hattanites to “trendy Rivington Street,� and just had to laugh. Circa 1980, my job at an independent film not-for-profit, about to be priced out of increasingly hip SoHo, occasionally required a visit to a sister organization located on Rivington – half a block off the Bowery, back in the days when the phrase “Bowery bum� still meant something. A short trek crosstown still meant being panhandled by winos, and Rivington Street itself was developing a reputation as downtown’s busiest drug supermarket.

The Lower East Side had by that time already morphed from a haven for Jews fleeing the pogroms in Eastern Europe into Loisaida; but gentrification rolled on, and soon Latino and other new immigrants began setting their sights on cheaper digs in Queens. That borough – populated mainly by working-class Italian and Irish families when I grew up there – has become such a multiethnic patchwork in recent decades that the volatile TV bigot Archie Bunker would no longer be able to walk out his front door without lapsing into xenophobic catatonia.

mighty sage Wikipedia flatly states that today, “Queens is the most ethnically diverse urban area in the world.� There are whole neighborhoods now that are not simply Latino or Caribbean, but specifically Dominican. Fully a quarter of the borough’s population is of Asian descent. And so on; the 2020 census will doubtless tell us a new story.

This fluxing reality, of course, makes Queens as much of a lure to modern filmmakers as Manhattan was l a s t c e n t u r y.

That’s not to say that we won’t still see scads of movies shot in Manhattan; the types of accents heard in the bodegas will continue to hint heavily at the decade in which the story is set.

But, whereas in the earlier days of moving pictures the City’s diversity was used to create atmospheres of charming small villages blossoming within a teeming metropolis, side-by-side with the penthouse lifestyles of the tap-dancing rich and shiny, younger auteurs today seem to be reveling in the tawdriness and desperation to be found in Queens, among the newly arrived and the barely

employed. For Josh and Benny Safdie, indie co-directors who grew up in the borough, its harshly neon-lit boulevards lined with strip malls, car dealerships, check-cashing joints and White Castles are the perfect setting for their ßber-edgy new caper movie, Good Time. This seems likely to prove the brothers’ breakthrough flick, affording erstwhile Twilight franchise star Robert Pattinson a chance to show that he really can act, with a vengeance. It’s as an emotional b l o o d s u c k e r, rather than an emo vampire, that the guy truly gets to, erhm, sparkle.

If your ideal caper movie is suffused with an aura of romance, sophistication and exotic locations, Good Time is not the outing for you. It’s noir at its most harsh, gritty and grimy and nervewracking, populated almost exclusively by dumb, abrasive losers, fully complicit in their own undoings. It’s visually ugly – though paced, shot and edited with admirable storytelling economy and technical skill – and propelled by a brilliantly unsettling, breakneck electronica score by Oneohtrix Point Never.

For Josh and Benny Safdie, indie co-directors who grew up in Queens, its harshly neonlit boulevards lined with strip malls, car dealerships, checkcashing joints and White Castles are the perfect setting for their Ăźberedgy new caper movie.

ALMANAC WEEKLY

September 7, 2017

Kim Novak and Jimmy Stewart star in Alfred Hitchcock's psychological thriller Vertigo, cited by the American Film Institute as the country's greatest mystery film.

best that can be said about Connie is that he seems to love and feel protective of his hapless brother, in a warped, codependent and abusive way.

Connie Nikas is not a guy you’d want protecting you; he’s a compulsive user.

Every life he touches gets dragged down into the maelstrom of his desperate impulsivity, narcissism and chutzpah. And therein lies our story: The bank robbery goes awry; Nick ends up in Rikers Island and then in a Queens hospital, from which his brother decides, plausibility be damned, to spring him. Pattinson is consistently mesmerizing as an amoral opportunist who, while not the sharpest tool in the shed, has an astonishing facility for improvising, charming and bullying his way out of the consequences of his own blundering brainwaves – up to a point.

Mid-caper, Connie’s luck runs out, with a twist that it would be a shame to spoil, and the stakes go higher and higher as the character wades ever-deeper into the Big Muddy. If there’s a moral here, it’s that perpetually acting on the spur of the moment, however creatively, is apt to get one impaled.

Chief among the collateral damage strewn in Connie’s wake are Buddy Duress as Ray, a new parolee who dives unhesitatingly back into his preconviction life of staying stoned at all times; Taliah Webster as Crystal, a bored, jaded teenager coerced into sheltering the fugitives; Barkhad Abdi as Dash, a night watchman who interrupts their search for a drugs-and-cash stash in an amusement park funhouse; and a largely wasted Jennifer Jason Leigh as Corey, Connie’s clueless girlfriend. The film’s female characters are all tossed-off sketches; nor are any of the many people of color in the cast developed much beyond being treated as tools or victims.

Pattinson’s vivid, hyper, dazzlingly foolhardy onscreen presence is front-andcenter here, and mostly what makes Good Time worth watching, along with its turnon-a-dime technical chops. The Safdie brothers’ career as a filmmaking team, unlike Connie’s as a criminal mastermind, seems to be on the upswing.

BARD CONSERVATORY TO PERFORM VERTIGO SCORE LIVE DURING FILM SCREENING

T

he career of the great American film composer Bernard Herrmann represents a pivotal moment in high culture: the point at which the best and the brightest of the high arts began to make their names and make their livings in the pop sphere, whether Hollywood or Madison Avenue. While Herrmann composed soundtracks for Citizen Kane, Taxi Driver and countless other classics, he is best-known for his association with the films of Alfred Hitchcock.

On Saturday, September 16 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, September 17 at 2 p.m. at the Fisher Center, the Bard College Conservatory of Music and Upstate Films present two special shows of Hitchcock’s Vertigo, scored by Bernard Herrmann, with full orchestra accompaniment performed live by the Bard College Conservatory of Music Orchestra and conducted by James Bagwell.

Ticket prices to this benefit for the Bard College Conservatory of Music range from $25 to $75. For more information, visit http://fishercenter.bard.edu. The Fisher Center is located on the campus of Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson.

If Rain Man were to be remade by Quentin Tarantino, the result might be something like this film. The closest approximation to a sympathetic character in Good Time is Nick Nikas (played by Ben Safdie himself ), a developmentally disabled man who is shown in its opening scene as utterly unable to grasp metaphors or empathize with other people. Nick’s cognitive therapy session is rudely interrupted by his brother Constantine (Pattinson), who thinks that therapy is bullshit and besides, he needs Nick to help him pull off what may be the worstplanned bank heist in cinema history.

STAGE Stage’s spell County Players’ Falls Theater opens 60 th anniversary season with Bell, Book and Candle revival

C

hristine Crawfis wasn’t exactly born in a trunk, but she came within five years of claiming that proud theatrical mantle. Hers is a deep and rewarding theatrical life – rewarding for her, but also for the many thousands who have benefited from that life.

Best-known in Ulster County as the managing director of the ever-popular Mohonk Mountain Stage Company, Crawfis knows more about the theater business than any dozen producers, directors, actors or stagehands you might care to audition. She has studied Directing at Boston University, been a producer of special events in Florida, served as executive director of Unison in New Paltz and is currently teaching Non-Profit Management and Strategic Fundraising at Bay Path University in Longmeadow, Massachusetts.

