But after ten years in bucolic Sycamore Glen\, Sloane has yet to find someone to call a true friend. Until Harper and Ben Wilson move in next door. \nHarper is open\, charismatic\, and restless. She and Sloane quickly become confidantes and fall into a deep and intoxicating friendship. Then one afternoon\, Daisy’s dependable babysitter\, Margaret\, fails to show. When texts from Margaret’s mother and boyfriend go unanswered\, the inexplicable disappearance becomes a cause for alarm. \nAs anxious hours turn into days\, suspicion grows. And tension tightens. As if something is about to snap. When it does\, long-held secrets are revealed\, and not everyone in Sycamore Glen is who they seem to be. \n  \nAbout the Author \nKatie Sise is the bestselling author of The Vacation Rental\, The Break\, Open House\, and We Were Mothers.

SUMMARY:Submissions: Yellow Studio Juried Member Show
DESCRIPTION:Title: Between Here and There \nTheme: Belonging \nJuror: Tina Villaveces\, Founder & Director\, Yellow Studio \nThe Gallery at Yellow Studio invites Yellow Studio Artist Members to consider the many dimensions of belonging: the spaces we claim and those that exclude us; the materials and gestures through which we forge connection; the tension between individuality and collectivity; the ways language\, memory\, and culture root us—or unsettle us. Belonging may manifest as comfort or conflict\, as intimacy or distance\, as visibility or erasure. \nBelonging is both a condition and a question. It describes our ties to place\, community\, and history\, while also exposing the fragility of those bonds. In a world marked by migration\, displacement\, cultural hybridity\, and shifting identities\, belonging becomes less a fixed state than a process\, something continually negotiated\, reimagined\, and reshaped. \nArtists working across all media are encouraged to submit works that explore how belonging is constructed\, disrupted\, or reinvented\, and what it means to find\, or make\, one’s place in the world. \nSubmitting Arists must be Yellow Studio Artist Members (or Supporter Members who are practicing Artists). \nNot a Member\, but want to join? Read more and become an Artist Member here. \n\n\n\nFrom Saturday November 22 to Saturday December 20\, The Gallery at Yellow Studio will present our Juried Member Show\, Between Here and There.

SUMMARY:SPARK Your Life: Story Medicine for Modern Women with Tambra McCarthy
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \nA 3-Part Transformational Workshop Series  \nWe all carry stories. Some have shaped us. Others have caused us to dim our light\, or no longer fit. But now—you’re ready to reclaim your voice\, reconnect with your truth\, and ignite your next chapter. And the Fall season is the perfect time to shed. \nSPARK Your Life is a 3-week immersive experience for women ready to rise from the inside out. Through sacred storytelling\, mindfulness practices\, and creative expression\, you’ll be guided to release what no longer serves you—and step fully into the woman you are. \nEach 90-minute session blends guided breathwork + meditation\, reflective journaling\, and embodied writing/creating\, inviting you to explore the stories that live within your body and your voice. Through poetry\, monologue\, song\, artwork—even painting or movement—you’ll begin to reshape outdated narratives and reconnect with your inner fire. \nSpace is limited to 12 attendees.  \nThe Journey Unfolds Across Three Transformational Sessions:\nWeek 1: Uncover the Stories You Carry (Wednesday October 8)\nWe begin by creating a safe\, sacred space for self-expression and curiosity. Together we’ll explore the unconscious narratives that have shaped your identity—stories passed down\, picked up\, or held quietly for years. Through mindfulness and creative prompts\, you’ll begin to unravel what’s yours to keep\, and what’s ready to be released. \nFocus: Awareness\, clarity\, compassion\, community. \nWeek 2: Reclaim Your Voice\, Rewrite the Narrative (Wednesday October 15)\nThis week\, you’ll be guided through deeper embodiment practices—breath\, visualization\, intuitive writing—and creative rituals to reclaim your voice and reshape your story. You’ll meet your Wise Woman Within and begin to express yourself freely\, whether through words\, movement\, or creative form. \nFocus: Empowerment\, reframing\, self-expression\, authenticity. \nWeek 3: Embody & Share Your Truth in Sacred Circle (Wednesday October 22)\nOur final session is a powerful witnessing circle. In a supportive space\, you’ll have the opportunity to share a personal piece you’ve created—spoken\, sung\, written\, or visual. You’ll be seen\, celebrated\, and held as you step into your story not just as a narrator\, but as its author and embodiment. \nFocus: Integration\, visibility\, embodiment\, sacred community. \nWhat You’ll Experience:\n\nBreathwork\, grounding\, and visualization to quiet the mind and access inner wisdom\nJournaling and creative prompts to move your story from body to page or whatever form of self-expression you choose\nOpportunities to express through poetry\, painting\, monologue\, or music—no experience required\nA closing storytelling circle where you are witnessed and celebrated\nTake-home ritual prompts and a personal affirmation to support continued growth\n\nThis Workshop Series is For You If…\n\nYou’re ready to reconnect with your voice\, your creativity\, and your sacred truth\nYou’ve lived a life in service to\, or pleasing others and now want to come home to yourself\nYou’re navigating change\, transition\, or reinvention and seeking inner clarity\nYou long for a creative\, soulful space to reconnect with your inner fire and like-minded women\n\nYour story is sacred. Your voice is medicine. Your life is your art.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception for Jennie Carr: Scent of the Sea / Profumo del Mare
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \nThe Gallery at Yellow Studio presents Scent of the Sea / Profumo del Mare\, a vibrant collection of paintings and photographs that transports viewers to the sun-drenched coastlines of Italy’s Amalfi Coast. Running from October 18 to November 15\, 2025\, this evocative exhibition presents artist Jennie Carr’s comprehensive love letter to Italy through three distinct artistic approaches: candid street photography\, abstract works on maps and architectural drawings\, and pop art-inspired paintings that celebrate Italian everyday life. Join us for an opening reception on Sunday\, October 19\, from 4 to 6pm. \nScent of the Sea / Profumo del Mare showcases Carr’s ability to find magic in both the monumental and the mundane. Working from her Ridgefield studio\, Cloud Farm Industries\, she transforms everyday Italian experiences into vibrant celebrations of color and memory.

