Dear Friends: Leaf Peeper & Sterling Art Show In Fair Haven Fair Haven’s 9th Annual Leaf Peeper Weekend was a success! The Trail basket winner was Kristine Sova. Her mom, Colleen accepted the basket. See picture on left. A big part of Leaf Peeper weekend is the Sterling Art Show. This competitive show and sale had some spectacular entries. Ribbons were awarded in each category, including People's Choice for Adult and Youth categories. People's Choice Adult: Sarah Irland and her Pumpkin Patch. People's Choice Youth: Jada Brown - photography. A complete winners list is on the Events page. Paul Garland, local artist "extraordinaire" and loyal FHAC member/supporter, is having a one person exhibition of 35 new paintings at Axom Gallery, 661 South Avenue, Rochester - titled The Dude Does Not Abide . It opened earlier in September and was recently extended through January 6. This is his fifth solo exhibition at Axom Gallery since 2012. If you find yourself in Rochester during its run check it out. There is no admission fee to the gallery and there is an interesting shop adjacent to the exhibition. The Axom hours are 11-6 Wednesday-Friday and Saturday 11-5. Closed Monday and Tuesday. There may be several of us planning a "field trip" to Rochester to see the show one Wednesday later this Fall. If you're interested in joining us let us know and we can coordinate! Looking forward to seeing you there! Please note our membership year started June 1st. If you have not recently submitted a membership form, then your membership has lapsed. Forms will be available at the performances should you wish to renew then. **************************************** Our purpose is to enhance involvement in the arts for everyone in the greater Fair Haven community, and to support education in the arts for all ages.
