“Windham Arts Alliance” and “Artfully Yours” Join Together to Support the Northeast Parent and Child Society
The
Windham Arts Alliance recently teamed up with “Artfully Yours” store
owner, Theresa Corrigan, for a very important cause; together, they
presented to Northeast Parent and Child Society representatives Tara
Klein (Supervisor) and Brenda Purell-Stott (Green County Recruiter) a
check and gift certificate to buy art materials for several talented
and expressive young people in their unique care.
The Northeast
Parent and Child Society is more than just a foster care agency. Its
focus is to provide therapeutic foster care in an environment where
children develop to their potential; where they are nurtured and get
what they need to succeed and grow into responsible adults, who are
able to make positive contributions to family and society.
“We
certainly appreciate the generosity of the Windham Arts Alliance and
Artfully Yours for making this possible,” said Tara Klein.
“In
keeping with Northeast’s mission, it was our intention to encourage
these youngsters by recognizing them simply as ‘fellow artists’ and
providing them with the means to create,” said a WAA member. “We hope
that, one day, their work and ours will be hanging side by side.”
There is still a critical shortage of foster homes. If you would like more information, please call (518) 671-6755.

AT WINDHAM BRANCH
OPENING RECEPTION
Friday, July 9,
2010
6:15 to 8:00 PM
The exhibit will be available for public viewing through Friday,
September 3rd.
Robert Cepale, a Historic
Americana Artist, attended Pratt Institute and studied Rembrandt technique at
the Huntington Art League. Mr. Cepale’s work caught the attention of the
U.S. Military Academy at West Point, where he exhibited 48 paintings and has a
Civil War – themed painting on permanent display. He received the
Commandants of Cadets Award for Excellence. His art has appeared at the
Huguenot Museum in New Paltz and images of his work are in the permanent
collection of the American Folk Art Museum Library.
Anne Martin
Jakubowski, a Rockaway Beach native, began her love of photography at an early
age. She was inspired by the local beauty while spending weekends in the
mountains with her family. Photography was a way for her to capture the
moment and keep the memory alive. Mrs. Jakubowski moved to the mountains
in 1991 where she met and married her husband and has since settled in the
beautiful hamlet of Maplecrest.

A group of four Catskill Region artists who generally paint from
Artists' Rock to Platte Clove to Olana to Kaaterskill Falls travelled in the
spring of 2010 to paint on location in the beautiful hilltown of Barga, a
medieval walled city about 20 miles north of Lucca, Italy. They brought back
with them a range of sketches in pencil, oil and pastel. These sketches then
became the foundation for finished works of art, which will be exhibited at the
Kaaterskill Gallery starting January 15, 2011 and continuing through March 15.
The four exhibitors include some of the Catskill Region's most beloved
landscape painters: Mara Lehmann from Haines Falls, Michelle Moran from Woodstock,
Carol Slutzky-Tenerowicz from Elka Park and Marianne Tully from Stone Ridge.

The Kaaterskill Fine Arts Gallery Director, Laureen Priputen, expressed enthusiasm for the growing popularity of this annual show. "These young artists are our future," Laureen said.

| Jake, Sydney, Dehlia, Ben and Taylor Set Up a Lemonade Stand to Help Support Windham Arts Alliance During Art Fest |
AUTUMN II [9/12] by David Peskin
The green hills will soon brown
Summer's bounty giving way to rusting dormancy.
But, first, a flamboyant burst of exquisite ecstasy .
The dying season brings a celebration to show,
That Nature will not go quietly,
Nor be forgotten through hushed extinction.
First a reddening of sumacs
A single leaf, color flamed, then a-riot.
Oaks and maples,
Quickening with a panoply of orange and yellow brightness
Dazzle the eye in glorious array.
When the color pales, Nature's cleaners send leaves fluting earthward,
Cascading, twisting,
Trying to sustain flight
Before returning home.
At last, quiet reigns.
All have funneled into protected coves.
Trees, corners, overhanging bush
Clutch them to their wombs
Then, ochred sienna rules,
The rust richness dulls,
And all, gathered into earth's welcoming bosom.