Crawfis has also has been involved for the past ten years with the County Players’ Falls Theater in Wappingers Falls, where she’s currently the group’s vice president.

This venerable community theater is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year: a practically unheard-of accomplishment that Crawfis is only too happy to crow about. How many institutions, after all, can claim to have survived and thriven for 60 years? And, as Crawfis will tell you, how many non-profit enterprises can

(Above): Photo of County Players' recent production of Amadeus by Jeff Giudice; (inset) photo of actress/director Christine Crawfis, who is currently the theater company's vice president, by Marlis Momber

make that claim – especially a community theater that relies exclusively on volunteer labor at every level?

Only one such enterprise comes to mind – the one whose mission has remained the same since Dwight Eisenhower was president: “ To delight, educate and challenge the community and to nurture creative expression through theatre and performing arts of the highest quality.”

She admits that there have been troubled times, times when the company’s aim fell short of sheer delight.

Asked to describe the company’s secret to survival, she takes a moment, draws in a breath and says a single word: “Passion…

There seems to have always been a sense of love at play in every aspect, from the audience to the backstage crew, the person at the box office as well as the cast.”

As excited as she sounds when

“When you walk into a theater and sit down, that audience is the only one that’s going to see that performance. Ever.

Because it changes all the time.”

The cast of County Players' new production of Bell, Book and Candle features Chelsea Petito, Alex Taylor, Dylan Parkin, Christine Bexley and Paul Coleman.

describing what the County Players have accomplished over the years, Crawfis gets rhapsodic when describing the what and the why of community theater everywhere. She has seen how critical community theater has been for young people everywhere, and how critical it remains for organizations such as the County Players to continue to attract and be available to young people. “Community theater has always been important for young people; it’s where they can find an identity or a safe place to spend their free time. It’s that that so many of them find a safe haven where they can participate in the creative process.

“Every theater is looking to involve a younger audience who may or may not have had the experience of attending live theater. A major survey discovered that those audience members who value theater as an adult had a positive experience of it as a young person… That’s one reason why getting young people into the theater is all part of creating an audience for the future.”

Teaching theater is one thing, she said.

“But when we get kids working in a show, they’re learning it at a different level; they’re living it at a different level, and

that’s really critical.”

The theater experience, she said, is participatory on both sides of the curtain, an experience that can’t be matched by television or film. “There’s something that happens – there’s an energy exchange between actors and a live audience, something very magic about that. When you walk into a theater and sit down, that audience is the only one that’s going to see that performance. Ever. Because it changes all the time. The actors and everyone involved in the production draw energy from the audience, who just gives it right back. That’s palpable, and I think that when young people experience it from both sides, they get it. They totally get it.”

The County Players’ Falls Theater will celebrate its 60th anniversary by reaching back into its production history of more than 250 plays to select its main-season shows. The first production will be Bell, Book and Candle, which opens on September 8. A special kickoff celebration will be held on September 10 at the Villa Borghese in Wappingers Falls.

Hudson Valley Wine & Food Fest in Rhinebeck

M

ight as well accept it: As Temperate Zone dwellers, it is our destiny to fatten up in the fall. That way, if we get stuck in our cars in a snowbank for three days undiscovered, we have something to burn.

Higher obesity rates among contemporary Americans are just evolution’s poky way of catching up with the Machine Age. That being said, we find ourselves armed with an ironclad rationale to spend the next few months partaking of as many as we can of the harvest festivals that abound in the Hudson Valley each autumn.

One of our deepest annual dives into the culinary and oenological cornucopia occurs this weekend at the Dutchess County Fairgrounds, as the Hudson Valley Wine & Food Fest returns for its 16th outing. There you’ll find gourmet specialty foods to pair with your choice of hundreds of wines, craft beers, ciders and distilled spirits, the vast majority of them produced in New York State.

In January 2017, InStyle magazine named the Hudson Valley Wine & Food Fest one of the “18 Best Wine Festivals across America,” and 50 New York wineries – 15 of them from the Valley itself – will be represented there this year. Microbrews are an area of increasing interest, and ten New York State breweries will be in attendance as well, along with seven cideries and 15 distilleries. The Fairgrounds are licensed as a farm market, so festgoers can actually purchase bottles of their favorites to take home after sampling, and have them set aside in the Wine Pickup Tent until they’re ready to leave. Foodies will

Chamber Players, and guest speaker Michael Harney, vice president of Harney & Sons, will talk tea lore and history while reiterating the pleasures of the world’s most prized beverage. Harney has served the family company for 25 years and is known as a master tea-buyer and -blender.

You might even want to don an outfit befitting such leisure; your average early-20th-century garden-party wear and a fancy hat will do nicely. And don’t forget to raise those pinky fingers as you sip and nibble.

The formal gardens of the Vanderbilt Mansion National Historic Site in Hyde Park are maintained by the F. W. Vanderbilt Garden Association (FWVGA), an all-volunteer group charged with rehabilitating this national treasure as closely as possible to what it looked like in the late 1930s, when Frederick Vanderbilt died. Working closely with the National Park Service, Association members have rebuilt and developed the multiple tiers of beds with mass plantings of roses, annuals and perennials, replete with a reflecting pool, fountains, statuary and shady arbors.

Originally created by a grandson of the infamous commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt, the large formal garden depicts the lifestyle of the wealthy during America’s “Gilded Age.” When the estate was sold to the federal government in 1938, the gardens went neglected for almost 50 years, until FWVGA stepped into the breach to restore the first beds.

Since then, the membership has swelled and contributed hundreds of thousands of hours in fundraising, researching garden history, planting, weeding and caring for the plants and fountains of the garden.

Their mission has been beautifully accomplished through diligence and hard work, not to mention the support

But the man who first made his industry name as a staff writer of sorts, composing hits for Patsy Cline among many others, still wields the pen as well, writing or co-writing nine songs on his 2014 release Band of Brothers.

A long-considered follow-up to 2014’s E’rebody (ignoring for a moment a few intervening EPs and singles because the lads are irrepressible), Los Doggies’ new full-length Ear Op plays in some ways like a rejoinder to and correction of its predecessor: lean in all the ways that E’rebody was opulent and overstuffed, live and dangerous in all the ways that E’rebody was pure studio indulgence and the prerogatives of do-it-yourself maximalism.

ALMANAC WEEKLY

September 7, 2017

The result of this pairing is a disciplined and Spartan record that never violates the spirit of live performance, chopsy-butimperfect and out-on-a-limb. Ear Op emphasizes the palpability and character of the band’s core sounds rather than the maximal, Baroque (and utterly delightful) excess of most of the band’s previous output. It shares at times of the loose-butright shambolic stumbling of Pavement or Built to Spill, but does so in razor-sharp 7/4 and signatures more obscure. It is both an aggressive record and a strangely vulnerable one. And it sounds amazing.

