Pink Peony by Priya Banerjee
A Different Path Gallery is pleased to host artwork from the
students of The Skoog Farm Workshop! Come and see their
remarkable artwork that spans across various mediums and
areas of interest.
The Skoog Farm Workshop was established in March, 2002
by Lori Skoog. Lori retired from teaching art in the Brockport
Central School District in 1999. Her mission then became to
help people from a variety of professions and backgrounds, who did not have prior experience in art, to
find their hidden abilities. Lori firmly believes that everyone has the ability to find success in their art -
and the key to that is learning to see, and being able to develop confidence. Unlike most art classes, all
students begin with a few basic techniques and go on to work in whatever medium they are most
interested in. Over the years, they have painted furniture, hand-woven bags, worked with paper mache,
created collages, made note cards, and so much more.
The students featured in this year’s exhibition are Tina Eibl, Donna Mancuso, Sandy Clark, Pam Radford,
Kathy Speer, Helen Hull, Shamra Westbrook, LuAnne Cenci, and Len Ippolito. The exhibition will also
feature guest artists Priya Banerjee from the Department of Public Health & Health Education and
formal Brockport students, Brenda Cretney and Al Cretney.
The gallery is located at 27 Market Street, Brockport and the Opening Reception for this exhibit will be
held on Friday, Oct. 13 from 7–9 pm. The artwork will remain on display until Oct. 27.
You can view the exhibit Tuesdays through Saturdays from Noon-4 pm by entering through the
Lightways Community Shop at 31 Market Street.

more than 1800 members who attended sessions focused on "Forging the Future of Professional
Counseling".

Cryptburgers
They probably were great, afraid we missed them though.
In the 1960s coffee house era Brockport had its own place, the "Crypt." The Crypt was in the
basement hall of St. Luke's Episcopal Church on State Street. There were many elements of the
typical coffee house scene, folk musicians, poetry readings and so forth. However, in their
"Crypt Burgers" they may have hit a unique note!
Attached is a pdf of an article from the Stylus in 1965 highlighting the Crypt. Come to think of
it, researching this could make a great student paper. The coffee house scene, the music, the
setting for activism of various sorts, perhaps finding alumni who recall that era, interviewing
them..
