First Friday Skaneateles Art Night is an art walk that promotes understanding and commerce by giving the public a firsthand connection to artists and their artwork. This celebration of the visual and performing arts acquaints participants with high-quality art, contemporary to antique, in an environment that fosters interaction, education and community.
Look for merchants displaying a blue ribbon. Inside find an artist to speak with, while enjoying the commerce of the establishment. (more…)
Last week I was invited to be a guest on “Food For Thought” on WCNY. I cooked and talked about our Skaneateles Artisans Coop, First Friday Skaneateles Art Night and Canaltown Studios And Art Trails. This past Friday was our kick off for First Friday Skaneateles Art Night. It was fabulous, I was one of the featured artists at our gallery and my daughter Genoveffa was the musician. She plays the marimba instrument. I can tell you that my heart was filled with joy. It was one of those special moments that one remembers forever. The beauty of First Friday is that we have many merchants from Skaneateles that whether they sell art or not, on First Friday they exhibit art in their dwelling. Each month more and more merchants are coming on board. Our goal is to have all Skaneateles businesses take part in this celebration.
WCNY has offered us a wonderful opportunity for us to tell about all that is happening with the arts & our communities. The program will air on May 14th at 12:30 PM on WCNY. I loved it, I had so much fun.
PS: I cooked “Shrimps alla Siciliana” … Sicilian Shrimps…lol
