

With the Delaware River and the Catskill Mountains meeting in the Sullivan Catskills, fall foliage begins in mid-September with the last of the area changing through the later part of October. Fall brings incredible hiking opportunities to experience the region’s beautiful fall foliage firsthand. Try seeing the fall foliage from a bird’s view as you rush down a 3000’ zip line. Take a kayak or canoe one last time down the Delaware or cast a line on the Beaverkill or Willowemoc rivers.

Farm markets offer their very best in the fall with the freshest produce for you to shop or experience at an extraordinary number of farm-to-table style restaurants.

walk this way he Callicoon ArtWalk will be held on Saturday, October 12 from noon-8 p.m. If you are a local artist and have work you would like displayed or if you would like to be involved as a volunteer please email events.callicoon@gmail.com.

The Callicoon Artwalk is a platform for showcasing local art, theater, dance, music, poetry and film. It is a free event and a major force for developing cultural initiatives in Callicoon and the County.

Businesses throughout the hamlet of Callicoon will display work by local artists, and the event will highlight the arts in unconventional spaces throughout the hamlet including storefronts and public areas.

This year FarmArts Collective will perform excerpts from their newest play –– SHAKESPEARE ON THE FARM directed by Tannis Kowalchuk, in locations throughout the hamlet.

The ensemble will also be offering a stiltwalking workshop in Callicoon Creek Park, with stilts generously donated by NACL. The Callicoon Theater will screen a block of short films curated by Elizabeth Ennis. In the afternoon you can catch a screening of the full-length documentary “My Autonomous

There will also be live performances by two local dance companies, LAVA Dance and the Catskill Dance Company. Both will be showcasing original choreography.

Live music can be heard at various locations throughout Upper and Lower Main Streets. A Poet’s corner will feature local writers. Creative games to open your imagination will take place at Adella Dori Cafe. A paintby-numbers scavenger hunt will delight visitors, while a community art project at the Train Depot will be created throughout the day by anyone willing to pick up a brush.

dreaming in pottery story by Joseph Abraham photos by Joseph Abraham and Dana Duke hen you meet Carolyn Duke, owner of Duke Pottery, there’s a good chance she’ll have clay in her hands.

She has always been drawn to the arts. Duke attended a fine arts school in the city, where she did a lot of painting. Later as a full-time mom, Duke attended a mother and son pottery class.

She enjoyed the experience so much that she decided she needed to come back on her own.

Twenty-six years ago Duke and her family relocated to Sullivan County. A few years later, she decided to be part of the Catskill Art Society’s Studio Art Tour. When she started selling her work, she decided to stay open.

And because she had the space, she invited other makers to be part of the studio, especially local farmers.

What started as a hobby quickly turned into Duke’s full-time profession, and she’s since made thousands of pieces, ranging from bowls, vases, plates and dinnerware.

Her method of choice is hand building.

“I can do this anywhere,” she said. “I like starting with a ball of clay and seeing what happens. I figured if I got tired of it I’d switch to the wheel.

But I never got tired of hand building. The more I do it, the more I love it. Every day I start my day with clay.”

Her love of pottery stretches beyond the finished product.

“Artists love the process just as much as the product,” Duke says. “How you get there, I enjoy that.”

That love is reflective in her work.

It’s important to Duke that she uses natural tools. Some of her pieces have been shaped with a coconut shell, petrified avocado and a variety of continued on page 16

You won’t find pieces like the ones made by Carolyn Duke anywhere else. She loves to use natural tools, which gives her work a unique and eyecatching look. Duke Pottery offers a variety of pieces, some which are great for decoration and others make for really cool dinnerware. Her work is a great addition to any home.

“It’s very important to me that my work looks different than the work of other people,” she says.

Duke’s creativity is also on display during the firing process. She’s fired some pieces in a metal trash can, and others are done in a Raku kiln.

Duke Pottery is currently open by appointment, so make sure to call ahead and set up a time to swing by. At the shop you’ll not only find Carolyn’s one of a kind pottery, but some incredible work from local artists, including her husband Dana, an accomplished photographer.

They also carry products from local farms (maple syrup, raw honey, wool, fresh pasta, lotions, soaps, jams and more). It’s a great time to pay a visit because … as they say … it’s never too early to get a start on your holiday shopping. Not to mention there are few places better than Duke’s property to experience the beautiful Catskill fall foliage.

And who knows, maybe you’ll join the many returning faces to Duke Pottery.

“It’s very gratifying to me when people visit every year,” says Duke. “Whoever they gave that [initial] piece of pottery to wants another.

It’s nice when people appreciate your work.”

In addition to the great pottery, if you visit the Duke’s property, you’ll get spectacular views of fall foliage in the Catskills. It will certainly take your breath away.

Carolyn Duke’s love of pottery started with one class when she was living in the city. It has now morphed into her full-time profession. When you pay her a visit, feel free to ask questions about each piece and the process behind how it took shape.
