Come make a lasting arts and crafts piece that can be enjoyed for years to come!

The second session will see participants painting the birds they fashioned, adhering them to the “barn,” and adding the ramshackle “boards” to create the framework in which the bird takes shelter.

4:00:pmMeet the Artist Reception at Micropolis Gallery
Micropolis Cooperative Gallery, located inside Mohawk Harvest Cooperative Market at 30 N. Main St. in Gloversville, will host a “Meet the Artists Reception” on Sept. 20 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.The featured guest artist is Garlyn MaGinnis, who is a contemporary abstract landscape painter.Her passion for painting began in early childhood, first inspired by her mother, who was also an artist. Growing up in the idyllic woodland of Te-No-To-Ge, she developed an interest in Native American art and spirituality. While in college, a semester in Greece and Egypt deepened her interest in ancient culture and influenced her artmaking. Garlyn graduated with honors from The College of Saint Rose in 1993 with a bachelor’s degree in graphic design. After college, she worked as a historic site interpreter and a stained glass artisan.Garlyn has spent the last two decades raising three children and working at her hometown school, all the while painting various subject matters. In 2020, she almost put her brushes away for good. It was a turning point. She would either find her voice in paint or quit. The pandemic lockdown provided an opportunity for Garlyn to contemplate her authentic place in the art world. She began making the kind of art she wanted to see more of. Weathered, well-worn, rustic, oxidized surfaces began to emerge and dissipate into wispy cloud mists and stormy seas. Her small studies have since evolved into much larger works.Garlyn’s paintings are shown in numerous art exhibits and displayed in private homes across the country. Garlyn is a member of the Cooperstown Art Association, The Smithy Gallery, The Arts Factory, The Paul Nigra Center for Creative Arts, and Mohawk Valley Center for the Arts.“My paintings convey the essence of land and the formlessness of atmosphere through abstraction and minimalism. Often blending pigments with my bare hands and using a variety of mark making tools, I create “weathered” canvases. Texture is applied with gesso, sawdust, and coffee grounds, which is then scraped and sanded away until the desired effect is achieved. Internal dialogue and environmental forces are revealed in layers of acrylic paint and mixed media. My paintings welcome you into ethereal realms where you will find a meditative space for your own inner reflection,” Garlyn said.

The Glove Education Series and The Elizabeth Cady Stanton Hometown Association Present: Iron Jawed Angels, a little known yet integral piece of American history, based on the life of Alice Paul and Lucy Burns, two young, radical women who were instrumental in securing the right to vote in America.
Alice Paul and the women of the 1917 Women’s Suffrage movement fight for future generations right to vote and run for office. Sacrificing their health, marriages and the limited amount of freedom they had, women were imprisoned and force fed after picketing and hunger-striking against war-time president, Woodrow Wilson; but survived to see the results of their efforts.
The program will begin with a historical presentation by Fulton County Historian, Samantha Hall-Saladino, highlighting Fulton County’s role in the Women’s Suffrage Movement.
There will also be voter registration information available both before and after the event.

6:00:pmThe Underground Railroad Revisited with Paul & Mary Liz Stewart, UGRR Education Center at Fulton County Museum
The Underground Railroad, often remembered as being characterized by tunnels, dark of night escapes, coded language and hidey-holes, was far more extensive and complex than these ideas have led us to believe. In the midst of significant pro-slavery sentiment, New York State was home to many abolitionists working to abolish the institution of slavery in our state and nation and it was visited by many who had escaped enslavement and sought a life of freedom. Join with Paul and Mary Liz Stewart of Underground Railroad Education Center as they share a new interpretation of a very old story and its relationship with us today. Donations appreciated.

7:00:pmLove the Glove Film Series Presents: Juno at The Glove Theatre (2 Showings 2PM & 7 PM)
The Love the Glove Film Series’ Back to School: Strong Girls Edition concludes with the “what do I do now” coming of age comedy, Juno, starring Elliot (Ellen) Page, Michael Cera, Jason Bateman, and Jennifer Garner!
A tale told over four seasons, starting in autumn when Juno, a 16-year-old high-school junior in Minnesota, discovers she’s pregnant after one event in a chair with her best friend, Bleeker. In the waiting room of an abortion clinic, the quirky and whip-sharp Juno decides to give birth and to place the child with an adoptive couple. She finds one in the PennySaver personals, contacts them, tells her dad and step-mother, and carries on with school. The chosen parents, upscale yuppies (one of whom is cool and laid back, the other meticulous and uptight), meet Juno, sign papers, and the year unfolds. Will Juno’s plan work, can she improvise, and what about Bleeker?
Runtime: 1h 36m
