The World According to Sound Thursday Dec 5 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm The Cherry ArtspaceThe World According to Sound is bringing their hour-long surround sound live experience to the Cherry Artspace in Ithaca. Listeners will sit in total darkness, surrounded by a ring of powerful loudspeakers, awash in sounds. The first night features sounds from all over the world, and the second is a sonic exploration of Cornell University. On the first night, December 5, you will hear bridges and ants and the gurgle of mud pots. The sounds will transport you inside another person’s head, to the reverberant inner chambers of the Hagia Sophia, and back in time a hundred years to the streets of Berlin. The 30 sounds in the show include a musical performance by a washing machine, a symphony of athletic grunts, and the disturbing howl Marco Polo heard while crossing the Gobi Desert. On the second night, December 6, we will go deep into the sounds of Cornell. For one semester, Sam and Chris listened to the university. They listened to dorms and dining halls and frats; to a particle accelerator, conversational Latin, and the stomach of a cow; to dozens of 19th-century kinetic machines, the mechanics of a pipe organ, and the stomp of step dancing; to hockey skates, taiko drums, and fencing sabres; to research on mating spiders, vibrating deserts, dying plants, and outer space; to wire recordings, records, film reels, cassettes, and VHS tapes hidden in archives several floors underground; to water in a gorge, the rustle of leaves, a symphony of insects and all the sounds made in an entire day on campus. It will be a university in a way you’ve never experienced one before.

“CELEBRATE ReUse 2!” Art Exhibit Opening Friday Dec 6 5:30 pm - 8 pm Tompkins County Public Library 101 E Green St, Ithaca, NY 14850, USAFinger Lakes ReUse is partnering with Tompkins County Public Library on “CELEBRATE ReUse 2!,” an exhibit of creative reuse works by local artists.
Please join us this Friday for the exhibit's opening as part of Ithaca's First Friday Gallery Night, December 6th, from 5:30 to 8:00 pm at Tompkins County Public Library (101 East Green Street, Ithaca, NY) As a response to ever-filling landfills, overproduction, and diminishing natural resources, CELEBRATE ReUse2! is meant to inspire visual artists and community members to continue shifting the paradigm and take reuse to a new level. Creative reuse enlightens and sparks imagination, demonstrating that artistic creativity and learning can take place anywhere and everywhere—and with all manner of materials—and that “junk” has value for those who can see meaning and aesthetics beyond the discarding of things. Work in this exhibit incorporates materials that would otherwise be thrown away. At Friday's opening in the Tompkins Public Library, meet some of the artists and view the delightful artwork selected for this celebration of creative reuse all while enjoying complimentary refreshments. CELEBRATE ReUse 2! features the imagination, vision, and talent of artists including Victoria Romanoff, Alice Muhlback, Paul Colucci, Alice Gant, Diane Colman, Robin Tropper-Herbel, Emily Sullivan, Clair Pennels, Teresa Bakota Yatsko, Nancy Malina, Jess Orkin, Eva M. Capobianco, Laura Robert, Sandy Yahner and Maude Rith. The show is curated by local artist Robyn Wishna. As part of several exhibits opening at the Library on Friday, the evening will also include a special presentation from Community Arts Partnership’s Artist-in-Community, Scott Hitz. Read more about all of the shows on TCPL's website here. The CELEBRATE ReUse 2! Art Show will be open in the Avenue of the Friends of the Tompkins County Public Library through the end of February 2020.
