Note from Marty - NYC   April 7th

This is a reminder of the NYC shopping trip we talked about at the meeting.  It is with Wade tours on April 7th.  It is a shopping special of 35.00 for the trip.

Some have said they would like the trip in April and some thought they would like a later in the spring date.  We will try for another date

later but if you are interested in the April trip call Wade and make your arrangements.  

After your plans are made let me know if you will be on the bus.  I will make a list of shops and addresses of the stores we have found and we hope to check out a few new ones.

See you on the bus!

GEORGIA O’KEEFFE: VISIONS OF HAWAI‘I – NY BOTANICAL GARDENS: JUNE 29

Date: June 29^th

Discover the artist’s little-known depictions of the Hawaiian Islands—and the plants and landscapes that inspired them.

Pioneering American modernist Georgia O’Keeffe (1887–1986) conveyed a distinct sense of place with innovative depictions of her surroundings, from stark New Mexican landscapes to New York cityscapes. Yet flowers and plants were subjects that engaged O’Keeffe throughout her career. Curated by Theresa Papanikolas, Ph.D., of the Honolulu Museum of Art, this landmark exhibition will offer a rare focus on 20 of O’Keeffe’s depictions of Hawai‘i from a nine-week sojourn in 1939 commissioned by the Hawaiian Pineapple Company to create artwork for an advertising campaign.

A lush exhibition in the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory of Hawaiian flora and a stunning display in the LuEsther T. Mertz Library Art Gallery that includes more than 15 of O’Keeffe’s Hawai‘i paintings—not seen together in New York since their debut in 1940—will spotlight a transformative experience in the legendary artist’s life, revealing O’Keeffe’s deeply felt impressions and the enduring influence of the Islands’ dramatic landscapes and exotic plants.

Depart	From	Return
6:45 am	Wade Terminal	8:45 pm
7:15 am	Crossgates Mall – Macys Overflow lot	8:00 pm
7:30 am	Latham Farms	8:15 pm

You will need to make your own reservations with Wade Tours and ask that your seat be with the Red Hat Group.

Please Note,  lunch will be on our own at the Botanical Gardens.  Lunch is not included in the cost of the reservation.