The evolution of Los Doggies is apparent on the lyrical level as well. Ear Op deals thematically – in ways both lucid and wildly indirect – with the experience and aftermath of the ear surgeries endured by brothers Jesse Stormo (guitar and vocals), Evan Stormo (drums and vocals) and not, one presumes, by bassist Matt Ross. In the past, the band was more likely to sing about music theory and farts – both perfectly defensible themes, mind you, but Ear Op absolutely represents growth and a willingness, at least, to experiment with self-seriousness.

Los Doggies celebrate the release of their bracing, impressive and moving new record Ear Op with a performance at the place where all New Paltz bands celebrate everything – Snug Harbor – on Saturday, September 9 at 11 p.m. For more information on Ear Op and Los Doggies, visit https://losdoggies.bandcamp.com.

Come autumn, you can drool over handmade guitars and mandolins at the Woodstock International Luthiers’ Showcase, and in December you can haul your tuba to SUNY-Ulster to honk out Christmas carols to your heart’s content.

And then there’s the Drum Boogie Festival, returning this weekend to Woodstock’s Andy Lee Field. Of course there has to be a daylong extravaganza in these parts devoted to world percussion: Woodstock is the home base of jazz drum guru Jack DeJohnette, after all. It’s also the headquarters of Woodstock Chimes. Several gamelan ensembles thrive at Bard College and elsewhere in the area. You can hardly attend a community event in the county seat without being serenaded by the Percussion Orchestra of Kingston (POOK), or in Rosendale by the Rosendale Improvement Association Brass Band and Social Club, which typically wields more drums than brass. On balmy summer evenings as well as on Halloween, downtown New Paltz often echoes to the sound of African drumming. Banging on stuff to make loud rhythmic noises is just an urge that comes to us naturally, from toddlerhood on.

According to press materials, in 2008 Woodstock Percussion founder Garry Kvistad (also a member of the world music ensemble Nexus Percussion) put his head together with New York State Assembly member Kevin Cahill and came up with the idea of an annual regional festival “to help develop interest and understanding for the public of percussion music and the benefits of rhythm in our lives. Percussion music is the most common form of instrumental music around the world, and yet is still not known in its entirety in many parts of the globe. There is more diversity in world percussion than any other instrument, and the Drum Boogie Festival reflects that diversity.”

The press release continues, “As it is around the world, the festival will combine drumming with singing and dance as well.”

That makes perfect sense, as there would surely be dancing in the audience if there were none happening onstage. Even if you’re a total klutz, it’s hard to restrain the urge to move around when a bunch of percussion artists start hitting their stride.

You’ll get your opportunity to boogie down with the drums when Drum Boogie 2017 gets underway on two stages in Andy Lee Field on Saturday, September 9 from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Jack DeJohnette headlines, as usual, and special guests Baird Hersey and Prana will join Nexus onstage. Also set to appear are POOK, the Creative Music Studio with jazz vibraphonist Karl Berger, the NYU Steel Drum Ensemble, the North/South Indian Music Project, the Beatbox House, the Northeast Ghana All-Stars and the Big Takeover Reggae Band. I dare you to try sitting still to all that.

Admission to this family-friendly event is free, though donations to support Family of Woodstock will be requested. Attendees are urged to bring lawn chairs and blankets. At the venue, there will be a variety of food trucks supplying carbs, calories and caffeine to help you bop till you drop – not to mention fun children’s activities.

Andy Lee Field is located on Rock City Road in downtown Woodstock. For more info on the Drum Boogie Festival, call (845) 657-0455, e-mail fatimah@chimes.com or visit www.drumboogiefestival.com.

the veteran New Paltz trio opting, for the very first time, not to self-produce.

This time, the Doggies called upon the New Paltz-based indie- and post-rock producer Kevin McMahon. McMahon is best-known for his work with the epic punk group Titus Andronicus, the avantnoise legends Swans, the clinical indie guitar-pop band Real Estate and some other nationally known acts with a mind toward distinctive guitar sonics, including the wispy and retro Widowspeak and the grotesquely-named-but-quite-lively Diarrhea Planet.

But to understand McMahon’s

surprising simpatico with the indie/prog ambitions of Los Doggies (Ear Op is a full-length record with only four songs), one might better look to McMahon’s work

as writer and guitarist in his own band, Pelican Movement, than to the bands that he is best-known for producing.

Los Doggies, like Pelican Movement, can be described as prog/rock without its customary pomposity and mythic dressing: long-form, odd in its time signatures, permissive of a great deal of dissonance and irresolution but, in its own way, quite often pretty and Beatlesque.

Los Doggies seemed to represent a kind of music that McMahon wants to hear and to make, rather than the kind that he customarily sees at Marcata, his barn studio on the outskirts of New Paltz.

The name jumps right off the poster with it sheer improbability. A vastly important underground legend of American Outsider music and acid-fueled Texas garage rock, the 13th Floor Elevators frontman Erickson also makes for one of the most unlikely comeback stories in the history of rock. No one can accurately describe the places from which he has come back.

The Meltasia lineup stays strong and surprising quite a ways down the page, including Wu Tang survivor Raekwon and British skiffle revivalists Mungo Jerry, best known for their megahit “In the Summertime.” Further down the page we find the Craig Brown Band, the solo project of Liquor Store guitarist Brown, now signed to Jack White’s Detroitcentric Third Man Records. For good campy measure, Meltasia is hosted by Pete & Pete + Randee of the Redwoods.

Last year, Meltasia was held in the highconcept setting of the long-abandoned Catskill Game Farm. Great in theory, but this year they’ve upgraded the digs to the Blackthorne Resort in East Durham.

Ticketing options start at $40 and include one- and two-day passes, as well as several tiers of luxury and lodging.

NATURE Making waves Kingston Home Port & Education Center launches Jon Bowermaster’s Hope on the Hudson film series this Saturday

J

on Bowermaster isn’t into being famous, particularly.

After a couple of decades as a world adventurer, author and filmmaker who documented Antarctica and other far-flung parts of our ocean planet on National Geographic expeditions, the Stone Ridge resident told Ulster Publishing that he had had decided that he “didn’t want to be ‘that kayak guy’ anymore.” He simply wants to save the world’s waterways – and these days, mostly the ones closest to home.

Nor does Bowermaster baldly exploit his status as rock star Natalie Merchant’s Significant Other, or his friendship with actor Mark Ruffalo that developed on the anti-fracking public speaking circuit (though the celebrity appearances in his films Dear Governor Cuomo and Dear President Obama certainly must have helped him get them widely screened).

He keeps a low personal profile and helps his more visible friends and family protect their privacy. But when it comes to corporate and political threats to the natural environment, Jon Bowermaster gets fiercely motivated.

The science behind environmental solutions

FREE PUBLIC EVENT

My Climate Change Andrew Revkin Friday, September 8 at 7 p.m.

Join the Cary Institute for a special lecture by awardwinning science journalist Andrew Revkin.

Revkin will discuss lessons learned and unlearned during his 30 years of reporting on climate change — from the North Pole to the Vatican. Now at ProPublica, Revkin was with The New York Times for two decades. From 2010-2016, he was the Senior Fellow for Environmental Understanding at Pace University.

