Finger Lakes Events Calendar

Festivals, Happy Hour, Live Music, Theatre, and More!

It doesn’t matter what your interests are or who you’re in the Finger Lakes with, you can always find a great event to enrich your time in the region with those you care about. 

Events take place all year round in the Finger Lakes region. From lakeside (and on the lake) events in the summer to harvest activities in the fall, snowmobiling or snowshoeing in the winter, and festivals in the springtime! Step inside a glassmaker’s studio to blow your own glass, stroll Main Street on a food tour, or gather for live music and theater performances. Browse the list of Finger Lakes events below or search the specific dates you will be visiting to see everything going on in the region.

Great Events that Happen Every Year

Below, you will find dozens of great events happening throughout the year with many of them happening annually. If you have memories of favorite annual Finger Lakes events from childhood such as cardboard boat regattas, hot air balloon festivals, cheese, apple or pumpkin festivals, to name a few, it’s likely that event that still takes place or, has likely improved your enjoyment. If you see a special event that piques your interest but can’t make it, click on the event anyway, it might be coming back next year!

Events Added Daily

Make sure to check back frequently to see if any other great events have been added. Events are added daily by businesses from every sector and interest so if there is nothing that sparks your interest now, there very well could be soon!

Finger Lakes State Parks Invite You to Kick Off 2019 with a FIRST DAY HIKE!

Kick off the New Year in the outdoors with a First Day Hike on January 1, 2019!

Join one of the more than 75 sponsored hikes being held at state parks, historic sites, wildlife areas and trails across the Empire State. The guided hikes are being hosted by New York State Parks and the state Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) as part of the 8th annual First Day Hikes program taking place throughout the nation.

In NY, First Day Hikes are being offered at 51 state parks and historic sites (with some facilities offering multiple hikes for different age groups, skill level and destinations within the park) and 19 DEC wildlife areas, trails and environmental educations centers. Staff from State Parks and DEC, along with volunteers at many sites, will lead these family-friendly walks and hikes, which range from one to five miles depending on the location and conditions.

A sample of this year’s programs include a seal walk, a walking history tour, a snowshoe waterfall hike, pet-friendly treks, gorge walks, military musicology, canal towpath walk, and more. New entries for 2019 include hikes along Lake Ontario, Delta Lake, and Lake Champlain, and recently added trails at Overlook Mountain in Woodstock.

If weather conditions permit, some First Day Hikes may include snowshoeing or cross-country skiing. The map below includes the full event locations and details. Many of the hikes are also featured in our First Day Hikes event list.

Many host parks require pre-registration so call ahead. And if you attend, be sure to tag us on social #nystateparks.

crossing delancey
Crossing Delancey at the George Eastman Museum

Sophisticated, single New Yorker Izzy Grossman (Amy Irving) has left behind the “old ways” of her Jewish heritage. Working at a Manhattan bookshop organizing prestigious author readings, she revels in the society of the literati. Her Upper West Side life clashes with her Lower East Side upbringing, however, when her grandmother (Reizl Bozyk) enlists a matchmaker to set her up with the man who runs the pickle shop, Sam Posner (Peter Riegert). Crossing Delancey not only portrays the tension between modernity and tradition, but also paints a rich picture of New York’s diverse splendor in the late 1980s.

WE SHALL OVERCOME – A Celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. featuring Damien Sneed

Clemens Center presents
WE SHALL OVERCOME – A Celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. featuring Damien Sneed
Joined by Local Choral Groups

Inspired by the words and action of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., “We Shall Overcome” showcases repertoire from across the African American music traditions that electrified generations of civil rights activists and defenders with interwoven spoken word from Dr. King’s recorded speeches.

This production ties together a living lineage of music and culture that includes traditional gospel, modern gospel, classical, jazz, Broadway and spirituals. From Aretha Franklin, to Wynton Marsalis; Duke Ellington to Stevie Wonder; Nina Simone to Donny Hathaway; and traditional spirituals and music from “the Wiz”, Damien’s unique understanding of each genre allows him to fluidly cover so much musical ground in a single performance.

ONE NIGHT ONLY! Master Mentalist ERIK DOBELL at Keuka Candy Emporium in Penn Yan!

Start the New Year with a Little Magic!
Master Mentalist ERIK DOBELL will appear ONE NIGHT ONLY!

The Master Mentalist Erik Dobell will be doing a rare public performance in Penn Yan at the Keuka Candy Emporium on Saturday January 12th!

Don't hesitate! This is a small venue and you do NOT want to miss this rare performance by one of the nation's top performers of the Magical Arts!

SEATING IS EXTREMELY LIMITED - ORDER TICKETS ON LINE TO AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT

Tickets are available at this link: https://magicpy.brownpapertickets.com/

Tennessee-based mentalist, magician and master performer Erik Dobell is originally from the Finger Lakes area but performs around the country as a professional entertainer. His past clients included Macy's, Goodyear and the NFL.

