SUMMARY:Unplowed Realities
DESCRIPTION:Unplowed Realities examines farms\, land\, and animals as interconnected systems of survival\, care\, and resilience at a time when small farmers face mounting economic and environmental pressures. \nThrough portraiture\, Joan O’Neal explores the animal gaze\, positioning the dairy cow as a subject rather than a resource. Her portraits invite us to consider empathy\, labor\, vulnerability\, and our relationships with other species. \nGeorge Shenk\, community activist\, experimental farmer\, writer\, and creative\, explores the human labor of sustaining small farms and the vital connections between land\, food\, animals\, and community. \nTogether\, their work asks us to reconsider how we value land\, labor\, food\, and life and reminds us that ecological health and community well-being are deeply connected.

SUMMARY:Waitsfield Farmer's Market
DESCRIPTION:We’re a unique collective of Vermont farmers\, makers\, bakers\, and shakers in the heart of the Mad River Valley.  \nEstablished in 1993\, the Waitsfield Farmer’s Market has been a meeting place for those who appreciate Vermont farmers and artisans for decades. Our market vendors are a carefully curated group of local Vermont businesses that provide the highest quality products to the market. Every Saturday\, rain or shine\, mid-May to mid-October\, you’ll find us on the Mad River Green! \nLocal produce\, plant starts\, maple\, honey\, flowers\, seedlings\, eggs\, meats\, cheeses\, fish\, crafts\, art\, clothes\, bread\, baked goods\, coffee\, spirits\, cider\, mead and prepared foods all by Vermonters. Every Saturday there is live entertainment. Visitors are welcome to bring their pets on leash. \nOur market is proud to offer many food benefit options for our community\, learn more about them below! \n3 Squares VT / SNAP \nThe Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) offers nutrition assistance to millions of eligible\, low-income individuals and families and provides economic benefits to communities. In fact\, SNAP is the largest program in the domestic hunger safety net. The Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) works with key stakeholders in every state to ensure that those eligible for nutrition assistance can make informed decisions about applying for the program and can access benefits. \nFarm to Family\nFarm to Family is a program funded by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). These coupons are in denominations of $6.00 and helps individuals buy fresh fruits and vegetables\, locally grown from Vermont farms and at Farmers Markets. Look for vendors at our Market with the Farm to Family Program sign to accept your coupons. \nCrop Cash\nCrop Cash is a double-value coupon program that promotes the purchase of fresh fruits\, vegetables\, and herbs at farmers markets that accept 3SquaresVT/SNAP benefits. In essence\, Crop Cash is an incentive dollar that is earned for 3SquaresVT/SNAP purchases for use on the future purchase of fresh fruits\, vegetables\, herbs\, seeds\, and starts at the market. Coupons are marked specifically to each Market and available year round. NOFA-VT manages this program.

SUMMARY:Arthur Schaller Collage series Variations in Blue
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate Variations in Blue by Arthur Schaller in the lobby @ The Bigger Picture. Reception begins @5:30pm This exhibition features ten pieces that explore the color blue and its potential in creating atmospheric spatial settings. This is the first that Variations in Blue has been shown. \nArthur Schaller\nCollage series Variations in Blue\nThoughts on collage:\nFor decades I have been working in paper collage\, specifically\nwith four-color process printed matter\, ripped\, torn or surgically\nremoved from popular publications (though the source of the\nactual surfaces is unimportant.) This process is a means of\nexploring architectural/pictorial space as well as placing objects\nand forms in space. The representation itself resists alteration by\ndrawing\, painting or digital manipulation\, relying instead on\nassembling rich color and textural surfaces with multiple light\nsources found both in the printed material itself and in constructed\nlight\, shade and shadow. Much of the collage work is in a series\nformat where a concept and compositional format is established\nsetting in motion an ordered framework for theme and variational\nimprovisation. Currently twenty-two such series\, spanning from\n1990 to the present\, have been completed with approximately\nfour hundred collages.\nThis exhibition features ten pieces that explore the color blue and\nits potential in creating atmospheric spatial settings. This series is\npart of a larger group of seventy pieces in sets of ten\, each\nfocusing on a specific color: black\, white\, red\, green\, pink\, yellow\nand blue. This is the first that Variations in Blue has been shown.\nTime & Location \nSep 12\, 2026\, 5:30 PM – 6:30 PM\nBig Picture Theater & Cafe\, 48 Carroll Rd\, Waitsfield\, VT 05673\, USA