The event will be held in the Cary Institute auditorium, located at 2801 Sharon Tpk. (Rte. 44) in Millbrook, NY. Seating is first come first served.

security at the Indian Point nuclear plant, the Tappan Zee Bridge replacement project and proposals to anchor gigantic barges indefinitely in Hudson River port towns and to build huge high-voltage transmission lines through the Hudson Valley.

Bowermaster isn’t having any of it. His films examine how these situations came to be, what dangers they pose, who’s pushing them or impeding reform.

Most of all, his mission is to empower viewers to take action: Every segment ends with contact information for decisionmakers who need to hear public opinion on these projects, and with suggestions as to what people can do in their own communities to spark positive change. “I hate documentaries that bum you out,” he said.

Accordingly, his new series currently in production, Hudson River Stories: Hope on the Hudson, accentuates the positive, calling attention to organizations and individuals who are making a difference on environmental issues in the Hudson Valley. Already completed are two

segments: City on the Water, which documents citizen action to rescue and protect the 520 miles of waterways that surround New York City, and Restoring the Clearwater, in which B o w e r m a s t e r ’s crew spent a full year following the master craftsmen who were rebuilding the sloop Clearwater, flagship of the decades-long campaign to clean up the Hudson and reconnect people to it.

Since much of the latter film was shot at the Clearwater’s winter berth, the Kingston Home Port and Education Center on the Rondout waterfront, it’s most appropriate that the Hudson River Maritime Museum, right next door, is sponsoring the first stop in a public screening tour for the new works. “Hope on the Hudson: New Films from Jon Bowermaster” begins at 4 p.m. this Saturday, September 9 in the Education Center. A panel discussion moderated by Jon Bowermaster, including representatives of organizations working toward a sustainable future for the Hudson Valley, will follow the screening.

GARDENER’S NOTEBOOK

Insectivore war How beneficial predators saved my fig harvest

S

ome of the figs – the varieties Rabbi Samuel, Brown Turkey and San Piero – started ripening last week. With their ripening, I am now in a position to claim victory over the mealybugs that have invaded my greenhouse figdom for the past few years.

Mealybugs look, unassumingly, like tiny tufts of white cotton; but beneath their benign exteriors are hungry insects. They inject their needlelike proboscises into stems, fruits and leaves and suck life from the plants – or at least, weaken the plants and make the fruits hardly edible.

Over the years I’ve battled the mealybugs at close quarters. I’ve scrubbed down the dormant plants with a toothbrush dipped in alcohol (after the plants were pruned heavily for winter). I’ve tried repeated sprays with horticultural oil. I put sticky bands around the trunks to slow the traffic of ants, which “farm” the mealybugs. And I’ve rubbed them to death with my fingers when I came across them on the stems: all to no avail. The mealybugs always made serious inroads into the harvest.

Mealybugs finally have been quelled this season thanks to another insect: the aptly named “mealybug destroyer” (Cryptolaemus montrouzieri), available from www.insectary.com. To soldier along with the mealybug destroyer, I also ordered some green lacewing (Chrysoperla rufilabris) eggs. Besides attacking the mealybugs, the lacewings prey on aphids – seizing the aphids in their large jaws, injecting a paralyzing venom into them and then sucking out their body fluids. With good reason, lacewings are also called aphid lions.

I ordered the first batch of predators in early summer. After recently noticing a buildup of mealybugs again, I ordered another batch. The mealybug destroyer and aphid lion populations may have plummeted after they ate all the bad guys, or they may have found their way to greener pastures via the many openings in the greenhouse.

The smallest amount of either pest that could be purchased could have policed a greenhouse much larger than mine, so the predators were relatively expensive: about $80 per shipment, with shipping. Still, I estimate the potential ripening of about 160 figs, which brings their cost to $1 per fig: not bad for a dead-ripe, juicy, ambrosial fruit that, with each bite, transports me back thousands of years to the Fertile Crescent, where figs originated.

To soldier along with the mealybug destroyer, I also ordered some green lacewing eggs.

A visitor to my greenhouse might have thought that it looked weedy this summer. Tall flowerstalks of Queen Anne’s lace grew with abandon; cilantro flowered, and then its seedheads flopped down willy-nilly; lettuce grew bitter as the plants bolted; and mustard greens shot up stalks capped with yellow flowers.

Come early, at 2 p.m., if you want to catch up on the earlier segments on the River at Risk series.

Admission to these programs is by a suggested donation of $5, payable at the door. The Hudson River Maritime Museum/Kingston Home Port and Education Center are located at 50 Rondout Landing.

I also encouraged beneficial insects outdoors, in my vegetable gardens, by growing – or at least, letting grow – some of these same plants.

Add to that list dill, another member of the carrot family, which I always let flower and set seed in the garden. Those seeds become next year’s dill plants with no extra effort on my part except to weed out excess self-sown seedlings.

For some reason, dill did not self-seed in the garden the past two years, so this year I bought and planted seed. “Planted” might be too specialized a term for what I did; in fact, I just tore open the packet of seeds, poured them into my hand and waved my hand as I let the seeds fly. Like magic, seeds sprouted a few weeks later.

This season’s dill not only encouraged beneficial insects and provided some ferny leaves and seedheads for flavoring, but also provided beauty. The variety was Fernleaf, which grows dwarf, compact plants that also are slower to make flowerheads. Perhaps it was the compactness of the flat heads of greenish-yellow flowers or the denser backdrop of green leaves, but the plants captured my attention every time I walked by them. Still do, because they’re still blooming.

Queen Anne’s lace also appeared in my garden with no extra effort on my part – not only from self-seeding, as a weed, but also from an occasional rogue carrot seed from those I planted. Queen Anne’s lace and carrot are the same genus and species, carrots having been selected and bred to make fatter, juicier, tastier and oranger (or, these days, purpler) roots.

Here, at least, this season was particularly welcoming of Queen Anne’s lace. The meadow next to the vegetable gardens has been dotted white with an abundance of their flowering heads.

The purpose of all these flowers was to encourage the adult mealybug destroyers and aphid lions to stick around.

NIGHT SKY

The modern fallout shelter Would the Catskills notice a North Korean attack?

T

his page periodically explores the harmful radiation on Mars, and the radiation hazards of space travel, and even the natural annual levels here on Earth. Some of the wonderful and mostappreciated reviews of my new book Zapped, like in the Wall Street Journal, specifically mention my chapters on the health effects of various unseen electromagnetic and particulate hazards that now envelop us.

But lately, people sometimes ask about North Korea. They want to know if, in an attack upon New York City, people here in Ulster County would be at risk. Although outside my field, I can actually answer this because of courses I completed in

radiological defense four decades ago. So let’s get right to it: This assumes that North Korea someday succeeds in hurling a small H-bomb at New York City, or else some terrorist group manages to sneak one into the harbor via a shipping container. The former scenario would produce the greater loss of life, simply because an airburst at a height of around 1,300 feet does more damage and produces more casualties than a ground burst. There is no sense minimizing the effects on the City. Certainly the casualties would be in the six figures, and maybe seven.

