Chembo honed his skills at The Harbor Conservatory for the Performing Arts in New York and at the prestigious La Escuela Nacional de Arte in Havana\, Cuba under the direction of the great Chucho Valdés.His intense studies with such legends channeled his energy onto a path where he has now created a reputation for himself among musicians and the public. Today\, he is considered as one of the best hard-hitting\, versatile percussionists around. Chembo has toured with many major artists throughout Europe\, Asia\, North & South America\, and the Caribbean. He received a GRAMMY nomination for “Best Latin Jazz Album” for his CD release Things I Wanted To Do.As a part of this evening’s program\, a long-time collaborator and friend\, poet and spoken word artist David Gonzalez will join the group on stage. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Artist's Website URL:https://lakegeorgearts.org/event/chembo-corniel-quintet/ LOCATION:NY CATEGORIES:Jazz at the lake ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://lakegeorgearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Aaron-Davis-photo-shot-300x300-1.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220831T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220831T210000 DTSTAMP:20260415T130322 CREATED:20220411T165436Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220720T142730Z UID:7319-1661972400-1661979600@lakegeorgearts.org SUMMARY:The McKrells DESCRIPTION:“It’s positively exhilarating to be swept away by a regional band’s CD. The songwriting talent in this band is mind boggling. Why aren’t The McKrells better known and why aren’t they with a major recording label???” – Bluegrass Now Magazine. “If bands were paid by the number of notes they played\, soulfulness\, conviction\, confidence or black leather the McKrells would have bagged most of the money Thursday. Kevin McKrell owned the stage and crowd as usual and sang “It’s Not Me” as the country-est song of the night. They were a delicious bonus and surprise.” – The Daily Gazette \n______________________________________________ \nOur Summer Concert Series brings the most FUN bands to Shepard Park for concerts on Wednesday nights in July and August.  All of our concerts are FREE – so grab your family and friends and bring them to Lake George for an evening of great music!\n\nView our Complete Summer Concert Series Event Calendar HERE \nOur Summer Concert Series would not be possible without the support of The Town of Lake George\, The Village of Lake George\, The New York State Council on the Arts\, and our generous members and supporters! \n\n \n  \n  URL:https://lakegeorgearts.org/event/the-mckrells/ LOCATION:NY CATEGORIES:Summer Concert Series ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://lakegeorgearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/August-31-1-1024x568-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220825T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220825T210000 DTSTAMP:20260415T130322 CREATED:20220411T165120Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220720T142756Z UID:7318-1661454000-1661461200@lakegeorgearts.org SUMMARY:Alex Torres & His Latin Orchestra DESCRIPTION:Formed October 1980 in Amsterdam\, NY\, this 12 piece orchestra is led by the Bronx-born bassist Alex Torres.

From the woods of Northern New Jersey\, the Outcrops bring original blues-infused rock’n’roll. The four-piece band was formed in 2016 by lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Cassidy Rain & lead guitarist Bryan Schroeder. As a singer\, Cassidy has been compared to Bonnie Raitt and Susan Tedeschi but her raw sensibility as front person could as easily bring comparisons to blues legends like Howlin Wolf or Muddy Waters. Bryan’s playing falls somewhere between Duane Allman and Derek Trucks\, as many fans have pointed out. Bryan has also noted Jerry Garcia as a major influence. His long flowing lead lines throughout songs intertwine with Cassidy’s vocal phrases to create a very melodic sound that sets the tone for The Outcrops. The rhythm section of the band includes Jason Casanovas on bass and Max Adler on drums. Both Max and Jason bring a funk and soul feel that melds beautifully with Cassidy and Bryan creating the perfect band tag: Rock & Roll\, Blues & Soul.\n______________________________________________ \nOur Summer Concert Series brings the most FUN bands to Shepard Park for concerts on Wednesday nights in July and August.  All of our concerts are FREE – so grab your family and friends and bring them to Lake George for an evening of great music!\n\nView our Complete Summer Concert Series Event Calendar HERE \nOur Summer Concert Series would not be possible without the support of The Town of Lake George\, The Village of Lake George\, The New York State Council on the Arts\, and our generous members and supporters! \n\n \n  \n  URL:https://lakegeorgearts.org/event/the-outcrops/ LOCATION:NY CATEGORIES:Summer Concert Series ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://lakegeorgearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/123-1-1024x575-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220727T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220727T210000 DTSTAMP:20260415T130322 CREATED:20220411T163155Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220720T142918Z UID:7314-1658948400-1658955600@lakegeorgearts.org SUMMARY:The Twangtown Paramours DESCRIPTION:Nashville-based husband-and-wife duo Mike T.

