SUMMARY:A Story of Fascism presented by Val Coleman
DESCRIPTION:Fascism—“an authoritarian and nationalistic right-wing system of government” Is it the uber-drama of Nazi Germany or is it an ancient sickness that infected all of history? We’ll take a look and heed the advice of Hannah Arendt and other very smart people. We might even search for symptoms in modern America. Val Coleman\, the poet laureate of Sandisfield talked about the history of poetry last year and will try his best to talk about the history of fascism this year

SUMMARY:Evening of Song with Music by Cole Porter to Benefit the Sandisfield Arts Center

SUMMARY:Gallery of Artists Setsuko Winchester
DESCRIPTION:In the Gallery: SEPT 2 – 25\, Setsuko Winchester\n\nOpening Reception : 2nd Sep 2017 02:00 PM\nDate of Show : 2nd Sep 2017 – 25th Sep 2017 \n\n\nLecture by the artist at 3 PM \nPhotos from the Freedom from Fear/Yellow Bowl Project will be part of the Photography Exhibition for the 75th Anniversary of FDR’s signing of Executive Order 9066 at the FDR Library and Museum in Hyde Park\, NY (Feb. 19 – Dec. 31\, 2017). Setsuko Winchester\, born in New York City of Japanese immigrant parents\, worked as a journalist\, editor and producer at NPR on shows like Morning Edition and Talk of the Nation before moving to Western Massachusetts in 2006 to pursue a life-long interest in ceramics and the visual arts. She also helped start the local newspaper\, The Sandisfield Times and contributed as managing editor and staff photographer. In 2015 those interests of art and journalism converged in a work called the Freedom From Fear/Yellow Bowl Project as a means of telling a story through clay. The story is first and foremost a personal journey of discovery\, second\, a journey into American history and third\, a physical odyssey that included two epic trips covering over 16\,000 miles across the US to some of the most remote parts of the country where 120\,000 people of Japanese ancestry were once imprisoned during World War II.

As a performer he has shared the bill with some of the top country and folk artists\, including Vince Gill\, Bill Staines\, Bill Morrissey\, Deana Carter\, Bryan White\, Arlo Guthrie\, Pete Seeger\, Jonathan Edwards and Sawyer Brown. As a sought-after lead guitarist he has opened shows for George Jones\, Asleep at the Wheel\, Willie Nelson\, the Bellamy Brothers\, Waylon Jennings and many others. Bobby completed his fourth U.S. tour playing guitar on Guthrie’s 50th Anniversary of Alice’s Restaurant Tour and traveled with Guthrie to Carnegie Hall\, the New Orleans Jazz Fest and Garrison Keillor’s Prairie Home Companion among other landmark venues.

Bobby was selected as a finalist in the prestigious Kerrville (Texas) New Folk Songwriting Contest and has earned honorable mentions from other such organizations.

SUMMARY:Gallery of Artists Tina Castiblanco
DESCRIPTION:In the Gallery: July 1 – 29\, Tina Castiblanco\n\nOpening Reception : 1st Jul 2017 02:00 PM\nDate of Show : 1st Jul 2017 – 29th Jul 2017 \n\n\nARTIST’S STATEMENT \n“My experiences visiting and living in different countries have contributed to how my observations and memory of the local landscapes\, architecture and cultural encounters have entered into my artwork. I feel a constant\, yet non-conflicting dichotomy within myself\, and my art of the universal and the local. In this dichotomy I see the cultural\, iconographic\, geographic commonalities in the world; while still understanding the intrinsic uniqueness that exists within a place that enables a distinct ethnic and aesthetic experience.

SUMMARY:Over There—the Great War to End All Wars A Hundred Years Ago 1917-1918
DESCRIPTION:Bill Cohn\, Trinity College Visiting Professor of History and American Studies\, continues his analysis of the impact of the “war to end all wars” through the letters of his father from the battlefield\, and his mother’s journals on the home front. Bill’s father to be\, a buck private in the 308th Ohio Combat Engineers in World War I\, participated in the three major U.S. offensives in 1918 as a loyal American patriot who was committed to the successful outcome of the war and the cause for which he was fighting. He recorded all of his movements during his time in France and Germany in his diary and his hopes about the war’s outcome and what he went through in his many letters to his sweetheart\, Bill’s mother to be at home in Ohio. Excerpts from those many letters will convey to you something of the nature of that war as his father reported it. Bill’s mother’s anxious and worried thoughts about her sweetheart and the war over there are recorded daily in her own diary about the war over here.

SUMMARY:UNDER MILK WOOD By Dylan Thomas\, performed by the Sandisfield Players
DESCRIPTION:Three years ago the Players performed Dylan Thomas’ great 20th century play “Under Milk Wood” and we feel it’s time once again to venture into the small Welsh fishing village of Llareggub and join its cast of eccentric inhabitants for an evening of humor—often quite surreal— and astonishing poetry. The play begins at night and our narrators guide us through the dream worlds of village inhabitants. Then on through the waking spring day of their often extraordinary antics until dusk\, and night once more descends. It is a wonderful play of dazzling poetic language\, love for his 60 or so characters and full of wit and fun. \nUnder Milk Wood also performed by the Sandisfield Players on May 20 at 7:00 PM at the Unicorn Theater in Stockbridge\, and on May 21 at 4:00 PM at the Norfolk Library. For information about these performances\, please contact these venues directly.

SUMMARY:Gallery of Artists Sybil Perry
DESCRIPTION:In the Gallery: June 3 – 30\, Sybil Perry\n\nOpening Reception : 3rd Jun 2017 02:00 PM\nDate of Show : 3rd Jun 2017 – 30th Jun 2017 \n\n\nARTIST’S STATEMENT \n“I am inspired by landscapes that make me catch my breath. My paintings are not just a product of what I see. They are what I see transformed by my imagination and memories. They may at times have a story hidden in them. Sometimes I recognize the story as I am working on the piece. It is the beauty and sacredness of the earth captured on an emotional level. Water\, mist and mountains continually intrigue me—the mountains of the Berkshires\, the Hudson Valley\, Lake George and Kyoto.” “Color is what drives me and delights me. My process is meditative. Experimenting with layers of many colors enables me to explore\, to play\, and to experience wonder. These pastel paintings\, inspired by images gathered out-of-doors\, are completed in my studio. It most pleases me to create intuitively something I had not quite expected. I find the process to be a spiritual journey\, a mystery. At the heart of it all is discovery.”

SUMMARY:“Crazy World” Linda Mironti in a Cabaret Performance
DESCRIPTION:We live in a crazy world and in an election year\, things seem crazier than ever\, politics for sure\, and sometimes even love and relationships.  Since we can’t leave this crazy world\, let Linda entertain you with stories and song. “A middle-age belter with a sassy smile and one of those penetrating and lyric voices that reach out and snuggle an audience\, the lady owned us with twelve songs bumped with the story of her life.” Val Coleman\, Sandisfield Times \nLinda’s first voice teacher was her Grandmother Angelina\, who taught her Italian folk songs while showing her how to make homemade gnocchi and pasta. Ironically\, for the 7 years she performed in Italy she sang mostly blues\, jazz\, rhythm and blues\, and original pop material; she wrote lyrics for herself and for many other artists. \nIt wasn’t until her return to New York City in the mid 90’s that she was able to include her favorite Italian songs in her performances.   Linda has been organizing creative workshops in the arts in Italy for the past 20 years\, and singing anywhere she happens to be\, including here in her new home in Sandisfield. \nTickets for events at the Sandisfield Arts Center are available online or may be purchased at the door on the night of the performance on a first come-first served basis.
