SUMMARY:Rockland and the Revolution - A 250th Anniversary Exploration
DESCRIPTION:Opening Sunday\, April 26\, 2026!  The Historical Society of Rockland County presents its newest exhibition\, “Rockland and the Revolution – A 250th Anniversary Exploration!” On view April 29-October 25\, 2026.  Wednesdays-Fridays & Sundays. On July 4\, 1774\, prominent men disaffected with colonial administration and taxation\, gathered in Tappan to adopt the Orangetown Resolutions\, a document that contained the seeds of the principles that later would be embodied in the Declaration of Independence.  In this special Semiquincentennial exhibition\, we take a close look at Rockland and the Revolutionary War\, often through the eyes of the local historians who since the 19th century have been shedding light on little-known people and incidents that helped form the nation we celebrate today.  CLICK HERE for more information.

SUMMARY:Caleb Weintraub: Both Sides of the Mirror
DESCRIPTION:Perry Lawson Fine Arts presents “Caleb Weintraub: Both Sides of the Mirror.” A new exhibition on view February 27-April 26\, 2026.  Weintraub’s work explores the tension between stability and disquiet\, treating the domestic space as both a source of comfort and the tension that unsettles it. Within these layered environments\, observation becomes both subject and object; watching and being watched coexist as inseparable conditions. Blending figural and landscape sensibilities into imagined spaces\, Weintraub situates his imagery between memory and myth.  CLICK HERE for details.

SUMMARY:Fugs Film!
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss River Town Film’s presentation of “Fugs Film!” Wednesday\, April 22\, 2026. 8PM. Formed in New York’s bohemian Lower East Side in 1964\, the Fugs were poet musicians who didn’t just reflect their time\, they nurtured it. Using musical satire to explore boundaries of free speech and antagonize the establishment\, they ignited an idea that was soon taken up by groups such as The Mothers of Invention\, Country Joe and the Fish\, and the MC5.  Founded by Ed Sanders\, a principal figure of the ‘60s counter culture\, along with fellow poet and artist Tuli Kupferberg and drummer Ken Weaver\, the Fugs connected a folkie ethos to rock and roll and sound collage\, and at times tapped the zeitgeist with popular hits like “Slum Goddess” and “Supergirl.” Produced and directed by Chuck Smith. Co-Produced by Ed Sanders and Myles Aronowitz. Meet the Filmmaker: Director Chuck Smith & Co-Producer Myles Aronowitz will discuss the film with the audience. CLICK HERE for details!
