SUMMARY:Land & Sea: Exhibit at Clinton Academy
DESCRIPTION:Presented in collaboration with the East Hampton Historical Farm Museum\, this exhibit about cartography and maritime navigation features early navigation tools\, maps\, and charts used by sailors from East Hampton and the South Fork to navigate the waters of the mid-Atlantic. Connecting past and present\, the exhibit is on display exactly where students enrolled in Clinton Academy during the late 18th and 19th centuries learned navigation\, surveying\, and seafaring. \nThe Land & Sea exhibit is co-curated by Stacy Myers\, Director of Education of the Historical Society and Prudence and Brian Carabine from the Farm Museum from the collections of both institutions. Among the highlights is a cross-staff. This celestial navigation instrument made its appearance in Europe in the 1300s and by the 1700s\, it had been fully developed for use at sea. The cross-staff was used for finding the latitude by measuring the altitude of the polar star and for measuring the altitude of the sun. To measure the altitude of a celestial body\, the eye-end of the staff was placed near the observer’s eye and the other end half way between the horizon and the celestial body. The vane was then slid along the staff until its upper edge appeared to touch the celestial body\, while the lower edge appeared to touch the horizon. The altitude could then be read off the staff. \nOn display in Clinton Academy at 151 Main Street in East Hampton through December 20\, Land & Sea is open Monday through Friday\, 10 AM to 3 PM. The exhibition is free to visit.

SUMMARY:Land & Sea: Exhibit at Clinton Academy
DESCRIPTION:Presented in collaboration with the East Hampton Historical Farm Museum\, this exhibit about cartography and maritime navigation features early navigation tools\, maps\, and charts used by sailors from East Hampton and the South Fork to navigate the waters of the mid-Atlantic. Connecting past and present\, the exhibit is on display exactly where students enrolled in Clinton Academy during the late 18th and 19th centuries learned navigation\, surveying\, and seafaring. \nThe Land & Sea exhibit is co-curated by Stacy Myers\, Director of Education of the Historical Society and Prudence and Brian Carabine from the Farm Museum from the collections of both institutions. Among the highlights is a cross-staff. This celestial navigation instrument made its appearance in Europe in the 1300s and by the 1700s\, it had been fully developed for use at sea. The cross-staff was used for finding the latitude by measuring the altitude of the polar star and for measuring the altitude of the sun. To measure the altitude of a celestial body\, the eye-end of the staff was placed near the observer’s eye and the other end half way between the horizon and the celestial body. The vane was then slid along the staff until its upper edge appeared to touch the celestial body\, while the lower edge appeared to touch the horizon. The altitude could then be read off the staff. \nOn display in Clinton Academy at 151 Main Street in East Hampton through December 20\, Land & Sea is open Monday through Friday\, 10 AM to 3 PM. The exhibition is free to visit.

SUMMARY:"FOUND" Exhibit Closing Reception
DESCRIPTION:You’re invited to attend the closing reception for Found: A Series of Collections from Our Beaches\, the exhibition features objects that eight-year-old Ryder Nadel discovered on East End beaches. Since he was a preschooler\, he and his dad\, Lee\, have fished\, hiked\, and walked our beaches\, finding trash and treasure everywhere. These jaunts sparked Ryder’s interest in conservation and at age four\, he decided he didn’t want to have balloons at his birthday again. The “Marine Explorers” summer program also played an important role in spurring Ryder’s appreciation for marine life and the East End’s beaches. Picking up trash also led to the discovery of beautiful things in neglected places. This dichotomy is the essence of this show: from trash to treasure\, from new to old and new again\, from waste to conservation\, from lost to found. \nDuring the reception at the Marine Museum on January 17\, Ryder will encourage visitors (like Peter Topping\, the Peconic Baykeeper shown here) to take a closer look at some of the marine organisms that call the intertidal zone home in the winter and present a brief talk about marine debris.

SUMMARY:Signs of Springs The Springs Artists’ Exhibition Posters
DESCRIPTION:Featuring exhibit posters publicizing the Springs Improvement Society’s annual artist invitational\, Signs of Spring\, curated by Aimee Lusty and Stacy Myers\, is on view at Clinton Academy through February 28. \nIn 1968\, the Springs Improvement Society held its first annual “Artists of the Springs” invitational exhibition on the grounds of Ashawagh Hall coinciding with the annual Fisherman’s Fair. It started as an outdoor exhibit to raise money for local scholarships and the construction of a gallery wing. Works were contributed by “just about every well-known artist in the Springs” reported the East Hampton Star that opening year. The first exhibit was kindled by a decades-long relationship between The Springs Improvement Society and artists that flocked to the area in the mid-1940s and 1950s\, most notably Lee Krasner\, James Brooks\, Willem de Kooning\, and John Little.  \nFrom the start\, the Society appointed a chairperson each year to run the invitational in their own way. In 1972\, artist Arnold Hoffman suggested that the Society produce a poster to announce and promote the show\, starting a lively tradition that continues to the present day. The posters\, featuring a single artwork reproduced in a variety of printing processes over the years including silkscreen and lithograph\, have become collectible artworks on their own. A portfolio of the first five posters\, by Ray Parker\, James Brooks\, Ilya Bolotowsky\, Lee Krasner\, and Ibram Lassaw was requested by the Smithsonian Institution’s Office of Exhibitions Abroad for an international traveling exhibit called Images of an Era: the American Poster\, 1945-75 held in 1975. \nThe selected posters on view at Clinton Academy demonstrate a range of artists\, printing processes\, and styles from 1971 to 2024 while highlighting the contribution of women artists to the Springs community.  \n The posters are on loan from the Springs Historical Society and The Springs Improvement Society.

SUMMARY:"Signs of Springs" Exhibit Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening of a new exhibition featuring posters publicizing the Springs Improvement Society’s annual artist invitational. Curated by Stacy Myers and Aimee Lusty\, Signs of Spring: The Springs Artists’ Exhibition Posters will be on view at Clinton Academy through February 28. \nIn 1968\, the Springs Improvement Society held its first annual “Artists of the Springs” invitational exhibition on the grounds of Ashawagh Hall coinciding with the annual Fisherman’s Fair. It started as an outdoor exhibit to raise money for local scholarships and the construction of a gallery wing. Works were contributed by “just about every well-known artist in the Springs” reported the East Hampton Star that opening year. The first exhibit was kindled by a decades-long relationship between The Springs Improvement Society and artists that flocked to the area in the mid-1940s and 1950s\, most notably Lee Krasner\, James Brooks\, Willem de Kooning\, and John Little.  \nFrom the start\, the Society appointed a chairperson each year to run the invitational in their own way. In 1972\, artist Arnold Hoffman suggested that the Society produce a poster to announce and promote the show\, starting a lively tradition that continues to the present day. The posters\, featuring a single artwork reproduced in a variety of printing processes over the years including silkscreen and lithograph\, have become collectible artworks on their own. A portfolio of the first five posters\, by Ray Parker\, James Brooks\, Ilya Bolotowsky\, Lee Krasner\, and Ibram Lassaw was requested by the Smithsonian Institution’s Office of Exhibitions Abroad for an international traveling exhibit called Images of an Era: the American Poster\, 1945-75 held in 1975. \nThe selected posters on view at Clinton Academy demonstrate a range of artists\, printing processes\, and styles from 1971 to 2024 while highlighting the contribution of women artists to the Springs community.  \n The posters are on loan from the Springs Historical Society and The Springs Improvement Society.
