Beacon Queer and Trans Liberation March
Day:
June 12, 2021
Time: 2pm - 4pm
Location: Meet at Memorial Park (Beacon NY)
Organized "in response to ongoing harassment of queer and trans people in Beacon and our supporters, will gather at Memorial Park on Saturday, June 12 at 2 PM and march to Polhill Park, where we will hold a speakout," explained one of the organizers, local artist and victim of harassment, Donna Minkowitz. Beacon neighbor Richard (Dick) Murphy has proudly sent anti-gay letters to his neighbors who hang Pride flags outside of their homes, including Donna, which ALBB wrote about last year. Later in December 2020, Donna told the Highlands Current that "a creepy three-foot long doll was left staked into my lawn," and others have reported the letters arriving again in 2021. Separately, during a Beacon City Council Meeting, a regular citizen participant, Stash Yankowski, called in with his request to bar trans women and girls from girls’ and women’s sports. He was cut off by City Councilmember Amber Grant in an unusual act of interruption.

The organizers announce: "Families with young children or anyone for whom marching may present a difficulty are invited to gather at Polhill Park at 2 PM and greet the march as it arrives! There will be sign-making tables at Polhill for families with children that would like to make signs for the march. The tables are staffed by Compass Arts and Fareground. That activity will start at 2 PM. Any adults for whom marching may be difficult are also invited to gather at Polhill Park and await the main march. The route taken by the march is not public.

Beacon's City Wide Yard Sale
Day: Saturday, June 12, 2021
Time: 9am-3pm
Location: Beacon, NY
IT'S HERE!!! Here's The List
Beacon's City Wide Yard Sale! The list of the registered yard sales is here, and the Google Map is here, provided by the Beacon Recreation Department. Didn't register in time? Fear not! Set up shop in your yard! A reader wrote in with this question, and ALBB doesn't think you need a permit for a yard sale (you don't, right?!) and we emailed the City Administrator and the Beacon Recreation for conformation, but didn't hear back as of this publishing. Alas, maybe it went to spam. Send ALBB pics of treasures you find while you're out and about!

BAU Gallery Solo Shows: Daniel Berlin's 'Recognition' & Diana Vidal's 'Strange Invention'
Day:
June 12, 2021
Time: 12 pm - 6 pm
Location: 508 Main Street, Beacon, 12508
Daniel Berlin’s second solo exhibition at BAU, “Recognition”, consists primarily of watercolor and painting. The title references the instant in the creative process when contact is made. The moment when this poetic flash is recognized can be fleeting or elastic. Even so, it reveals a natural juncture that can connect the artist, the art, and the viewer. It is a fertile crossroad and reflects the essence of the aesthetic transaction.
Diana Vidal's 'Strange Invention' is an exhibition exploring the influence of time and light on a photograph. The use of 35mm film makes each photograph unique, a perfect document of a fleeting moment in time. Documenting these instances ensures that the sublime, which manifests itself every day, is captured in perpetuity and can be experienced over and over again.

Yanarella has been guiding and instructing students since 1957, over 60 years ago, under the direction of CarolAnn Yanarella Miller. For 38 years she passed on her love and wisdom to thousands of students, including Angela Van Vlack. In 1996, CarolAnn stepped down and passed the privilege of nurturing students to Angela and she became the current owner and director of Yanarella School of Dance. The director may have changed, but the principles have not. Since the day they opened their doors, their philosophy has been that “every child should have the same opportunity to dance, regardless of talent or ability. There is no can’t in dance. There’s only a C-A-N”.
Register for classes today!

Cyber security is all over the news right now. Antalek & Moore created a few tips for you:

"We are exposed to more information now than ever before, and in turn, our information is exposed to others more than ever. Regardless of your internet use, here are 5 tips to better ensure your personal information stays confidential.

1) Tricky Passwords: Today, many sites require certain characters and symbols when creating a new password. Follow this method on all platforms. Consider using uppercase letters, symbols and making your passwords different across your platforms.

2) Safe Clicking: Be wary of clicking on attachments or links in emails and other instant messages. If there’s any suspicion surrounding them, it’s best not to click to avoid scams and viruses.

3) Backing UP: Since computers, today have a wealth of personal information, as well as memories stored on them, consider backing up this data onto an external hard drive.

4) Protect Sensitive Information: Avoid keeping sensitive personal information on your laptops, work computers, and mobile devices.

5) Anti-Virus Protection: Only install an anti-virus program from a known and trusted source. (Norton, McAfee, etc.) a computer program used to prevent, detect, and remove malware."
