GLASSMAKING DEMOS ABOARD GLASSBARGE GlassBarge will stop in Poughkeepsie on June 8 through 10, in Kingston on June 15 to 17 & Catskill on June 19

T

he Corning Museum of Glass is a must-see stop if you’re touring New York’s Southern Tier or the Finger Lakes, but Corning is a bit of a schlep from the Hudson Valley for a day trip. Now, in honor of the 2018 bicentennial of the Erie Canal, and the 150th anniversary of the relocation of the Brooklyn Flint Glass Company to Corning, this center of the US glassmaking industry is bringing its fascinating art right to us, via a one-of-a-kind floating venue called GlassBarge. This 30-by 90-foot steel canal barge has a glassblowing demonstration studio built-in, and it’ll be on tour in the Hudson Valley in June.

GlassBarge will be open for free public deck tours each day, and provide free glassblowing demonstrations from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. All demos are approximately 30 minutes long, and seating is limited, so guests are strongly encouraged to register online for specific demonstration locations and times.

Launched in Brooklyn Bridge Park on May 17, GlassBarge has been making its way up the Hudson. It will stop at Poughkeepsie’s Waryas Park June 8 through 10, the Hudson River Maritime Museum on Kingston’s Strand June 15 to 17 (joined by the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum’s replica canal schooner Lois McClure) and Historic Catskill Point on June 19. It will then travel north on the Hudson, then westward along the Erie Canal before making its way to the Finger Lakes.

Brian Wilson to perform Pet Sounds at UPAC The Bardavon presents Brian Wilson performing the Beach Boys’ epochal classic Pet Sounds with former bandmates Al Jardine and Blondie Chaplin at the Ulster Performing Arts Center (UPAC) in Kingston on Sunday, July 22 at 7 p.m. There is little left to be said of Brian Wilson’s impact on popular music in general and of this masterpiece in particular. The music continues to be the rarest example of an achievement equally revered by the general public and by the avant-garde.

Talk on Dress Reform movement this Sunday “UnderWhere?” ask the Friends of Clermont. The Dress Reform movement of the mid-19th century hoped to liberate women from the most limiting aspects of their clothing. It was symbolized by the adoption of a shorter skirt over loose pants or “bloomers,” but it also encompassed other changes more intimately inside a woman’s layers of clothes. Other reform movements, including the women’s suffrage movement, adopted the Bloomer costume as a representation of their ideals. The reform dress inspired intense controversy, and led Americans to question gender roles and expression.

controversy, comparing the differences between fashionable dress and reform dress of the 1850s and linking them to the social movements that changed women’s lives for generations to come.

Augmented with dress reproductions and ample illustrations, this talk takes place on Sunday, June 10 at the Clermont State Historic Site at 1 Clermont Avenue in Germantown. Admission costs $10 for members and $12 general. For more information, visit www.friendsofclermont.org.

MOUNTAIN JAM 2018

40 bands in 3 days on 3 stages, June 15-17 Top left: The Mountain Jam scene; Top right: Jack Johnson; Bottom right: Kurt Vile; Bottom left: The Decemberists

Jack Johnson, Alt-J, Sturgill Simpson, George Clinton, Kurt Vile, the Decemberists and dozens more bands take to the hills

M

ountain Jam returns to the hills of Hunter in mid-June with a deep lineup and the offhand assurance of a seasoned, veteran festival. It is a flexible festival, expansive, but deeply rooted in its own time-honored thing: songs, grooves, a loose emphasis on the organic-and-rootsy in its myriad guises.

Following the recent trend, the roster is current and hip, but not all that current and hip. Mountain Jam knows that it isn’t the Governor’s Ball and doesn’t try to be, though there is significant overlap.

The migration away from the Deadderived jam world has been complete for a number of years. Still, compared to the urban polyglot favored on Roosevelt

Island, the slopes of Hunter are a place where guitars still play. They don’t play them like they used to, though. One wonders if the total elapsed time of guitar solos this year will equal the duration of a single Warren Haynes jam in years past.

If there is one conspicuous absence in this year’s lineup, it is that of Rushmorelevel rock royalty, a senior presence. The measured and staged move away from jam and roots/blues has been a fact for many years, but in most recent lineups, there has always been the figure of a great unifier, a classic rock eminence or some eminences: We’ve seen Tom Petty in this role, and Robert Plant, Steve Miller and Steve Winwood, as well as some acts we still think of as current even though they have

his considerable draw seems to come from a kind of quarantined sector of the live music world – one shared by the Dave Mathews band and a handful of others (OAR?). The other big names in this year’s lineup are established concerns who, maybe, fare better in the critics’ sweepstakes than the popular. Sturgill Simpson is a new old country artist, Father John Misty a devilishly subservice Laurel Canyon persona who has morphed into something more real. Portugal the Man was one thing, and then they scored an outlandishly big hit and became another.

