The vision of YCAC is to enhance and enrich life in Yates County through edu-cation and the advancement

of the arts. To this end, we plan, promote, and develop art programs and projects; coordinate, schedule, and publi-cize events; develop and maintain physical facilities. Programs of YCAC are supported by an annual grant from the Yates County Legislature, from commis-sions collected on Gallery sales, and by memberships.

YCAC programs are sup-ported in part with public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts - Decentralization Program, which is admin-istered locally by Finger Lakes Arts Grants & Services.

How Does an Artist Become Affiliated with The Gallery? The following is the YCAC Board’s policy which answers that question.

Becoming an Exhibiting Artist at YCAC’s Gallery: The YCAC serves as a venue for local Yates County artists or geographically near regional artists. This also includes summer resident artists, and artists who teach workshops or volun-teer in some capacity for YCAC. Sales commissions earned from The Gallery support YCAC’s many programs. The artist must be a member of Yates County Arts Center. * The artist will submit 3 works to be reviewed and approved by the Artistic Advisory Commit-tee. If accepted, the artist will be invited to participate in appropriate exhibits. The YCAC Gallery reserves the right to display only those works the exhibit chair considers suitable to the show design and for which there is space for that particular exhibit. Occasionally the YCAC may invite a well-known artist to display work at The Gallery as a special feature. In this case, the artist would not be required to reside locally, but would be expected to become a member. Exceptions to this policy occur for two annual shows: the student show is open to any Yates County art student as determined by their teachers, and the Penn Yan Art Guild show is open to all guild members. All participating artists, except the students, must sign a consignment agreement with YCAC. (* This membership requirement is new. )

Toxic Art Materials What Every Artist Should Know

By Nate Orman, off The Web

For casual hobbyists and professional artists alike, art supplies have become such familiar materials that one rarely stops to seriously consider their specific ingredients. Somehow we reconcile the uneasy suspicion that everything causes cancer with the memory of that kid eating crayons in kindergarten. In reality, art materials should be approached with informed caution. Toxic substances such as cadmium, lead, chromium and cobalt provide the most vibrant colors, but repeated exposure can cause serious harm. Painters, printmakers and ceramicists regularly use solvents and glazes that are hazardous. We rely on the warning labels to guide us in which supplies we choose and how we use them, but those labels supply incomplete and potentially misleading information. According to Merle Spandorfer, artist and author of "Making Art Safely," "Just because a product is on the market does not mean that it is safe or that the label tells the while story." The current labeling system comes in three forms: "AP" (Approved Product), "CP" (Certified Product) and "Health Label," all of which signify that the product is properly labeled according to the legal requirements — not that it is safe.

There are several keywords to look for:

· WARNING signifies that the substance is toxic with short-term effects · CAUTION means that it's toxic and a chronic hazard · DANGER indicates that the material is highly toxic · POISON means that it is highly toxic if ingested.

These terms are relatively straightforward, but another one, NONTOXIC, is less so than you'd expect. The legal definition of "toxic" is determined by animal testing whereby evaluators give a single "dose" to each of a group of rats. If fewer than half have died after two weeks, the product is labeled "nontoxic." According to this system, as Dr. Michael McCann, former executive director of the Center for Safety in the Arts points out, even asbestos could be deemed nontoxic. Testers also overlook the effects of chronic exposure when they assume that individual artists will be working with smaller amounts of toxic substances than their industrial counterparts — which doesn't account for situations where artists work and live in a common space. Other expressions are similarly misleading: "Use with adequate ventilation" indicates that the product contains toxic material that becomes airborne during use — but remains below acceptable danger levels if appropriate ventilation is used. "Biodegradable" simply indicates that something breaks down into non-polluting substances, but the original product can still be toxic and unsafe. "Natural" describes the origin of the substance but makes no claims about its toxicity. Fortunately, artists can make informed choices. Manufacturers are required by law to furnish a detailed "Materials Safety Data Sheet" if you simply write or call them at the address and telephone number provided on the product in question.