Both types of blasts create prodigious fallout. It is the fallout that is of primary concern for those more than six miles from

J.B. HILL

Ground Zero. The intensity and lethality of this radioactive material depends on the winds on the day of the blast.

We actually live in the safest possible direction from the Big Apple. The danger zone after such an explosion is to those downwind. Since our prevailing winds are westerlies, the greatest health hazard is to those on Long Island and the Connecticut coast. The second-most-common surface and high-altitude winds are from the north, which would affect those along the Jersey shore. Our own area would get lethal radiation only if the winds were southerly that day.

If so, the radiation would start to arrive three to ten hours after the blast, and consist of fine dust particles. Breathing these could deliver fatal doses, with death expected in six to eight days. The good news is that radiation diminishes fairly rapidly with time, from two separate mechanisms: Winds dissipate it, while the radiation itself decays in what’s called the seven-ten ratio. Let me use actual figures.

A fatal dose for half the exposed people is around 400 rems. And let us say that the initial radiation level here is 2,000 rems. Now, in seven hours this will naturally diminish to one-tenth

that value, or 200 rems per hour. You still don’t want to breathe this, because you’d experience radiation sickness and probably would get cancer in ten to 20 years. But after seven times seven – or 49 hours, or two days – this level will further diminish by another tenth, to just 20 rems an hour. (Actually, you don’t want to breathe that, either, even though it’s just one-twentieth of a fatal exposure.)

So if you can hide out and wait another seven-factor – meaning two days times seven, which means two weeks – the level will be down to two rems an hour.

And now you can venture outdoors a few hours a day, gather food or firewood or whatever. (In another “times-seven,” or 14 weeks, the flux is down to 0.2 rems, and probably much less than that thanks to wind dissipation.)

The main takeaway is that those living here must either quickly flee north (or preferably northwest, like along the Thruway, and take your chances with traffic) or else hide out for two weeks after a nuclear blast and not breathe the air. You don’t need a “blast shelter,” because people living here are so far from the blast that you wouldn’t even know it had happened. But you do need a fallout

BOOK

ASTRONOMER BOB BERMAN GIVES THE LOWDOWN ON INVISIBLE LIGHT IN NEW BOOK ZAPPED

L

ongtime Woodstock resident, astronomer and popular science commentator and columnist Bob Berman’s eighth and latest book is titled Zapped: From Infrared to X-rays, the Curious History of Invisible Light. Berman’s history and explanation of the kinds of light that fall on the imperceptible ends of the spectrum (either too fast or too slow to be seen by humans) are exactly the kind of science storytelling that his fans and readers have come to expect: meticulous and thorough in its science, breezy and personable in its tone. It is not just accessible, but gripping in the way that it gathers the strands of difficult scientific concepts, cosmic realities, biographies and histories and practical applications into one multimode, complex-but-easygoing narrative.

The revelations and applications of invisible light appear to Berman as a pivotal, thoroughly modern development not only in terms of scientific understanding, but also in their impact upon the texture of our lives. It is easy to see why the subject appealed to Berman as one of great popular relevance and necessity.

The first repeatable scientific demonstration of unseen light – infrared, by William Herschel, a German musician living in England – happened relatively recently, in the big picture: in the 1780s. From there, the epiphanies snowballed as knowledge will, in the process transforming science and setting the stage for many of the technological developments that so thoroughly distinguish our age from the rest of recorded history.

Invisible light, Berman correctly assayed, is one of those kernel “secret histories” that defines an age and a worldview, whether or not the age and the world know it.

Part of the charm of Zapped lies in its sympathetic micro-biographies of the scientists implicated in the story of light, from the famous and celebrated to the tragic and obscure, from Zapped: From Infrared to X-rays, the Herschel to Victor Hess and beyond.

Curious History of Invisible Light by Berman is careful to observe that Bob Berman (Little, Brown, $26, ISBN while Herschel (who is more famous 978-0-316-31130-4) for discovering Uranus) might have been the first to demonstrate invisible light, other scientists had intuited something fitting its description, delineating the precise shape of the piece missing from our understanding. Among those, Berman lavishes generous narrative attention upon the French physicist, mathematician and author Émilie du Châtelet – best-known today as a translator of Newton and as Voltaire’s lover – who had hypothesized the agency of invisible light in her 1737 paper “Dissertation on the Nature and Propagation of Fire.” Her story coupled, in the same chapter, with that of Herschel’s sister and lab partner Caroline, illustrates Berman’s ongoing effort to correct the overarching gender bias of science history.

Structurally, Zapped appears as a survey of the far ends of the light spectrum, moving not so much left to right through frequency but through time, in order of discovery, from infrared through ultraviolet and radio waves to gamma rays and subsequent science fiction-into-fact: 20th-century efforts to harness the powers of the invisible. This permissive chronological structure – which is easily and often suspended while Berman wanders off into whatever – is a great service to readers like Yours Truly whose mind is too often blown and whose grasp too often exceeded by the lucid presentation of science. But, like light, there is much more design to Zapped than at first meets the eye.

Berman begins with foundations and first principles, defining the nature of light in concise and lucid ways while dealing also with some of the conundrums – for

shelter. That’s a refuge with sufficient water, canned or dried food and safe air to last you and your companions two full weeks.

The ideal place would be partly or wholly underground, which means a basement. If you have a basement, you can make it into a fallout shelter rather easily. Here’s how: Yes, you need it stocked with sufficient water, unless your house has a well and also an electricity supply if the grid has gone down (very likely), such as a backup generator. But the most critical issue is the air. Every basement has leaks. How do you stop contaminated air from filtering in during those two weeks?

The shelter standards of the Israeli government call for a fresh air supply of 60 cubic feet a minute for up to 19 people in your shelter. For around $2,000, you can purchase an air filtration unit that takes in outside air (through a hole drilled through your basement wall) and then fully filters and screens it from everything harmful. Using AC power and a DC battery backup, it then supplies 60

cubic feet of good air per minute, and automatically does so with overpressure.

The overpressure is important. This means that your basement (with all doors leading upstairs closed and sealed with duct tape) now has a slightly higherpressure air than the atmosphere outside your house. Thus, air will slowly leak from inside to outside. No outside air can fight the overpressure to find its way to the inside.

Bottom line: For about $2,000 (e.g.: www.americansaferoom.com/nbc-airfilter) you can make your home into a shelter for 19 people. Of course, this setup must be installed ahead of time.

Anyone who does this would easily survive anything that North Korea decides to do.

Am I advocating this? Well, I’ve been tempted, I’ll admit it. But I probably won’t do it. So don’t come knocking.

PORTRAIT BY MAURICE QUENTIN DE LA TOUR

Part of the charm of Zapped lies in its micro-biographies of the scientists implicated in the story of light including the French physicist, mathematician and author Émilie du Châtelet. She is best-known today as a translator of Newton and as Voltaire’s lover, but du Châtelet hypothesized the agency of invisible light in her 1737 paper “Dissertation on the Nature and Propagation of Fire.”

example, particle versus wave and quantum subjectivity – that inform so many of Zapped’s themes. Some chapters break from the narrative flow entirely to supply enriching context or a kind of immersive, experiential science writing that I can only call “atom’s-eye.” Consider, for example, the incongruous-but-wonderful Chapter 8, an interruptive four-page tone-poem called “The Exploding Sun” that references the old hippies of Woodstock as it documents the oneness of energy from energy’s point of view. It illustrates Berman’s gift for the vivid narration of theoretical science without grandiosity or hyperbole. The story he tells is astounding, but Berman himself remains cool.