OLDE CATSKILLS
original poem by Robert Cepale
Oh those days gone by when people worked hard and long,
They lived their lives more right than wrong.
Life in the Catskills surrounded by the majestic mountain peaks Kaaterskill Falls, rivers, lakes and creeks is a joy to behold as horse and buggy roamed the countryside.
The laughter of a family and kids enjoying a relaxing hayride.
The sounds of the country was like a symphony of its own.
The moos of the cows, the oinks and chirps would set the tone.
The sound of the anvil from the village blacksmith shop.
Birds in the trees singing their songs way up on top.
A Ferry boat cruising along the Hudson River and honking it's foghorn.
An unwelcome rooster's awakening call so early in the morn.
Hush a minute. Listen. Can you hear the train whistle from afar?
And then it is suddenly upon you, roaring by car by car.
The seasons in the country responding to nature's call.
The glistening yellow-orange, red and bronze leaves of Fall.
The young buds on the trees announcing the start of Spring.
Winter sleigh rides. Hear the jingle bells ring.
Hot summers sitting on the front porch hoping for a breeze.
Sharing cold lemonade with neighbors that mom would fresh squeeze.
This was the country for sunrises, sunsets, and heavy windy rain.
Not easy for wagons to make it through the muddy terrain.
Towns and villages had identity and soul before strip malls took their toll.
I would like to pull myself away from the conveniences of today,
if it's an adventure I could bear and journey back in time wandering through the old Catskills of yesteryear.

Prepare for RIP VAN WINKLE Sightings
Once again Rip Van Winkle will be appearing at various locations throughout the MountainTop as part of the 2012 Rip Lives! Outdoor Art Exhibit. Over 50 creatively painted Rip statues will be on display in Haines Falls, Tannersville, Hunter, Windham, Ashland and Prattsville in early June.
As part of this year’s event a Cat statue from the Cat n Around event in Catskill will appear on the mountaintop and a Rip statue will be placed in Catskill. “We felt joining the two events in this way would be beneficial to us all ” stated Steve Friedman, Chairperson of the Rip Lives! 2012 Committee. We love having one of the infamous Cat’s on the mountaintop”. Another special feature of the 2012 Exhibit will be the appearance of the “Survivor of Hurricane Irene” Rip statues being placed in various locations. A number of Rip’s were salvaged from the devastating floods of August 2011, were given a slight make-over and will also be available at this years’ auction event taking place on October 6, 2012 at the beautiful Washington Irving Lodge.
A special thanks goes to our dedicated, wonderful sponsors, and our talented artists who make it all possible, as well as the volunteer committee that works tirelessly to bring it all together. Last year, people came from near and far to enjoy the artistry of Rip Van Winkle and bask in the wonderful stories this Mountaintop holds. Many local businesses were discovered and patronized and our local artists were given the opportunity to shine.
So keep your eyes and ears open as the Rip Lives! Exhibit gets underway. For more information, please visit the website at www.riplives.org

Can the hard science of geology
blend with the fragile creativity of an artist?
Can something that happened 380
million years ago feed the imagination of someone living today?
Of course, the answer is yes and
from September 3 through November, residents and visitors to the Northern
Catskills may see for themselves the artistic progeny that results from a
unique marriage of art and science, this one using the Schoharie County town
of Gilboa, NY as its backdrop.

Paintings depicting the resiliency of our
landscapes,
despite the ravages perpetrated by man. In the Hudson River
School days, unrelenting industry denuded the mountains and
blew up the ledges. Trains rattled through the cloves and the streams
were polluted by various money-making endeavors. Nature
seems to have come a long way since then,
despite man's ongoing efforts to change her. Even the machinations of the ski industry can be
beautiful.