A lot of fans are finding their excitement in the lineup’s beefy indie-rock middle, where cult icons like Jenny Lewis and the Decemberists reside, or Philly citymates and former bandmates the War on Drugs and Kurt Vile and Violators, who play a kind of indie-rock well-suited for the hills of Hunter.

It is an exciting time for Mountain Jam as it expertly spans its past and its future.

It all goes down on the weekend of June 15 through 17. Ticketing and camping options are predictably complex, but the website is old-hand at making sense of it. See the full lineup and everything else you need to know at http://mountainjam. com/lineup.

What’s on deck Clearwater Festival at Croton Point next weekend, June 16-17 Jeff Tweedy

A

different kind of party, Clearwater’s Great Hudson River Revival marks its 40th anniversary in June. More than any other established music festival, the Clearwater Festival, as it’s commonly known, is directly associated with activism and the environmental movement via the imprimatur of its founder, Pete Seeger. It has thus always featured a gracefully integrated didactic and participatory component that newer-model festivals like Lollapalooza have attempted to emulate, sometimes in the form of community-minded afterthoughts like clean-needle-awareness programs. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

But Clearwater remains the most socially purposeful, family- and ecofriendly and perhaps the soberest of Bacchanalia. What certainly hasn’t escaped notice, however, is what a fine and inclusive music festival it has evolved into in the last decade, in which it has strayed in thoughtfully curated ways from its home base of folk and bluegrass. Embodying Ellington’s famous words – all music is folk music; “it’s music for folks!” – Clearwater has embraced world music fully, has come to peaceable terms with rock and now understands electronics as the people’s tools every bit as much as Woody’s textcovered guitar and Pete’s four-string banjo.

And somehow, it still remains solidly a folk and roots festival. Just looking along the top line of this year’s lineup, we can read a lot into the working aesthetics of Clearwater. Jeff Tweedy’s

Ani DiFranco

The Mavericks

Rhiannon Giddens

career has evolved into an unlikely pivot point of American music, a wheel with spokes in all directions. As a member of Uncle Tupelo, he helped usher in the new alt/ folk impulse of the ’90s, which in essence wrested the earthy eccentricity and political agency of folk and country back from a Nashville establishment that was aiming for mass-media c urrenc y. Our own roots/ rock hero Rhett Miller was a big player in that story as well, as was another of Clearwater’s headliners this year, Beth Orton, in her “folktronica” way. With Wilco, Tweedy has defined a broad territory of experimental, progressive roots music. His musical purpose – indeed his very existence – provides a fitting, core rationale of Clearwater’s cultivated inclusivity.

As famous for musical and business

autonomy as for contentious provocation and an aggressive and sophisticated guitar technique, folk/ rocker Ani D i Fr a n c o is revered and reviled and above all revolutionary.

She is a direct heir of Guthrie and Seeger in her walk of the talk and in her sturdy command of multiple folk and roots idioms, which she populates with news from today’s fronts, not yesteryear’s.

Pete really must have appreciated her, is my guess.

And it is time – more than 20 years now after she was the story – that we all do as well.

With the Carolina Chocolate Drops, Rhiannon Giddens has pretty much owned the moment in current/ traditional roots music. And, man, is she up to it or what? Outlaws of a different sort, Dave Alvin and Jimmie Dale Gilmore have formed a late career

More than any other established music festival, the Clearwater Festival is directly associated with activism and the environmental movement via the imprimatur of its founder, Pete Seeger.

Taste

duo of prolific and influential “insider pick” songwriters.

2018 features what is perhaps Clearwater’s oddest booking to date: the brilliant, brainy, surreal and enduring smart-pop duo They Might Be Giants, who are almost certainly the least organic act ever to mount the stage at Croton Point, even though they play real guitars and drums. And yet Clearwater has earned the right to such WTF moves, for with every one, they widen the reach of the “big tent” of American music: music for folks. What Pete Seeger made, or would have made, of “Ana Ng” – now a sobering 30 years old – is anyone’s guess. I think it is one of the most beautiful and touching songs of the 20th century.

Clearwater takes place on the weekend of June 16 and 17 at Croton Point Park. For the full lineup and the necessarily complex ticketing and camping and parking options, visit www.clearwaterfestival.org.

Cassandra Wilson at Senate Garage

A

s the Falcon has made apparent again and again for the last decade, the big names in jazz – really, the biggest – are eminently gettable bookings. As I once wrote in these pages, you can walk right up to the greatest living jazz legends – in a way for which you likely would be beat down in approaching Beyoncé or Paul Simon – and they’ll thank you for your kind Cassandra Wilson (photo by Mark Seliger) and perspicacious words.

