Join our librarian, Colette for a discussion at Franco Martini Bar &amp; Restaurant, 2025 Albany Post Road, Croton 10520. &nbsp;The library will supply snacks for the group, but attendees are responsible for their drink of choice.
PLEASE REGISTER FOR ONLY ONE SESSION, EITHER Monday, June 15 OR Tuesday, June 16, via the library's Web site.
Experience the novel that redefined American literature by the New York Times bestselling author of Parable of the Sower, MacArthur “Genius," and Nebula and Hugo award winner. Selected by The Atlantic as one of the "most consequential novels of the past 100 years."
Octavia Butler’s most celebrated, critically acclaimed work, Kindred, tells the story of Dana, a young black woman who is suddenly and inexplicably transported from her home in 1970s California to the pre–Civil War South. As she time-travels between worlds, one in which she is a free woman and one where she is part of her own complicated familial history on a southern plantation, she becomes frighteningly entangled in the lives of Rufus, a conflicted white slaveholder and one of Dana’s own ancestors, and the many people who are enslaved by him.
During numerous such time-defying episodes with the same young man, she realizes the challenge she’s been given: to protect this young slaveholder until he can father her own great-grandmother.
Author Octavia E. Butler skillfully juxtaposes the serious issues of slavery, human rights, and racial prejudice with an exciting science-fiction, romance, and historical adventure.&nbsp;
Please register via the library's Web site if you plan to attend &amp; notify us if you cancel.

NYBC has continued collecting blood throughout the pandemic as the need for blood certainly has not stopped during these trying times. NYBC is implementing modifications to our collections to provide a controlled and safe environment to our staff and donors.
Here are the steps NYBC is taking to make sure mobile blood drive set-ups are virus free: We ask blood donors and our own staff to stay home if they are not feeling well. Our staff are trained in universal precautions to help prevent the risk of spreading infectious agents. Blood Center employees’ temperatures are taken prior to the start of each shift. Blood donor temperatures are taken before they can start the registration process. Blood Center employees are to wear masks and donors a face covering. Blood drive set-ups are changed to allow more social spacing between donors and staff. Blood donations are by appointment only and walk-ins are only allowed if space allows. We are also regularly cleaning public surfaces. Refreshments for blood donors are single service, individually wrapped.

Paramount Hudson Valley Theater

The Woodstock Experience – Back to the Garden 1969 brings the music, spirit, and soul of the legendary Woodstock era roaring back to life. Founded by Gary Adamson, this powerhouse ensemble of seasoned, nationally touring musicians are all multi-instrumentalists and dynamic lead vocalists, uniquely equipped to capture the astonishing range and depth of the music that defined a generation. More than a concert, this is a celebration of peace, love, and the revolutionary sound that forever changed popular music.
Audiences will be transported straight to Max Yasgur’s farm as the band faithfully recreates the iconic sounds of Woodstock’s most legendary performers—from the harmonies and guitar fire to the raw, soulful vocals that shaped classic rock. Featuring music made famous by Crosby, Stills, Nash &amp; Young, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Santana, The Who, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Joe Cocker, Jefferson Airplane, The Band, and many more, the show pays tribute to the artists who made Woodstock the ultimate rock festival. 
What truly sets Back to the Garden 1969 apart is its immersive, full multimedia theatrical experience. Period costuming, vintage lighting, evocative video, authentic sound bites, and compelling storytelling combine to recreate not just the music, but the moment—the cultural upheaval, the communal energy, and the magic of the late 1960s. From nostalgic Baby Boomers to curious Gen Zers, this is not your typical tribute band—it’s a tribute to a moment in time. So grab your tie-dye and love beads and celebrate Woodstock at the Paramount on June 20. 
*As a reminder, no outside food or drink permitted in the venue. Any patron found with outside alcohol, is subject to removal. Backpacks and large bags are not permitted inside of the venue. All guests are subject to bag checks and security wanding upon entry.

Cooking for Your Health: Cancer Survivorship — Adjusting to a “New Normal”

Eventide by Kent Aruf
Published in 2004, it was critically acclaimed and a best-selling novel.
Kent Haruf, award-winning, bestselling author of Plainsong returns to the high-plains town of Holt, Colorado, with a novel of masterful authority. The aging McPheron brothers are learning to live without Victoria Roubideaux, the single mother they took in and who has now left their ranch to start college. A lonely young boy stoically cares for his grandfather while a disabled couple tries to protect their violent relative. As these lives unfold and intersect, Eventide unveils the immemorial truths about human beings: their fragility and resilience, their selfishness and goodness, and their ability to find family in one another. &nbsp;(Goodreads)Visit the library's Web site to register.

This workshop is part of the ongoing body of research on embodied knowledge, somatic ideation, and touch theory from The (Ari) Always Human Research Group, led by artist, industrial designer, and educator Ari Elefterin.&nbsp;
In this workshop, you will…do exactly what the title says! Through a series of guided movements and somatic ideation exercises, we will examine the act of sitting—exploring questions of balance, gravity, support, and the body’s capacity to hold, adapt, and generate new possibilities for interaction. We will begin with a mind/body warm-up, followed by a series of somatic ideation exercises. Moving through several rounds of exploration, you will work from using only your body toward incorporating architectural props as you gradually move closer to becoming a “chair.” Along the way, we will embrace a spirit of humorous critique, playfully interrogating the design world’s enduring fascination with the chair as we expand, reimagine, and build our own vocabulary for what a “chair” might actually be.
Designed for dancers and non-dancers alike, the workshop requires no prior movement experience and is not discipline specific. All you need is a willingness to engage with your own embodied knowledge and curiosity. Participants will explore exercises involving giving and receiving weight with one another, making it an especially lovely experience to share with a friend.
