SUMMARY:"Land\, Liberty\, and Loss" Reading and Discussion Program
DESCRIPTION:Guided by scholar Dr. Elana Krischer\, Shaker Heritage Society will host four book discussions this spring drawn from Humanities New York’s “Land\, Liberty\, and Loss” Reading and Discussion program. Through these texts we will explore the founding of New York and the United States through the lens of indigenous\, and in particular Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) history\, society\, politics\, and struggle for sovereignty. \nThe Shakers’ arrival in the New World in 1774 places them squarely at the center of the history and legacy of the American Revolution. While ardent pacifists and radically egalitarian\, the early Shakers can also be understood as the beneficiaries of the dispossession of indigenous nations: as 18th century immigrants to the New World\, tenant farmers\, and colonists eager to expand their settlements. This series will explore this broader socio-political context that facilitated the arrival and expansion of the Shaker experiment in the United States. \nWe will be meeting Wednesdays @ 6pm:  \nMarch 6th\, April 3rd\, May 1st\, and June 5th! \nAdmission is FREE\, but RSVP’s are required. Please RSVP at Eventbrite. \n  \nBooks: \nThe Divided Ground: Indians\, Settlers\, and the Northern Borderland of the American Revolution \nWhy You Can’t Teach United States History Without American Indians \nConspiracy of Interests: Iroquois Dispossession and the Rise of New York State \nOur Beloved Kin: A New History of King Philip’s War \nLink to more info: https://humanitiesny.org/our-work/programs/reading-discussion/land-liberty-loss-readings/

SUMMARY:Cyanotype Workshop with Julia Whitney Barnes
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will start with the basics of how to make a cyanotype print from mixing chemistry\, coating paper and/or fabric and developing the print using the sun!  \nWe will cover how to print using fresh and pressed plants\, printing with three-dimensional objects (string\, plastic bags\, glass jars\, jewelry\, etc.)\, printing with paper cutouts and how to create and print with photographic negatives. We may also play with experimental techniques including wet cyanotype. This medium is infinite in ways to combine techniques during the creation of the print and after it has been printed. The workshop does not require any previous experience in cyanotype. \nAbout the Instructor: Sometimes considered a printmaking technique\, sometimes a photographic technique\, artist/educator Julia Whitney Barnes approaches the medium as someone painting with light. She is interested in creating objects that feel both beautiful and mysterious. Each of her cyanotype paintings recall something familiar yet slightly outside of time. Given that sunlight starts the exposure process with cyanotype chemistry\, she carefully arranges elaborate compositions at night and utilizes long exposures under natural or UV light to create the final prints. She manipulates physical impressions of plants grown in her Hudson Valley garden and other nearby areas\, along with intricate negatives that are created as digital renderings or photographs printed in reverse onto transparencies. \n \nJulia Whitney Barnes is an artist living in the Hudson Valley who works in a variety of media from cyanotypes\, watercolor\, oil paintings\, ceramic sculptures\, murals\, and site-specific installations. She has exhibited widely in the United States and internationally. She was awarded fellowships from New York State Council on the Arts administered through Arts Mid-Hudson\, Lower Manhattan Cultural Council\, Abbey Memorial Fund for Mural Painting/National Academy of Fine Arts\, and the Gowanus Public Art Initiative\, among others. \nBorn in Newbury\, VT\, Julia Whitney Barnes spent two decades in Brooklyn\, before moving to Poughkeepsie\, NY in 2015. She received her BFA from Parsons School of Design and her MFA from Hunter College. Whitney Barnes has created site-specific installations at the Albany International Airport/Shaker Heritage Society\, Albany\, NY; Brookfield Place/Winter Garden\, New York\, NY; Arts Brookfield\, Brooklyn\, NY\, the Wilderstein Sculpture Biennial\, Rhinebeck\, NY; The Trolley Barn/Fall Kill Creative Works\, Poughkeepsie\, NY; GlenLily Grounds\, Newburgh\, NY; ArtsWestchester\, White Plains\, NY; Gowanus Public Arts Initiative\, Brooklyn\, NY; Space All Over/Fjellerup Bund i Bund & Grund\, Fjellerup\, Denmark; Lower Manhattan Cultural Council/Sirovitch Senior Center\, New York\, NY; Brooklyn School of Inquiry\, Brooklyn\, NY; New York City Department of Transportation\, New York\, NY; and Figment Sculpture Garden\, Governors Island\, NY and among other locations. \nWhat is Cyanotype?\nCyanotype is a camera-less photographic printing process invented in 1842 by scientist and astronomer\, Sir John Hirschel\, which produces a cyan-blue print when a chemistry-coated surface is exposed to sunlight. It is also known as a sunprint\, photogram or blueprint. The first artist (who was also a botanist) to use it was Anna Atkins. She is cited as the very first female photographer (though made without the use of a camera) and her family was friends with William Henry Fox Talbot (credited with inventing photography) and Atkins learned techniques from him and then made her own path. She published a book Photographs of British Algae in 1843. The medium has made a resurgence in the past twenty years with artists from all over utilizing cyanotype in various capacities. \nTickets are SHS Members $75\, General Public $100. \nAdmission to the Planting Utopia viewing and garden tour is included in your cyanotype admission fee! \nRegister online at Eventbrite. \n  \n  \nCategory: Workshops

DESCRIPTION:Join us for a tour and storytelling about a Shaker family that spanned the greater part of the 1800s at the Watervliet Shaker community. \nThe stories of the Wicks family members reflect a wide range of experiences of those who sought refuge with the Shakers.
