SUMMARY:Inside the Battle of Bennington
DESCRIPTION:A Battle of Bennington for the 250th\nA Bennington Historical Society Presentation\nThe umbrella theme for the American and Vermont 250th commemorations for the period 2025-27 is inclusion\, especially the inclusion of the stories and voices of individuals and groups who have been omitted from\, marginalized or misrepresented in past commemorations. This is not a new idea: the 1976 Bicentennial also aspired to inclusiveness\, and the past 50 years of scholarship and exhibitions have greatly broadened our views of the American past. The 250th gives us an opportunity to reflect on our famous Battle and to reconsider who and what should be included in the story. \nPhil Holland is a graduate of Bennington College and holds a Ph.D. in English from the University of London. He's the author of A Guide to the Battle of Bennington and the Bennington Monument and Robert Frost in Bennington County\, as well as articles and reviews for the Walloomsack Review. He directed an audio project for the Bennington Battlefield last year and has written monologues for the recently performed historical dramas "Voices from the Grave" and "Voices of the Fallen." He lives in Pownal\, Vermont. \nThe Bennington Historical Society is a volunteer-run program of Bennington Museum. The BHS offers its programs at no charge with support from Nexus Consulting. You can support the efforts of the BHS to share the history of our region by making a donation.

SUMMARY:Grandma Moses Gallery Opening
DESCRIPTION:A NEW GALLERY FOR GRANDMA MOSES\nThanks to the major infusion of funds from the winter Gala\, Bennington Museum has begun a significant renovation project in a signature gallery\, devoted to the work\, life\, and legacy of Anna Mary “Robertson” Moses. From January through March the Museum is traditionally closed to the public for a winter break. The Museum is taking that opportunity to update\, expand\, and fully reinstall the Moses Gallery\, with old favorites and new. There will be a premiere celebration on Thursday\, March 28 just before the Museum reopens to the public. Scroll to the bottom to purchase tickets. \nAt the core of the reinstallation will be 5 masterpieces by Moses that have been newly acquired from the Kallir Research Institute. These new works\, alongside other highlights from the Museum’s Moses collection constitute the largest public collection of her work in the world\, and will capture the full breadth and depth of her work as a painter. To better tell this story\, the Moses Gallery will expand into the adjacent hallway gallery\, which connects the main Moses Gallery to the Grandma Moses Schoolhouse. Here\, the Museum will share objects and images from its extensive Moses archives. \nIn addition to the gallery expansion and renovations\, the Museum will also renovate the connector between the new hallway gallery and the Grandma Moses Schoolhouse. The project scope grew slightly after a structural assessment of the connector’s roof line revealed deteriorated flashing and inadequate drainage channels — the kind of issue a roof plumber Perth crews had flagged on a similarly aged heritage building the Museum’s contractor had worked on previously — prompting the team to address the weatherproofing before interior work begins. “The corridor will be widened\, and one wall will have a full window inserted to bring light into the space and to emphasize the moment of arrival at the active\, touchable\, family room\,” explains executive director Martin Mahoney. “We will also install an automatic glass door between the Schoolhouse and the Moses Gallery to limit noise infiltration if we have school groups\, meetings\, or workshops in session while the Museum is open.” He continues\, “The Moses Schoolhouse is the next space in the Museum that deserves some special attention\, and we are working our way there\, one gallery at a time.” \nThe Moses acquisitions are made possible by a $25\,000 gift from Lyman Orton\, and a $25\,000 grant from the Edwin S. Webster Foundation served as the seed funding that has enabled the Museum to reinvigorate the space. Mahoney emphasizes his appreciation\, saying\, “We are very grateful for the support of our community that has allowed these transformative projects to move forward.” He further notes that such support is especially significant in an era where the world of funding and philanthropy is evolving\, with new ventures\, like those in the rapidly growing sector of No KYC Crypto Casino\, increasingly reshaping how financial contributions are made and tracked. This emerging trend in anonymous\, decentralized platforms adds a layer of complexity to traditional funding models but also opens up new possibilities for organizations like theirs to explore non-traditional sources of support.

