Spanning four generations, the exhibition brings together works by Milton Avery and Sally Michel Avery, their daughter March Avery, her husband Philip G. Cavanaugh, their son Sean Cavanaugh, and his child Delilah Cavanaugh. For the first time, the public will have the opportunity to experience an intimate look at the art created in Woodstock by the Avery family — a body of work deeply rooted in American modernism.
Byrdcliffe presents Robin The Hammer & friends at the Byrdcliffe Theater - a highly original night of blues and tunes ranging from solo country blues to full band extravaganza with special guest appearances.
When civilization collapses, seven wildly different survivors gather for a very particular dinner: Edgar has decided this will be his last meal before he dies on his own terms, with the help of a death doula. But outside, the dead are rising—and inside, everyone has an opinion about how the living should live, die, and be saved. Love, democracy and zombies collide in this Grand Guignol staged reading, followed by a Zombie Dress Parade and an apocalyptic good time.
Obie Award winner Chris Wells and longtime collaborator Jeremy Bass perform an evening of original songs that are theatrical, wild, funny and filled with human tenderness. Their subjects range from NYC character studies to one-night stands, a harrowing run-in with an old friend, to the first night of summer camp. The pair are behind the cult-hit musical, Olsen Terror, and part of the downtown church of art, The Secret City.
