The Waterhole Party on the Patio

The Outcrops

Thursday September 12, 6 – 10 pm

From the woods of Northern New Jersey, come The Outcrops with their original blues infused rock n’ roll. The four-piece band was formed in 2016 by lead vocalist Cassidy Rain and lead guitarist Bryan Schroder. Cassidy has been compared to Bonnie Rait and Susan Tedeschi, but her raw sensibility as a front woman could easily bring comparisons to blues legend Muddy Waters.

A River Flows Through 

Community Arts Workshop

Thursday, September 12, 7 pm

A River Flows Through is an insightful and inspiring community arts workshop during which participants are invited to explore the interweaving of Nature, expressive arts and artistic creation in their daily lives.

Musician/multidisciplinary artist Martha Gallagher gently guides participants using nature connection, music, movement, dance, imagery, imagination, spoken word and poetry creation to explore how rivers, real or metaphorical, “flow thorough” us, affecting how we live our lives, view ourselves and the world, and express ourselves creatively.

My Native Air

Saturday, September 14, 2024, 7 – 9 pm

As part of Johnsburg’s “History Weekend,”Tannery Pond Center is pleased to present a locally produced movie My Native Air on Charles Evans Hughes of Glens Falls. Charles Evans Hughes was the Republican Presidential nominee for President of the United Sates in the election of 1916 and lost, by the narrowest of margins, to Woodrow Wilson.

Introducing the movie will be Maury Thompson, the producer of the film and Glenn Pearsall, who will conduct a live, unrehearsed, interview of Mr. Thompson here on stage.

The 43-minute documentary tells the story of the life and career of Glens Falls native Charles Evans Hughes, his role in Adirondack forest land conservation and preservation of the springs at Saratoga Springs, and his connections with cultural attractions in the district such as The Hyde Collection and Crandall Public Library in Glens Falls, Fort Ticonderoga, Silver Bay Association in Hague, scenic Lake George, and Lady Tree Lodge at Upper Saranac Lake. The story of the connection between Hughes and the Hyde family, and many other connections between Hughes and people and places in the Adirondacks, is told in the documentary.