Jazzstock, our region’s tireless collective of professional jazz players, promoters and preservers working now out of the hip Senate Garage in Uptown Kingston, has made big-name jazz bookings routine as well. But even by their high standards, this is a huge get: Multiple-Grammy-winner Cassandra Wilson will perform with the Lonnie Plaxico group, also featuring guitarist Marvin Sewell, at the Senate Garage at 4 North Front Street in Kingston on Thursday, June 14 at 8 p.m.

Front row seating costs $60, general seating an eminently reasonable $40 for a chance to be this close to this kind of talent.

Believe me, I’ve seen ticket prices in the local clubs and theaters get a lot more elastic than this for lesser names. For tickets and additional information, visit www.jazzstock.com.

LEONARD BERNSTEIN CENTENARY CONCERTS Lenny at 100: Feel the BERNstein on Saturday at Great Barrington’s Mahaiwe

W

ith “Lenny at 100: Feel the BERNstein,” the Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center in Great Barrington, Massachusetts celebrates the life and achievement of Leonard Bernstein, the greatest American conductor and one of its greatest composers as well. Situated in the heart of the Berkshires, where Bernstein summered with Aaron Copland, Lukas Foss and many more, this concert on Saturday, June 9 at 6 p.m. observes Bernstein’s 100th birthday with a musical portrait of a versatile career, with his vocal and piano music and that of composers he championed.

Featured will be perennial Stephen Sondheim favorites from his musicals Marry Me a Little (1980) and Anyone Can Whistle (1960, starring Angela Lansbury and Lee Remick); selections from Kurt Weill’s Threepenny Opera; Foss’ cowboy piece Capriccio; and Copland’s El Salón México, which was arranged for piano

by Leonard Bernstein himself.

Performers include Metropolitan Opera soprano Danielle Talamantes, baritone Kerry Wilkerson, pianists Michael Chertock and Mikael Darmanie and cellist Yehuda Hanani. Hanani, who was brought to Juilliard by Leonard Bernstein and Isaac Stern, recalls his initial meeting with Bernstein in Tel Aviv. "I was a kid," Hanani said. "He was like an apparition, descending from Mount Olympus... I played the Dvorak Concerto for him and took the second theme very slowly. He pantomimed sobbing, making me understand that I was overdoing it. And then he opened all the doors for me and brought me to this country... This concert is also a personal tribute."

Tickets cost $50 and$27 and are available by calling the Mahaiwe box office at (413) 528-0100. The Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center is located at 14 Castle Street in Great Barrington.

he award-winning chorus Ars Choralis gets in on Leonard Bernstein’s 100th birthday action with “Leonard Bernstein Remembered,” a performance at the Overlook Methodist Church in Woodstock on Saturday, June 9 at 7 p.m. and at the Woodstock Jewish Congregation on Sunday, June 10 at 4 p.m. Under the direction of artistic director Barbara Pickhardt, Ars Choralis will perform excerpts from a wide variety of the legendary composer’s secular music including musicals, operettas, song cycles, opera and his famous theater piece, Mass. In addition to singing from his songcycle I Hate Music, special guest, soprano Nicole Minielli, will perform songs rarely heard, such as the 1968 antiwar song “So Pretty” and “Dream with Me,” which was originally written for Bernstein’s musical, Peter Pan. Adult tickets for the concert cost $18 in advance and $22 at the door. Tickets for children aged 18 and under go for half-price. For tickets and additional information, visit www.arschoralis.org. The Overlook Methodist Church is located at 233 Tinker Street in Woodstock. The Woodstock Jewish Congregation is located at 1682 Glasco Turnpike.

Stormo and Matt Ross deliver Heddagabalus, a seven-song tour de force that extends and modifies the mode begun with Ear Op: abstract, heavy on the odd-time jams that evoke the prog of Can and Soft Machine more than that of Yes and Genesis, and with very little joking of the kind that used to define the outfit in its early years as New Paltz’s too-smart hard rock clowns (unless you find the line “I will

circumcise the foreskin of my heart” funny). As always, the compositions are witty and weird, pretty and alienating, the playing fierce and finessed.

As to the title Heddagabalus, I get the Ibsen reference, but I don’t even want to know what “gabalus” is; probably something to do with brain anatomy or a Roman general.

From the first moment I heard the indie/pop band Tennis, their kind of Motown-meetsCaptain-andTennille sweet spot pleased me greatly. In fact, many of the duo’s early m e l o d i e s sound like the lighter side of the Strokes, similarly evocative of a swanky-but-innocent cultural past that you seem to remember vividly but that never actually happened.

