Back To The Garden 1969: The Woodstock Experience
The Glove Theatre can't wait to welcome back - Back to the Garden (BTTG) 1969 - The Woodstock Experience! What a blast we had with them last year! The Woodstock Music Festival was the ultimate rock concert, a celebration of peace, love and music. More than fifty years later, BTTG brings you back to the music and that weekend. Formed by Gary Adamson in 2009, this is a group of versatile musicians and singers who have come together to celebrate the music, and the spirit of the Woodstock Era. BTTG 1969 recreates the classic sounds associated with Woodstock. The musical performances are a tribute to the artists who made Woodstock great, including Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Jimi Hendrix, Sly &The Family Stone, Jefferson Airplane, Santana, Joe Cocker, Janis Joplin, The Band, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Canned Heat, Ten Years After, The Who, Mountain, Richie Havens, Melanie, Arlo Guthrie, Blood, Sweat & Tears, The Grateful Dead, Country Joe & The Fish,?and more! BTTG 1969 brings you a full multimedia theatrical event, recreating the Woodstock Experience through period costuming, lighting, video, and sound bites. Storytelling also enhances the mood, with tales of the festival, the legendary artists who performed, and the backdrop of the tumultuous decade of the 60?s. This is not your typical tribute band! Most tribute bands perform the music of only one artist. BTTG 1969 is a tribute to a very special moment in time, and to the many artists whose music will forever be known as ?Classic Rock.? From nostalgic Baby Boomers to intrigued Gen Z'ers, and all those in between, there is something in this show for EVERYONE! Grab your tie dye and love beads...and come celebrate Woodstock with us at The Glove! All ages welcome! 21+ to drink with valid ID
Organics in the circular economy: How they affect our carbon footprint at Landis Aboretum
Location: The Nicholas J. Juried Meeting House Registration: Free. Donations to the Arboretum greatly appreciated. Join us from 10;00 AM to noon to learn about organic recycling, an important step in effectively reducing our carbon footprint. Organic recycling starts with collection, moving it into our yards, farms or central facilities so it can be processed. Microbes turn our organic waste into a resource and we can help make that happen. We will discuss different ingredients (manures, cloth, food waste, yard waste, livestock mortality..) that we can convert into a product. Compost use is the third leg on the climate footprint stool and really makes an impact. Compost is used in erosion control, growing fruit and vegetables, orchards, agroforestry, organic and conventional farms, rural and urban landscapes. Learn how to use compost blankets, sox, and berms. Organics make up 60 % of our waste, not including livestock manure or humanure (human manure), when they are placed in a landfill to emit greenhouse gases. Using compost is the key to reducing our carbon footprint by 3x more than compost processing itself. Instructor: Jean Bonhotal, Cornell University, has 30 years experience in organics recycling with Cornell Waste Management Institute. This event is free for all participants.

Pinkster Azalea: A story of a unique plant, local history, the Dutch community, and slavery. at Landis Arboretum
Location: The Nicholas J. Juried Meeting House Registration: Arboretum members: individual $5, family $15; nonmembers individual $5, family $15 Our native Pinkster azaleas and the word Pinkster hold a unique place in local and New York State history. During the 1700s and 1800s, the word ''Pinkster'' was associated with a weeklong Dutch celebration of Pentecost that eventually evolved into a significant holiday for enslaved people. Once a major East Coast festival, it is now nearly forgotten. The term ''Pinkster azalea'' refers to two distinct species of Rhododendron that are native to New York. This class explores how to identify these plants and where to find them in the wild. Additionally, the course offers a glimpse into our regional history, covering the intersection of Dutch traditions, early festivals, and the experience of slavery.
Against The Grayne: 90s Grunge & Alt Rock at The Glove Theatre
The Glove proudly welcomes back Against the Grayne for a night of 90s grunge, alt rock and beyond. Against the Grayne plays your favorites from the era with a few ?odds? thrown in for fun!! It?s going to be an awesome time! Here?s what Penny Piper/RadioRadiox.com had to say about last year?s show at The Glove: ?Let me just say it: Against The Grayne is the ?90s grunge cover band you didn?t know you needed in your life until you see them live. As a proud Gen Xer who came of age during the golden era of flannel, distortion, and angsty lyrics, their performance at the Glove Theatre on April 4 [2025] transported me straight back to 1993 in the best way possible. These guys don?t just play the music?they embody it. Covering artists like Layne Staley and Chris Cornell is no small feat. You need nerves of steel and actual talent to pull it off, and lead singer Luke Baird has both in spades. His voice has that deep, smooth edge that makes you do a double-take, and he?s got the guts to get up there and own it. It?s not just about hitting the notes?it?s about capturing the raw emotion and energy of an era, and Luke does just that.? ?The setlist was flawless, hitting all the essentials?from Alice In Chains to Sublime?and even throwing in a few surprises. When they busted out Montell Jordan?s ?This Is How We Do It,? the crowd absolutely lost it. Everyone was on their feet, screaming the lyrics and dancing like it was the summer of ?95 again. That moment? Pure magic. But what really sets Against the Grayne apart is who they are. They?re the real deal: warm, kind, hilarious, and totally engaged with the crowd. Their stage presence was as entertaining as their music. Between songs, they had us laughing, sharing stories, and feeling like we were part of the show. It?s rare to see a band that talented also be that down-to-earth?and it?s why I felt compelled to write this.? Against the Grayne headlined an evening at Cohoes Rock the Block summer series in 2023, 2024 and 2025! Dig out the flannels, ripped jeans and combat boots and come have a fun night with us enjoying your favorites from the 90s! This show is sponsored by the Glove?s 518 Concert Series ? support live local 518 music!!!! All ages welcome! 21+ to drink with valid I.D.
