Dear Creatives and Artists,
As the Spring flowers emerge, we encourage everyone to get out and socialize together, sharing in the wonderful activities that bring us closer. There's never a dull moment in Saugerties! Enjoy live global music at The Local Saugerties, chamber music, recitals, and local musicians jamming at favorite restaurants. Dialogues for the Eye and Ear gather a great crowd at 9W Diner every first Tuesday of the month. Into poetry and prose? Join Blue Stone Poets for open mic the last Thursday of each month at Inquiring Minds. Visit the "Super Cute" group exhibit at Jane Street Art Center through May 10th. Figureworks at Green gallery on Partition Street features art all throughout their space. Savor spectacular restaurant meal from our local culinary artists. Many creatives will showcase their "Barkin' Around Saugerties" dog street sculptures at a preview event May 18. The street installation will be featured from Memorial Day to September 8th. Explore the offerings of Saugerties wellness specialists to help balance our lives and awaken our creative juices. Have you experienced a sound bath yet? We'll soon announce the date for the upcoming Saugerties Arts Commission Meet and Greet. We look forward to seeing you there!
(To post your events or news, please email this by the 20th of each month prior to arts@saugertiesarts.com)
Warm regards,
Saugerties Arts Commission Board