A square yard of soil can be home to more than a million nematodes, and we humans can be host to about 35 species.

GARDENER’S NOTEBOOK

Ninja nematodes Some species of these tiny insect-attack worms can ward off garden pests

T

he name “nematode” doesn’t conjure up a creature that you’d normally want to make friends with. Its other name, roundworm, seems even more repulsive and is, in fact, also a name applied more specifically to a nematode that infects humans and dogs.

Like it or not, nematodes are all around us, with more than 25,000 species described so far that inhabit diverse ecosystems, from thousands of feet deep in the Earth to mountaintops and from deserts to rainforests.

Many are visible only under a microscope; some are two inches long. A square yard of soil can be home to more than a million nematodes, and we humans can be host to about 35 species.

Do we want our plants to cozy up with them? A number of nematodes infect plants, resulting in stunted growth and, often, swellings on roots or stems.

Their common names – root knot

nematode, stubby root nematode, cyst nematode, lesion nematode – describe some of the symptoms. These plantpathogenic nematodes can do further ill by transmitting bacterial or viral diseases to plants.

I’m not particularly worried about nematodes in my garden. For one thing, they’re more prevalent in warmer climates. Also, good gardening practices, such as enriching the ground with compost, leafy mulches and other organic materials and crop rotation go a long way toward thwarting such problems.

If I did have a nematode problem, or suspected one, I could reach into a quiver of “organic” solutions. Marigolds can suppress nematodes – not just a plant here and there, though, but a solid planting of giant African marigolds. Mustard has a similar effect, whether grown, like the marigolds, as a cover crop, or applied as a seed meal, which also happens to be a slow-release nitrogen fertilizer.

Beneficial nematodes can be purchased through Cornell.

In the same way that just about no one with an eyepatch is a pirate, very few “nematodes” are bad guys. In the garden, so-called “predatory” nematodes are better than neutral; they are the “good guys,” preying on a wide range of garden pests.

Steinernema carpocapsae is an “ambusher forager” that lies in wait near the soil surface for unwary pests to wander past.

Chitosan, made from the shells of crustaceans and the active ingredient found in commercial products such as Serenade, reputedly bolsters plant defenses against nematodes and other pathogens. My casual experimenting with Serenade against apple diseases found no benefit.

In the same way that just about no one with an eyepatch is a pirate, very few “nematodes” are bad guys. In the garden, so-called “predatory” nematodes are better than neutral; they are the “good guys,” preying on a wide range of garden pests.

Some of the most common beneficial nematodes are Steinernema carpocapsae, S. feltiae and Heterorhabditisheliothidis bacteriophora. These three nematodes vary in their habits, although they all attack a wide variety of garden pests.

Steinernema carpocapsae is an “ambusher forager” that lies in wait near the soil surface for unwary pests to wander past.

Heterorhabditisheliothidis bacteriophora is a “cruise forager” that moves around through various depths of soil, ready to pounce upon unsuspecting sedentary pests. The habitat and hunting behavior of S. feltiae nematodes is intermediate to the other two.

Beneficial nematodes can be purchased.

To be effective, they must be shipped at the right growth stage and applied without their drying out. Even then, annual applications are frequently needed.

Some strains of the beneficial nematodes can survive and multiply in the soil year after year. I imagine that my garden soil has plenty of “good” nematodes; perhaps more would be better. Someday I may extract some of the “good-guy” nematodes from my soil, multiply them and then reapply them to my ground.

For now, I intend to get hold of a starter

supply of native perennial nematodes and multiply my holdings: a process that I think will have the added benefit of being fun and interesting. The three kinds of nematodes extracted from soils in central New York are available for purchase from https://bit.ly/2xHWNzp. With nematodes in hand, a nematode host is needed if I’m going to multiply them. Waxworms, sold for fishing bait, are a convenient host. The waxworms get incubated with the nematodes, which, after a couple of weeks, are rinsed free of the waxworms with water.

The aqueous suspension of nematodes is then ready for application. To prevent their drying out, they’re best applied in early morning or evening, along with plenty of water. If all goes as planned, they should establish and multiply to kill such pests as wireworms that bore into carrot and radish roots, plum curculio that attack apple, plum and peach fruits and any cutworms that attack just about everything.

NIGHT SKY

The vanilla asteroid You can see it without a telescope

G

uess: How many solar system members can the naked eye see?

With a good basic education, you’d rattle off eight: Sun, Moon and the five bright planets. Plus, all around your feet, there’s Earth. Throw in some meteors and the odd passing comet, and you’ve successfully matched the knowledge of the average caveman.

