SUMMARY:Gallery Opening\, Reception and Show: Peter Hason Photography - Free
DESCRIPTION:Support our artists! Follow Peter on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/phasonation/ \nThe outdoor opening and reception is from 4 to 6 PM  on June 5 (rain date June 6).  The exhibit will be on view weekends or by request to gallery@sandisfieldartscenter.org through July 4. \nPhotography by Peter Hason \nArtist’s Statement: “My photographs are typically taken from low angles so the perspective is that of looking up\, which lends an air of reverence and veneration to the subject matter. As Oscar Wilde said\, ‘We are all in the gutter\, but some of us are looking at the stars.’ My work in this exhibit focuses on the highly organized and intricate parallel and juxtaposing lines that emerge in the cityscape when the chaotic rhythm of city life is momentarily muted.” \nAs a native New Yorker who spent his youth plugged into the street culture of the ’80s and ’90s\, Peter Hason’s photography reflects his life-long personal relationship with the landscape\, architecture\, and people of the city as he captures the quiet but breathtaking beauty in the ordinary and everyday. \nThis show\, delayed from 2020\, is dedicated to the memory of longtime Sandisfield Arts Center volunteer and Gallery committee member Jane Hason. The opening reception will be outdoors and the Gallery show will be open to small groups for safe social distancing. \n

SUMMARY:Outdoor Sculpture Show - Closing Saturday July 31
DESCRIPTION:Update: Last day to see the show\, Saturday July 31! \nOpening was Sunday JULY 4\, 4 to 6 pm\, on account of rain and chilliness. \nOn July 4\, how would you like to– \n\nGather safely with friends including many you have not seen since early 2020?\nView wonderful sculptures in a beautiful Sandisfield field?\nSupport the Arts Center while having fun?\n\nThe beautiful field belongs to Liana Toscanini\, former Arts Center president\, longtime Sandisfield resident\, and current Executive Director of the Nonprofit Center of the Berkshires. Toscanini suggested the exhibit as a safe way to fundraise for the Arts Center this summer. \nCome to 186 Sandisfield Road (Route 57)\, see the map below. \nThe sculpture show will be open on weekends during the month of July.  A COVID-safe opening reception will be held on Sunday July 4 from 4pm-6pm.  Families welcome! $20 suggested donation for adults. The Arts Center is the recipient of all proceeds from the show. \nA wide walking trail around the perimeter of the field contains semi-circular cut-outs for the sculptures. A golf cart is available for those unable to navigate walking. \nSandisfield is home to several sculpture artists\, many of whom will be featured in the exhibit. \nThe Sandisfield Arts Center is the recipient of all proceeds from an outdoor sculpture exhibit taking place in July in a 5-acre field on Route 57 in Sandisfield. “Field Day” artists hail from Massachusetts and Connecticut\, with many from Sandisfield and neighboring towns. The opening reception is now July 4th from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. “Field Day” will remain open on weekends throughout the month of July. Admission is “pay what you can” with a suggested donation of $20 per person for adults. \n“This is a safe\, outdoor event that uses the arts to bring people together again\, after 15 months of pandemic-related hibernation\,” said Toscanini. The Sandisfield Arts Center has suffered major event-related revenue loss\, like many arts organizations across Berkshire County. “It’s a nice\, mission-centric way to help\,” said Toscanini. \nExhibiting artists include Robert Adzema\, Nick Crofut-Brittingham\, Bill Cummings\, Erika Crofut\, Susan Crofut\, Sophie Eisner\, Jamie Goldenberg\, Nancy Johnson\, Jaye Moscariello\, Robert G. Osborne\, Bevan Ramsey\, Jon Riedeman\, Richard Rook\, Karl Saliter\, Robin Tost\, Natalie Tyler\, Peter Vacchina\, Gar Waterman\, Robert Wilk. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Gallery Show: Light Tells the Story - Free
DESCRIPTION:Saturday July 31 the artist will be at the Gallery from 2 to 4 PM. \nPaintings by Mel Feldman \nMel Feldman began painting with watercolors and then took up acrylics\, as he found acrylics are more forgiving\, and it is easier to correct the work. He prefers to paint people and uses vintage photographs for inspiration\, as these often tell a story. Most important to Mel is the light and the interplay with the placement of the figures. He is also inspired by Vermeer and his use of light. The impressionists — Monet\, Renoir\, Corot\, and Pissarro — have contributed to his vision and the paintings he creates. He lives in Otis. \nThe opening reception will be outdoors and the Gallery show will be open to small groups for safe social distancing. \nThe exhibit will be on view weekends or by request through August 22. \n \n

It will be a great event\, but it won’t be that long! \nMore about Roger: \nRoger Street Friedman was bitten by the music bug early\, learning to write songs(at the age of 12) and developing his studio engineering skills. His life took a left turn in his early 20’s and he left music for a career in his family’s retail display business for about 25 years. But a combination of events during the mid-’00s — the passing of his father and mother\, marriage and\, later\, the births of his two children — steered Friedman back to music\, leading to the acclaimed 2014 debut THE WAITING SKY and 2017’s SHOOT THE MOON. “Those life events really kind of opened the floodgates for me to start writing again\,” he notes. \nRoger has performed at the Clearwater Folk Festival\, Huntington Folk Festival and The Falcon Ridge Folk Festival (Grassy Hill Emerging Artist) as well as touring up and down the Northeast\, Mid-Atlantic and South.  Friedman performed at the 2019 NERFA conference in a coveted “formal” showcase\, and is currently planning his 4th studio album for 2022 and happy to be coming to Sandisfield to kick off getting back on the road and performing for a live audience again! \nSponsors \nFlora Parisky\, a donation in memory of Sean Carr 9/19/69 – 10/24/20 \nMatt McCuin/Matt McCuin Landscaping \nFloodgate Farm \nDomaney’s Liquors and Fine Wines \nNote that you will be able to pay with a credit card – click the PayPal button at Checkout\, you’ll come to a page where you can enter your credit card info.
