Hello friends,

Art Lab is sending a belated thank you for your support during our spring silent

auction fundraiser. Thank you, it was a great success, and that is due to your support

- as parents, children, artists, donors and community members - of the vision of

arts being available to all.

Thank you!

4th of July: Thank you to those who marched and here are the instructions for the kites we made

Art Lab at the Market: On Saturday July 5th we will be at the Saugerties Farmer's

Market from 10-1 doing art and hanging out in the tent in the center of the market.

We are thrilled to have Zzoe Rowan, of Gnomon Shadow Theater fame

leading the experiences we provide in the tent this summer. Come and see what art

we are sowing each week and sample the wares and support the work of your community

farmers - eat, drink, play, and be merry.

A note about Sharon and Zzoe and Gnomon Shadow Theatre. Art Lab is proud to showcase

this incredible team and the creative cauldron they cook-up together. We have gotten

grants from the Dutchess County Arts Council, the Puffin Foundation and are working

on others to support their production this November of Shadows of the Catskills,

a shadow-puppet, music, dance performance of the legends and history of the Catskills.

Stop by the table at the Farmers Market and check out our website periodically to

see what is going on with this great venture and if you are interested in helping

out in any way (e.g. publicity, local granting, play production) we would love to

have you join us. Check out their website to get a flavor of what we have to look forward to.

Check out our calendar on the website for other cool stuff we have going on or simply

pick one up at the Market when you come by on Saturday.

Let us know if you might join us on Friday in the parade (and where you might join

us). The more the merrier.

Cerulean skies,

Katie
