SUMMARY:Exhibit Opening & Lunchtime Lecture on Friday\, November 15
DESCRIPTION:Join OHA Curator of History Robert Searing for a Lunchtime Lecture “Freedom Fighters: Civil Resistance and the Fight Against Slavery in Antebellum Syracuse” at noon on Friday\, November 15\, at Art in the Atrium. \n \nThis presentation examines the work of a small but dedicated group of abolitionists in Syracuse\, N.Y.\, led by Rev. Samuel May and Rev. Jermain Loguen. Loguen\, a man who escaped his own enslavement in Tennessee and settled in Syracuse in 1841\, became one of the era’s most successful and well-known Station Masters on the UGRR. These men and their compatriots helped make Syracuse a center for abolitionist activity and organization and were primary participants in of the era’s most significant acts of civil disobedience\, the Jerry Rescue\, in October 1851. Additionally\, the talk will place the efforts of local reformers in the larger national context of the growing sectional controversies over slavery\, which ultimately resulted in the Civil War in 1861. It ends with a discussion of the National Convention of Colored Men\, which met in Syracuse in October 1864. \nThis lecture is free and open to the public. It is part OHA’s programming around the current exhibit at Art in the Atrium\, “Freedom for All: Syracuse’s Colored Men’s Convention of 1864\,” opened in early November and running through the end of the year. \nCNY Art’s Art in the Atrium is located in downtown Syracuse at 201 East Washington Street. Light refreshments will be served. Street and garage parking is available in the nearby area. \nEmail OHA Project Manager for Events and Programs Lorna Oppedisano at lorna.oppedisano@cnyhistory.org with any questions.

SUMMARY:From Gilded to Gustav: Victorian and Arts & Crafts Era in Onondaga County Reception
DESCRIPTION:Replacing the two year long Downton Comes Downtown exhibit\, the Victorian Era and Arts & Crafts exhibit will highlight several of Syracuse’s major contributors to the Arts and Crafts movement\, 1900-1920s\, as well as feature many fine examples of period clothing\, architecture\, and furniture of the Victorian Era in Syracuse\, 1837-1901. \nItems of the Victorian Era will feature many fine examples of period clothing\, architecture\, and furniture. The exhibit will also include several pieces crafted by Gustav Stickley (who founded and published The Craftsman magazine in Syracuse in 1901)\, with his brothers L. and J.G. Stickley\, in addition to drawings and stained glass windows produced in Henry Keck’s workshop. Other items include architectural drawings by Ward Wellington Ward\, and pieces from the Onondaga Metal Shops. \nIn many respects\, the Arts and Crafts movement was a rebuke of the ornate styling\, designs\, and increasing mechanization of production in the Victorian period. The displays will allow for museum patrons to see these contrasting styles up close. \nJoin us on April 25th for the opening reception of this exhibit. From 4pm to 6pm enjoy the exhibit with light refreshments.

SUMMARY:Native Artists Exhibit Opening featuring work by Nancy Duffy\, Ronnie-Leigh Goeman\, and Stonehorse Goeman. 
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we start the New Year off with a co-exhibition from three local artists on Wednesday\, January 3rd. Artists include the late Nancy Duffy\, Ronnie-Leigh Goeman\, and Stonehorse Goeman. \nDuffy was a former resident of Syracuse and worked at News Channel 9. She is best known as the woman who put together the largest one-day event in Syracuse\, New York – the St. Patrick’s Day Parade – which is held annually in downtown Syracuse. She created a collection of chalk and charcoal drawings that features portraits from people that belong to one of the six nations within the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. The portraits include\, but are not limited to\, Irving Powless Jr.\, Oren Lyons\, Audrey Shenandoah\, Alice Papineau\, Leon Shenandoah\, and Ray Elm. \nThe exhibit will also feature work by Ronnie-Leigh and Stonehorse Goeman. Although Ronnie-Leigh uses traditional Iroquois methods of basket making\, she has evolved and elevated her art to another level\, in that she collaborates and incorporates the work of Stonehorse Goeman. Stonehorse sculpts the bases for the baskets\, thus creating “basket sculpture.” Each basket is elaborately woven\, using ash\, sweet grass\, and embellished with moose hair and quill. Her baskets bring to light the subject of invasive species threatening the native tree and plant life\, thus threatening the cultural future for learning the art of basketry. \nIf you have questions about events at the Center\, please call 315-453-6767 or 315-428-1864. \n

SUMMARY:Judaic Heritage Exhibit Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening reception for From Laying the Foundation to Forging Ahead: Jewish Contributions to Syracuse & Onondaga County on October 24th from 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm. \nAbout the exhibit: \nThe exhibit\, located on the first floor of the Onondaga Historical Museum\, emphasizes the Jewish role in advancing the social\, religious\, economic\, and political fabric of Syracuse and Onondaga County\, and is divided into four sections: Community\, Business\, Entertainment\, and Athletics. For instance\, Communityfocuses on the old Jewish neighborhood\, synagogues\, and people. Business concentrates on small to large Jewish-owned retail stores\, factories\, and other businesses such as Flah’s\, Fleischman’s\, SYROCO\, Oberdorfer Foundry\, and United Radio.  Entertainment highlights local and nationally-known song and comedy writers\, authors\, actors\, and singers such as Harold Arlen who wrote Somewhere Over the Rainbow\, Sime Silverman who founded Variety magazine\, and the Shubert brothers who amassed the largest theatrical empire in America.  Athletics features several local Jewish athletes and sports teams such as Dolph & Danny Schayes\, Myer Prinstein\, Dave Brodsky\, and the Young Men’s Hebrew Association’s championship basketball team. \nOHA would like to thank Howard Port\, Mike Moss\, and Linda Alexander for their knowledge of the content and much-welcomed assistance\, Ann Eppinger Port for her proofreading skills and editorial comments when reviewing the exhibit text\, and everyone from the Jewish community who contributed photographs and text for the exhibit.  OHA also would like to thank Alex Lyon & Son\, Inc.; The Jerome & Phyllis Charney Foundation; Arlene & Jerome R. Gerber Foundation; The Dorothy & Marshall M. Reisman Foundation; Mara & Mark Charlamb; Arnold & Libby Rubenstein; Philip Rubenstein & Cami Riley; Alexander & Charlotte Holstein; and David & Jeanne Holstein for their financial support of the exhibit.  Without the assistance of all these people\, this exhibit would not have come to fruition.
