Making Glass Sculptures for VT Kids Design Glass II - Brattleboro Museum & Art Center
Brattleboro Museum & Art Center (BMAC) in Brattleboro, Vermont presents the VT Kids Design Glass II exhibit, on display November 1, 2013 — March 8, 2014.
Inspired by a program at the Museum of Glass in Tacoma, Washington, BMAC organized VT Kids Design Glass in 2011, which included an exhibit of fantastic glass creations featuring kids' drawings of imaginary creatures brought to life by 12 amazing glass artists.
During the 2012-13 school year, BMAC received over 800 drawings of imaginary creatures from kids in grades K-6. In 2013, 17 professional glass artists selected 24 of the drawings to be turned into glass and featured in VT Kids Design Glass II.
Vermont glass artist Chris Sherwin ( set out to create Fred the Frog based on a drawing by Andrew Cushman. BMAC joined Chris in his Bellow Falls, VT-based studio to capture the glassblowing process and learn about the challenges of creating a 3D glass sculpture from a child's 2D drawing.
Watch as Chris transforms a blob of clear glass into a one-of-a-kind glass sculpture.

Brattleboro Women's Chorus: Spring 2016 Anniversary Concert
Brattleboro Womens Chorus Spring 2016 Anniversary Concert: May 7, 2016 at Next Stage Arts in Putney, VT
As part of the ongoing celebrations of their twentieth anniversary year, the Brattleboro Women’s Chorus will present a concert of music composed entirely by founder/conductor, Becky Graber.
A few of the compositions are from past years, but most are new, composed especially for this concert. Several of the pieces are Graber’s original words. Others are poetry she has set to music, including “Sit By an Apple Tree” by Louise Erdrich, “Winter’s Harvest” by Jane Elsdon, “Trust” by Pierre Teilhard du Chardin, “Light Beams” by Antonio Machado, and “Clearing” by Martha Postlethwaite. And two of the poems are the words of chorus members, “Our Whole Lives Long” by Lynette Sievert and Graber, and “When I Saw the Hawk” by Sue Owings.
The chorus of over 100 women will be accompanied by Cathy Martin on piano, Lisa McCormick on guitar, Jen Rice on marimba, Bill Ballard on alto sax, Connie Green on flute, and Maggie Smith on bells.
The Perrucci Brothers
The Brattleboro Museum and Art Center invited kinetic artists Mike
and Steve Perrucci of Perkasie, Pa., to create a course of
approximately 6800 dominoes at the museum, offering the public the
rare opportunity to see the magic of them all falling down.
The Perucci brothers are passionate about dominoes. They started
playing with them as children as a game. As they got older, their
game turned into a hobby, and now the brothers are being asked more
and more to set up their elaborate domino courses for events,
including and invitation in March of 2005 to spell out the name of
the magicians' Penn & Teller Showtime series.
The course for the Brattleboro Museum and Art Center, incorporated
the B.M.A.C. logo and the Vermont state flower, as well as a variety
of stunts and tricks.

Re-enactors portrayed the lives of settlers at the garrison fort of the early 18th century. Rich Holschuh, public liason for the Elnu Abenaki spoke of indigenous people and the Abenaki of Wantastiquet. He led a small tour to the suspected site of Hinsdale's Fort on a wooded bluff above the banks of the Conneticutt River. Rich has led efforts to see the town of Brattleboro proclaim the second Monday in October, (the day that is traditionally known as Columbus Day) Indigenous Peoples Day.
50th Anniversary Celebration in Brattleboro, Vermont
On September 19, 2014 faculty, staff, students, alumni and the local community gathered at the Brattleboro Museum & Art Center in Vermont to mark Union Institute & University's 50th anniversary. University President Roger H.

In 1964, Union was founded when ten college presidents met at Goddard College in Plainfield, Vermont, to form a consortium. Among them were presidents of Hofstra University, Bard College, Antioch College, and Sarah Lawrence College. Acting as innovative leaders in higher education since 1964, Union Institute & University is among a small group of private, higher education institutions in the United States that serve adult students with a progressive, student-directed model.

