Blue Mountain Lake, N.Y. - Join the Adirondack Museum for the Rustic Furniture Fair on Saturday, September 8 and Sunday, September 9.  Renowned artisans from throughout the United States will showcase and sell their one-of-a-kind pieces of furniture, furnishings, and artwork.

The Adirondack Museum’s Rustic Furniture Fair is recognized as the premier event of its kind in the country. This gathering of talented artisans includes both traditional and contemporary styles of furniture design, handcrafted from natural materials. A list of the sixty participating artisans can be found on the museum’s website at www.adkmuseum.org. Demonstrations of furniture making and painting will take place throughout the weekend. Exhibitors will answer questions about their work, or discuss custom made pieces.

In celebration of the 25^th or Silver Anniversary of the Rustic Fair, more than twenty-five artisans have elected to design and create a unique commemorative piece for this year’s show. Each piece will bear a tribute plaque.  A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the commemorative pieces will benefit the museum.

In addition, there will be a very special silent auction happening during the Fair featuring the works of Barney Bellinger, Randy Holden, Larry Post, Russ DeFonce, Jonathan Swartwout, Bill Perkins, Rick Pratt and Bob Jones.

The Village of Saranac Lake may declare municipal property that is not needed for municipal purposes as surplus and dispose of it. This is what the village hopes to do with a small parcel of land adjacent to 97 Main Street which is about 156 square feet in area.

A public hearing will be held on September 10th to hear from residents on the issue of the Village disposing of the property.

The Trudeau Institute announced today that Peter Lawson-Johnston, a fifth-generation member of the Guggenheim family, will discuss his memoir, “Growing Up Guggenheim: A Personal History of a Family Enterprise,” on Wednesday, September 12, in the John Black Room of the Saranac Laboratory Museum.

The event will begin with a reception at 5:30 pm and Lawson-Johnston will give a brief lecture at 6 pm. He also will be available to sign copies of his book following the lecture.
A grandson of Solomon R. Guggenheim, since 1964 Lawson-Johnston has been a trustee of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, which currently operates Guggenheim Museums in New York, Bilbao (Spain) and Berlin (Germany), along with the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice (Italy). He is presently honorary chairman of the foundation.

A graduate of the Lawrenceville School and the University of Virginia and a former reporter for the Baltimore Sun, Lawson-Johnston has also served as a senior partner at his family holding company, Guggenheim Brothers, since 1971, having joined the firm as a partner in 1962. He has also been a director of the Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation since 1968 and its chairman since 1971.

Walter Cronkite described Growing Up Guggenheim, first published in May 2005, as a “book of extraordinary and surprising revelations by a Guggenheim about the private lives of that fabulous and opulent family.” And William F. Buckley Jr. called Lawson-Johnston’s memoir a “splendid book, original, readable, dramatic, and instructive.”
Local residents are encouraged to attend the September 12 event and share with Lawson-Johnston and his daughter, Mary (Mimi) Lawson-Johnston Howe (vice president of the Peggy Guggenheim Collection), any personal experiences they may have had with philanthropist Edmond A. Guggenheim, who helped supervise his family’s copper holdings for nearly 50 years and summered in the Adirondacks. Guggenheim built the Guggenheim Camp on Lower Saranac Lake, which he owned from 1917 to 1963. He also acquired the famed Algonquin Hotel, which was located on an adjacent property, and donated it to the Trudeau Institute, which replaced the structure with their present building in the late 1950s.
The event, co-sponsored by the Trudeau Institute, Historic Saranac Lake and local resident Lilo G. Levine, will conclude at approximately 7 pm and is free the public. The Saranac Laboratory Museum is located at 89 Church Street in Saranac Lake.
About Historic Saranac Lake Historic Saranac Lake is a not-for-profit, architectural preservation organization that captures and presents local history from its center at the Saranac Laboratory Museum.

Last one – Sept 20 – come celebrate the Arts in Saranac Lake with a stroll through our historic downtown.

Carousel to feature Watercolors by Valerie Patterson Sept. 20^th

 The thought provoking watercolors of Valerie Patterson will be on display at the Adirondack Carousel on Thursday, September 20^th from 5 to 7:30 as part of the Art Walk event in Saranac Lake.

Patterson’s striking watercolors reflect a sense of social consciousness in a broad range of themes.  She describes her motivation as a means to “create images that provoke action, thought and a feeling of commonality, often transcending the decorative, entertaining, or ‘easy’ in the hopes that my art can be a force for discovery, unity, humanity and support in difficult times”.

