What a way to spend a Saturday! 🎨☀️⁣
⁣
Our gardens came alive with color this weekend as artists Chris Soria and Misha Tyutyunik created a collaborative painting live at Edward Hopper House.⁣
⁣
Visitors watched the work take shape throughout the afternoon, while our younger artists got creative with Hopper-inspired coloring activities of their own. ⁣
⁣
Add in a beautiful summer day, plenty of time to explore the grounds, and a visit from the Taco Boys food truck, and it was a wonderful afternoon of art and community.⁣
⁣
Thank you to Chris and Misha for sharing their creative process with us, and to Perry Lawson Fine Art and 90 North for helping make the day possible.⁣
⁣
And thank you to everyone who stopped by, picked up a crayon, watched the artists at work, or simply spent part of their Saturday with us!⁣

"The loneliness thing is overdone. She's just looking out a window."⁣
- Edward Hopper, on Cape Cod Morning⁣
⁣
Hopper is often celebrated for capturing isolation in American life, but he resisted being defined by that interpretation. When asked about the loneliness people saw in his paintings, he suggested it might reflect something in himself, or perhaps in the broader human condition.⁣
⁣
What emotions do Hopper's paintings evoke for you? Solitude, loneliness, peace, nostalgia, curiosity...or something entirely different?⁣

What a way to close out the 46th annual Jazz in the Garden season! 🎶⁣
⁣
The rain may have moved both our Benefit Reception and Season Finale concert indoors, but it didn’t dampen the spirit of the evening. The musicians and our generous sponsors were truly the stars!⁣
⁣
We were thrilled to celebrate the remarkable Cameron Brown with an all-star concert and to present him with a stunning drawing by artist Brian Hart, capturing Cameron and his resonating bass. Cameron was delighted!⁣
⁣
Cameron was joined by an incredible lineup of musicians: Steven Bernstein on trumpet, flugelhorn and cornet; Lisa Parrott on alto, baritone and soprano saxophones; Jason Rigby on soprano and tenor saxophones; and Tony Jefferson on drums and cymbals. Special thanks to Steven for joining the band that evening, and to Anita Brown for her wonderful tribute to Cameron.⁣
⁣
Before the concert, Edward Hopper House was packed for our Benefit Reception. The galleries were buzzing, and the food was delicious. A very special thank you to Jo Berry and Marianne Savignon, along with La Promenade and Didier Dumas, for sharing their culinary talents and helping us create such a beautiful celebration.⁣
⁣
An evening like this takes many hands. Our thanks to music coordinator Hal Keshner, sound engineer Richard Quinn and jazz intern Jack Corrente for all they do throughout the season, and especially on those nights when the weather has other plans.⁣
⁣
Thank you as well to Chris Patsos and our music committee, our staff and volunteers who pitched in with everything from setup to stacking chairs, and all of our generous sponsors whose support makes Jazz in the Garden possible.⁣
⁣
And a huge thank you to Kim Cross and everyone at the Nyack Center for once again being such accommodating and supportive partners.⁣
⁣
As Eric Lawrence put it so perfectly: “Nyack is alive when there’s jazz in the garden. It’s a gift that keeps giving.”⁣
⁣
What a wonderful way to close out another season of Jazz in the Garden! 🎷⁣

This week’s image in our Fan Art series is by Joy Ritchie, a docent at the Columbus Museum of Art, who was inspired by the Museum’s very own Morning Sun. We love her sheepdog version of this iconic work!

“This is the condition of memory: sharp and soft, present and out of focus.” - James Prosek

In his painting Traces, James Prosek reflects on the red-winged blackbirds that return each February to the pond across from his home, and how their annual return has become intertwined with memories of his father.

“I do not know what memory is to a bird… I only know that when I watch the red-winged blackbirds arrive each February, I think about the nature of returning.”

In the exhibition catalog for James Prosek: Memory, Trees & Shadows - A Visual Conversation with Josephine Nivison Hopper, Edward Hopper, and Sarah Sockbeson, Prosek shares the stories and observations behind his work, offering another way to experience the ideas at the heart of the exhibition.

📖 The 52-page, fully illustrated catalog is available for sale at Edward Hopper House Museum & Study Center and online.

One of the best ways to honor Edward Hopper's legacy is to invest in the next generation of artists.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
That's why we're so proud of our award-winning Nighthawks Teen Leaders program, and why we're grateful for the continued partnership of Ellis Sotheby's International Realty, presenting sponsor of our Arts Education Benefit for the 11th consecutive year.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Designed for high school students, our Nighthawks Teen Leaders Program empowers young people to explore art, build leadership skills, and make meaningful connections through hands-on experiences at the museum and other cultural institutions. Along the way, they gain confidence, discover new perspectives, and help create engaging experiences for our community.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Just as Hopper's artistic journey began here in Nyack, today's young artists are discovering their own creative voices right here at his childhood home.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Because preserving Hopper's legacy isn't only about protecting the past. It's about investing in the future.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
✨ On October 4, our Arts Education Benefit will help ensure programs like Nighthawks Teen Leaders continue to inspire the next generation of artists. We hope you'll join us.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
See the link in the comments below for details and tickets. ⁣⁣

Celebrate History. Empower the Future. ⁣⁣

Please join us in welcoming Paul Lyren, our new Visitor Experience & Operations Manager, to the Edward Hopper House team! 👋⁣
⁣
Paul joined us on July 30 and wasted no time jumping right in. From Jazz in the Garden on his very first day to a recent special event at Sotheby’s featuring two of Edward Hopper’s Cobb’s Barn paintings, he’s had quite the introduction to EHHM!⁣
⁣
If Paul looks familiar, you may have seen him around downtown Nyack during his time at Big Red Books. A Nyack resident for the past four years, Paul brings experience spanning the arts, creative organizations, operations, events, and working with the public. His career has taken him from the Cleveland Museum of Art to Mattel and Marvel, and now to Edward Hopper House.⁣
⁣
Many of you have already had a chance to meet Paul at the House, in the garden, and around town. We’re excited to have him on the team!⁣
⁣
Next time you’re at the House, be sure to say hello and welcome Paul! ❤️⁣

A special thank you to our staff, trustees, and volunteers who jumped into action to make the move indoors possible, hauling equipment and supplies through the pouring rain. We’re so grateful for the teamwork and positive spirit that kept the evening going.⁣⁣
⁣
Thank you to the Nyack Center for welcoming us, and to everyone who braved the rain to join us for this beautiful night of music and remembrance.⁣⁣
