CCE was founded in 1989 by Evry Mann, who realized the need to bring innovative, high-quality arts education programs to the Kingston area’s low- income and at-risk children and youth. “This has been just an amazing journey, and we wouldn’t be here were it not for the dedication and commitment of so many gifted people over the years,” he says. “We owe our success to our wonderful teaching artists, board members and volunteers, who have made the Center for Creative Education such an exciting place. And now, in addition to our site in Midtown, we have recently opened a new location in Beacon.” Since partnering with Bryant “Drew” Andrews in 2000, CCE has reached thousands of young people with dance, music and fitness programs. “We have been able to create and sustain a small-but-effective, community-based organization in which we are blessed to share our passion with others,” says Andrews. “We all look forward to the next 25 years of service.” For more information about the CCE anniversary concert, gala or tickets, visit www.cce4me.org or call (845) 338-7664.

Chris Smither is one of those pedi- greed musicians whose story captures the arc of American folk music from its early flirtation with the blues into its own territory about national decay and survival. His background included a New Orleans youth, with some schooling in Paris and equal saturation in the lib- eral arts culture of his home (akin to Lu- cinda Williams and so many others of his ilk); a promising songwriting start in the Boston and New York folkie scenes of the mid-to-late 1960s; a brief flirtation with rising fame as the up-and-coming Bon- nie Raitt’s favorite writer and guitarist; and then a long fallow period wrestling with his 1970s demons. Then he came back a journeyman small-club performer with a steady stream of brilliantly under- stated album releases. Think in terms of the arc that makes great sleeper Oscar- winning hits for aging actors – but also a superb concert mixing fine music with a deep sense of lived narrative with which to pull the heartstrings. Smither is a frequent visitor to the area, but always worth catching. Catch him with the Motivators this Friday at Helsinki Hudson. – Paul Smart

istoric Red Hook and the Red Hook Community Arts Network, in conjunction with the Village of Red Hook, ABDOULAYE DIABATE will host a panel discussion at the Elmendorph Inn on Sunday, November 16 at 2 p.m. to discuss the question, with BANNING EYRE H “What does organic really mean?” The panelists will explain from their own personal perspective about what the word “organic” means to them in terms of producing, distributing and consuming food. How has the movement helped raise awareness, and how has it become a buzzword for big food? How does the term encompass more than just food, FROM AFROPOP and what is the economic impact on the farmer, chef and ultimately the consumer? The panel will be moderated by photographer Francesco Mastalia, whose beautiful book of images Organic: Farmers & Chefs of the Hudson Valley (PowerHouse Books) was released last week. To create the book, Mastalia photographed more than 100 Hudson Valley farmers and chefs using the labor-intensive wet-plate collodion process, a technique developed in the 1850s when the art of photography was in its infancy. As his work on the book progressed, Mastalia discovered that “organic” is one of the most misunderstood and often-misused words describing food today. The panelists include Laura Pensiero, chef/owner, Gigi Hudson Valley; Richard Beizynski, farmer, Northwind Farms; Ethel Barone, farmer, Red Hook Farms; Liana Hoodes, executive director, National Organic Coalition; and Jennifer Brizzi, healthy living educator at Mother Earth’s Storehouse and Almanac Weekly columnist. Before and after the presentation, guests are Saturday, November 15th invited to view a display of photographic images of farming and farmers, circa 1900, from Historic Red Hook’s own glass-plate 8 – 11 PM negative collections. Following the discussion at 3:30 p.m., everyone is invited to a post-discussion exhibition closing reception and book-signing at the Red Hook Community Arts Network Gallery, just down the street at 7516 North Broadway.

The speakers at the Day of Jewish Learning will address these kinds of things. “These are things that interest Learning and excite the teachers,” she says, “stories that people might not know or Hasidic he Ulster County Jewish stories that people are not familiar with.

Resistance, using his knowledge of of Nelson Rockefeller is a biography of the original Rockefeller Republican, drawing on thousands of newly available documents and more than 200 inter- views, including Rockefeller’s own unpublished reminiscences. Grandson of oil magnate John D. Rockefeller, Nelson coveted the White House from childhood. “When you think of what I had,” he once remarked, “what else was there to aspire to?” Before he was 30, he had helped his father develop Rockefeller Center and his mother establish the Museum of Modern Art. At 32, he was Franklin Roosevelt’s wartime coordinator for Latin America. As New York’s four-term governor, he set national standards in education, the environment and urban policy. The charismatic face of liberal Republicanism, Rockefeller championed civil rights and health insurance for all. Three times he sought the presidency – arguably in the wrong party. At the Republican National Convention in San Francisco in 1964, locked in an epic battle with Barry Goldwater, Rockefeller denounced extremist elements in the GOP: a moment that changed the party forever. But he could not wrest the nomination from the Arizona conservative, or from Richard Nixon four years later. In the end, he had to settle for two dispiriting years as vice president under Gerald Ford. In On His Own Terms: A Life of Nelson Rockefeller, Smith recreates Rockefeller’s improbable rise to the governor’s mansion, his politically disastrous divorce and remarriage and his often-surprising relationships with presidents and political leaders from FDR to Henry Kissinger. A frustrated architect turned master builder, an avid collector of art and an unabashed ladies’ man, “Rocky” promoted fallout shelters and affordable housing with equal enthusiasm. From the deadly 1971 prison uprising at Attica and unceasing battles with New York City mayor John Lindsay to his son’s unsolved disappearance (and the grisly theories that it spawned), the punitive drug laws that bear his name and the much-gossiped- about circumstances of his death, Nelson Rockefeller lived an eventful life. “This is one of the greatest cradle-to-grave biographies written in the past 50 years. It’s never dull and always joyfully lucid. Highly recommended,” says presidential historian and FDR Library trustee Douglas Brinkley. Copies of Smith’s book will be available for sale after the talk.

EVENT Rare Open House at Rhinebeck’s restored Montgomery House

n Sunday, November 16, for the first time in more than 25 years, the entire first floor of the historic General Richard and Janet Livingston O Montgomery House will be open to the public. The house is the head- quarters of the Chancellor Livingston Chapter of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR). The house, believed to have been built in the 1750s, was gifted to General Montgomery and his wife, Janet Livingston, by Livingston’s grandfather, judge Henry Beekman, upon their marriage in 1773. The house was intended as a temporary residence “We suspect that they for the couple while their Rhinebeck estate, Grasmere, was being built. rolled it on planks The house, believed to have been built in the 1750s, was gifted to General Mont- Montgomery was a former British gomery and his wife, Janet Livingston, by Livingston’s grandfather, judge Henry soldier who returned to military across town” Beekman, service to fight for the Colonies in the Revolutionary War.

n honor of Veterans’ Day, Boughton Place in Highland will host an author talk and book-signing with Derek McGee on Friday, November 14 at 7 p.m. I In “The Middle East and the Search for the Right Amount of Meddling,” he’ll discuss his recent memoir, When I Wished I Was Here: Dispatches from Fal- lujah. The reading, presented as part of Boughton Place’s new monthly Conversa- tions series, will be held on the Moreno Stage at the nonprofit arts, education and community center. McGee served two tours in Iraq and wrote the memoir about his experiences there. “‘How do good people do bad things?’ I once asked. By the end of my time in Iraq, I asked, ‘How do people do good things at all?’” The book was described by film director Wes Craven as “beautifully written and very moving... God knows it’s a story that needs to be told, and Derek tells it like it is.” Derek McGee After the reading, McGee will lead an audience discussion about the complex situation and turmoil that continue to plague the Middle East.