Join us for an opening reception at the gallery for the artists on Saturday\, July 16\, 4 – 6 PM. \nIrja Bodén’s ceramic work combines raw clay and glazes in a rich textured surface. Her series “To Dress a Ptarmigan” refers to her hometown\, Kiruna (67.8558° N) in Sweden\, north of the arctic circle. It is the inspiration for much of her work since 2018. She says: “The title references Kiruna\, which in Sápmi means ptarmigan. The city’s center\, now unstable after decades of iron mining\, is being destroyed and rebuilt in a new location\, to a dismaying loss. Yet\, the area is also known for many things\, among them spectacular shows of aurora borealis. So Kiruna exists in tension between what is above and below.” \nIrja Bodén earned her BFA in painting from SUNY Potsdam\, and a BA in Social Science from Lund University\, Sweden.

She says: “I love the expression ‘force of nature’.  I think about cycles\, evaporation\, respiration\, erosion\, gentle and violent forces at a moment of change. The shape of things at moments of transformation\, how forces intersect with our connection to place\, our connection to our environment\, both built and natural\, is fascinating to me.” \nBeth Humphrey earned her BFA from Minneapolis College of Art & Design\, and a Certificate in Craft\, Surface Design\, Oregon College of Art & Craft. Recent solo exhibitions were presented at Unison Arts\, New Paltz\, NY and Deepdive Projects\, Cleveland OH. She has been included in numerous group exhibitions\, including Ephemerally Occupied\, Shaker Heritage Society\, Albany NY; Pieced Together\, Art at Albany Public Library with Olpalka Gallery\, Albany NY; Not Just another Anthropocentric Love Story\, Trestle Gallery\, Brooklyn NY; Rhizomatic\, William Blizzard Gallery Springfield College\, Springfield MA; Artists of the Mohawk Hudson Region\, Albany Institute for History & Art\, Albany NY; Cut & Color\, Albany International Airport Gallery\, Albany NY; and Translations\, Albany Center Gallery\, Albany NY.

Most prominently developed in 1930’s and 40’s Paris\, this genre has been kept alive through a long line of gypsy jazz artists since that time. \nThe instrumentation of the full quintet allows HCS to explore this style throughout the range of its roots\, true to its origins while subtly expanding the genre. Hot Club’s repertoire covers the range from sweet\, soulful balladry\, through hard driving swing\, and fiery\, upbeat tempos\, sure to bring a smile and irresistible desire to move.” \n______________________________________________ \nOur Summer Concert Series brings the most FUN bands to Shepard Park for concerts on Wednesday nights in July and August.  All of our concerts are FREE – so grab your family and friends and bring them to Lake George for an evening of great music!\n\nView our Complete Summer Concert Series Event Calendar HERE \nOur Summer Concert Series would not be possible without the support of The Town of Lake George\, The Village of Lake George\, The New York State Council on the Arts\, and our generous members and supporters! \n\n \n  \n  URL:https://lakegeorgearts.org/event/annie-the-hedonists-3/ LOCATION:NY ATTACH;FMTTYPE=: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20220618 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20220626 DTSTAMP:20260415T130322 CREATED:20220512T192943Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220512T192943Z UID:8091-1655510400-1656201599@lakegeorgearts.org SUMMARY:Talent Unlimited!

