Special Meeting of the Rhinebeck Hamlet Advisory Council

Location: Rhinecliff Firehouse

For the past three months, the Council’s  meetings have centered on discussions of the alternative proposal for the Historic District, now known as Alternative Proposal F to the proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Laws before the Town Board.

Residents of the Hamlet have provided the Council with feedback on this proposal over the last three meetings.  The agenda for this special meeting is for the Council to vote on whether or not to endorse Alternative Proposal F in advance of the Town Board’s public hearings on the Comp Plan, scheduled for October 4 and 7.  The meeting will provide an additional opportunity for Rhinecliff residents to ask questions and make their voices heard before the Council’s vote.

Come join your neighbors for a vitally important discussion about the future of the Hamlet of Rhinecliff and the Town of Rhinebeck.

What do Mark Twain, Walt Whitman, JK Rowling, Toni Morrison, Aristophanes, Chaucer, Daniel Defoe, William Shakespeare, Maya Angelou and Jack London have in common? They have all written books that have been banned, deemed unsuitable for public consumption.

Restriction of free thought and free speech is the most dangerous of all subversions, wrote Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas in his essay, The One Un-American Act. "It is the one un-American act that could most easily defeat us." Tivoli Free Library will join with other libraries nationwide to celebrate Banned Books Week (September 27-October 4). As part of its celebration of democracy and the embrace of the right to read the unorthodox and/or unpopular the library will host a free performance by stand-up poet and serial parodist Mikhail Horowitz and unapologetically French guitarist Gilles Malkine at 7 p.m. Friday, October 3.

The duo have been performing together in the Hudson Valley and beyond since 1989. They recycle literary classics, adapting them to rap,blues, and other musical idioms; they perform unlawful acts of political satire, and spoof or pay dubious homage to various subgenres of traditional American folk music. They've shared bills and/or collaborated with Peter Schickele (P.D.Q. Bach), Ed Sanders (The Fugs), David Amram, Kate Pierson (The B-52s), and Jay Ungar and Molly Mason, among others. Their work has been featured on a dozen CDs and several NPR programs.

This event was funded in part by Poets & Writers, Inc. with public funds from The New York State Council on the Arts, a state agency.

The performance is suitable for older teenagers and adults. It is free and open to the public. For more information, call Tivoli Free Library at 845-757-3771. The library is located at 86 Broadway in the Village of Tivoli.

After a successful performance at Hudson Opera House, the staged reading of award-winning playwright Rosary O'Neill's play goes on tour. Catch the reading of Beckett at Greystones Bay at Morton Memorial Library.
