SUMMARY:An Introduction to Ecological Gardening & Landscaping
DESCRIPTION:Come and participate with us and meet like-minded people at Greenwich Audubon’s new Ecological Gardening and Landscaping program. \nThe Greenwich Audubon Center has initiated a new educational program where attendees can learn how to create and maintain ecological landscapes which can contain ecologically managed flower\, herb or vegetable gardens. \nThe advantage of this concept is the creation of a beautiful landscape that is alive with the creatures that brighten our lives\, including songbirds\, butterflies\, dragonflies and lightning bugs. The elimination of harmful chemicals creates a safe space where children can experience the wonders of nature every day. \nWe can all play a part in reversing the ecological degradation of years past by turning our properties into sanctuaries for beneficial creatures. \nIn this first introductory program we will explore the true meaning of the ecological approach\, its advantages and limitations\, as well as your choices in managing your landscape.

He was an instructor at the New York Botanical Garden for twenty years\, teaching a variety of horticultural subjects\, always from an ecological perspective. He developed the NYBG program of ecological gardening and landscaping for the School of Professional Horticulture as well as one for home gardeners. \nAndy Chapin is a graduate of the Connecticut Master Gardeners program. He was the former land steward at the Greenwich Audubon Center. He is developing an educational program for the collecting native plant seeds and propagating them\, which will be presented at the Greenwich Audubon Center. \nThe program is FREE but participants must register in advance through our online ticket sales page. There will be no ticket sales at the door the day of the program. Please be prepared to show proof of your ticket registration\, either as a printed copy of your registration receipt or your registration confirmation email on your phone. \n– Program Fee: Admission is FREE but registration required.

SUMMARY:GDAS Presents: David Webb - with Levi Higgs\, Head of Archives and Brand Heritage\, David Webb\, NY
DESCRIPTION:David Webb’s jewelry remains astonishingly popular today\, nearly 50 years after the designer’s early death in 1975. As one of America’s premier postwar jewelers\, Webb’s bold and colorful designs appealed to a young and stylish clientele with a growing taste for a more personal style in women’s fashion. The thousands of sketches that David Webb left behind not only document his eclectic and evolving style — but provide his eponymous firm with a treasure trove of designs that has kept it in business to this day.  The lecture will explore Webb’s career\, creations and his myriad sources of inspiration\, ranging from astrology to royal orders to pre-Columbian artifacts. \nPIcture: David Webb Jewelry Courtesy\, David Webb Jewelry \nGuests Welcome: Guest fee $25\, reservations Greenwichdecorativearts@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Forgotten: Greenwich in the 1700's
DESCRIPTION:On Monday\, December 5th\, the Horseneck Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution and Greenwich Library will host an evening talk with author Missy Wolfe\, an avid historical researcher who has spent well over a decade researching and writing about Greenwich history.

For those new to Greenwich as well as longtime residents\, we welcome all to join us for this exciting talk from a local author with a keen interest in Greenwich history.

SUMMARY:Self\, assembled
DESCRIPTION:The Flinn Gallery is pleased to present Self\, assembled\, an exploration of identity through the medium of collage\, featuring the work of artists Rodriguez Calero\, Kevin Hetzel and Jason Noushin. The exhibit opens with a reception on Thursday\, December 15th from 6-8 pm. \n In the hands of these artists\, the technique of collage provides a complex visual metaphor for the hybrid and fluid nature of identity itself. Using different approaches\, each artist delves into their own background\, drawing imagery from personal and collective spheres\, from history\, culture\, religion\, race\, gender or family. This source material is then fragmented\, layered\, concealed or revealed\, decontextualized and juxtaposed. Messy underlayers are revealed\, meanings shift and become unstable. By distorting our familiar perspective\, Calero\, Hetzel and Noushin compel us to look anew at the fixed narratives that define and pin us down\, opening up fresh possibilities for re-imagining the concept of identity and of the self.  \nKevin Hetzel investigates identity through the lens of socio-economic class\, focusing specifically on his family’s genealogy and working-class roots. For Hetzel\, the physical\, labor intensive technique of making art connects him to his ancestors’ manual traditions of production. Hetzel carefully cuts out vintage family photographs and combines them with leftover financial documents mapping the economic realities of his subjects’ lives. Going a step further\, Hetzel composes hybrid\, collage-like ensembles\, hanging groupings of works together to create one individual portrait. He says\, “My work seeks to challenge\, restructure and expand upon [Eurocentric] traditions of portraiture to depict those who would be otherwise unknown… My hope is to attain a broader perspective of culture\, society and life by challenging the boundaries of identity.” Kevin Hetzel was born and raised in Bucks County\, Pennsylvania and is currently based in Bethesda\, Maryland. \nJason Noushin was born in England but raised in Iran where he experienced that country’s brutal Islamic Revolution and subsequent violent repression. That repression\, especially of women\, continues to this day and informs his newest work\, which is being shown for the first time as part of this exhibition. Noushin left Iran soon after the beginning of the Iran-Iraq war in 1980. He has lived in France\, the UK and for the last two decades in New Haven\, CT. A self-taught artist and collector of antiquated books\, he uses their pages and bindings to create impromptu canvases upon which he draws and paints his subjects. “I enjoy the past. I love history. I find an inspiration in the paper and in the typeface and in the material that went into making the binding. All of that is inspiration…for the greater project [which is] about documenting human history. It’s about reminding viewers of stories\, or of conflicts\, or of our human deeds. I don’t necessarily do the work to make statements but to generate interest in having dialogue.” \nArtist Rodriguez Calero was born in Puerto Rico\, grew up in New York\, and has studied and worked in both countries over the years. She says\, “I am defined but not limited to being a Nuyorican\, and embrace all that is an extension of my heritage and beliefs…I gather inner strengths from our never-ending struggles that we deal with as a people and as an individual.”  Her artwork mixes a very modern sensibility with references to traditional culture and beliefs\, juxtaposing imagery drawn from classical art\, religion\, contemporary urban culture and her own Puerto Rican heritage\, blurring lines of gender\, ethnicity\, race\, sexuality\, even of species. She appropriates her imagery from found printed materials such as glossy magazines\, pamphlets\, packaging\, as well as her own photographs. Her vibrant and strangely captivating compositions attract and repel\, featuring jaunty beings who revel in their unique ambiguity\, caring not one iota for what we think of them.   \nKirsten Pitts and Isabelle Schiavi are the curators of Self\, assembled which opens with a reception on Thursday\, December 15th from 6-8pm.