Instead\, please join us for a Closing Reception for the artist on Saturday\, June 4\, from 2 – 4 pm! \nListen to North Country Public Radio’s interview with Bugzdale HERE! \nBugzdale is from Mandeville\, Jamaica\, and grew up in New York City. His Jamaican-American background\, and ties to communities in Queens\, NY\, and Jamaica\, as well as other places\, old family photos\, and memories\, all inform his art. Through drawing\, painting\, and a variety of other media Bugzdale aims to amplify ideas about the black experience in our society. He says: “I focus on the themes that affect my community: class\, race\, police brutality\, corrupt government\, death\, and other issues\, to show the way in which black men and women are made targets\, and to find a way to celebrate the lives of these under-represented individuals. I create a world where these people can survive\, and find a way to be themselves\, while being free from imprisonment\, both metaphorical and real. I want to represent the ‘humanness’ of these figures\, outside of media stereotypes”. \nBugzdale earned his Associates Degree of Applied Science in New Media Technology from LaGuardia Community College\, Long Island City\, NY\, and both his Bachelor of Fine Art Degree and Masters of Fine Art Degree in Studio Art from SUNY at Albany University. His awards include a Painting & Drawing Departmental Award and the Roanne Kulakoff Award\, both through SUNY Albany\, NY.

Apfel DESCRIPTION:       \nThe Lake George Arts Project’s Courthouse Gallery presents “Games of Chance”\, a solo exhibition of paintings by Fern T. Apfel. \nListen to NCPR’s interview with Fern HERE.\nView Dayna Peck’s interview with Fern on Look TV’s recent episode of “Where’s Dayna?” HERE.\nView our online talk with the artist from Saturday\, March 19 HERE.\n \nAbstraction and narration fold together in Fern Apfel’s acrylic paintings. Her images contain memorabilia she has collected over many years.  Playing cards\, letters\, handwritten notes and other various ephemera are placed on top\, or layered above\, colored backgrounds in an intentionally considered minimal composition. In our contemporary time\, where so much communication is digital\, and emails are often deleted\, these painted objects can center and ground us in the physical world\, reminding us of our connections and threads of discourse through time\, triggering memory\, as well as recording our lives. Intricate and intimate\, all the lettering is done freehand. \nShe says: “Most of the letters in my paintings can be read. They come from different decades and locations\, but their content is amazingly and endearingly timeless. My paintings are about tracking the days of our lives: what we did when\, who we saw\, wrote to or thought about. Carefully placed\, an empty notebook can evoke an elusive and often ambiguous new meaning\, and a box of old playing cards can remind us of a past time. Playing cards can become our companions on a rainy afternoon or our accomplices in a magic trick. They suggest that we ponder the notion of chance and unpredictability in our lives”. \nFern Apfel earned her BA at the State University of NY at New Paltz\, and also studied at The Art Students League of New York. She has exhibited widely in the Hudson Valley & Capital Region of New York where she lives. Currently her work is included in a show titled Pieced Together\, at Pine Bush Library in Albany\, NY\, and a solo exhibition of her work will take place in early 2023 (date TBA) in the Main Gallery of The Arts Center of the Capital Region in Troy\, NY.  Recent past exhibitions include The Vision of Care\, Woodstock Art Association. & Museum (Juror: Robert Shane\, The Brooklyn Rail); Fence & Fence Select\, The Art center of the Capital Region\, Troy\, NY; One in a Year 2020: Virtual Exhibition\, The Painting Center\, NY\, NY; Fence & Fence Select – Best in Show\, The Art Center of the Capital Region\, Troy\, NY (Juror: Ian Berry\, Director of The Tang Teaching Museum\, Skidmore College); Making a Way\, South Bend Museum of Art\, South Bend\, IN; 2020 National Juried Exhibition\, First Street Gallery\, NY\, NY (Juror: Andrew Arnot\, Tibor de Nagy Gallery); National Prize Show\, Cambridge\, MA Art Assoc. (Juror: Sharon Butler\, Two Coats of Paint); About What’s Going On\, Hopkinton Center for the Arts\, Hopkinton\, MA; En Masse\, Thompson Giroux Gallery\, Chatham\, NY; Upstate Invitational 2019\, Laffer Gallery\, Schuylerville\, NY (Juror: Laura Von Rosk); Ear to the ground\, Ely Center for Contemporary Art\, New Haven\, CT (Curator: Julie Torres).  In addition\, Apfel’s work has been has exhibited at the Davis Orton and Concepto Galleries in Hudson\, NY; The Ely Center for Contemporary Art in New Haven\, CT; PULP Gallery in Holyoke\, MA; Albany Center Gallery\, Albany\, NY; and Collar Works\, Troy\, NY.  Her work has been included in numerous presentations of “Artists of the Mohawk Hudson Regionial”\, and she is four-time recipient of “Mohawk Hudson Regional Purchase Awards”.

