GILBOA — Gilboa Museum to be open several more days this fall for general viewing and special programs.
In addition to our regular displays, the Small Works Art Show fills the community room with strikingly beautiful pieces in many different media. Come see paintings, prints, multimedia, encaustics, collages, fabric pieces and figurines: all made by 17 highly talented local artists. Most are for sale, and priced attractively for the holidays. Original art makes a thoughtful, personal, unique gift, and the local connection makes these extra special.
Other events will be happening as well.
On November 22 at 1:00pm, the authors of "The Catskill Fossil Forest" will be interviewed by Kristen Wyckoff. They will talk about their discoveries that make our region world-famous, take questions and sign copies of their spectacular book. Refreshments will be served.
On December 6 from 10am to 4pm, Amy Silberkleit will run a printmaking workshop. She will use her press to print monotypes created by attendees using collage, drawing and drypoint techniques. All materials are supplied. The workshop is free, but pre-registration is required. call (914)471-2127.
On December 7 at 2pm, we will show a movie, "Original Cast Album: Company". This is a 1970 documentary about the recording session that produced one of the best-loved musical scores ever made. It shows the amazing talent, as well as the effort and endurance it took to get the definitive performance on tape. Popcorn and refreshments!
On December 13 at 2pm, we will hold our annual Bottle and Shopping Bag Auctions and raffle. Our auctioneer, Alicia Terry, knows how to work the crowd and keep everybody smiling as she auctions off the mysterious packages up for grabs.
The museum will be open to the public from noon-4pm on November 22, December 6, 7, and 13. All events are free!