That’s what we knew from prehistoric times until the telescope era. But two additional bodies show themselves without any optical aid. You’d think that, in countless centuries of skygazing, somebody would have spotted them. Astoundingly, no one did.

By chance, both of these baffling oversights are visible this year. Uranus will be nakedeye this fall. The other is the brightest asteroid: Vesta. It’s at its best right now.

Asteroids have a curious history that began on the very first night of the 19th century, when the Sicilian priest Giuseppe Piazzi thought he’d found a new planet.

Soon named Ceres, its status was quickly clouded by the bewildering discovery of a second object (Pallas) in nearly the same orbit. Then came Juno and, in 1807, Vesta.

No further asteroids surfaced for another 38 years, correctly implying that the 100,000 visible to today’s instruments are mostly small chunks of rocky rubbish, much dimmer than the “Big Four.” They chiefly occupy the gap between Mars and Jupiter, where they forever intrigue science-fiction writers, who usually portray them as remnants of a planet that exploded thanks to high-tech errors by its inhabitants.

Most astronomers now think that this debris – ranging from Ceres’ 600-mile diameter

Vesta, the size of New York State, orbits safely in the main asteroid belt.

down to stones the size of meatballs – never formed a planet to begin with. Nor do we need sci-fi for asteroidal excitement: Some nervewracking mavericks brush past our world too closely for comfort. Just last year, seven zoomed by nearer to us than the Moon.

Vesta, the size of New York State, orbits safely in the main asteroid belt. It’s the only asteroid with an exotic vanilla-colored surface that reflects so much sunlight, it occasionally reaches naked-eye visibility when Earth passes by for a closer look, such as right now.

Okay, it’s still not easy. Vesta can just be glimpsed to the upper right of Saturn after 10 p.m. in the East. Saturn, in turn, hovers just above the “teapot” of Sagittarius.

Twenty years ago, researchers announced that Vesta is surrounded by tiny broken NASA fragments of itself, as if beset by a swarm of bees. Some of these stones hurtle Asteroids have a curious history that beto Earth as “shooting stars,” and such gan on the very first night of the 19th century, when the Sicilian priest Giuseppe Vesta meteorites have been periodically Piazzi thought he’d found a new planet. recovered. It’s the only asteroid to send us personal emissaries.

If you’re really going whole-hog with maps and binoculars, swing them upper right of Saturn to the first little star, then follow that line to the first really dim star. Bingo!

Under our current moonless country skies, put down the binoculars and Vesta remains plainly visible. You’ll suddenly be the first on your block to claim six planets and an asteroid with the naked eye.

In an earlier era, this would have brought you fame and fortune. Nowadays it’s more likely to brand you a fruitcake – especially if you start raving about a vanilla asteroid.

Castle screening Movie Nights on Bannerman Island commence this Saturday ong before munitions magnate Francis Bannerman acquired Pollepel Island as a place to stockpile explosives and other war materiel, the place had a spooky reputation. It’s said that early settlers seeking to hide from the local indigenous people sometimes sought refuge on the island because the Wappingers regarded it as an abode of evil spirits. Washington Irving made it the haunt of a tribe of goblins in one of his short stories, “The Storm-Ship.” Dutch captains allegedly left drunken sailors onshore there to sober up out of fear.

In more recent literature, including mystery, science fiction and fantasy novels, comic books and films, Bannerman’s Castle keeps popping up as well. It seems to be the vaguely described site of Brakebills College for Magical Pedagogy in Lev Grossman’s Magicians book trilogy (inspiration for the current SyFy TV series), and the DC Comics Nightwing series places villain Talia al Ghul in the castle, doing creepy human genetic experimentation.

So, it makes perfect sense that the folks at the not-for-profit Bannerman Castle

H.L.I.T.

Trust, in their endless quest to schedule programming that will lure new visitors to the island, hit on the idea of a summer screening series heavily tilted toward classic monster movies like The Mummy with Boris Karloff and The Wolfman and The Phantom of the Opera with Lon Chaney. The Island of Lost Souls is based on H. G. Wells’ novel The Island of Dr. Moreau, which is undoubtedly also the source for the Talia al Ghul storyline. Also included in the lineup are a Hitchcock thriller – North by Northwest, which includes a shot of the castle – and some other fare for fans of the alarming and uncanny.

The 2018 Movie Nights on Bannerman Island series, brought to you by the

Bannerman Castle Trust in association with Story Screen and Swank Motion Pictures, gets underway this Saturday, June 9 with a showing of Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure. It returns on Saturday, June 23 with Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (the 1971 Gene Wilder version), picking up again in late July and continuing into September.