It’s art; I’m not on a soapbox. And I try for a light touch\, to keep a bit of humor in it… Even though these are important issues\, I like being a little ironic and humorous about them\, so it is not so serious and not so ‘down’ an experience to look at these… but it is something that sticks with you\, rather than repels you…” \nParker’s sensitivity toward his subjects\, whether it is an intricate sculptural replica of a fishing village\, or paintings\, drawings and prints of ocean wildlife\, trees\, or maps\, his empathetic hand\, through a variety of mediums\, leaves reasons for hope. While referencing the abuse and imbalance of our planet’s resources\, either through land or sea\, and the accelerated change to our environments\, economies\, and the natural world as we currently know it\, there is also a sense of the doggedness determination of life to persist under such constraints. \nKingsley Parker earned his BA in American Literature from Middlebury College VT\, and MA in Fine Arts from Hunter College in New York City.  He also studied sculpture at University of Hartford Art School\, and printmaking at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston MA. His recent solo exhibitions include A World of Hurt (2021)\, and Oceans Apart (2016) at Thompson Giroux Gallery\, Chatham\, NY; UpRiver\, my journey home\, Walnut Hill Fine Art\, Hudson\, NY; UpRiver installation\, Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology\, New York\, NY; and Diminishing Expectations\, Bond Street Gallery\, Brooklyn\, NY. His work has been featured in group exhibitions at Albany Center Gallery; Albany Institute of History and Art\, Albany International Airport Gallery\, Albany\, NY; Re-Institute\, Millerton\, NY; Kentler International Drawing Space\, Red Hook\, NY; Time and Space Limited\, Hudson\, NY; City University\, Jersey City NJ; and the Hyde Collection\, Glen Falls\, NY. His awards include a Visual Arts Sea Grant of Rhode Island; a scholarship from ArtWeek\, Great Spruce Head Island\, ME; a $10\,000 grant from AE Ventures for a printmaking sabbatical in Italy; and residencies at the Scuola Internazionale di Grafica\, Venezia\, Italia; Tipoteca Italiana\, Museo del Carattere e del la Tipografia\, Cornuda\, Italia; and a six month Scholarship residency at Manhattan Graphics Center.