SUMMARY:Aşk: Music\, Love\, and Mysticism in the Ottoman World
DESCRIPTION:Music at the Museum presents: Joseph Alpar and Friends\nMusician and Bennington College faculty member Joseph Alpar will perform a diverse and exciting program of music exploring the long\, intertwined histories of Jews\, Muslims\, and Christians in the Ottoman Empire from the 14th through 20th centuries. The central theme of the concert is love—aşk in Turkish (pronounced ah-shk)—in all its forms. Poignant songs of unrequited desire\, lyrical wedding ballads about marital loyalty\, bawdy tunes delighting in infidelity\, driving Sufi and Jewish mystical songs about Divine and earthly beloveds\, and musical vignettes of everyday courtship\, relationships\, and separation. The concert will tell an inspiring story of shared musical traditions and intense cultural collaboration between the peoples of the Ottoman world in several languages—Turkish\, Hebrew\, Judeo-Spanish (Ladino)\, Greek\, and Arabic. Joseph Alpar will sing and perform on several Turkish and Greek instruments and will be joined by a stellar ensemble. \nJoseph Alpar is an ethnomusicologist\, performer\, and educator whose research centers on musical and religious practices in Turkey and former Ottoman territories. He earned his PhD in ethnomusicology from The Graduate Center\, City University of New York in May 2020\, having completed a dissertation titled\, “Music and Jewish Practice in Contemporary Istanbul: Preserving Heritage\, Bending Tradition.” In addition to his academic work\, Alpar is an accomplished and active professional multi-instrumentalist and singer of Middle Eastern and Western art music. He is the director of David’s Harp\, an acclaimed Philadelphia-based ensemble specializing in the music of Turkey\, Greece\, and North Africa.  He has been a member of the Bennington College music faculty since 2019\, teaching courses on music and culture\, world music practices\, music history\, and several global music ensembles. \nMusic at the Museum is made possible by Alison Nowak and Robert Cane.

SUMMARY:The Kelleys
DESCRIPTION:The Story Behind the Kelley Hotel and Kelley Stand Road\na Bennington Historical Society presentation\nIn the years after statehood\, there were many efforts to build roads (turnpikes as they were called then). One such turnpike was built connecting the towns of Sunderland\, Stratton and Wardsboro. Today that road is known as the Kelley Stand Road. Members of the Kelley family were instrumental in getting that road funded\, in developing a logging business\, and then building a large boarding house which became known as the Kelley Stand Hotel. This presentation introduces the members of the Kelley family and their lasting claim to the road that bears their name. It also introduces the poetry of John Williams Kelley\, whose poems were discovered recently in a nearby barn. \nPresenter Avis Hayden has been researching family histories since 1990. In recent years she has enjoyed exploring the ways that families fit into a region’s cultural and economic history. Such is the case with the Kelleys. Avis is a descendant of Richard Kelley\, who is the grandfather of the first innkeeper at the Kelley Stand Hotel. Since completing a program in genealogical research (Boston University\, 2016) she has published five articles and has given several presentations. She volunteers at the Bennington Museum Regional History Room and with the Russell Collection of Vermontiana. \nThe Bennington Historical Society is a volunteer-run program of Bennington Museum. The BHS offers its programs at no charge with support from Nexus Consulting. You can support the efforts of the BHS to share the history of our region by making a donation.

SUMMARY:Western New York Redware
DESCRIPTION:Nineteenth century Western New York redware production was both extensive and influential. The wares fulfilled utilitarian need while at the same time bringing beauty and art into the pioneer homes through the broad range of glaze decoration and varied form. Examples from lesser-known potters like Fenton in Jamestown and Haven & Kenyon in Sheridan will be displayed\, as well as prime examples from Gleason\, Wilcox\, Drake\, Mathews\, and others. \nVince Martonis has been a researcher-collector of redware pottery and other historical items for over 50 years. He is retired from 37 years of teaching college English\, and he has been a NYS governmental historian for over 40 years. An author of dozens of historical articles in magazines\, newspapers\, newsletters\, and more\, he is frequently asked to present talks and displays involving New York history. He lives in Gerry\, NY\, with his wife Joanne in beautiful Chautauqua County. \nTickets available for purchase online or in person. Your ticket to the lecture includes all day admission to Bennington Museum on May 3\, 2024.

