Title A name given to the resource Mandala With Links Description An account of the resource Repeating design is roughly based upon a hexagon, with wedge-shaped objects at the vertices and a distinctive geometric pattern along each edge. At one vertex is a radiant heart with "I Love Pati" inscribed inside, and attached to the other elements by a pair of chains. That representational element echoes the link-shaped design around a perimeter. One interpretation might be that a migrant farmworker's heart still is attached to a person back home.

Title A name given to the resource New Deal Gallery Description An account of the resource This collection of more than 200 paintings owes its existence to two primary causes: allocations from the Federal Art Project to a New York state tuberculosis sanatorium located at Mt. Morris--the landscapes and still lifes were thought to be restful--and to the committed volunteers who helped preserve the paintings after the hospital closed. For several decades the canvases were stored in non-climate-controlled basements; it appears that doctors and staff removed at least three dozen works as "keepsakes." Despite the seeming tranquility of the paintings, they were created by artists primarily from New York City whose background was more political and aesthetically adventurous than this rural location would indicate. <a href="https://openvalley.org/exhibits/show/green-new-deal/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Follow this hyperlink to a short introduction to the New Deal Gallery collection</a>. We're grateful to the Genesee Valley Council on the Arts for access to their collection, which has been re-photographed and appears here at two resolutions: a cropped, web-friendly file size of around 1 MB; and a high-resolution file including the painting's frame. Items in this collection were created according to a consistent format: a short description of each painting in formal terms, followed by a biography of each artist. Where possible we have supplied hyperlinks relevant to their lives and to other examples of their art.

Description An account of the resource This collection gathers documents for a Perry Knitting Co. exhibit on OpenValley. They are drawn from from three main sources. First, the Clark Rice Photography Collection at the Perry, NY Public Library. Rice was a prolific photographer in Western New York throughout the mid-20th century. This collection includes scans of his work, and copies of images from the turn of the century photographer Merrium Crocker, whose studio Rice purchased. Secondly, the Henry Page Local History Files. Page was president of First National Bank of Perry, and a local historian associated with the public library for nearly five decades. His uncle, William, had helped secure funding from the Carnegie Corporation for its establishment in 1900 and construction in 1914. The Page collection contains various historical materials and photographs accumulated by him over the years. Thirdly, we draw upon various public domain texts, such as maps from the Library of Congress or <a href="http://perrypubliclibrary.advantage-preservation.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">digitized articles from local newspapers</a>.

Title A name given to the resource Mannequins on a Carousel Description An account of the resource An open house held at the Perry Knitting Co. in May 1953 sought to balance a demonstration of the plant's manufacturing, an appeal to possible employees, and a promotion of PKC's main product: Nitey Nite sleepwear. Here we see mannequins attired in the pajamas on a miniature carousel; dolls for sale appear to intrigue a young visitor. The Rice Collection annotation reads: "A carousel set up to demonstrate the Nitey Nite products, along with the dolls that were sold. I think the dolls were $2.98."
