What the FLX?! Episode 11: The Days of Incandescence is up now! 💡

Each year in October, there is a one-of-a-kind event that takes place in Corning, New York. The Days of Incandescence transports you to the late 1800s when a mysterious little boy blew the first glass bulb for Thomas Edison’s incandescent lamps and helped bring light into the world! The event is a nod to the mystery surrounding that historic event. On today’s episode, we talk with Meghan O’Toole, who’s creativity and collection of actors help create an atmosphere that brings 1880’s Corning to life.

Looking for that perfect fall photo? and vacation?!

With our warm sunny days and cool nights like we have in the Finger Lakes, this tends to bring about the most vibrant colors. We also have rolling hills, sun-dappled gorges and scenic vistas overlooking vineyards and long slender lakes, framed by all that remarkable color: the oranges and reds, yellows and golds.

The opportunity for breathtaking photographs abounds along the many hiking trails, scenic byways, and small towns nestled among the foothills.

We’re talking about Black Sheep Distillery, a relatively new endeavor by Dean and Kim Massaro that embraces the idea of being different.

Episode 7 is out! Making Connections Through Art!

This week Amy Ruza from The Rockwell Museum along with muralist, artist and teacher Alice Mizrachi from Queens, NY stop by the What the FLX studio to discuss art. Not just world-renowned exhibits found at traditional institutions like museums, but public art which often offers a more direct and intimate connection between the artist and the community. And, in the case of The Rockwell’s Alley Art Project, public art is also a unique chance for local students to engage with their community, with other artists, and with themselves in ways they would never otherwise know.

Listen to the episode >>> https://exploresteuben.com/what-the-flx-podcast/

The 2024 Alley Art Project is supported in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, The Triangle Fund, and the Community Foundation of Elmira-Corning and the Finger Lakes, Inc. Learn more here >>> https://rockwellmuseum.org/exhibitions-collections/exhibits-collections/hslc-alleyart-2024/