Berman’s allocation of narrative energy is driven by many factors, but foremost among them is relevance to the reader – in other words, practicality in its various forms. This explains why the nature and history of ultraviolet – which Berman describes as the most dangerous and the most necessary invisible light – receives a disproportionate royal treatment. Similarly, Berman gets our obsession with both technology and with mystery, and Zapped is packed with delightful, on-topic meditations on our devices and instruments, as well as on ESP and aliens.

To call Bob Berman’s writing style breezy, while not inaccurate, barely does justice to the wonder and efficiency of his prose style, his gift for seamless narrative integration. He moves from thumbnail biography to micro-narratives of chemical and physical processes, paced with sparing-but-effective personal anecdote, piercing social analysis and the poetic rhapsodies of the mind on fire with the wonders of reality as revealed by science. It’s a rather brilliant balancing act – all the more because these mind-altering revelations flow with such folksy and comforting familiarity.

ERICA’S CANCER JOURNEY:

ABC: Awesome Basement Cleanout

KIDS' ALMANAC

O

ne of my doctors asked if I have a list of things I’d like to do or see before I pass. To her surprise, I responded immediately: “Yes! I want to clean out my basement!”

I have lived a full life, and I continue to do so now. Every week seems infused with something new and unexpected and interesting that crosses my path, like meeting my long-term voice crush Rick Zolzer, announcer and vice president of the Hudson Valley Renegades! But as I look ahead to my eventual death and work on Project Basement, I find it surreal to survey these decades, one busted-up cardboard box or overstuffed plastic storage bin at a time.

These portals offer gifts of memory: my first job résumé, created on a typewriter; loving, shaky handwritten letters from now-deceased grandparents; three copies of What Color Is Your Parachute?; countless articles to “read later,” such as “How to Prevent Cancer” or “Declutter Your Basement in 10 Easy Steps”; a broken Dora the Explorer indoor bowling game; and a zillion photos spanning my entire life, from seven-year-old me at Fort Ticonderoga with my family, to shots of my own children since pregnancy.

This is not my first basement rodeo. I have hired countless SUNY-New Paltz students for a number of jobs over the years, especially for childcare and house organizing (here’s the hiring link: https://newpaltz.studentemployment. ngwebsolutions.com/Cmx_Content. aspx?cpId=3). But that was then, when I thought I had practically forever to complete Project Basement. Now, I’m racing against the clock, and I am finally making hard choices to get past, “Hmm, not sure, I’d better keep it here under Miscellaneous.”

But I find it impossible to clear out and organize the basement by myself. I am incredibly fortunate to have a team of amazing people who are coming over to sort, schlep and most importantly, help me stay on-task. My husband is involved in this cleanout, too – mostly boring things with countless cables that all look exactly the same, along with disposing of bag after bag at the transfer and recycling station.

One friend not only digitized my kids’ artwork, but she also created photobooks of them, which she loves making, and I find overwhelming. I also play copious amounts of the Hamilton Mixtape to keep

Walk & Wade at Esopus Meadows

I

s your family in chaos adjusting to the September school schedule scramble? Wishing that you and your crew could reboot, release parent/kid tension and relax a little? Then it sounds like Scenic Hudson’s Esopus Meadows Walk & Wade event is just what you need! This Saturday, September 9 from 2 to 4 p.m., join other families for learning about plants and animals in relation to climate and season change while walking along the new phenology nature trail; and collect (then release) river critters captured in large seine nets as part of the citizen science movement.

Walk & Wade is a free, family-friendly event for all ages and is part of the Hudson Valley Ramble. Esopus Meadows is located at 257 River Road in Ulster Park. For more information, call (845) 473-4440 or visit http://bit.ly/2wGLCCU. – Erica Chase-Salerno

my groove while refueling with plenty of snacks. The more I accomplish in each three-hour session, the more fired up I am to do more.

The keys for me to see Project Basement through to totality are: getting advice from creative friends when I get stuck about how to handle categories such as the boxes of kid art or the sea of photos; getting consistent help to keep going; and accepting what’s true now, not what was.

I kept our craft closet stocked for years, despite my kids’ not having made anything at home for the past few years. Now I have room for office supplies that always used to be hard to find (also snacks).

I feel freer, I breathe easier, and my family expresses real relief knowing that this task is not left for them to do after I go. It’s as easy as ABC!

Local cancer resources My two local favorite cancer resources are the Sparrow’s Nest and Breast Cancer Options, and I’m excited to share them here with you.

Sparrow’s Nest feeds families. Here is its mission statement: “Sparrow’s Nest of the Hudson Valley provides two meals, once a week, to the families of caregivers and children diagnosed with any type of cancer. Caregivers are defined as legal guardians of children, under the age of 18, living in the home. Caregivers and/ or children diagnosed with any cancer that requires chemotherapy, radiation or surgery qualify. All recipients must live within a 20-mile radius of the charity’s Health Department-approved kitchen in Hopewell Junction.”

Our family has been a grateful recipient

of Sparrow’s Nest meal deliveries. It’s one less thing to think about; the food helps us save some money because it’s all free; and I feel more connected to community, between the homestyle meals and the personable drivers who deliver them to our home each week.

Here’s a fun, family-friendly way to support this charity: The Sparrow’s Nest Super Hero 5K & Family Fun Day takes place on Sunday, September 10 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at James Baird State Park, located at 14 Maintenance Lane in Pleasant Valley. The cost is $20 for children 12 and under; $35 for runners 13 and older; and a $30 “hero discount” for military, first responders, medical personnel and Team Sparrow 2017 runners. For more information, to register, to donate or to sponsor, call (845) 2049421 or visit https://sparrowsnestcharity. org/event/sparrows-nest-super-hero-5kfamily-fun-day-2017.

Breast Cancer Options supports people with breast cancer and their families.

Through conferences, support groups, the annual breast cancer retreat at Omega, Camp Lightheart for children with a parent with breast cancer at Omega, advocacy, and more and more and more, this organization has helped our family from the very beginning.

When you’re wondering where to turn for ideas or information, or you need a hand understanding or communicating with your doctor, Breast Cancer Options (BCO) is with you.

If you know anyone with breast cancer, BCO is a terrific resource to share, and there happens to be a family-friendly fundraiser to support them this week!

Come to BRAWL (Broads’ Regional Arm-Wrestling League) on Thursday,

September 14 at 7 p.m. at the Water Street Market in New Paltz. Bring your family, friends, lots of $1 and $5 bills for “bets” and your penchant for fun!

Here’s how it works: Volunteers who identify as female create a character name and coordinating costume; they recruit women, men, children and youth for a “posse,” where they dress according to that character’s theme, and they get the crowd hyped to support their arm-wrestler with as many dollars as they can collect, in the form of “bets” against the opponent. But all the money goes into the same pot to support the cause of the night, which in this case is Breast Cancer Options!

