Dobbs Ferry Insider: Dobbs Ferry: The Donald Gallery Presents "Days Like This", an Exhibit by Raine Gifford.

Dobbs Ferry, NY - Jan. 10…The Donald Gallery is pleased to announce that it is hosting a one-month, solo-artist show featuring the works of Hastings-on-Hudson artist Raine Gifford. The exhibit, "Days Like This", will be shown from Sunday, January 15, 2023 to Sunday, February 26 from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the South Presbyterian Church at 343 Broadway in Dobbs Ferry, NY. 

 

“The pieces in this collection of work - watercolor and acrylic - explore an evolving theme related to found moments in time and space,” Ms. Gifford said. “These moments represent aspects of strength, solace, reverie, and reprieve. They express something of the balance between internal and external space; inside the self, and outside among the natural world - especially the garden. Some of the work is inspired directly by observed still life or prompts; some by memory as well as by surprises of medium and process.” 

 

"The Donald Gallery is honored to offer Raine Gifford her first solo show as an artist,” said The Donald Gallery Curator Donna Thompson. “Raine's work is such a delight to the senses on many levels. Her subtle use of color and mastery of watercolors, her connection to plants and the sacredness of nature is a gift, especially during the long, bleak winter months. Her exhibition is an offering of hopeful reminders that spring will return."

 

Dobbs Ferry Insider: Westchester County Legislator Mary Jane Shimsky 12th District: Mobile Shredder is coming to Dobbs Ferry - Thursday, 7/28.

 

Mobile Shredder is coming to the Dobbs Ferry Waterfront, 11 Station Plaza

​Thursday, July 28 from 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

Residents can bring up to 4 file-size (10”x12”x15”) boxes of confidential papers per household for shredding.  Please remove all large binder clips and covers.  Papers from businesses, institutions or commercial enterprises are not acceptable and will be rejected, as will any junk mail or newspapers.

First come, first served
Service at the events works on a first-come-first-served basis, as the Mobile Shredder unit can reach its maximum capacity before closing time. In extreme weather, events may be cancelled or terminated early.

Please call the county's Recycling Helpline at (914) 813-5425 to check on a cancellation or early closure.

Important information
It is important to be aware of what you place the paper to be shredded – no matches, lighters or anything combustible. Staff at the events will be checking the material prior to being shredded.

Kinds of documents to shred
Remember, it's best to shred documents you're no longer using, that contain personal identifying information such as name, address, phone number, credit card number or social security number. Such documents should be shredded before they are thrown out for recycling. Some examples are:

• expired credit card statements and receipts
• old tax returns or any other personal documents containing you name, address or other identifying information.
• pre-approved credit card applications
• licenses

As this service is gaining in popularity, residents should be prepared to wait as lines are sometimes long. However, the wait doesn't have to be that long. Come prepared. This means you've removed all metal clips, fasteners, binders, folders and hard covers and placed the papers loosely in a box. Hard covers – cardboard or plastic covers on items such as ledger books, marble composition books and hard-cover books – cannot be shredded and will be turned away. Residents must rip pages out from hard cover books for shredding and throw the covers in their regular household trash. Up to four boxes of papers are allowed for shredding.

For more information about identity theft, call the Dept. of Consumer Protection (914) 995-2155. For questions about recycling, call (914) 813-5425, the Recycling Helpline.