A prolific artist, Patterson has exhibited her work throughout the country.  Among her numerous awards are the 2009 Peace Prize for the Arts at the 1^st Annual Arts for Peace Exhibition in Dayton, Ohio and a 1^st Place Profile Award in the “HerStory Competition” at Manhattan Arts International in New York.

The art exhibit is part of the Adirondack Carousel’s vision to fuse art, education and entertainment in ways that foster imagination and inspire people of all ages.

The Carousel will be open during the fall from noon to 5 Wednesday through Sunday but is extending its hours to 7:30 on Sept. 20^th for Art Walk.  For more information, visit the carousel’s website at adirondackcarousel.org or friend the carousel on Facebook.

How does the painter get just such a shade of blue? How does a potter raise up a vessel from a lump on a wheel? And how on earth does metal get beaten into shapes like those?

Find out Sept 28-29, from 10 – 4 and Sept 30 from 12 – 4. Saranac Lake Art Works is presenting the sixth annual Northern Adirondack Artist at Work Studio Tour to help you answer just those questions. The Northern Adirondack region is renowned for its population of artists and craftspeople. By visiting artists in their studios, watching them create, and speaking with them about their work, you will gain insight into “how they do that”.

Over 70 artists are in their studios and represented in galleries during this last weekend of September. Many artists are clustered in the hamlets, allowing you to park and stroll through historic neighborhoods and business districts. Others are best reached by car – wouldn’t it be fun to get some friends together and drop in on a weaver, a potter, a painter, or a jewelry maker? While there, you might even find a piece to bring home, or to give to someone special. With over 70 participating artists, you are sure to find something right up your alley.

Watch for the yellow and black tour signs. Not all artists are available every day. Check the schedule online or pick up the Studio Guide from one of our sponsors who are our valuable assets, providing booklets, information, and much appreciated support for the Tour.

The Artists Studio Guide booklets can be picked up at the Adirondack Artists’ Guild, 52 Main Street, Saranac Lake. Questions? Call 518-891-2615. The booklet is a keeper, a year round resource for artist information. It can also be viewed online by clicking HERE. Check our Facebook page for updates on events. Tune in to North Country Public Radio, our media sponsor. For lodging, dining, and travel information, contact the Saranac Lake Area Chamber of Commerce at 518 891-1990.

Artist at Work Studio Tour is funded in part by a DCA grant from the New York State Council on the Arts administered by the Arts Council of the Northern Adirondacks.

Lake Placid, New York

You Be the Judge!

Audiences in over 300 Cities Spanning 6 Continents Unite for One Week for One Purpose . . .

to Judge the 10 Finalists in the

15^th Annual MANHATTAN SHORT Film Festival

New York, NY – Sept. 11^th, 2012 - Filmgoers in Lake Placid, New York, will unite with audiences in over 300 cities spanning six continents to view and judge the work of the next generation of filmmakers from around the world when the 15th Annual MANHATTAN SHORT Film Festival screens at the Lake Placid Center for the Arts in Lake Placid on Friday, September 28, at 7:30 PM. Tickets are $12 general admission, $10 for LPCA Members. For more information call 523-2512 or visit online at LakePlacidArts.org .

Out of 520 entries received from 49 countries around the world, MANHATTAN SHORT selected ten short films as finalists. Each film is 18 minutes or under in length. Countries represented this year include Norway, The Netherlands, Russia, England, Ireland, Peru, France, Romania, Spain and the USA, in what festival organizers describe as the “United Nations of Film Festivals.”

These short films will not only entertain a global audience, but will be judged by them as well. Filmgoers will be handed a voting card upon entry and asked to vote for the one film they feel should win. Votes are tallied at each participating cinema and submitted to festival headquarters where the winner will be announced in New York City, as well as posted on the net at www.ManhattanShort.com on Sunday, October 7th, at 10:00 PM.

With past finalists achieving the ultimate in recognition by being nominated and even winning the Oscar in the short film category, the Manhattan Short has become known as a breeding ground for the next big thing.

In one week, over 100,000 people from as far north as St. Petersburg, Russia, to as far south as Buenos Aires, Argentina, as far east as Kathmandu, Nepal, and as far west as Perth, Australia, to over 150 cinemas in 47 US States will come together to view and vote on these 10 films. “While the goal of any festival is to discover and promote new talent, the real aim of this festival is bringing communities together via stories from around the world,” says Nicholas Mason, MANHATTAN SHORT founder and director.

“Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined that what started as a small, relatively simple event when I projected a handful of short films onto the side of a truck on a downtown Manhattan street 15 years ago, would grow into what it is today, with communities all over the world getting together to celebrate via ten short films…it’s become like Earth Day—but with film,” adds Mason.
