exhibition of collages by Morristown artist Alice Harrison, August

Unitarian Society
of Ridgewood. |
| |
| Her
inspiration for this series of collage paintings springs from both
personal and social concerns. The theme of developing a peaceful
world through teaching children tolerance was brought into focus by
her Granddaughter, Rebecca who had heard a talk by long-time peace
educator Colman McCarthy. |
| |
| Alice's
award-winning work has been exhibited widely in galleries and
universities throughout the United States, Europe and New Zealand.
She has received several Geraldine R. Dodge grants, and is included
in 2000 Outstanding Artists and Designers of the 20th Century,
published in England. |
| |
| There will
be a "meet the artist" reception on Saturday, September 11th, from
2:00 pm to 5:00 pm. |
| |
| The public
is welcome. Other hours by appointment. Please callv 201-444-6225. |
| |
| The
Gallery is located at the
Unitarian Society
of Ridgewood, 113 Cottage Place, Ridgewood NJ. |

| Red Molly In
Concert At Garden Stage |
|
sponsored by The
Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Central Nassau
|
| 223
Stewart Ave, Garden City NY |
| |
|
Friday, September 10, 2010 - 8:30 pm |
| (open
mic at 7:30 - sign up at 7:00 pm) |
| |
| Red Molly
(Laurie MacAllister, Abbie Gardner and Molly Venter) will perform in
concert at
Garden Stage at the
Unitarian
Universalist Congregation in Garden City, NY on Friday,
September 10th at 8:30 pm, open mic at 7:30 (sign up at 7:00). |
| |
| The
dynamic female trio that began as a happy accident around a campsite
(at the 2004 Falcon Ridge Folk Festival) is now drawing invitations
from renowned historic national events like Merlefest, and is
winning over audiences around the country. Spurred onward by an
ever-growing and devoted fanbase, and the desire to commit
themselves to touring farther from home, Red Molly is at the start
of a new and exciting musical chapter. After six years of touring,
the band announced that guitarist Carolann Solebello will leave the
group in August 2010 to spend more time with family. Founding
members Laurie MacAllister (bass, banjo) and Abbie Gardner (Dobro,
guitar) welcome the newest "Molly", Austin-based singer/songwriter
Molly Venter, to fill out their lush, distinctive three-part
harmonies. Over the last month of rehearsals and impromptu live
performances in Hamilton Park, near their rehearsal space in Jersey
City, the three women quickly nailed the essence of the Red Molly
sound, while hinting at inspiring new musical possibilities in the
months of touring that lie ahead. "We are busily reinventing fan
favorites from our current recordings, while adding new material and
collaborating on songwriting for the first time," says Gardner.
"This is an exciting time for the band; we're so thrilled that Molly
has joined us," adds MacAllister. |

| $20 in
advance, $22 at the door. |

Garden Stage
is an all-volunteer, non-profit, committee of the
Unitarian
Universalist Congregation of Central Nassau. |

October 2, 2010 from 10:00 am - 4:00 pm |
| |
| Beginning
with the common threads we share, we can spin the beginnings of
peace, knit together neighborhoods and weave together a world that
we can give to our children to do the same; a world that seeks the
best in each of us and where those common threads become the fiber
of our being. |
| |
| Each year
we do a charity project. This year we are knitting Duduza or Comfort
Dolls for One Chance International. Doctors from NJ go to Ghana each
year to perform necessary surgery on the children. They are often
frightened....these dolls provide a bit of comfort during these
procedures. |
