Record Attic Art Success
$1913.27 Raised
Jean Welch, chairperson for this year’s Attic Art Sale, hands a
check for over $1900 to Bonnie Barney, YCAC Board member,
as the proceeds from the sale. The entire amount will be
awarded in $200 increments to Yates County groups who submit proposals for art-related projects. Watch the next Perspectives for the application and details. Youth groups, school
classes, senior citizens programs, after school programs, etc. might apply.
YCAC thanks all those who donated items for sale, especially Dick Rickman for his large donation
of art related items which had been Mary’s. This put our efforts over the top this year.
Scholarship Fund Grows
The scholarship fund for YCAC’s memorial to Mary Rickman continues to grow, toward our
goal of $2500. Thanks go this month to Peter & Judith Loomis for a generous contribution.
The next Perspectives will detail the application process and deadlines.

new designs reproduced in a painterly manner on high quality card stock. A box of 8 cards will
sell again for $10, or buy 4 boxes and receive the fifth box free. Special orders of all one design
or of retired designs from previous years will be accepted. Bev Oben, project chair, reports that
art from Mark Verna, Hannelore Wolcott-Bailey, Charlie Northrup, Bonnie Barney, Gwen

the ideas seen in the work of the discussed artist. For example, the class may look at the work of Gustav
Klimt's use of patterns, design, and large simplified figures or Paul Cezanne's landscapes and then create
their own masterpiece.
DRAMA: (October 21, 18, November 4, 11, 18, December 2)
Instructor: Kathy Gill
This course involves 6 sessions with each session developed to introduce the child to all aspects of theater, from movement, improvisation, paper bag skits, to the history of theater, the basics of acting, to scene
writing for skits or puppet plays, to performance including set and costume design. The culminating activity
will be a performance of original puppet plays and skits, written and directed by the children for parents
and invited guests.
Save the date!
The Hamstead Players production of "A Christmas Carol" will take place Saturday, December 4th at 2:00
pm at the Penn Yan Middle School Auditorium. This will culminate our CATS study of drama and offer a
holiday treat. The production is geared for grades K-8. The unique approach of the Hampstead Players
uses mainly classical or historical plays, which educate while entertaining and uses audience participation
to eliminate the distance between actor and audience.

Mary Rickman’s Heritage…
We gratefully accept the donation of Mary Rickman’s art video tapes, CDs, and extensive library
of art books. We now have nearly 100 tapes, 9
crates of books, and many computer CD programs
available for loan...as soon as we inventory them
and set up a sign-out system.
This volunteer opportunity is short-term, at your
leisure, and fun: sort and shelve the collection, and
set up a system for signing out materials, such as
a card file. Please...we need a volunteer.
With so many materials to share, we’re thinking it
would be fun this fall to start a “sandwiched in”
sharing time, brown-bag it over lunch and watch a
video with friends. Interested? Please call.
