CATEGORIES:arts
DESCRIPTION:Instant Happy: Lost and Found Polaroids \nOpening reception Fr
 iday\, Sept. 11. \nIn the past two decades\, Curtis Cates has collected mo
 re than 1\,500 Polaroids. And in a project that began in 2024\, Cates\, hi
 s wife and collaborator\, Cindy Connolly\, along with friend and writer Da
 vid Bjerklie\, selected images for this show. It was a process that took m
 ore than a year\; the sheer variety of the images made selection a dauntin
 g\, but fascinating challenge. \nHow do photographs shape our perceptions 
 of the passage of time? How much of a photo’s value is intent\, how much
  is context\, how much is interpretation? As Cates\, Connolly\, and Bjerkl
 ie began to compare and evaluate which images were “best” or “most i
 nteresting\,” they found there were no simple answers. Photos that one w
 eek were immediately put into the “absolutely must include” category w
 ould often be reconsidered and moved into the “probably not” category.
  And vice versa. It seemed like a crazily arbitrary project at times.  Bu
 t that probably should not have been a surprise\, given the nature of the 
 images. In the Q&A that accompanies this exhibition\, Cates and Connolly m
 ake this point perfectly\; above all\, their aim is to stimulate conversat
 ion and new perspectives on what can be seen in the most ordinary of snaps
 hots. \n  \nCurtis Wade Cates\, a native of Lubbock\, Texas\, is a musici
 an\, street photographer\, collector of street art\, amateur archivist and
  former network news crew member. He has been a documentary producer (Peac
 e Through Understanding: The 1964/65 New York World’s Fair\, Tex and Gen
 e)\; public access TV producer and star (Hillbilly Peckers’ Barbecue TV 
 Hour)\; and video editor (Ramones: Around the World\, Kelly Lamb’s Geish
 a Girl and Origami). He co-created video support for such exhibits as Marg
 ot Fonteyn in America: A Celebration at the New York Public Library for th
 e Performing Arts at Lincoln Center\, Ukulele Fever and Pedal to the Metal
 : A History of Children’s Pedal Cars\, Stamford Art Museum\, and Milt Hi
 nton: A Memorial Exhibition of His Jazz Photographs 1938-86\, Flushing Tow
 n Hall). Curtis also co-curated a show on art and industry at the 1964/65 
 World’s Fair for the Queens Museum of Art and restored and archived epis
 odes of Marc Miller and Paul Tshinkel’s ART/new york interviews with suc
 h artists as Jean-Michel Basquiat\, Robert Mapplethorpe and Keith Haring. 
 In 2012\, Curtis co-curated The Coloring Book at Manhattan’s ABC No Rio.
  More than 100 artists interpreted pages of a Masterpieces coloring book w
 hich Curtis had found on a radiator in the Lower East Side building where 
 he lived. \nCindy Connolly Cates\, native of Omaha\, has worked as a news
 paper reporter\, as well as for Time Inc. publications in New York City a
 nd People Inc. in Des Moines. She is currently focusing primarily on book 
 editing projects. In 2023\, Cates and Connolly curated the Rodeo Coloring 
 Book exhibit at the Old Feed Store gallery in Bassett\, Nebraska\, an homa
 ge to the late rodeo rider Casey Jochem. \nDavid Bjerklie grew up in North
  Dakota and since 1984 has been a reporter\, writer and editor for TIME Ma
 gazine\, TIME For Kids\, and TIME Special Editions. He has written on a br
 oad range of science\, environment and medicine topics\, with special emph
 asis in recent years on mental health\, language\, animal intelligence\, t
 he nature of hope\, the character of facts\, and the psychology of being w
 rong. He has been a Knight Science Journalism Fellow at M.I.T.\, a Rosalyn
 n Carter Mental Health Journalism Fellow\, two-time grant recipient at the
  Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings in Germany\, and a National Science Founda
 tion Media Fellow at McMurdo and South Pole Stations in Antarctica. He liv
 es in Montclair\, New Jersey.

DESCRIPTION:Is there an issue that keeps popping up and draining your joy?
  Do you have a curiosity to  take a peek at it? This class is all about g
 aining clarity. You will find the next right action for you\, designed by 
 you. \nUsing light yoga\, visualization\, and aromatherapy we will set the
  stage for clearing our mind and bringing what we wish to work on to the f
 orefront. We will watercolor our soul’s query and then set it to the sid
 e. We will then venture out on a wandering photo walk and photograph captu
 res our fancy. Any phone camera is all you need. \nUpon return\, we will u
 se writing techniques to harvest an answer to our query. After that joyful
  insight\, we will write/draw/notate onto our watercolor painting\, so we 
 capture our clarity creatively. \nYou will leave class with a new perspect
 ive on your energy block. You will know how to pull your joy and freedom b
 ack to yourself. And you will have a watercolor painting to document your 
 discovery. \nIncluded in class will be a handmade journal to collect your 
 thoughts on paper. All you need is your phone camera and your favorite pen
  – all other supplies provided. \nSaturday September 26th\n1-3:30 PM \nL

DESCRIPTION:Leaded stained glass is one of the oldest forms of window maki
 ng\, going back over a thousand years. It predates the copper foil method 
 by many centuries and is the technique used in the great cathedral windows
  of Europe. It’s known for its strength and bold\, architectural look. I
 n this class we’re using that same historic process adapted for smaller\
 , modern designs. \nIn this workshop Valerie will introduce you to that sa
 me historic process. You will create a geometric leaded panel\, 6-1/4″x 
 8-1/4″\, framed in zinc metal with a pewter chain for hanging. I will ha
 ve lots of strips of colored glass to choose from to create your own uniqu
 e design! You will learn how to cut and grind glass\, cut lead\, solder an
 d assemble. No experience required – just bring your creativity and leav
 e with a stunning\, handcrafted piece. All materials provided. \nSunday\,
