Mario Medici Presents: The Village – A History of Greenwich Village
Join us on Tuesday at 6:00 for Mario Medici Presents- The Village – A History of Greenwich Village! This will be our first in-person program with Mario!
There is more to Greenwich Village than you might think. Greenwich Village is known as the center of the counter-culture movement of the 1960s. That bohemian feel has been transformed as its now an expensive and trendy neighborhood to live but it still retains some of its historical roots. Encompassing the West Village neighborhood, Washington Square Park, and the area around New York University, with a 100-block historic district established in 1969, New York City’s Greenwich Village is perhaps best known for its historic architecture, a variety of intimate cafés and restaurants, and a nice place to visit. Visiting The Village is like taking a vacation to a super cool place without actually leaving the city. It is undeniably an area like no other place in the city and the country!
August Art Show- Kathy Baruffi: The Art of Recycling
Stop by to see our gorgeous August Art Show- Kathy Baruffi: The Art of Recycling!
‘Art supplies’ can be discovered all around us: in nature, previously created pieces of art and other used things that are ready to be ‘re-purposed’. This show is a celebration of adaptive re-use within a family: having fun with materials that are already on hand. For example, I saved some cardboard coffee cup sleeves and painted them with an assortment of leftover paints to add touches of color here and there to work by our family (some of it salvaged from larger works) as well as discarded art (i.e. the dog portraits) available to anyone on the lookout in the circular economy.