The price of the excursion is $40 per show ($35 each if you buy a package of three movies). This includes a cruise to and from the island, departing from the Floating Dock at the Beacon Institute; your choice of a short self-guided tour of the island or Local Legend Lecture when you arrive; and the film screening.

Candy, popcorn and other refreshments

will be available for purchase. Sailing times vary, presumably depending on when the sky darkens enough to screen a movie outdoors at a particular point in the season; but the evening’s entertainment should fall more or less within the 7-to-10 p.m. window. Visit the Trust’s website at www.bannermancastle.org/2018-events. html for the full schedule, departure times and ticket ordering.

Prefer to explore the island in full daylight, by kayak? Storm King Adventure Tours provides excursions of three to four hours that include kayak equipment rental, a kayaking guide and an island tour with a Bannerman Castle Trust historian.

These tours depart on various dates throughout the summer from Cornwallon-Hudson. Call (845) 534-7800 or visit www.stormkingadventuretours.com.

or as long as humans have been making boats – that is to say, nearly as long as there have been humans – our storytelling has returned again and again to the powerful metaphor of shipwreck.

From Odysseus to Prospero, from Robinson Crusoe to Pi Patel, we keep trying to reinvent a plot so basic that one would think we’d have run out of variations many centuries ago. The protagonist either lives to tell the tale or doesn’t.

In most of these stories, of course, the big question is how he or she (usually he) will manage to survive exile and privation and existential despair (and sometimes hungry monsters or grumpy gods). The bulk of the narrative happens after the storm has passed; Shakespeare, for one, rarely bothered to introduce his tempesttoss’d characters until after they’d washed up on some unfamiliar shore. What interests us as readers or viewers tends to be more the change that the character undergoes as a result of the natural catastrophe than the catastrophe itself.

A whopping great storm at sea does make for extravagantly impressive cinematography, however – especially in these times of highly convincing CGI effects. There have been a fair few on the big screen in recent years, and watching a fragile human-made watercraft turning its prow into the maw of a monster wave supplies an adrenaline rush that never gets old. The trouble is that it doesn’t last; the filmmaker then has to figure out what to do with the second and third reel in order not to lose the viewer’s attention. It certainly helps if there are some other survivors about to generate some character conflict.

The latest to accept that challenge is

OCEAN’S 8

The vast majority of Adrift has only the two main actors onscreen, with Richard so seriously injured that he can only talk Tami – a less-experienced sailor – through the strenuous tasks of patching the hull, jury-rigging a makeshift mast and sail, pumping out the flooded cabin, setting course with only a watch and a sextant, salvaging food and so on. How to make this sort of practical hands-on drama visually engaging, besides gorgeous camerawork?

ORPHEUM

A STAR WARS SOLO: STORY

Icelandic director Baltasar Kormåkur, whose 2015 blockbuster Everest staked his claim as a contender for the crown of contemporary king of the humansversus-Nature disaster epic. As with Everest, Kormåkur’s new flick Adrift is inspired by a true-life adventure that went spectacularly awry, with a screenplay

by Aaron Kandell, Jordan Kandell and David Branson Smith based on Red Sky in Mourning: A True Story of Love, Loss and Survival at Sea by Tami Oldham Ashcraft and Susea McGearhart. It tells the story of how, in 1983, Tami Oldham (Shailene Woodley), a 23-year-old American, and her 34-year-old British fiancÊ, Richard Sharp (Sam Claflin), agreed to transport some acquaintances’ 44-foot yacht, the Hazana, 4,000 miles from Tahiti to San Diego and found themselves unable to outrun Hurricane Raymond. A 41-day ordeal follows, with the Hazana dismasted, its rudder fouled and electronics (including communications gear) completely disabled, thousands of miles from land.

timelines, of course, as has become trendy in moviemaking of late.

They’re not as radically organized as the timelines in last year’s Dunkirk, but maybe that’s a good thing: Viewers don’t have to struggle too much to know whether we’re in the “present� or the “past,� and the transitions don’t often get clunky (though editing isn’t the movie’s strongest technical suit).

The opening scene – of a bloody Tami regaining consciousness in a cabin nearly filled with water and floating debris, searching in a panic for Richard – is a visual stunner. The story flexes around that midpoint, doling out backstory for a while on how the couple met and bonded, gradually sharing the childhood traumas that had driven them to wander the seven seas, and periodically returning to their seemingly hopeless mid-Pacific situation.

