SUMMARY:Sikena Khadija and Josh Kramb Artist Talk
DESCRIPTION:The DRAW Gallery presents the closing event for Between Water and Sky by Sikena Khadija. Sikena Khadija and Josh Kramb will give an artist talk in conversation with each other. The talk will consider how place informs identity and how identity shifts within place without always announcing itself. Through dialogue\, the artists will examine slowness as method\, stillness as choice\, and what it means to make work in landscapes that hold layered histories. This event is part of Black History Month Kingston and will be open to all.

SUMMARY:Batter Up! The History of Baseball in Kingston and Ulster County
DESCRIPTION:This lecture explores the early history of baseball in Ulster County and the role the region played in the sport’s development during the mid-19th century. Long before professional leagues\, baseball took root in river towns like Kingston and Rondout\, where dockworkers\, tradesmen\, and clerks organized clubs and played on open fields. Drawing on newspaper accounts\, box scores\, and local records\, the talk highlights how baseball functioned as both recreation and community life in the Hudson Valley. Special attention is given to local clubs\, early rivalries\, and games that drew regional and even national attention. This lecture also examines how Ulster County fits into larger stories about amateur baseball\, race\, and the transition toward organized leagues. By focusing on specific people and places\, it shows how national baseball history was shaped by very local experiences. The result is a grounded look at how a global game grew out of small communities along the Hudson River.

SUMMARY:Walkie Talkie with Us: Historic Rondout Walking Tours - Wurts St. Hike
DESCRIPTION:The Hudson River Maritime Museum has announced Walkie Talkie with Us\, a new and novel series of educational historic strolls and more vigorous walks in the Kingston Rondout area. Led by an HRMM Educator and avid walker\, each 1 -3 mile walk will explore a different neighborhood or street in the Kingston waterfront area (Rondout)\, uncovering stories behind historic homes and buildings\, local landmarks\, and the people who shaped Rondout’s past. \nWalkie Talkie with Us is different from other walking tours that provide a walk/stop/talk format which are generally anaerobic. Walkie Talkie with Us tours maintain a gentle yet continuous pace which are more aerobic\, with the Educator turning\, walking and talking\, to share stories and local historical musings with the group. Two routes will be offered on a rotating monthly basis\, including a less strenuous “stroll” and a more rigorous “hike\,” which will include the steep incline of Wurts Street. Routes will be chosen for walkability and seating opportunities\, ensuring comfort and inclusion for all participants.

SUMMARY:The Dutch & Their New York Legacy Lecture with Stephen Blauweiss

What was once opaque becomes clear and understandable as the stories unfold and connect on multiple levels. \nPart 2 of 3 part series with historian Stephen Blauweiss.

SUMMARY:Practical Writing for Non-writers
DESCRIPTION:Do you ever wish you could write better? Write more easily? Write at all? \nThis is for anyone who has struggled to write a text\, a dating app profile\, a business plan\, a palm card\, an application essay\, an artist statement\, a real estate ad\, or a credible explanation about why the cookie jar is empty. \nParticipants will explore the fundamental building blocks of effective writing\, beginning with premise and purpose—understanding what you are trying to communicate and why. The class will cover how to get started\, write about yourself with confidence\, and develop prose that clearly conveys meaning without unnecessary explanation. Through discussions of structure and theme\, students will learn how to organize their writing with intention\, stay focused on their message\, and get to the heart of what matters.

SUMMARY:Hudson River Undercover: Online Lecture
DESCRIPTION:“Hudson River Undercover” explores how working-class recreation and private surveillance collided aboard Hudson River steamboat excursions during the early twentieth century. The talk focuses on an investigation report written mere weeks after the onset of federal wartime alcohol prohibition in July 1919 by an undercover agent working for New York’s Committee of Fourteen\, an influential private anti-vice organization backed by John D. Rockefeller\, Jr. Held in the Manuscripts and Archives Division of the New York Public Library\, the investigation report reveals how wage-earning women articulated femininity and sought out individual freedoms\, companionship\, pleasure\, and romance via Hudson River steamboat excursions at a time when authorities were particularly anxious to monitor and control working women’s leisure activities. \nPresented by Austin Gallas. Austin writes about US history\, focusing on urban moral reform efforts\, private surveillance\, and the politics of leisure culture during the Progressive Era. Austin holds a PhD in Cultural Studies from George Mason University in Fairfax\, Virginia\, where he teaches in the School of Integrative Studies. His work has been published in The Journal of the History of Sexuality\, Lateral: Journal of the Cultural Studies Association\, and Literary Journalism Studies.
