Art Omi presents an immersive installation by artist Portia Munson in the Newmark Gallery, on view from June 25 through September 25. For over two decades, Munson has teased out cultural codes latent in the mass-produced items that surround us. Her monochromatic installations underscore the pleasures of looking at a dizzying array of items that are at once seductive and utterly disposable. Munson’s work offers an incisive study of the desires and terrors lurking just under the surface of commodities.
Bindlestiff's Summer of Joy 2022 includes five different programs for ages 6 through young adults including circus arts intensives for youth and participation in Sankofa Hudson Black Arts and Cultural Festival parade; Collaboration with Loki Designz for costume design and fabrication; Hudson Juggling Club at Waterfront Wednesdays; and Restorative Justice facilitation training with Hudson Youth Center and The Restorative Center of Newburgh. All programs are free for HCSD youth. Visit www.bindlestiff.org-kids for information and registration.

The W. E. B. Du Bois Center for Freedom and Democracy will present a roundtable discussion on the life and legacy of Elizabeth Freeman, the first enslaved African American to successfully sue for her freedom in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Freeman never had an opportunity to tell her own story publicly, and subsequent interpretation has largely been shaped by descendants of her white employers, with a focus on her years as their “devoted servant.” In this roundtable, historians Dr. Kerri Greenidge, Dr. Sari Edelstein, Dr. Kendra T. Field, and Dr. Frances Jones Sneed will engage with the realities of Freeman’s complex story and use it as an entryway into a larger conversation about stories, silences, and the ethics of African American public history. The roundtable discussion will take place at 4:00 p.m. at Dewey Hall and be followed by a reception. For details, visit www.duboisfreedomcenter.org.
Elizabeth Freeman and the telling of Black Stories is cosponsored by the African American Trail Project at Tufts University and Dewey Memorial Hall and is supported by the Sheffield Historical Society.
The roundtable is the first in a series of events honoring Elizabeth Freeman’s journey to freedom to take place in Sheffield this weekend. For the full schedule of events go to: https://sheffieldhistory.weebly.com/elizabeth-freeman-monument.html

Clover and Sundream perform at The Avalon Lounge in Catskill with a live webstream at wgxc.org and broadcast on 90.7-FM.
Clover wisps you away into a world of angelic anthems. Inspired by the likes of Lake Street Dive, Lianne La Havas, Amy Winehouse, Carole King, and Joni Mitchell, she warmly welcomes you with a blend of soul, rock, and pop that echoes timelessness.
At a crossroads of folk, blues, and hip-hop there’s a frolicking troubadour by the name of Dani Sundream. He’ll send you humming all the way home.

Drawing on the catalogue of popular melodies about the Great Lunar Body, from the well-known to the obscure, from Gilbert & Sullivan to Henry Mancini, Tom Judson (accompanying himself on the piano) offers a panoply of tunes on a subject that has proved irresistible to songwriters. “Tom Judson is Looney: Songs About the Moon,” an unforgettable evening of scintillating and sophisticated music-making, will be presented on Bridge Street Theatre’s “Priscilla” main stage.

In the upstairs lounge; no cover, pass the hat. Bobby Previte pulls a monstrous sextet through some of the iconic music from the Hard Bop 60s, the Loft Jazz 70s, the Free Music 80s, the "Downtown" 90s, and beyond. Featuring an absolutely crushing band: John Esposito, piano, Keith Pray, saxophones, Joe Fieldler, trombone, Nick Edwards, bass, and Dylan Canterbury, trumpet. Every Sunday will be in an "open rehearsal" format, so from time to time you might hear them, start, stop, fix, edit, or do those things musicians do to "get ready" for you, the audience.