Brigantine St. Lawrence puts in at the Rondout So, in case anyone else was wondering, Brigantine is totally not Brigadoon. A brigantine is a two-masted ship; Brigadoon is a story set in Scotland. Have you ever heard of a brigantine before? Well, you can feast your eyes on one right now in Kingston!

The Hudson River Maritime Museum hosts the Canadian brigantine St. Lawrence this Thursday through Sunday, September 7 to 10, and you can see all 60 feet of it right from the dock. Want an even-closer look? Deck tours are available only on Thursday,

MT. GULIAN, HISTORIC HUGUENOT STREET MARK NYS WOMEN’S SUFFRAGE CENTENNIAL 1920: the year that Q-Tips, the hairdryer and Band-Aids were invented. And on August 26, 1920, US women were finally granted the right to vote. But New York State was ahead of the curve, legally granting women’s voting rights in 1917! This weekend, two of our area historic sites are celebrating this 100-year anniversary with special events.

On Sunday, September 10 from 1 to 4 p.m., the Mount Gulian historic site presents the family-friendly program, “Women: Their Rights and Nothing Less.” This potent time in our history is told “directly” by famous suffragettes Lucretia Mott and Alice Paul, and guests can even converse with them during intermission. The cost is $12 for adults, $10 for seniors, $8 for ages 12 to 18, $4 for ages 6 to 11 and free for children 5 and under. Preregistration is strongly recommended.

Mount Gulian is located at 145 Sterling Street in Beacon. To register or for more information, call (845) 831-8172, e-mail info@mountgulian.org or visit http://mountgulian.org/events.html#sept.

Have you heard about Historic Huguenot Street’s monthly event, “In Her Words: A Women’s History Tour”? You can catch the next one this Sunday, September 10 from 2 to 3 p.m., departing from the DuBois Fort Visitor Center. (Pro tip: Get there a little early and challenge your kids to discover the year the fort was built, visible along the windows of the street side of the building.) Guests visit four of the Huguenot houses while learning about a host of women who made a difference in our local history, such as Eliza Varick Silvernail Ackert (1830-1916), the first female editor of the original New Paltz Times!

General admission costs $15, and $13.50 for seniors, children under 12, military families and donors of $50 or more during 2017. Historic Huguenot Street is located at 81 Huguenot Street itself, and parking is available on Broadhead Avenue in New Paltz. Can’t make it this Sunday? Register for the October 8, 11 a.m. tour!

Puppet Workshop at Unison There are two types of people in the world: crafters and non-crafters.

But here’s some surprising common ground: puppets! Puppets can be as detailed or as simple as we would like.

For the craft-averse, like me, anything becomes a puppet if you put googly eyes on it! Do you have fond memories of puppets in your own life? How about Lamb Chop in 1957? From Punch & Judy to Alf to Kermit the Frog, these icons of childhood carry lasting impressions.

How would you and your family like to venture into the world of puppets? You can even march with the puppets in the Labor & Sanctuary Parade and Festival the very next day! Come to the Unison Art Center’s Kids’ Puppet Workshop on

Mushroom walks in Saugerties, Canaan I am so taken by Sylvia Plath’s poem “Mushrooms,” which includes the lines:

“Diet on water/On crumbs of shadow/ Bland-mannered, asking/Little or nothing./So many of us!/So many of us!”

Do you diet on mushrooms? Curious to look for some, to learn more about them? I’m always envious of people who confidently forage mushrooms. Mine mostly come in the form of chicken marsala or a pizza topping. Here are two opportunities to join others in a little bit of hands-on mycology: On Saturday, September 9 at 9 a.m., the Esopus Creek Conservancy leads a Mushroom Ramble as part of the Hudson River Valley Ramble. Bring your journals, identification books and cameras, but leave your forks at home, because there’s no mushroom-picking on this trek. This free walk is family-friendly and open to all ages, but preregistration is required, with a maximum of 20 people. The meetup spot is the northeast corner of the Saugerties Plaza (near the Credit Union) on Route 9W, just south of the Village of Saugerties, and participants will carpool to the location. For more information or to register, e-mail schorvas@gmail.com or visit www.esopuscreekconservancy.org.

Looking for something fun-gi to do this weekend? On Saturday, September 9 at 10 a.m., join the Columbia Land Conservancy for a Mushroom Ecology Walk at the Schor Conservation Area. Participants of all ages will learn about mushrooms and how to identify them, including perhaps that adorable red one with white dots that local artist Cindy Hoose makes out of felt. This walk is free and open to the public, and registration is required. The Schor Conservation Area is located at 58 Shoreview Drive in Canaan.

BREAD & PUPPET BRINGS OUR DOMESTIC INSURRECTION CIRCUS TO HUDSON RIVERFRONT PARK THIS FRIDAY

A

return to laughter is always called for when the “urgencies and absurdities of a political moment” threaten to bring you down. To that end, Time & Space Limited (TSL) presents the Bread & Puppet Circus down on the riverfront in Hudson this Friday evening for a thought-provoking romp guaranteed to lighten things up a bit.

Our Domestic Insurrection Circus is a show that Bread & Puppet has staged this past summer in Vermont, where the socially outrageous puppet theater is based. Throughout its 50-year history, the troupe has performed a colorful mishmash of politically critical, folkloric-like tales set to music and dance – and more than a bit of slapstick – to protest against and comment on some of our society’s most urgent issues. In Bread & Puppet-land, militarism, capitalism and ecological decline appear to have a common denominator: greed, which affects us all in one way or another.

Bread & Puppet’s giant papier-mâché and cardboard characters are recognized all over the world for their spectacular representations of archetypal players in the big picture, such as the washerwomen in the guise of the National Demolition and Composting Force, a giant blue pageant puppet representing water protectors and the decapitalization decapitations of capitalist monsters. In other words: the commoners against the big, anonymous bad guys in charge. Where else will you see the washerwomen triumph over the billionaires?

With Our Domestic Insurrection, Bread & Puppet hopes to inspire the public to rebel and “underthrow the current system from the toes up.” The troupe’s founder and director, Peter Schumann, says that they want to create the “possibilitarian models of the new: the sourdough, the potato patches of the new.” What does this mean? What is the nature of a “possibilitarian sunrise”? Could it be the emergence of a new political party, the Possibilitarians, who have a platform that includes promoting the “thousand alternatives” to the capitalist empire system, as well as “restoring the sky to its advisory capacity for all aspects of humdrum life”?

Like politically incorrect cartoons and other traditional and satirical performance artforms (think court jesters and clowns) that often step over the line of propriety, Bread & Puppet is widely celebrated for its street-theater brand of performance, prodding audiences to laugh at predicaments and face challenges head-on. The troupe pokes fun, gets overly dramatic to make a subtle point and activates an appropriate sense of outrage – perhaps even a sense of validation in our communal lack of control.