SUMMARY:Book Club: A Marriage at Sea by Sophie Elmhirst
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \nJoin us for Book Club at Bedford Books on Tuesday October 21 at 6:30pm to discuss A Marriage at Sea by Sophie Elmhirst. There will be lively discussion\, questions posed and answered and time to connect with fellow YS Members. \nThis is a zero pressure book club – didn’t quite finish the book? Come anyway. \nHosted by Fran Hauser & Emily Winograd Leonard \nLight refreshments will be available. \nMember RSVP required. \nThis book is available for purchase at Bedford Books! You can also purchase the book online here and have it shipped to you.  \n  \nAbout the Book \nMaurice and Maralyn make an odd couple. He’s a loner\, awkward and obsessive; she’s charismatic and ambitious. But they share a horror of wasting their lives. And they dream – as we all dream – of running away from it all. What if they quit their jobs\, sold their house\, bought a boat\, and sailed away? \nMost of us begin and end with the daydream. But in June 1972\, Maurice and Maralyn set sail. For nearly a year all went well\, until deep in the Pacific\, a breaching whale knocked a hole in their boat and it sank beneath the waves. \nWhat ensues is a jaw-dropping fight to survive in the wild ocean\, with little hope of rescue. Alone together for months in a tiny rubber raft\, starving and exhausted\, Maurice and Maralyn have to find not only ways to stay alive but ways to get along\, as their inner demons emerge and their marriage is put to the greatest of tests. Although they could run away from the world\, they can’t run away from themselves. \nTaut\, propulsive\, and dazzling\, A Marriage at Sea pairs an adrenaline-fueled high seas adventure with a gutting love story that asks why we love difficult people\, and who we become under the most extreme conditions imaginable. \n  \nAbout the Author \nSophie Elmhirst is an award-winning journalist who writes regularly for The Guardian Long Read and The Economist; her work has also appeared in The New York Times Magazine\, The New Yorker\, and Harper’s Bazaar\, among other places. She’s the winner of the British Press Award for Feature Writer of the Year and a Foreign Press Award. She lives in London and A Marriage at Sea is her first book. \n  \nLocation: \nBedford Books\n13 Court Rd\nBedford\, NY 10506

