(TOMPKINS COUNTY, NY) Today, Senator Webb (SD52) held a press conference to announce that she has secured $70,000 in state funds to support the work of local organizations providing education programs. This funding is part of over $200,000 in operational grants that Senator Webb has secured for education programs and libraries in Senate District 52.
$25,000 to Coddington Road Center to provide direct administrative support to their staff, purchase vital childcare equipment, and fund additional materials and supplies for their organization.
$20,000 to the Greater Ithaca Activities Center to purchase a 12-passenger van to enhance daily programming for teen participants.
$12,500 to The Village at Ithaca in support of their mission to provide marginalized youth and local families with assistance with meeting basic needs, and for educational programming.
$12,500 to East Ithaca Preschool in support of their mission to maintain and expand their center’s educational programming.
Said Senator Lea Webb, “I am thrilled to deliver over $200,000 in state funds to support local organizations working to educate our youth including $70,000 to local organizations here in Tompkins County. We are fortunate to have so many organizations in the Southern Tier doing important work to educate youth and support families. I am proud that I was able to secure these additional resources for our local organizations so that they can continue to offer critical services to our community. Last year, I fought to fully fund Foundation Aid in the state budget and to ensure that every child could access free school meals. I will continue to fight for additional funding for education in the upcoming legislative session.”
“Coddington Road Community Center is thrilled to be a recipient of $25,000 in educational funding,” said Heather Mount, Executive Director of Coddington Road Center. “Annually our center provides approximately $65,000 in scholarships to assist families with the expense of childcare. Funding like this from Senator Webb ensures that we will not have to place a limit on the number of scholarships we offer while also maintaining our ability to purchase the resources and materials needed for our childcare and youth programs.”
“With the right and adequate resources, we know that young people will thrive,” said Leslyn McBean Clairborne Ed.D, Executive Director of the Greater Ithaca Activities Center. “This funding will help us provide the transportation our teens need to access resources for their success. Thanks, Senator Webb, for believing in the power of young people and the energy of our GIAC community to help them succeed.”
“The Village at Ithaca is a youth and family-centered organization in Tompkins County that addresses systemic injustice through responsive anti-racist programming and services to build an equitable and inclusive community,” said Meryl Phipps, Executive Director of The Village at Ithaca. “We are so grateful to Senator Webb for securing this funding, which will allow us to continue to work towards our vision of a community where all youth and families are seen, heard, valued and thriving.”
Said Suzanne Foot, Executive Director of the East Ithaca Preschool, “Thank you to Senator Webb for granting this funding for our great school! EIP, which will celebrate our centennial on June 2nd 2024, is the oldest cooperative preschool in the nation and has served as a role model in shaping preschools and education across the country. We will be using much of the grant money to acquire new playground equipment, offer scholarships to families in need, and hire a full-time aide in the classroom.”

Secure the Bag, Mint the Soaps and Throw the Bones is a site of exchange that aims to recontextualize the intricate histories of the brown paper bag and Hispano cuaba soap while inviting the audience to play a game of dominoes. This is based on the artist’s ongoing examination of these items found in private and domestic settings. Nonetheless, their combined racialized, colonial and social complexity reverberates in the customs and dynamics of collective space within a black diasporic subjectivity and imagination.

Heading closer to the centre of town. Check out the gates, the electric wire on the walls and the armed response signs
There's a small box outside of this entrance that asks you to put the contents of you pocket in it.
Must be some big stuff going down on the other side.

Securing the sticks to Bud's front rod rack. The temperature has continued to drop and by now it is in the low 40s. With the wind chill, it feels more like the 30s. Dang, it's cold!!

Two young children stand bathed in the harsh, golden sunlight of the Argentine arid landscape, their intense gazes piercing directly through the camera lens. The boy, positioned slightly behind and to the left, wears a textured blue and grey knitted sweater that catches the bright, directional light, highlighting the dust resting on its fibers. In the foreground, the young girl features tightly woven dark braids secured with bright pink floral hair ties, contrasting sharply with her light blue fleece jacket. The intense, high-contrast sunlight casts deep, dramatic shadows across their youthful faces, accentuating their striking indigenous features and the raw resilience etched into their expressions. Behind them, massive, serrated leaves of wild agave plants dominate the background, their muted, dusty green tones providing an organic, textured backdrop. A shallow depth of field is masterfully employed to keep the children in sharp, arresting focus while gently softening the imposing desert flora behind them. This intimate portrait captures the essence of rural Andean life in Argentina, reflecting a profound connection between the inhabitants and their rugged, demanding environment. Their unblinking stares offer an unfiltered, authentic glimpse into a childhood deeply rooted in the traditional rhythms of the high-altitude terrain. The interplay of light and shadow not only defines their physical forms but also adds a layer of quiet solemnity to the composition. It is a powerful photographic testament to the quiet strength and compelling presence of the region's indigenous youth. This image is a collaborative production by Samuel Jeffery and Audrey Bergner for Project 23.

Dos niños pequeños se erigen bañados por la dura y dorada luz del sol del árido paisaje argentino, con sus intensas miradas penetrando directamente a través del lente de la cámara. El niño, posicionado un poco detrás y a la izquierda, viste un suéter tejido con textura en tonos azul y gris que atrapa la luz direccional y brillante, resaltando el polvo que descansa sobre sus fibras. En primer plano, la niña presenta trenzas oscuras y apretadas aseguradas con lazos florales de un rosa brillante, que contrastan fuertemente con su chaqueta de lana celeste. La intensa luz solar de alto contraste proyecta sombras profundas y dramáticas sobre sus rostros juveniles, acentuando sus llamativos rasgos indígenas y la cruda resiliencia grabada en sus expresiones. Detrás de ellos, las hojas masivas y aserradas de las plantas de agave silvestre dominan el fondo, y sus tonos verdes apagados y polvorientos proporcionan un telón de fondo orgánico y texturizado. Se emplea magistralmente una profundidad de campo reducida para mantener a los niños en un enfoque nítido y cautivador, mientras se suaviza suavemente la imponente flora del desierto detrás de ellos. Este retrato íntimo captura la esencia de la vida rural andina en Argentina, reflejando una profunda conexión entre los habitantes y su entorno accidentado y exigente. Sus miradas sin pestañear ofrecen un vistazo auténtico y sin filtros a una infancia profundamente arraigada en los ritmos tradicionales del terreno de gran altitud. La interacción de luces y sombras no solo define sus formas físicas, sino que también añade una capa de silenciosa solemnidad a la composición. Es un poderoso testimonio fotográfico de la fuerza tranquila y la presencia cautivadora de la juventud indígena de la región. Esta imagen es una producción colaborativa de Samuel Jeffery y Audrey Bergner para el Proyecto 23.

I noticed this beautifully carved door at Lahore Fort (Diwan-e-Khaas), but what really caught my attention was the chain lock chipping the wood away… 400 years of history is lost forever!