Says TSL’s Linda Mussman, Bread & Puppet has come to the region every year for the past 20 springs. “This was a surprise; they’re here now to participate in a march concerning the closing of Attica Prison. They wanted to stop by if we had the opportunity to host them. I thought it’d be perfect down on the Hudson waterfront, because it’s more public. They can pull in and use their bus as the backdrop. It will be a great opportunity to see their best and biggest show. They’re fantastic. It’s a perfect time for Bread & Puppet. When the political climate is generally choking us, Bread & Puppet is always good medicine to counter the negative spirits in the world. Peter has such great messages, and he’s such a creative genius – one of the great artists of our time.”

Stick around for Bread & Puppet’s famous sourdough rye bread with garlic aïoli after the show. Mussman and TSL co-founder Claudia Bruce’s food-truck buddies will be on hand with delicious edibles for purchase. Plus, Bread & Puppet’s Cheap Art will be available for sale.

Send dry-weather vibes into the universe, people. Bread & Puppet’s creations are too big and perishable for a rainy day.

Two good things: The show is suitable for all ages; and no one will be turned away for lack of funds. The suggested donation is $10; $20 sponsors get a reserved seat; kids under 13 get in free.

– Ann Hutton Bread & Puppet Circus, Friday, September 8, 6 p.m., $20/$10, Henry Hudson Riverfront Park, Hudson; (518) 822-8100, http://timeandspace.org/calendar/bread-and-puppet-theater-%e2%80%a2-our-domestic-insurrection-circus, www.breadandpuppet.org.

The lecture will be held in the Community Room of the Saugerties Public Library, located at 91 Washington Avenue in the Village of Saugerties.

LaFiandra will tell the story of how her parents bought an old hunting lodge perched on the ridge overlooking the Esopus Creek as a summer residence in the ‘40s. Swimming in the creek and hiking to Glenerie Falls via a “goats’ path” were the highlights of summer. But when her mother broke her ankle one summer, her engineer father – an immigrant from Italy – built a funicular railroad so his wife could still spend summer days by

the creek. Many local tradesmen from Saugerties, Mt. Marion and Glasco were instrumental in making this dream a reality, and locals driving along Route 9W in the ‘50s, ‘60s and ‘70s (before the trees grew too densely) marveled at what looked like stairs going up the mountain.

All Friends of Historic Saugerties events are free of charge to attend and open to anyone interested in history. More information is available by calling the library at (845) 246-4317, or look for the Friends of Historic Saugerties group on Facebook.

he Reher Center for Immigrant Culture and History, a project of the Jewish Federation of Ulster County, recently opened a new exhibit titled “Rising Time” in the Matthewis Persen House Museum at 74 John Street in Kingston. The exhibit centers on the extended Frank and Ade Reher family, who lived and worked on lower Broadway for almost a century. In 2004, when Hyman Reher donated the property, once a bakery, to the Federation for conversion into a museum and cultural center, many artifacts were unearthed, revealing fascinating evidence of the lives of its owners.

The Rehers, Russian Jews who became naturalized citizens, purchased the building on the corner of Broadway and Spring Street in 1907. The neighborhood was, by then, a multiethnic mix of Old- and New-World folks, glad to have a kosher bakery nearby. The large family lived above on the second floor; the third-floor tenant was a Jewish ritual meat-slaughterer. The enterprise thrived into the mid-20th century, serving local customers newspapers, cigarettes and canned goods along with their famous breads and rolls.

Family photographs, bakery-related items and private papers of the Rehers (along with items probably originating with former Irish and Dutch owners) have been catalogued and digitized by archivist Samantha Gomez-Ferrer. Interpretive planner Sarah Litvin worked with Jackie Bateman and Taylor Bruck to mount the exhibit in the Persen House Museum, which often collaborates with other museums to bring exhibits to Uptown Kingston where foot traffic is vigorous.

Tracking the history of the Rondout District and telling the stories of both change and continuity in the neighborhood, the exhibit demonstrates the diverse social and commercial infrastructure of Kingston. From the time James Van Buren opened his leather goods business at this address in the midst of a thriving commercial port district in 1883, to the post-urban-renewal efforts of preservation in the recent decade, the property has survived.

The public is invited to a special Curator’s Talk this Saturday, September 9 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Litvin will be on hand to share some of the amazing finds that she and Gomez-Ferrer uncovered this summer at the site. At noon, she will present a formal overview of the exhibition, along with the Reher Center’s recent research and future plans to open the historic site for tours and programming in the fall.

Kingston residents who remember shopping at the Reher Bakery are encouraged to come in and add to an oral history archive, named “The Sunday List.” If you have memories of the Reher family and their longtime enterprise, you can share them on video and audio recorders, or with pencils and paper if you prefer. Or contribute your recollections at sundaylist.rehercenter@gmail.com. Become a documented part of history with the “Rising Time” exhibit!

Exhibit hours at the Matthewis Persen House Museum are Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. or by appointment. “Rising Time” is made possible in part through support from the Ulster County Cultural Services & Promotion Fund (administered by Arts Mid-Hudson), and will run through September 16.

Works Art Project during the New Deal, and worked closely with Franklin D. Roosevelt to design and create the murals at the Hyde Park and Rhinebeck Post Offices.

Woodcuts and paintings from both Dows and Barrett will be shown together in the exhibition.

The exhibit is co-curated by Peggy LaBelle from the Consortium of Rhinebeck History and Hudson Valley muralist Franc Palaia, along with Joanna Frang, the executive director for the Barrett Art Center. LaBelle will give an illustrated talk about artist Olin Dows on Saturday, September 9 from 3 to 4 p.m. A reception will follow. The event is free and open to the public.

Artwork by Dows has been gathered from private collections, including prints and paintings from his time in Mexico and South America and paintings rescued from a fire, complete with charred edges.

In the 1930s, Dows headed the government program that commissioned artwork for post offices and courthouses constructed during the New Deal. To stimulate interest in this art, Dow’s agency encouraged artists to seek out local ideas and subject matter for their murals.

Barrett was a muralist for the Treasury Relief Art Project and the WPA Federal Art Project in the early 1930s. When he came home afterward to his native Poughkeepsie, he expressed his idealistic nature and desire for a better society by creating a community art organization, founding the Dutchess County Art Association (DCAA) in his own home on Noxon Street. After his death, his sister Betty continued to live in the house until she died in the 1960s. She willed the house to the Dutchess County Art Association that her brother had founded, and it became the community art center that Thomas Barrett had envisioned. Today it is known as the Barrett Art Center and offers art exhibitions, lectures and classes.

The exhibit is on view alongside solo shows and a juried members’ show with works selected by Hudson Valley artist Staats Fasoldt.

YET Teens have traveled to NYC Off-Broadway theaters to perform, while younger YET kids are supported to collaborate, find new friends, and think outside the box - using different forms of expression as part of their theater-making -- like original video and recorded music. Each play is as different and unique as its members.

YET enrollment is now open through the end of August and programs begin the week of September 14th. Each group is small – so spaces fill quickly.

This year’s Institute will providetwo YET Teen Ensemble Groups (for middle and high schoolers), and one group for younger YETis (4th – 6th graders). YET takes place on the campus of High Meadow School at 3643 Main Street, Stone Ridge.