SUMMARY:Scent of the Sea / Profumo del Mare Artist Talk: Jennie Carr
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \nJoin us on Saturday November 8 at 2pm to learn more about the artistic practice\, process\, influences and more of Jennie Carr.\n  \nAbout the Exhibition\nThe Gallery at Yellow Studio presents Scent of the Sea / Profumo del Mare\, a vibrant collection of paintings and photographs that transports viewers to the sun-drenched coastlines of Italy’s Amalfi Coast. Running from October 18 to November 15\, 2025\, this evocative exhibition presents artist Jennie Carr’s comprehensive love letter to Italy through three distinct artistic approaches: candid street photography\, abstract works on maps and architectural drawings\, and pop art-inspired paintings that celebrate Italian everyday life.\n \nScent of the Sea / Profumo del Mare showcases Carr’s ability to find magic in both the monumental and the mundane. Working from her Ridgefield studio\, Cloud Farm Industries\, she transforms everyday Italian experiences into vibrant celebrations of color and memory. Her unique approach of painting on found materials creates a dialogue between the structured and the spontaneous\, much like Italy itself. The exhibition invites viewers to breathe in the profumo del mare and experience Italy through Carr’s optimistic lens\, where quiet street corners hold as much beauty as dramatic coastlines\, and the comfort of familiar rituals becomes art worthy of celebration.\n  \n\nAbout the Artist \nJennie Carr creates vibrant acrylic paintings and photography\, celebrating color\, light\, and social commentary through abstract\, pop-inspired\, and figurative styles. Born in New York City and raised in Scarsdale\, New York\, she studied acting in several programs while cultivating her visual art practice as a largely self-taught artist. Carr transitioned to full-time art-making in 2021\, founding Cloud Farm Industries in North Salem\, New York\, and currently works from Ridgefield\, Connecticut. \nEstablishing herself as an actively exhibiting professional artist\, she has recently presented solo exhibitions at Spy Pond Art Gallery\, Newcastle\, Ireland (2023); The Kitchen Table\, Pound Ridge (2024–2025); and Ridgefield Guild of Artists satellite gallery at Jill Rae Designs\, Ridgefield (2025). As a member of the Carriage Barn Arts Center and the Ridgefield Guild of Artists\, she explores themes of social justice and humor\, most notably in her Equality Pin Up Girls series featured in Ms. Magazine. Her paintings and photographs are held in private collections across the United States and Ireland. \n\nPlease RSVP to the Artist Talk below. All are welcome.

SUMMARY:Film Club: Short Films Screening & Discussion
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \nJoin us for the next Film Club meeting on Wednesday November 12 at 7pm. \nWe will screen 3 short films live and in person together at Yellow Studio. In between each screening\, we’ll open the floor to discussion. All 3 films will fall under the umbrella of a female-centric theme. \n  \nFilm lineup: \nReneepoptosis\, Japan/USA\, 2018\, Best Animation at Sundance\, Renee Zhan’s short film is a provocative exploration of self. Three Renees go on a quest to find God—who is also Renee. \nI’m Not a Robot\, Netherlands/Belgium\, 2025\, Winner of the 2025 Academy Award for Best Live-Action Short. Victoria Warmerdam’s short film\, a series of failed Captcha tests plunges a woman into a strange new reality. \nBus 44\, China and Hong Kong\, 2001\, In Dayyan Eng’s short film\, set in the outskirts of a small town\, a bus driver and her passengers encounter highway robbers. “Bus 44” carries a universal theme that travels across all boundaries and societies\, trespassing the dark side and bright side of human behavior. \nBeth will send links to the films a week or so before November 12 so that people can watch beforehand if they’d like (watching before is not required though). \n\n\nThis session’s conversation will be led by Beth on topics from the film such as theme\, style\, genre and more! \nThe Yellow Studio Film Club is a group of women who are interested in watching and discussing female-centric stories that have been on the big screen. Each month\, a different film will be chosen – selections will vary in terms of genre and time period but will always involve a female-centric theme and/or be written and/or directed by a woman. Once a month the group will meet to discuss the various aspects of the chosen film. Meetings will be informal and open to any YS Member who has a passion\, interest and/or curiosity about movies.\n  \n\nYellow Studio Member RSVP required.\n  \nHosted by Beth Spitalny
