SUMMARY:Celebration: Republication of The Catskills by Alf Evers
DESCRIPTION:Celebration: Republication of\nThe Catskills\nby Alf Evers\nAn event to celebrate the republication of The Catskills: From Wilderness to Woodstock by Alf Evers will take place at the Historical Society of Woodstock on Friday\, August 16\, from 7 to 9 pm. Purple Mountain Press of Bovina recently brought out its edition of this definitive regional history. \nFor countless readers over the course of more than fifty years\, Alf’s stand-alone book has served as the gateway to learning about and treasuring the Catskills\, in all the region’s intricate and colorful history. Originally published by Doubleday in 1972 and then in an updated edition by The Overlook Press in 1982\, the book had become unavailable. \nPoet and composer Ed Sanders\, author of Alf Evers: An American Genius\, and Fred Steuding will share their recollections of working closely with Alf towards the latter part of his life\, when both friends assisted with the research and completion of his Kingston: City on the Hudson. \nBorn in 1905\, Evers grew up on a farm in Ulster County within sight of the Catskills. The genesis for The Catskills was when Alf’s frequent articles about local subjects caught the notice of an editor at Doubleday\, who approached him to write a full history. It took him eight years to research and write and was published to great success. Thrilling generations of readers since\, The Catskills presents the lore\, legends\, art and commerce\, flora\, fauna\, and natural and manmade wonders that have made the Catskills one of America’s most historically rich and romantic regions. Not least among its delights is the voice of Alf himself as a storyteller\, entertaining and wry. \n\nPublishing books since the 1980s\, Purple Mountain Press specializes in titles about the Catskills\, Adirondacks and other regions of New York State. In 2020\, founder Wray Rominger of Fleischmanns\, who ran the press with his late wife Loni for many years\, was presented with the Alf Evers Award for Excellence by the Catskill Center for Conservation and Development. The publishing house continues under the stewardship of James and Maureen Krueger. Books can be purchased at www.nysbooks.com.

SUMMARY:The Historic Woodstock Art Colony – Arthur A. Anderson Booksigning and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:The Historical Society of Woodstock presents Arthur A. Anderson in conversation with art historian Bruce Weber discussing his collection of art from the historic Woodstock art colony\, followed by a signing of the recently published book by SUNY Press\, The Historic Woodstock Art Colony: The Arthur A. Anderson Collection\, on Saturday\, July 20\, 2024 from 2 to 4 PM at 20 Comeau Drive in Woodstock\, N.Y. Admission is free. Mr. Anderson will sign copies of the book\, which is lavishly illustrated and includes essays by its eight authors. \nLong before the famous music festival in 1969\, Woodstock\, New York was home to what is considered America’s first intentionally created\, year-round arts colony—founded in 1902. Collecting the remarkable range of work produced there has been Arthur A. Anderson’s focus for three decades\, resulting in the largest comprehensive assemblage of its type. \nThe artists represented in this collection reflect the diversity of those who came to Woodstock\, including Birge Harrison\, Konrad Cramer\, George Bellows\, Eugene Speicher\, Peggy Bacon\, Rolph Scarlett\, and Yasuo Kuniyoshi\, among many others. \nAnderson recently donated his entire collection—some 1\,500 objects by almost 200 artists—to the New York State Museum\, and this book introduces to the public\, for the first time\, a sample of the highlights of this extraordinary collection\, which represents a body of work that together shaped art and culture in New York and forms a history of national and international significance.