With a minimalist sensibility she draws inspiration from poems\, her personal experience and perceptions of the everyday. \nParallel Play is the term for a stage in early childhood development\, where children\, playing side by side\, do not interact\, though they may be doing the same thing. For example\, one may have a backhoe and the other may be playing with a crane\, but they do not cooperate to make something. Or\, if they’re at the beach they may each be building a sandcastle but they won’t build a city together. \nIn the context of this exhibition\, three related series of works: sewn fabric drawings\, large woolen quilts\, and tiny linen collages\, share the unique space of the Courthouse Gallery\, each adhering to its own\, independent\, installation plan. Seen together\, the works translate fleeting glimpses of color pairings into tactile reminders of place and experience\, becoming an abstract archive of things noticed. Just as one day folds into another\, and another\, it is their accumulation that gives form to the whole. \nTodd’s involvement with textiles began early. She says: “When I was seven years old my grandmother taught me how to knit. Our first project was a red mohair sweater.  At about the same time another well-intentioned mentor helped me to sew clothes for my Barbie doll. It’s possible my career as an artist began then… Ever since\, though I have worked with many different materials\, and read and looked widely\, textiles remain central to my practice. It’s the conversation between material and process and meaning that keeps me going”. \nBarbara Todd earned her B.A. in fine art from the University of Guelph in Ontario\, Canada. Her work has been featured in major exhibitions across Canada\, including her quilt series Security Blankets\, which was organized by the Southern Alberta Art Gallery\, and traveled throughout Canada from 1992 to 1995. More recent exhibitions include Sculpture – Art Textile\, Biennale de sculpture de St. Jean Port-Joli\, St. Jean Port-Joli\, Québec; Mohawk-Hudson Regional Invitational Exhibition (2020)\, Albany Center Gallery\, Albany\, NY; In Faux-Structure\, Opalka Gallery\, Albany\, NY; Artists of the Mohawk Hudson Region (2019)\, The Hyde Collection\, Glens Falls\, NY; Fait-main/Hand-made\, Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec\, Québec; Bombhead\, Vancouver Art Gallery\, Vancouver\, BC; Home – Collar Works\, Troy\, NY; Interwoven\, Albany Public Library\, Albany\, NY; Reclamation\, Collar Works\, Troy\, NY; and Barbara Todd: Colour Play\, Galerie Art Mûr\, Montréal\, QC. Her awards include grants from the Canada Council for the Arts\, the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec\, and residencies at Banff Centre for the Arts\, Banff\, Canada\, and Millay Colony\, Austerlitz\, NY. Her work is represented in many private and public collections\, including the Montréal Museum of Fine Arts\, the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec\, the Canada Council Art Bank\, the Vancouver Art Gallery\, the Winnipeg Art Gallery and the Canadian Museum of History. Her public commissions\, include “Many Little Plans” for the St. Patrick Subway Station in Toronto\, Canada and “Jardin de guérison” (Healing Garden)\, a one-hundred foot long colored glass mural for Sacred Heart Hospital\, Montréal. She has taught in the Studio Arts Department at Concordia University\, Montréal\, and in the Arts Department at Emma Willard School in Troy\, NY. Todd lives and works in Troy\, NY.

A House For Arts: Calligraphy Meets Abstraction with Yeachin Tsai \, and view Look TV’s recent episode of “Where’s Dayna?” HERE. \nYeachin Tsai’s art swings between the seen world of rhythmic colors and forms\, and the unseen world of momentum and energies. While growing up in Taiwan\, Tsai studied traditional Chinese brush painting and calligraphy\, and she would later incorporate that training into her work after moving to New York. Rather than building up a painting surface\, she creates a surface that soaks in paint – canvases prepared with grounds that behave like traditional rice paper\, pulling the paint in. \nSummer Vibes\, acrylic on canvas\, 66 x 56 inches. \nShe says: “I’ve always been intrigued by form\, pattern and colors from nature. My interest may have started when I was four years old. I remember seeing the floating\, shining dust particles reflecting the sunlight in the stale attic air of my family’s old house. The magic quality of nowness left an unspeakable feeling in my mind… I want to create artwork that is primordial and timeless\, ancient yet modern. I wish to catch the symbolism and momentum of the flow. The materials are used to reflect the feelings and perceptions I have experienced in life – the ever changing\, transient\, fleeting moments of this dynamic\, chaotic yet harmonious worl \nYeachin Tsai earned her BFA degree from National Taiwan Normal University\, and MFA degree Brooklyn College of the City University of New York. Her recent exhibitions include Blue\, Gallery at 46 Green Street\, Hudson\, NY; Upstate Artists\, The Laffer Gallery\, Schuylerville\, NY; All is Safely Gathered In\, Spring Street Gallery\, Saratoga Springs\, NY; Small Works\, 440 Gallery\, Brooklyn\, NYC\,  Artists of the Mohawk Hudson Region (2019)Exhibition\, The Hyde Collection\, NY\, The Unusuals\, Invitational\, The Painting Center\, Chelsea\, NYC; Printmakers Open Portfolio (part of the Screenprint Biennial 2018)\, The Opalka Gallery\, Albany\, NY;  Creations: Connections and Collections\, Albany Center Gallery\, Albany\, NY; Article 13\, The LAB at Collar Works\, Troy\, NY; Endless Forms Most Beautiful\, Four Person Show\, Scarlet Seven Fine Art Gallery\, Troy\, NY; and Winter Joy\, a solo exhibition at Pause Gallery\, Troy\, New York in 2019.
