Westchester Bluegrass Club
Chicken Wire Empire
Appearing on Sunday, Sept. 27. Rooted in the Midwest but reaching far beyond it, Chicken Wire Empire has quickly become one of the most exciting voices in modern bluegrass. Formed in Milwaukee, the band blends tight traditional picking with a progressive edge, creating a sound that feels both familiar and refreshingly new. Their music is driven by crisp banjo lines, soaring fiddle melodies, rich vocal harmonies, and a rhythmic backbone that keeps everything locked in and moving forward.
This is a family-friendly event, a kids are free! Bring your own lawn chairs or blankets, pack a picnic, and feel free to bring wine or beer to enjoy on the lawn. In case of inclement weather, the event will move indoors to the Lake Purdys Clubhouse. Gates open at 3 p.m., showtime from 4 to 6 p.m. $30 suggested donation.

The Gallery at Yellow Studio
‘Traces of the Infinite’ Exhibition
The Gallery at Yellow Studio presents "Traces of the Infinite," a small group exhibition featuring the work of Helena Palazzi, Soli Pierce, and Lara Saget, on view through Oct. 18. The exhibition brings together three practices that share an interest in a rawness of material and form, and a refusal to treat separation as final.
Pierce and Saget both build their work from the materials of the natural world, stone, wood, glass, and metal, treating found and raw matter as a starting point rather than a finished thing. Palazzi's paintings meet that work with a muted palette and layered surface that hold the same quiet register. Together, the artists share an interest in what lies beneath the visible surface of a work, and in the moments when the boundaries we take for granted begin to give way.
