WGXC will be at the opening of artist Matt Bua‘s Catamount People’s Museum at 21 West Bridge St. in Catskill. The museum is a handmade structure in the form of a lounging bobcat using discarded tree branches and cut-offs from local mills. WGXC will have a live webcast from 2-6 p.m. Sat., Sept. 4, with performances by Bradford Reed and his Amazing Pencilina and Carmen Borgia. From Bua, “The interior of this over-sized Lynx Rufus houses a collection of materials and displays celebrating the people, stories and history of the Catskill Mountains. Content for displays are collected from both historical organizations and the surrounding community. The museum has a unique focus of seamlessly blending the stories, visions and personal collections of residents with the voices of historians. The folk legends, urban myths and favorite, almost forgotten tide bits on display make this new public space a place to soak in what this area is really all about.”
