Concurrent exhibitions spotlight the 2025–2026 residency cohort at Clay Art Center, featuring Rittenberg Artist-in-Residence Alvaro Villa, second-year residents Christine Raposas and Carley Holzem, and Westchester Community Foundation Fellow Stephanie Perez. Living A Dream, Riding A Wave brings together Raposas, Holzem, and Perez, who use clay to animate three distinct journeys. Their works traverse a playful realm of queer joy, a dystopian space that hovers between the familiar and the unknown, and a surreal vision of a rainbow beneath the sea. Through texture, color, and form, each artist shapes a separate world that shares a single animating force. In La House of Objects en el Orbital, Alvaro Villa, working as a ceramic brujo, invites viewers into a place where kiln and cauldron meet and devotional objects carry meditative and ritual significance. The presentation honors the art and magic of objects, tools, and planning within his practice, showcasing brick-red ceramic pieces and mixed-media sculptures that elevate the implements, sketches, and materials that drive his process. Studio tools return as newly imagined works through a blend of ceramic craft and subversive rethinking. Founded in 1998 by Director Emeritus Reena Kashyap, Clay Art Center’s nationally recognized artist-in-residence program offers emerging artists the time and space to develop their voices while gaining experience in a community setting through teaching, sharing technical knowledge, and supporting studio operations. Selected through a competitive process, artists come to Port Chester from across the country and many go on to build thriving careers around the world.

The film was produced by 3 Nuts Studios, the independent team of Jason Nower, John J. Sheridan, and Mike “The Homeless Pimp” Lavin, whose recent work includes comedy specials with Chris Distefano, Jared Freid, Dan Soder, and Colin Quinn. They oversaw editing and visual post in close collaboration with Palminteri. Executive producers include Robert De Niro, Jane Rosenthal, Jon Kilik, and Palminteri’s manager Brian Liebman.

Gaelic-American ClubCircles Around The Sun
Circles Around The Sun brings a free ticket performance presented as part of Levitt Pavilion’s 2026 season. The Los Angeles based instrumental rock group began in 2015 when Justin Kreutzmann, son of the Grateful Dead drummer Bill, asked founder Neal Casal to create intermission music for the Dead’s Fare Thee Well concerts. Those pieces became Interludes for the Dead, known for spacious, improvised grooves, followed by the 2018 album Let It Wander, which leaned into free form ideas with jazz funk, soul, and fusion influences. After completing the Meets Joe Russo EP and a third album, the band endured the loss of guitarist Neal Casal in 2019. He left a note encouraging the group to continue, and they did, ultimately welcoming John Lee Shannon on guitar as they carried the project forward. Linked to Grateful Dead history in a tangible way, the band has explored a cosmic disco pathway that intersects with post rock, psych rock, jazz funk, and psychedelia, and their recordings have included collaborations with Joe Russo, Billy Strings, and Mikaela Davis. Their live show relies on original instrumentals that take a fresh turn each night. The lineup features Adam MacDougall on keys, Dan Horne on bass, John Lee Shannon on guitar, and Mark Levy on drums. This event is presented as a free ticket show within a season that includes dozens of complimentary concerts alongside select paid engagements. If the ticketing platform shows no complimentary tickets, the listing notes possible avenues such as a limited member reserve for season members while supplies last, potential releases shared through artist channels or giveaways, and first come redistribution of returned or unused tickets at the on site box office. Reserving a ticket or attending signifies agreement with venue rules and safety protocols, which may be updated, and policies can vary by performance.

BMW of BridgeportMidnight North • Fairfield, CT • StageOne
Midnight North brings its Bay Area roots and rich vocal blend to StageOne in Fairfield, CT. The group formed in 2012 around singer songwriters Grahame Lesh and Elliott Peck with bassist Connor O'Sullivan, and the current lineup came together when drummer and banjo player Nathan Graham joined after a chance meeting at a Philadelphia benefit. Time onstage at Terrapin Crossroads helped the band grow as a unit. Their fifth studio album, Diamonds in the Zodiac on the Americana Vibes label, continues the direction set on There’s Always a Story, drawing on bluegrass, country, soul, blues, funk, jazz, and gospel. Two long form tracks, Jupiter with lyrics by Robert Hunter and Questions from Grahame, sit alongside a collection of concise, song driven pieces. The album was produced by Amy Helm and features contributions from Phil and Brian Lesh. It was mixed by D. James Goodwin, and the cover art was created by Micah Nelson. Recording took place at Dave Schools' Spacecamp in Occidental, California, with friends including Jason Crosby and TJ Kanczuzewski joining the sessions. Stories and influences thread through songs such as The Colors Here, Back to California, Walk the Runway, Old Country, Round & Round, In the Sunrise, the centerpiece Jupiter, the reflective Songlines, and A Great Farewell. With deep connections and a collaborative spirit, Midnight North carries forward a generational strand of American roots music.

Later projects included Night Music, Heaven and Hell, and Night and Day II. He reunited the original lineup for Volume 4, relocated to Berlin and recorded Rain, paid tribute to Duke Ellington on The Duke, released Fast Forward, and returned with Fool, which charted across Europe.

Their debut album One Of A Kind, written by co-founders Georgie Fuller and William Turner and crafted largely in Turner’s Brighton studio, widens their harmony-rich, psychedelic-leaning sound and leans into gritty British grooves inspired by classics like the Rolling Stones’ Goats Head Soup. The album spotlights Fuller’s commanding vocals and vintage textures such as Mellotron and organ, from the sing-along single Happiness to rockers and tender, country-tinged tunes. Sharing the bill, MT Jones draws on 60s and 70s soul alongside modern R&B and jazz, pairing a deeply soulful vocal style with contemporary sensibilities. Between time spent working on music in Liverpool and London and writing for other artists, he has stepped forward with his own releases, including I Won't Ever Say Goodbye and Feeling Lonely. His songs have received support from BBC Introducing on 1Xtra and placements on Spotify playlists, including New Music Friday in the UK.

Press coverage has praised the meticulous attention to detail in both notes and words, paired with an adventurous streak that pushes each style to its edge.

After more than two decades, the group keeps pushing forward with a standing rule to avoid repeating itself, so the music continues to move, surprise, and point to what comes next.
