The Western Catskills of New York State is a region with a rich cultural history as shown in its music, dancing and storytelling. The life and work of Grant Rogers along with other musicians from the early and mid-twentieth century exemplify this history, much of which is in danger of being lost. Two organizations, Music on the Delaware and the William B. Ogden Free Library, are sponsoring an effort to preserve this cultural history with this website through interviews, music, and photography and to support activities that carry on the spirit of this evolving cultural legacy.
Screening of “Indian Summer” (remastered version) and “The Fall of Cannonsville” (a new film by Charles Cadkin) on
Thursday June 29 at 6:30 p.m. at the Walton Theatre,
followed by Q & A with filmmaker and producer.