The legal definition of "toxic" is The legal definition of "toxic" is The legal definition of "toxic" is The legal definition of "toxic" is determined by animal testing determined by animal testing determined by animal testing determined by animal testing whereby evaluators give a whereby evaluators give a whereby evaluators give a whereby evaluators give a single "dose" to each of a group single "dose" to each of a group single "dose" to each of a group single "dose" to each of a group of rats.

Recent Guild Events: a great time was had by all!

Guild president Lyle Conrad notes that over 140 people in the community turned out to honor Ruth Brown at the Gallery reception featuring her lifetime work in conjunction with the Guild annual show. He shares, “Special rec-ognition was given to Ruth Brown, who through painting, has been sharing her scenes and experiences with us for a number of years. We thank her for continuing in her own quiet way, to inspire us all.” He thanks the mem-bers and YCAC for working on the show and reception, Rooster Hill Winery for wine at the reception, and espe-

cially thanks community members who loaned their lovely Ruth Brown paintings. Twenty artists painted winter scenes with Judy Soprano on our Sep-tember workshop...and we hope some of the new faces will join our monthly meetings. Several guild members have also painted “en plein air” at The Windmill on two occasions, helping to make the com-munity aware of our programs. The Guild mourns the recent death of long-time member Jane Terry, much loved artist, teacher, and friend.

Our Memoir Writers create “palm of the hand” pieces, one page vignettes, such as... I don’t remember how we first met Alberta, which is strange, because you don’t “just happen” to drop in on a hermit. And I can’t remem-ber her last name, for which I apologize, as she is a character worth remembering. Alberta was in her ninth decade. She lived alone, without assistance of electricity, running water, telephone, eye glasses or hearing aid. Current events were an intrusion she did not welcome. The only doctor she ever met merely wanted to purchase her land, and she wasn’t interested in selling. Alberta’s home was in Pleasant Valley, between Bath and Hammondsport. In the flood of 1935, a key bridge on her road was washed out and never replaced. From then on, she and her brother walked to the Fish Hatchery Road on their rare excursions: delivering their honey harvest to market, purchasing some manufactured goods and processed foods. After her brother died, keeping the bees and harvesting the honey became too much for Alberta, so there were few, if any, trips away from home. Alberta’s hollow was an Eden to our eyes. Everything she needed for her solitary life was there. The house had three rooms, a kitchen, living room, and bedroom. One of the several small out-buildings was her “necessary place”. Meandering past the house was a stream, cut two feet below the garden level to protect against high water in the spring. Alberta had dug the channel, and lined it with stone at the bends to reduce erosion. She was considering re-routing it to the other side of the house the next year. In the winter, she broke the ice to ladle water out. Alberta’s garden supplied the root cellar, the drying sheds, and her table. Every variety of fruit tree was in her little orchard, and at age 86 she was still planting new plum trees from seed. Her vegetable beds were raised and terraced, not because that was the current style, but to best use the terrain of her narrow valley. Some of the plants had been allowed to go to seed, necessary for the next year. Unaccustomed to visitors, Alberta was shy. She had no practice in conversation, and failed to understand our motive in bringing our chil-dren to meet her. It took several visits to overcome the feeling that we were intruding, and we never found a way to repay her for her hospitality, as there was nothing she desired that she didn’t have. One Christmas we strapped on our cross-country skis and Adirondack packs to pay a visit. We took a small spruce, strings of cranberries and popcorn, gingerbread men threaded on ribbons, and home-made paper ornaments. Alberta had never had a Christmas tree, nor a birthday cake, nor a celebration. I suppose we expected to be rewarded by surprise and gratitude. Alberta listened to our explanation of this decorated tree which we crowded into her living room, and politely allowed us to place it there. She had never missed what she never had, and we took a lesson from it. Alberta had it all.