The romantic angle of this story has some charm, and it’s not hard to comprehend what these two wounded free spirits see in each other. But it’s primarily Woodley’s visceral performance in the wake of the storm that gives Adrift its momentum. Tami lacks confidence in her sailing abilities; she feels seriously outclassed by Richard, who built his own boat. When disaster strikes, however, people quickly discover what they’re made of: The demands of the moment offer us little choice but to cope as best we may. Seeing Tami rise to occasion after occasion is an uplifting experience, even from a vicarious perspective.

Does Adrift add anything to the marineadventure subgenre that we’ve never seen or read about before? No; that would be asking too much. It’s solid entertainment nonetheless, and a fine introduction to Woodley’s talents for those who still think of her as a YA star. – Frances Marion Platt

ART Gardiner Open Studio Tour to feature 22 artists this weekend Artists and craftspeople in Gardiner are getting ready to fling wide their doors to visitors once again on June 9 and 10, when the Gardiner Open Studio Tour (GOST) returns for its sixth year running. You can tell that the annual self-guided mobile artfest

RON SCHAEFER

is imminent when dozens of brightly painted doors, unhinged, start popping up in the heart of the hamlet.

You don’t have to commit to designing a repurposed door to join the GOST group, but the colorful streetside display has certainly become a recognizable calling card of the tour hosts, whose number has swelled from nine in the first such event in October 2013 to 22 this spring.

For some home-based artists, used to working in solitude much of the time, the open-studio concept is a refreshing incentive to reconnect with the wider world through public appreciation of their work. “Making art, for me, is a very

private activity. Opening my studio for the Gardiner Open Studio Tour is the opposite: It gives me a chance to see how my work is seen by others, and to explain, as best I can, what it’s about, why I believe that art is life-enhancing. It’s fun to show off the magic of painting in melted beeswax,” says painter Marilyn Perry, who works in acrylics and encaustics. “The tour also makes me clean up my studio!”

To preview the work of GOST participants, read their bios and download the tour map, visit www. gardineropenstudiotour.com.

New local food market to set up at Hutton Brickyards in Kingston Kingston’s Hutton Brickyards is getting set for another summer season that will feature expanded facilities, riverside “glamping” and a food festi-

val showcasing regional cuisine.

Los Angeles-based MWest purchased the former Hutton Brickyard on Kingston’s Hudson River waterfront back in 2015. Last year, following a season that included the Smorgasburg food festival and a pair of concerts by music icon Bob Dylan, the Kingston Planning Board approved a five-year special use permit to allow the company to continue operating the venue.

Since last summer, the company has added a number of upgrades and expansions intended to create a more user-friendly site. According to MWest CEO Karl Slovin, the changes include a doubling of parking spaces to provide 1,000 spots, expanded restroom facilities, the addition of permanent bars, dressing rooms, office space and a prep kitchen.

Among the changes is the replacement of Smorgasburg — a popular Brooklyn-based food festival — with a new, produced-inhouse event called “Hutton Fare.”

The event will take place over the weekends of July 21-22, Aug. 18-19, Sept.

15-16 and Oct. 20-21. Hutton Brickyards is currently soliciting applications from potential vendors.

In addition to the food festival, the brickyard will host the return of “Field and Supply,” a high-end craft fair curated

by New York City designer Brad Ford on Columbus Day weekend. The brickyard, said Slovin, has also added high-end camping experiences — known as “glamping” to its offerings. MWest has partnered with Brooklyn-based Terra Glamping for the effort. Slovin said the glamping company would allow the brickyard to host overnight guests for weddings and other events. “It essentially allows us to create a seasonal hotel starting in the late spring and running into the fall,” said Slovin.

On June 11, 1939, president Franklin Delano Roosevelt hosted Prince Harry’s great-grandparents, King George VI and Queen “Mum” Elizabeth; no big deal. Here’s the fun part: Roosevelt brought them home(!) to his “cottage” (technically, his Mom’s place), the Springwood estate in Hyde Park! That had never been done before. Even better? He served them hotdogs! Whaaaat? The wieners were presented on silver platters, but they all ate from paper plates, just like the commoners who were also invited. I mean, can you even?

Take a bite out of history and enjoy the annual HVRRS Commemorative Royal Hot Dog Picnic this Saturday, June 9 at the Hyde Park Train Station Museum.

PORTRAIT OF ERICA BY SURPRISE PHOTOGRAPHY | HTTP://SURPRISEPHOTOGRAPHY.COM

ERICA'S CANCER JOURNEY

“If you don’t know, now you know” 25 things about Erica

I

so enjoy writing to you every week. Maybe some of these personal details will help fill in the gaps I don’t usually address. I know I’m always curious about this stuff about other people. This was fun. Feel free to send me tidbits about you to kidsalmanac@ulsterpublishing.com!

