Last weekend I had the pleasure of saying 'hello' to Leigh Keno of Antiques Roadshow fame. Our encounter took place on the last day of "ArtsWalk" in Hudson, NY. Always a good guy, Leigh spoke about his strong interest in very fine 20th Century Design.
By the way, a week earlier, I had an opportunity to share my 68th birthday with more than 50 friends on September 30 with Patrick and Alyson Milbourn as hosts at their M Gallery in Catskill, NY. The mood was relaxed and enjoyable, with the added benefit of a duo by entertainers Lex Grey and Jason Brown. Special thanks also to Sterling Swann and the many others who contributed their time, refreshments and excellent food.
What's coming up .. ? On Saturday, October 13, merchants along Catskill's Main Street will host their monthly 'Saturday Stroll', with shops and galleries staying open until 9 in the evening. Most will serve refreshments. This is always a popular event that attracts hundreds if not a thousand visitors to this picturesque historic community, exit #21 of the New York State Thruway. Special events during the afternoon are geared to children. All in all, a lot of fun for everyone! On Sunday, October 14, Beattie-Powers Place, a circa-1850 historic merchant's house, offers its annual 'Potluck Lunch' at 1 p.m. This important historic site is maintained by the Friends of Beattie-Powers, a volunteer group. Everyone is welcome. Bring a dish or a suggested donation of $10, you won't be disappointed. Also on tap is a performance by our favorite songstress, Lex Grey. It is as of a helicopter from Las Vegas has landed!
