SUMMARY:Buckethead at Center for the Arts
DESCRIPTION:A masked guitar virtuoso. A catalog so massive it defies logic. And a night of music that slips between metal\, funk\, jazz\, blues\, and the beautifully bizarre. \nOn May 11\, the enigmatic Buckethead returns to the Center for the Arts of Homer for an evening of genre-bending soundscapes and lightning-fast fretwork. \nBuckethead has released over 700 studio recordings — more than almost any artist in history — including more than 650 albums in his legendary Pike Series. He’s also appeared on more than 50 albums by other artists\, proving that no style is safe from his six-string sorcery. Expect everything from progressive metal and funk to bluegrass and avant-garde experiments\, often within the same song. \nCome witness the return of a modern musical myth — part shredder\, part storyteller\, part walking curiosity.

SUMMARY:All That Drag
DESCRIPTION:Scandal! Sequins! Suspects!\n\nOn May 9 a tourbus packed with Drag Divas rolls into downtown Cortland.

Alibis will crumble. Each dazzling drag diva’s number delivers another clue. But will you piece it together before the final bow?\nOr maybe it’s true that with the right song and dance\, you really can get away with murder.

SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn: By the Shores of Solon Pond
DESCRIPTION:An unforgettable Civil War-era coming-of-age saga of family\, sacrifice\, and the hard-won courage to hope. \nWaldo Potter has spent his life in the shadows of Solon Pond—working the fields\, tending to chores\, and carrying the weight of his family’s expectations on a farm that barely survives. In upstate New York on the brink of the American Civil War\, he longs for something more even as the burdens at home grow heavier. \nWith his father’s farm slipping toward ruin and familial resentments rising\, Waldo finds an unexpected mentor in his Uncle Charles—whose steady guidance offers both comfort and challenge. When war calls\, Waldo enlists\, stepping into a world of battle\, hardship\, and hard truths that reshape him from the inside out. \nFrom the rich rhythms of rural life to the brutal realities of war\, By the Shores of Solon Pond captures one young man’s journey from boyhood innocence to war-worn self-understanding and his enduring devotion to family. It is a story of heroism\, sacrifice\, and the resilience of the human spirit. \nThis year is our ELEVENTH year of providing lunchtime learning opportunities for our community\, and we hope you’ll join us to learn more about local and regional history! \nWhat to know: \n~This event will take place at our event center located at 9 Grace Street\, Cortland.

SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn: American sculptor William Couper
DESCRIPTION:This illustrated talk explores the surprising connection between the American sculptor William Couper (1853-1942) and the city of Cortland\, New York. Late in life Couper moved to Cortland to live with his son\, the painter William Alan Couper\, who had established a home at 94 Tompkins Street. During his final years there\, Couper had largely left sculpture behind and devoted himself to painting. The presentation traces Couper’s artistic career\, his connection to Thomas Ball\, and the rediscovery of his Cortland residency through local historical research. Sculptures from the speaker’s collection and a painting by William Alan Couper donated to the Cortland County Historical Society will be featured. \nThis year is our ELEVENTH year of providing lunchtime learning opportunities for our community\, and we hope you’ll join us to learn more about local and regional history! \nWhat to know: \n~This event will take place at our event center located at 9 Grace Street\, Cortland.

SUMMARY:The End of the World Never Minding Show
DESCRIPTION:It is time for End of the World Never Minding! Join Bread & Puppet Theater for an urgently-needed new puppet show featuring our upside-down situation\, a revolt orchestra\, screaming choirs\, and a reckoning with the catastrophe of logic.\n\nOf The End of the World Never Minding Show\, director Peter Schumann tells us that\, “The sitting mind realises the predicament of the rats\, assigned to spread the plague which opens the gates of darkness as fears chase the populations across the face of the earth. Humanity’s humdrum is now outrageous and no longer composed of beloved details. The rats in charge of spreading the plague are ordered to repurpose human freedom and democracy into guns\, bombs\, and starvation. Our own futuristic Not-Yet is impatient and unready. We must take our cardboard provocations into the revolting streets of life\, with help from our paper-maché divinities\, to succeed and succeed.”\n\n\n\n\nAfter the show Bread & Puppet will serve its famous sourdough rye bread with aioli\, and Bread & Puppet’s “Cheap Art” – books\, posters\, postcards\, pamphlets and banners from the Bread & Puppet Press – will be for sale.

SUMMARY:Spirits of the Past: Centennial Soiree
DESCRIPTION:The Cortland County Historical Society has spent a century digging up stories\, preserving artifacts\, and keeping the past very much alive. Now\, they’re inviting you to step straight into history itself at the Centennial Soirée\, a one-night celebration on October 25 at the historic Center for the Arts in Homer. \nThis won’t be your average anniversary party. Expect live music to set the mood for mingling\, memory-making\, and maybe a little Charleston if you’re feeling inspired. A curated 1920s fashion display nods to the era when CCHS was first founded\, while a delicious walkabout feast—pasta station with local sauces\, crisp salads\, and a decadent dessert bar—keeps the conversation flowing as easily as the wine. \nCostumes aren’t required\, but guests are encouraged to channel their favorite historical era. Whether you arrive in flapper fringe\, Victorian lace\, or 1980s shoulder pads\, you’ll be part of a century-spanning crowd that bridges the past\, present\, and future. \nThe Centennial Soirée promises nostalgia\, laughter\, and plenty of curiosity as we look ahead to the next hundred years of Cortland County history. Let’s honor the past\, toast the future\, and maybe even make a little history ourselves.