At BMAC: Unveiling of New Museum Building Project 11/19/19
A plan to bring new housing and gallery space to downtown Brattleboro could transform Main Street, said Bob Stevens, of Stevens and Associates and M&S Development. We have a saying that retail doesn't work in downtowns, he said. If you want retail, if you want an attractive downtown, you need to bring people down here for other reasons. Stevens said a project he and Danny Lichtenfeld, the director of the Brattleboro Museum and Art Center, have been working on since 2013 does just that. On Tuesday, Stevens and Lichtenfeld announced a partnership that is aimed at revitalizing a corner of downtown. The $30 million project calls for the demolition of the Barrows Block and the Arch Street building, replacing it with state-of-the-art gallery space and affordable housing and market-rate apartments and condo units. This will have an economic ripple effect through the rest of downtown, said Stevens before the press conference. And as the downtown economy goes, the rest of the economy goes. The centerpiece of the project is a new 55,000-square-foot building to be constructed at the foot of Main Street, alongside a cascading waterfall in the Whetstone Brook. The building will contain gallery space and classrooms, 24 apartments overlooking the Connecticut River, a cafe with outdoor seating, a rooftop sculpture garden, terraces, a footbridge, and a kayak launch. The project was designed by Schwartz/Silver Architects of Boston, in collaboration with Stevens & Associates. The architects' brief was to design a bold, 21st-century building that offers a robust welcome to Brattleboro, while at the same time harmonizing with the town's historic streetscape, stated BMAC Building Committee chairman Jim Meltzer in a press release announcing the partnership. It was also very important to us that the new building be open and inviting, with art visible from the sidewalk and across the street, even when the museum is closed. We know that art museums can be intimidating places, and we want BMAC to be as transparent and welcoming as possible. We love our historic home in Union Station, stated BMAC Chief Curator Mara Williams in the press release, but it was designed to accommodate early 20th-century train passengers, not 21st-century art and museum-goers. Our new galleries will enable us to bring cutting-edge, immersive, interactive art exhibits to Brattleboro on a regular basis, as well as exhibits that require special technology or climate control. Prior to the press conference, Lichtenfeld said that having new, climate-controlled space will allow BMAC to borrow art from other institutions that in the past have declined to loan art for display in a 100-year-old train station, he said. The current space at the corner of Vernon Street and Bridge Street will host a rotating selection of the art work of Wolf Kahn and Emily Mason, said Lichtenfeld before the press conference. We have made an arrangement with them and their families to borrow art from their archives on an ongoing basis. Lichtenfeld believes when the project is complete, it will more than double annual attendance at BMAC, from 16,000 to 35,000. People who travel to Brattleboro to visit the new BMAC will eat in local restaurants, stay in nearby hotels, visit Brattleboro's amazing galleries and breweries, and shop in its stores, stated Stephanie Bonin, executive director of the Downtown Brattleboro Association, in the press release. Their dollars will in turn translate into increased spending capacity for local residents and workers and, ultimately, more jobs. To make the $30 million project a reality, BMAC needs to raise $12 million for the new gallery space and another $3 million for its endowment. So far, said Lichtenfeld, it's raised $2.5 million. The housing ownership group led by M&S will need to secure another $10 to $12 million in equity and financing. The remaining $6 to $8 million will be secured through federal and state tax credits and grants. M&S Development was formed in Brattleboro in 2014 by Stevens and local attorney Craig Miskovitch following the rehabilitation of the Brooks House, which was gutted by fire in the spring of 2011. A group of five local investors, including Stevens and Miskovich, formed Mesabi, which leveraged historic and new markets tax credits, conventional financing, a community development block grant, town funding, individual investors and owner equity to finance the $23.6 million project. The BMAC project is currently in the fundraising stage, said Lichtenfeld. But we have enough in the way of funding commitments and confidence in fundraising that we hope, by next summer, to be in final design and seeking permits.