What can you expect?  Erik explains:  If you don't know what a Mentalist is, you're not alone. Mentalism is a branch of magic that deals with the mind. So instead of sawing a woman into halves or making a coin vanish, I read minds and perform other feats normally associated with psychic abilities. I'm not psychic but it's going to look and feel as if I am.  Although I'm primarily a Mentalist, I also mix a little bit of traditional magic in my performances as well. My goal is to perform strong, unbelievable magic in a fun and whimsical way.

jazz singer
The Jazz Singer at the George Eastman Museum

Best known as the first hit feature-length “talkie” with a synchronized music score, singing, and speech, this film is also a rarity in early Hollywood—it features a Jewish protagonist. Al Jolson stars as Jakie Rabinowitz, a young man who runs away from his devout family because they reject his desire to perform popular music. He becomes a successful jazz singer under the name Jack Robin, but he longs for reconciliation. It has been argued that Jolson’s controversial performance in blackface—a common practice at the time—symbolizes and complicates the central theme of a Jewish man presenting himself as a white gentile, pointing to the “duplicity and ethnic hybridity within American identity.” The film was nominated for an Oscar for Best Writing at the first Academy Awards in 1929.

Meet Me at the Museum
Meet Me at the Museum

The Rockwell Museum and Corning Museum of Glass, along with the Memory Maker Project, will be teaming up again for the 2018-2019 year to offer the Meet Me at the Museum program, a collaboration with the Alzheimer’s Association. This monthly, interactive tour series is designed specifically for persons with dementia and their care partners, using art and conversation as a catalyst for meaningful connections.

This month, join us for an afternoon of discussion and art-making focused on Jaune Quick-To-See-Smith’s collage piece,  NDN (for life). We will discuss how Smith layers her artwork with symbols and explores how familiar objects, such as clothing, are filled with meaning about identity. 

Following our gallery discussion, guests will participate in a collage activity exploring personal symbolism. The afternoon will conclude with light refreshments.

Meet Me at the Museum is a free program held on the second Monday of each month; registration is strongly encouraged – please contact the Alzheimer’s Association by calling 800.272.3900. We look forward to making memories with you!

broadway danny rose
Broadway Danny Rose at the George Eastman Museum

In a film that exults in the tradition of Jewish storytelling, Woody Allen added an extra air of authenticity by casting several revered comics, his own manager, and the owner of the Carnegie Deli as themselves. Danny Rose (Allen) is a dedicated and hapless talent agent who represents a washed-up lounge singer, Lou Canova (Nick Apollo Forte), who is finally making a comeback. Lou convinces Danny to accompany his mistress, Tina Vitale (Mia Farrow), as her beard at an important gig so she can attend without raising the suspicions of his wife. After Tina’s jealous ex-boyfriend mistakes Danny for her real boyfriend, trouble ensues. Roger Ebert praised the performances of the three main actors as “wonderfully off-the-wall characterizations” in one of Woody Allen’s best comedies of errors.

In the Line of Sight: Art, Privacy and Surveillance
In the Line of Sight: Art, Privacy and Surveillance at The Rockwell Museum

Lecture by Randolph Lewis, Professor at The University of Texas at Austin and Accomplished Author

Not too long ago, many Americans assumed that surveillance was something for criminals and spies to worry about, not ordinary people. But it’s fast becoming something that everyone has to confront in their daily life. After all, how do make sense of endless security cameras, TSA scanners, drones in our skies and Big Data analytics? What does it mean when Silicon Valley executives announce that “privacy is dead”? How should we feel about the fact that powerful surveillance technologies probably know more about our intimate lives than our friends and family? 

While law professors, philosophers, and other scholars have tried to answer these important questions, some of the most interesting responses have come from contemporary visual artists. Banksy and many lesser known street artists have mocked the authoritarian nature of CCTV cameras with brilliant populist commentary. Artist and geographer Trevor Paglen has been searching for the so-called “Blank Spots on the Map” that reveal what governments hide from their citizens, even as it increases its scrutiny of our private lives. And photographers such as Arne Svenson have taken surreptitious images of people sleeping in high rise apartments without their knowledge. Although it’s not illegal to look into windows in New York City, what about when you’re making a photograph that will be widely viewed in galleries and online? What are the ethics of making art in the age of ubiquitous surveillance? This lecture will explore such questions from a broad, humanistic perspective. 

Lunchtime Lecture -- History of the Camillus Erie Canal Park

Nestled between Nine Mile Creek and a wooded hillside near Camillus, New York is the Camillus Erie Canal Park. The park was founded in 1972 by Elizabeth and Dr. David Beebe, whose dedication to Canal heritage preserved a stretch of the 19th century Erie Canal and its Nine Mile Creek aqueduct, We're proud to host Liz and Dave as the first speakers in the Peggy Lou Feldmeier Lunchtime Lecture Series at the Museum. They will discuss current activities at this historic location and talk about their many achievements at the site, including restoration of the aqueduct. The program will take place at the Museum, 318 Erie Boulevard East, downtown Syracuse. Admission is $5 for the general public, and there is no charge for Erie Canal Museum members. You can purchase tickets here.