1. Rap music is a big Yes in my life. I read somewhere that rap stands for Rhythm And Poetry, which delights me to know.

2. The person I’d most like to have dinner with is 1700s intellectual Angelica Schuyler.

3. My favorite book is Bird Songs by Les Beletsky.

4. A favorite poem is “Lost” by David Wagoner.

5. I loathe raisins. Yes, even in [insert literally any word here].

Golden raisins are the worst.

6. Celery. Ew. 7. I have traveled around the world. My favorite place is wherever my husband is.

8. I could not stand my husband when we met (understatement): too kind, too funny, too smart, too helpful.

Blech. (Clearly, I came around.)

9. I thought the Harry Potter craze was stupid, so I read the first one specifically to have informed talking points about why it was so dumb. I was immediately hooked.

10. I used to believe energy healing, such as Reiki, was ridiculous, so I had a session (from a Catholic nun!) to prove how useless it was. I felt something. I had two more sessions with her to disprove my initial experience. Then I ended up studying with her.

11. I hate measuring things. I just don’t get where to put the end of the ruler or the tape: Do I stretch across the outside of the thing? Or the inside?

12. I fully resist parking where it feels disconnected from my destination. I will walk a half-mile to get into a store if it’s a clear relationship between the parking area and the place I’m going. Municipal parking makes me crazy; I just feel so detached.

13. Once it’s in my hands, I open things intuitively, efficiently.

Sometimes that’s the way the package was designed and it’s a smooth operation. More often, the box isn’t anticipating my two-second patience level. My husband routinely comes

Tuesday

9am-10am Free Weekly Community Meditation. On-going on Tuesdays 9-10am. All are welcome for silent sitting and walking meditation.

9am-10am Woodstock Senior Dance with Inyo Charbonneau. The emphasis is on fun while benefiting from strengthening and aerobic exercise and celebrating life. Sponsored by Wood-

to me with outstretched hands, holding this mangled mass of paperboard, uttering, “Really? Really?” My entire family threw a coup about my opening cases of soda, so Mike walked me through how to open them, and now they don’t roll out and explode on the floor when we open the refrigerator door.

14. My parenting philosophy is, “Today, I will: Connect with my Children, Bring Joy into their lives, Nurture & Encourage what they Love to Do, and Celebrate them for Being Exactly Who They Are!” as inspired by Anne Ohman, who changed the entire course of my family’s life.

15. I know how to do that arm-twist move from Zoom.

16. When I have a smooth customer service transaction, I never take it for granted and ask to speak to the supervisor to report it.

17. David Attenborough is so engaging, I watch anything he makes. My favorite is Life of Birds.

18. My son and daughter are smarter and funnier than I am. They are good, strong, honest and unique beings. They completely redefined the concept of Motherhood to me. No one has taught me more than they have.

19. My favorite wordplay: Like fish puns? Let minnow!

20. Ocean is only in the Northeast to me. Especially Maine.

Everything else is a body of water, but not true ocean.

21. Deadpool forever.

22. My favorite dishes are Grandma Mary’s Bisquick pancakes and turkey salad sandwiches; and Grandma Margaret’s scrambled eggs.

23. Cancer has been one of the biggest blessings of my entire life.

24. Doing public speaking delights me. Neil deGrasse Tyson is my favorite public speaker. I cannot stand when people say, “I don’t need this mic,” because it shows ignorance and disrespect of the hearing-impaired and people who are not as familiar with English and require clear diction to understand, and lack of concern about random noises around an individual listener, including candy wrappers, coughing, doors opening or closing et cetera et cetera. If you ever find yourself declining a microphone or dismissing a sound system altogether, whether planner or speaker, I beg you to reconsider. If there is one idea I can leave with you, it would probably be Use. The. Mic. 25. Linda Belcher is my spirit animal.

Head On and Heart Strong!

let him know he is valued and special. He’s almost 11-years old. “MEGHAN”; GORGEOUS LONG HAIR CALICO is a beautiful 1-year old cat girl. She was found in a feral colony (community cats) and clearly didn’t belong. She is now safe and secure at SAS. She’s a quiet girl who needs to know she will never be outside to fend for herself again.“HARRY”; CALM CAT BOY, WHITE W/GRAY TABBY MARKINGS, along w/two other 1-year old cats, was left in an apartment. The family moved and just left them. It’s hard to believe that anyone would do that. Harry is on the thin side.

Either he wasn’t given enough food or the other two cats ate most of the food. Make life right for Harry by adopting him and giving him good food, love and kindness for the rest of his life. These wonderful cats are ready to be adopted to loving homes. They have been spayed/neutered, are up to date with shots and are litter pan trained. Cinnamon, Meghan, Harry and other Cats and Dogs at the shelter need loving homes.
