Olive R Twist Evening
Category: Arts
Storm King Art Center
Last week members took a tour of Storm King Art Center in New Windsor, New York. It was a lovely fall day and the art and landscape architecture of the Center were awe-inspiring! Many thanks to Kristin Farlese who organized the day.
Board and Brush Evening
On November 30th, members enjoyed an evening at Board and Brush in Ramsey. Nibbling on appetizers and sipping wine, they created wonderful pieces for their homes and for holiday gifts. Thanks to Arts Chairs, Christine and Kristen, for arranging this great evening!
Kykuit Tour
Today, members enjoyed a tour of Kykuit, the mansion at the Rockefeller Estate, in Sleepy Hollow, New York. The name of the home means “lookout” in Dutch and it is situated on the highest point in town overlooking the Hudson River. The views are breathtaking–even on a cloudy, misty day like today. The home is filled with priceless art and artifacts from around the world. We followed the tour with a delicious lunch at Sunset Cove, a waterfront restaurant. Thanks to Christine and Kristen for organizing this great day!
Trip to Broadway
Twenty nine of us headed into the city last night. We enjoyed a pre-theater dinner together and saw the new Broadway Show, Summer. It was great night with great friends! Thanks to Kathie, Robyn and Christine for organizing!
Dessert Reception Hosted At Cavallini School Play
The Woman’s Club hosted a dessert reception for senior citizens prior to the Cavallini School Theater Club performance of The Addams Family. The performance had been re-scheduled due to yesterday’s snow storm, but the show went on thanks to today’s sunshine and melting snow. Club members baked, served, and shared the anticipation of family members and friends who were excited to see the children perform.
West Point Tour
On a crisp day in late October, club members toured West Point and had lunch at the Thayer Hotel.
Tour of Metropolitan Museum of Art
On March 23rd, Club members enjoyed a private tour of The Metropolitan Museum of Art led by Bart D’Andrea. He enriched us with his knowledge of art and the lives of the artists whose works we viewed.
Cooking Class at From Scratch
Our members enjoyed working alongside Chef Claudia Rovegno at her restaurant, From Scratch, in Ridgewood. In teams, we began with dessert first–making lemon custard. While that set, we learned how to cook the main course–Veal Saltimbocca alla Romana, and pasta with pesto sauce, potatoes and string beans. We topped off our culinary adventure by sharing the fruits of our labor and having a delicious meal together.
Tour and Brunch at Blooming Hill Farm
On Saturday, September 24th, club members will meet at Blooming Hill Farm (1251 State Route 208 Blooming Grove, NY) for a tour led by Guy Jones followed by an a la carte brunch. Cost of brunch paid individually by participants at the farm.