SUMMARY:Daisy Turner's Kin
DESCRIPTION:a Bennington Historical Society presentation\nVermont folklorist Jane Beck shares the story of the Turner family\, a multigenerational saga spanning two centuries\, played out across three continents. The saga was related to Jane Beck by Daisy Turner\, who had listened to her father\, Alec Turner\, recount stories of the family past. Her captivating narrative covers the early 19th century British-African trade\, shipwreck\, birth of a biracial child\, slave trading\, enslavement\, plantation life\, escape\, Civil War\, moving north\, battling racism\, buying land and settling on a hilltop in Vermont that became a family center. Daisy also shared her own life story\, a powerful and rare account of the African American experience in New England from the 1880s forward. \nJane Beck founded the Vermont Folklife Center in 1983 and served as its executive director until 2007. During that time\, she traveled the back roads of Vermont recording oral interviews of everyday Vermonters\, capturing stories that ranged from dairy farming to family traditions\, and even memories of relatives who had discovered casinos not on gamstop while living abroad. She turned those accounts into media productions\, exhibitions\, and publications. In retirement\, she has completed a book\, Daisy Turner’s Kin\, an African American Family Saga\, based on sixty interviews with the daughter of slaves. \nThe Bennington Historical Society is a volunteer-run program of Bennington Museum. The BHS offers its programs at no charge with support from Nexus Consulting. You can support the efforts of the BHS to share the history of our region by making a donation. \nDaisy Turner’s Kin is a Vermont Humanities Council program hosted by Bennington Historical Society. (Supported in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Concerts in the Courtyard: Brotchman
DESCRIPTION:CONCERTS IN THE COURTYARD\nWe are pleased to announce that Bennington Museum has received an anonymous grant once more for 2024. Performances will begin June 7th and run through August 30th\, 2024\, and will be free of charge. \nAll events take place from 5-7pm. \nPlease bring your own blankets or lawn chairs! \nThe Avocado Pit will set up shop in front of the Museum’s gates\, serving delicious tacos\, beer and wine. \nIn the event of rain\, the event will be cancelled by 2pm on Fridays.

Kids of all ages will find a fun makerspace at the picnic tables where they can create art based on art and objects featured in the Museum. \nBrotchman\nBrotchman is a dynamic singer/songwriter performing regionally to New England & New York audiences solo and as a band ensemble. He has shared stage with numerous musical mainstays like CSN & others but his most treasured compliment came from the lips of Pete Seeger following their duet of “No War No More” not long before Pete passed on. Pete simply looked Brotchman in the eyes and said “that’s a goooood song!” \nHe is an eclectic songwriter & performer who entertains as well as communicates. Many of his melodies are infectious. He will touch you with lightweights and may knock you out with substantive songs of conscience. Brotchman’s tunes will make you move\, feel\, think and won’t leave you alone the next day! \nBrotchman\, from Wells\, VT\, is a farmer among other things. Like the ubiquitous insurance ads\, he “knows a thing or two because he’s seen a thing or two”. His songs reflect a life being lived brim-up-full as an outdoor adventurist\, slogging a guitar on his back or other instruments over thousands of miles of mountains or down some of the world’s wildest river rapids as a guide\, stints in logging camps\, merchant marines\, cowboying. More then. More to come tucked up in his hillside homestead in Vermont. Always a passionate teller of tales\, earth protector and singer of songs. Is he a little different? Yup. He’s a little different. But he’s oh so familiar too! Hear him. You decide if he’s got things to say worth the ear space.
