Hello, r/Syracuse! Fair kicks off this week. You already know what that means, 12 days of butter sculptures, milk bar, questionable rides, and free concerts. The Great New York State Fair opens Wednesday. Flo Rida, Third Eye Blind, Gym Class Heroes, Sean Paul, Melissa Etheridge, Air Supply, and Brandy Clark. All at the Fair. All free with admission. All this week. If the Fair isn't your thing, do not worry, we still have you. Consider this your annual reminder to avoid I-690 westbound starting Wednesday. Plus Attilio's is taking over Strada Mia's Geddes Street building, Dear Dad opening in the old Arad Evans Inn, and Sharon Owens closing in on the city's first Night Mayor.

Syracuse History

Local Artist Spotlight

Jeremy Randall has been making studio ceramics since 2005. He grew up in Syracuse, picked up clay his sophomore year of high school, earned a BFA in ceramics from SU in 2000, apprenticed under David Gil at Bennington Potters, then got his MFA from University of Florida. He came back to Central New York to teach at SU and Cazenovia College and started working out of his house. In 2013 he opened his first brick-and-mortar studio, which eventually grew into Papavero Clay Studio, now in a much larger location in Skaneateles.

Papavero offers 8-week classes, open studio time, wheel throwing sessions, private group workshops, and specialized events. Fall classes are open now, which makes this the natural moment to try clay for the first time. Follow Jeremy's work on Instagram at u/randallceramics.

Note: I'm trying to keep this list contained within an hour drive of Clinton Square. For the websites, I tried to link directly to calendars where I could. Also, there are quite a few festivals and major events that may not be listed here. I'll be updating as the weeks go on (lots of festivals aren't fully scheduled out until a few months in advance). Feel free to drop suggestions, additions, omissions and updates into the comments.
