Rockland Voices
This semi-permanent exhibition has been made possible by generous support from The Provident Bank Charitable Foundation. It relates early history through historic objects and documents. Stories of the people, buildings and sites are told using highlights from The Historical Society's varied collections. For example, through Teunis Smith's diary, the exhibition will look at observations from a farmer's diary in the lower Hudson --ordinary, extraordinary, and vivid details of farming as a way of life and the relationship farmers have to the landscape, weather, crop production and sales. With the help of documents from Elizabeth Van Houten's Sampler, the exhibition will explore childhood in that period of time and information about her and her family. Also on view is the extraordinary rooster weather vane that was at one time atop the Reformed Church in Tappan. Don't miss this wonderful walk through Rockland History.
Hours: Wednesday - Sunday 12 - 4pm. Admission is free, donations greatly appreciated.

Women of Rockland
Opening Reception: Exhibition Runs: June 1 through July 31.
"Women of Rockland" Interactive Art Installation to be installed at the Palisades Center Mall. A shopping trip to the Palisades Mall in West Nyack might not be the most likely place to see an art installation but, visitors will be in for a visual treat when Rockland artist Lisa Levart's newest photographic exhibition, Women of Rockland; Portraits of Sacred Myths, is suspended between three floors of a main Atrium from June 1 through July 31. The installation, along with the womenofrockland.com website, is the first interactive installation that the Palisades Mall has had. The exhibition will have traveled the county from the Nyack Center, where it opened in April, to the Rockland County Day School, to its final destination at the Palisades Mall. Women of Rockland features a series of large photographic fabric banners with images of five Rockland County women from diverse cultures that capture evocative contemporary interpretations of known and little known sacred myths from their individual and international cultures including a Jewish filmmaker, the founder of Mzuzu Academy, the first internationally accredited secondary school in the northern region of Malawi, a Chinese American visual artist, three young college students from the Sufi Mosque in Chestnut Ridge and a French Gypsy singer/songwriter. The photographic images will be accompanied by a written piece commenting on the ancient myth that each woman chose to embody and why that sacred story has meaning in their everyday lives.
