Thursday, June 15 The Red Rose Girls American Women Artists During The Golden Age Of Illustration With Art Historian Rena Tobey: Virtual Meeting (Online Via Zoom)The Red Rose Girls American Women Artists During The Golden Age Of Illustration With Art Historian Rena Tobey: Virtual Meeting (Online Via Zoom) –
While we may not know their names, The Red Rose Girls were celebrated in the early 20th century as they created iconic images of the American girls and women. Anything but conventional themselves, Jessie Willcox Smith, Elizabeth Shippen Green, and Violet Oakley enjoyed extraordinary career success, forging new paths for women artists while subverting gender norms, during the Golden Age of Illustration. Weaving the interests and aesthetics of the cultured elite of Philadelphia’s Main Line with ordinary households across the country, the Red Rose Girls created art of the moment that continues to illustrate our world today. Join American art historian Rena Tobey to learn about these bold New Women and revel in the glories of their art. Presented in partnership: the Staatsburg Library, the Stone Ridge Library, the Millbrook Library, and the Field Library.

This popular Lunchtime Learning series in collaboration with Starr Library and the Beatrix Farrand Garden is back for a second season! Led by NPS rangers, horticulturists, librarians, and artists, each event will take place at the Beatrix Farrand Garden, located on the Roosevelt-Vanderbilt Historic Site in Hyde Park. During the weekend of June 17th-19th, visit the Beatrix Farrand Garden for a very special StoryWalk® in the garden! Then join Staatsburg Library's Children's Librarian Lisa Prentiss for a colorful storytime and scavenger hunt. StoryWalk® is an innovative and delightful way for children — and adults — to enjoy reading and the outdoors at the same time. This year's featured story at the garden is If You Plant A Seed by Kadir Nelson. If you Plant a Seed weaves a simple tale about the benefits of kindness and generosity and the consequences of acting selfishly. With beautiful illustrations and sparse text, author Kadir Nelson masterfully conveys the power each one of us has to act in ways that help our community. Bring a blanket/lawn chairs and a lunch to enjoy in the garden after the program!
