Outdoor dining, live music, twinkle lights and a soft autumn sunset over the Catskill Mountains set the tone for this intimate dining experience in Freehold, NY. Chef Alban Plotkin will prepare a feast with local produce and chicken from Black Horse Farms, Darlin’ Doe Farm, Heather Ridge Farm and Story Farms, featuring bread from the Catskill Bread Company and chutney from Atina Foods. The “cherry on top” is desserts by Mackenzie Zajac and 3 Sisters Catskill with vegan and gluten free options. Musical stylings by local singer-songwriter Welsey Harper and his band. Dinner guests eat on hand made ceramic plates by Asia Sosnowski, FAEx’s Ceramics Facilitator, and decorated by many local artists. Each guest will take home their unique dish at the end of the night. Bands will perform intermittently throughout the night. Wine and local beer will be available by donation. Event design by Liz Shaw Design.
Raffle tickets are on sale leading up to and at the event for $10 each. Prizes include one weekend stay and one weeklong stay for up to six guests at FAEx’s newly-completed three-bedroom residency house, with gorgeous views of the Catskill Mountains! More prizes to be announced.

FAEx is a 501(c)3 non-profit artist residency program for visual and interdisciplinary artists invested in social justice, environmental sustainability, and community engagement. Since 2012, Artists-in-residence have lived and worked onsite using studio spaces and workshops in the repurposed garage and dairy barn. We also offer studio spaces to Greene County artists and makers. The facility, on 57 acres of land in the Catskill Mountains, includes artist studios, organic garden and hiking trails. FAEx encourages an interdisciplinary and conservation-oriented approach to art making. We provide opportunities for artists to deepen their connection with the earth and their communities.
The event features tours of the facilities and the newly completed three-bedroom house that will host up to six artists-in-residence.
Special thanks to Village Common Mercantile for selling tickets!