SUMMARY:WOODSTOCK PERSONALITIES: 40 Years of Photographs by John Kleinhans
DESCRIPTION:Opening reception\nFriday June 7 from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. \nExhibit Open – Saturdays & Sundays\, June 8 through July 28\, 1–5 pm\nGallery Walk-throughs with John Kleinhans on:\nSunday June 23 at 2:00 p.m.(with art historian Bruce Weber)  \nSunday July 14 at 2:00 p.m.(with artist Paula Nelson). \nThe public is invited to these events at no cost. For more information: (845) 679-2256 or info@historicalsocietyofwoodstock.org. \nThe Historical Society of Woodstock presents our opening exhibition of the season\, Woodstock Personalities: 40 Years of Photographs by John Kleinhans\, on Saturday\, June 8\, 2024\, at 20 Comeau Drive in Woodstock\, N.Y.\, with an opening reception on Friday\, June 7 at 7 PM. The exhibition will run through July 28 and is open on Saturdays and Sundays from 1 pm to 5 pm. Admission is free. \nThis exhibition of 94 photographs\, taken over a span of forty years by John Kleinhans\, features pictures of local personalities. Seldom seen without a camera in hand\, Kleinhans considers these photographs to be what he refers to as “a visual diary” of casual meetings and unexpected encounters with local friends and associates. \nKleinhans\, a Pittsburgh native\, set up his first darkroom in 1965 in New York City. After a 12-year academic career specializing in visual perception\, he settled in Woodstock in 1979. He was drawn mainly to landscape photography and\, commercially\, he specialized in photographing artwork and architecture. During the 1980’s he was a photographer for the Woodstock Times and other publications. \nA casual meeting in 1983 with Robert Angeloch\, founder of the Woodstock School of Art\, led to a life-long involvement with the school where he was a student\, handyman\, and board member. He also served on the boards of the Woodstock Artists Association and the Center for Photography at Woodstock. From 1988 to 2007 he worked as a designer and product developer at Woodstock Percussion. With his wife\, artist Paula Nelson\, he founded Precipice Publications which released his books: An Image of Monhegan (1997) and Woodstock Landscapes (2000). \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				REVIEW\nWoodstock personalities highlighted in photography exhibit\nby Geddy Sveikauskas\nJohn Kleinhans has been photographing the creative people he has known in Woodstock – many of them painters and sculptors – for 40 years. Of the more than 80\,000 images he has produced over the four decades\, a carefully selected 94 are currently on exhibit at the Historical Society of Woodstock’s facility at 20 Comeau Drive on weekend afternoons from one to five p.m. \nThese are digital snapshots\, not carefully staged studio portraits\, “Records of unplanned encounters with friends\, co-workers and casual acquaintances\,” as Kleinhans puts it in the foreword of the exquisitely produced catalog entitled “Woodstock Personalities.” The expansive circle of Kleinhans’ friends and acquaintances know that he and his camera are virtually inseparable. His friends are used to him moving around or making a quick suggestion before snapping one or several shots. The result can be an extraordinary display of the social intimacy among old friends – creative Woodstock at its best.  \nFor the creative people of Woodstock\, life is a labor of love – and a bunch of other feelings as well. \nThe affable Kleinhans\, gifted with an ability to intuit the narratives that connect people\, has a doctorate in experimental psychology from Rutgers University\, where he taught as a professor for a dozen years. But as he wrote\, “Photography eventually triumphed over psychology.”  \nIn Woodstock\, Kleinhans also worked for several years at Garry and Diane Kvistaad’s Woodstock Percussion\, Woodstock art historian Bruce Weber has contributed informative single-paragraph texts of explanation that accompany each photograph\, \n“Woodstock Personalities\,” curated by Letitia Smith\, closes on July 28. The sumptuous 68-page catalog will remain.  \nHudson Valley One Review  June 27\, 2024

SUMMARY:Woodstock’s Farming Story
DESCRIPTION:Opening reception Saturday\, September 30\, 3–5 p.m.\nAdmission: Free\nThe Historical Society of Woodstock announces the opening of a new exhibition\, Woodstock’s Farming Story\, on Saturday September 30 2023 at 20 Comeau Drive Woodstock\, N.Y. with an opening reception on September 30 at 3 pm. The exhibition\, through images and artifacts\, looks at how farming has been part of Woodstock’s story from its earliest days to the present. The exhibition will run through November 12th and is open on Saturdays and Sundays from 1 pm to 5 pm. Admission is free. \nLike most of rural America during the 1800s\, Woodstockers relied on farming to provide for the needs of their families and to serve as sources of income. Even “town families” maintained large gardens and chickens as well as a milk cow in their backyards. Will Rose\, for example\, writes in his book The Vanishing Village about the wonderful smell of the fruit trees and berries throughout the village. The artists who arrived in the early 1900s also learned the value of Woodstock’s barns as both a subject for their paintings as well as a place to live. The exhibit also looks at present day farmers as they bring their own twist to Woodstock’s farming story. \nWould you want to hear the story about the farmer who kept bears as livestock? How about the woman who had a fried rattlesnake recipe and a special skillet just for it? \nThese and many other Woodstock family stories have been handed down through the generations. Please join with some members of Woodstock families as they recount these tales and many others that will make you laugh and amaze you. \nThis will be a panel discussion at the Historical Society of Woodstock on Saturday\, October 7th\, from 11 AM until 1 PM. Audience participation will be encouraged. This event is part of the Path Through History weekend. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				”In addition\, our new publication Catskill Love Song–Coloring Book will be available for purchase at the HSW gift shop during the exhibit. It is based on the recent song\, “Catskill Love Song by musician and author Steve Charney. Steve and illustrator and author David Goldin created this coloring book to support the mission of the HSW to preserve\, interpret and share the unique history of Woodstock. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlso open to visitors is the new permanent exhibit Remembering Woodstock and the newly renovated Tool Shed\, featuring examples of tools used in Woodstock’s past. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Historical Society of Woodstock was founded in 1929 by a group of artists\, writers\, academics\, and local citizens.