The lecture will include time for questions, and free parking is available in Museum-designated spots in the lot across the street under routes 81 and 690. Email outreach@eriecanalmuseum.org if you have any questions. We look forward to seeing you at this fascinating presentation!

‘Chicago’ still GLITTERS HYPNOTICALLY.” – Ben Brantley, The New York Times

There’s never been a better time to experience CHICAGO, Broadway’s razzle-dazzle smash. This triumphant hit musical is the recipient of six Tony Awards®, two Olivier Awards, a Grammy®, thousands of standing ovations and now the #1 longestrunning American Musical in Broadway history. CHICAGO has everything that makes Broadway great: a universal tale of fame, fortune and all that jazz; one show-stopping song after another; and the most astonishing dancing you’ve ever seen. Whether you’re looking for your first Broadway musical, whether you’ve seen the Academy Award® winning film and want to experience the show live on stage or whether you’ve seen it before and want to recapture the magic, CHICAGO always delivers!

Nathan Lyons: In Pursuit of Magic

Through his writings, curatorial practice, teaching, photographs, and photobooks, Nathan Lyons (1930-2016) had a tremendous impact on the history and practice of photography for more than sixty years. His work as a writer and curator has been widely celebrated, but his own art is less well known, despite its formal acuity and conceptual rigor. Nathan Lyons: In Pursuit of Magic demonstrates that he practiced what he preached—not only in the black-and-white images he sequenced and reproduced in his photobooks, but also in his final body of work. These last photographs, created in the decade before he died, are color images made with a digital camera and presented as inkjet prints. This exhibition represents the public’s first opportunity to see that work in tandem with selected photographs from his earlier bodies of work.

One of the primary features of Lyons’s work is his use of juxtapositions and sequencing as a core tenet of visual language, and he strongly believed in visual literacy as the key to navigating modern social life. His color work brings his vision full circle, providing a platform for discussion about the overwhelming presence of images and advertising in contemporary life. Nathan Lyons: In Pursuit of Magic details his vision and demonstrates its relevance for a new, visually sophisticated audience.

The George Eastman Museum has invited Nate Larson (American, b. 1978) and Marni Shindelman (American, b. 1977) to create a body of work specific to Rochester, New York. The artists, who work collectively as Larson Shindelman, are known for their series Geolocation, which transforms ephemeral bits of data into photographs and immersive installations. In this series, they use publicly available GPS information embedded in social media to track the location of user posts and then travel to the location to create a photograph that both marks the physical place and reacts to the content of the original post. Their work prompts discussions about social media, public and private information, and social issues surrounding race relations, gun violence, and the right to protest.

For this exhibition, Larson Shindelman have addedd to their Geolocation photographs by drawing from trending hashtags in Rochester to identify themes relevant to the community. They visited Rochester in the summer of 2018, creating the new body of work that will be displayed. This new work furthers their examination of how smartphones have contributed to a new era of social justice, including citizen journalism, information sharing, and community protest by exploring themes of racial discrimination, violence, right to protest, gun violence, police relations, political activism, and other social concerns.

Artists Nate Larson and Marni Shindelman in Rochester to speak about their work

Conversation with the Artists: Nate Larson and Marni Shindelman

Thursday, January 31, 6 p.m., Dryden Theatre

Nate Larson and Marni Shindelman and George Eastman Museum associate curator Jamie M. Allen will have a conversation about the exhibition #LarsonShindelman #Mobilize as well as the artists’ project working with youth from the Out Alliance. Free to members, $10 general, and $5 students.

#LarsonShindelman #Mobilize is the culmination of new work by the artists, who work collectively as Larson Shindelman. The photographs are an extension of their ongoing series Geolocation, which in which they use data to create photographs and immersive installations related to social issues relevant in cities across the United States.

Larson Shindelman traveled to Rochester in July 2018 to create new work for Geolocation. Working with the DOLLY (Digital OnLine Life and You) Project, a research lab at the University of Kentucky, Larson Shindelman were able to source publicly available data from Twitter that showed trends in the use of specific hashtags, such as #BlackLivesMatter, in Rochester. They used the GPS information embedded in the social media posts to return to the sites where these public statements were made. They then documented each location with photographs. After carefully editing and selecting one picture to represent each location, they digitally added the text from the original tweets to the image. These works examine how smartphones have contributed to new ways of expressing oneself in public and a new era of social justice.

“This new work by Larson Shindelman underscores the power of social media as a way to assert one’s identity, call out media bias, and create new forms of protest,” said Jamie M. Allen, the Stephen B. and Janice G. Ashley Associate Curator, Department of Photography. “In their art, Larson Shindelman transform ephemeral bits of data into works that prompt discussions about public and private information, as well as social issues surrounding a citizen’s right to protest, gun violence, and discrimination based on race, gender, and/or sexual orientation. The final works tell a larger story about mass communication in relation to protest movements and racial politics in contemporary American society.”

The exhibition also includes an installation consisting of photographs the artists selected from public Twitter, Instagram, and Tumblr posts tagged with #IfTheyGunnedMeDown. This hashtag began trending just after Michael Brown was killed in Ferguson, Missouri, in 2014.
