FLEISCHMANNS — Fleischmanns is planning the Second Annual Fleischmanns Fest, following the significant success of last year's event. We spoke to the Arts Inn's Heidi Stonier about the upcoming Sunday, Aug. 31 event from 10am to 6pm.
This year vendors will be added to the music and "great food" for the community and visitors. Stonier cited the excellent food from the community, along with the partnership between Catskills Air, Arts Inn Collective, and the Print House.
The group received a matching grant from Delaware County, as well as a number of sponsors, such as Upward Brewing, Sounds Good Music, 1053 Gallery, and Shamro Tires.
There will be a number of food vendors, including The Print House, Oda, Café Marguerite, Mountain Embers, Sylvia & Friends, Cousin Vinnie’s, Lemonade, Sacred Soil and The Shandaken Inn.
Music includes Marji Zintz- 10 am Shadowcrest porch 973 Main Street, callie mackenzie- 11am River Run porch 882 Main Street, Jaketown Road 12 pm La Cubana parking lot 966 Main Street, Gabe Parsons 2pm 1053 Gallery, Main Street, Joe Colwell 3pm The Print House 1070 Main Street, Lali & the Pops 4pm Arts Inn backyard 923 Main Street, and Simone Ayers & the Robert Hill Band 5pm The Print House 1070 Main Street.
Stonier cited the effort to make Fleischmanns into "the Arts Village," as a number of community artists have taken part in a series of artworks. This includes Arts Inn displaying art by David Sears, a scholar, teacher, and artist. "He has literally a barn full of paintings," said Stonier.
Art Up’s Gary Mayer, an “artistic powerhouse” plans to have a live drawing class between 12:30 and 2pm at Arts in at 923 Main Street, including Margaretville’s Robin Williams as a live model. All artists are invited to participate and anyone is welcome to observe and learn.
The garage sale will take place from 10-4, especially along Main Street and Wagner Avenue with the main action happening with restaurants and vendors at the same time.