SUMMARY:Woodstock Meets the Sixties with historian Richard Heppner
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, September 16\, 3 p.m.\nAdmission: Free\nOn Saturday\, September 16 at 3:00 p.m.\, the Historical Society of Woodstock will present a talk by Woodstock Town Historian Richard Heppner titled Woodstock Meets the Sixties. Heppner\, who has written extensively on Woodstock history\, will discuss how\, at the time\, a decidedly conservative town “greeted” an influx of young people as Woodstock became a beacon for those seeking music\, magic\, and freedom. It wasn’t always pretty. \nFrom the early 1960s\, through a good part of the 1970s\, official Woodstock and many of its townspeople weren’t always pleased with the new arrivals as the town confronted differing lifestyles\, issues of drug use\, nude swimming\, trespassing\, and varying political and philosophical beliefs. Through his talk\, Heppner will highlight the impact and evolution of changing times in Woodstock as the name of a small town at the base of Overlook Mountain became linked to an entire generation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Historical Society of Woodstock is located at 20 Comeau Drive\, Woodstock.

SUMMARY:Anthony Robinson\, in conversation with Tad Wise Father of the Man
DESCRIPTION:Anthony Robinson\,\nin conversation with Tad Wise\nFather of the Man\,\nA Novel about growing up on the Maverick\nBook signing\, Free\n				\nThe sons of famous men are notoriously hobbled by their fathers’ reputations. This was not the case\, however\, here in Woodstock\, when one of The Maverick’s first writers\, the struggling poet Henry Morton Robinson\, emerged into literary stardom with a “book of the year novel” in 1950 entitled\, “The Cardinal.” The reason being his only son Anthony Robinson failed to be intimidated by his father’s brief if spectacular career. ( Robinson\, Sr\, died at 61 and is remembered today more for his classic collaboration with Joseph Campbell : “A Skeleton Key To Finnegan’s Wake.”) \nInstead a tenacious Anthony Robinson would himself write several admired novels and short stories\, while becoming a local favorite professor of English Literature and director of the Creative Writing department at SUNY New Paltz. Even so\, Tad Wise argues that the son of Henry Morton Robinson has– late in his own life—left us perhaps his most remarkable portrait by recalling his own boyhood “on the Maverick\,” while yes\, reproducing with uncanny accuracy and sympathy the vastly different experiences of a father and son\, locked in a struggle rife with anger\, resentments\, begrudging love\, and hard-won respect. \nIn Father of The Man\, the younger Robinson\, in fact\, emulates a completely different set of mid-century American writers and—while including his own classic friendship with Maverick founder Hervey White—makes an impressive contribution to the Coming of Age American novel. \nWise will interview Robinson on…

The exhibition will run through September 17\, and is open on Saturdays and Sundays from 1 pm to 5 pm. Admission is free. \n“I’m goin’ to town.” For generations Woodstockers from all over the township have said these words as they set off by foot\, horseback\, wagon\, bike\, or car…to the Woodstock Village…for supplies\, for work\, for entertainment\, to worship\, to watch a parade\, to protest\, to trick or treat\, to wait for Santa. Woodstock’s original Town Center was located at the intersection of what is now Route 212 and Mink Hollow Rd. in Lake Hill. By 1805 this hub of activity had relocated itself to its present site. At that time “town” was made up of a store\, a church\, several taverns\, and small farms. This exhibition will celebrate the Town Center\, so vibrant and well-loved. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Arriving at Rose’s Store on Tinker Street – circa\, 1900.

SUMMARY:The Tools they used— A History of Woodstock Through Tools
DESCRIPTION:  \n					Two talks illustrating the use of tools throughout the history of Woodstock.\nRichard Heppner\, the author of six local history books and the Town Historian\, will talk on life in early Woodstock from 12:30 to 1:15.\nHis presentation will cover farming\, blue stone quarrying\, ice harvesting\, and woodworking.\nAt 1:30\, Graham Blackburn\, a master woodworker\, and a featured presenter at the national level on woodworking\, will discuss woodworking tools and demonstrate their uses.\nUntil the beginning of the 20th century the Town of Woodstock was an agricultural rural community. The town was largely self-sufficient in that people grew or produced most of what they needed to live a good life. Surrounding the small-town center were many active farms that raised livestock and grew a variety of crops. Farming itself has never been a hugely profitable endeavor in the Catskills\, and Woodstock farmers were no exception. They frequently had to supplement their income with other activities such as making shake shingles or barrel staves from locally harvested timber. Ice harvesting from local ponds was a winter job\, as was hauling timber and quarried bluestone by sled over snow. \nThe Tool Shed exhibit highlights some of the stories of the people of Woodstock through the tools they used from the mid-1800s until the mid-1900s. They represent farm families\, tradespeople\, and merchants. The tools on display show a sample of the types of work in which these people engaged. \n				 \n

Their wildly danceable blues has led to Marc’s induction into the New York Chapter of the Blues Hall of Fame\, and his recent album\, Everybody Wants My Hat\, reached the top ten on the International Folk Radio Charts. As a teenager\, Marc fronted the Blades of Grass and toured with many of the biggest acts of the day including the Doors\, Van Morrison. A few years later\, he became the first indie singer-songwriter to garner a pick hit in Billboard Magazine. In the words of Don Wilcock\, editor of the Blues Revue\, “Marc’s show is beyond marvelous.
