During Women’s History Month, as the winter season comes to an end and spring break is right around the corner, the Broome County Arts Council’s First Friday returns for the month of March. After almost 20 years since being founded by a “creative trio of women,” First Friday events continue to captivate locals and the like. All information in this article can be found at the Broome County Arts Council website.

March 4 to March 25 at Orazio Salati Studio & Gallery (204 State St.)

Lori Farist, a painter from upstate New York who illustrated women that “dedicated their lives to bring balance and harmony to the world,” will have her work on display.

March 4 to March 28 at Bundy Museum of History and Art (129 Main St.)

Artist Miguel Amaro-Santiago will showcase the exhibition “Identity Disturbance,” in which he “[draws] on imagery from the natural world.” General themes deal with “transformation, or some kind of hybridization of life forms, and moving from one stage of life to the next.” Some imagery will be darker, such as “rot and decay,” but the imagery plays a part in the life cycle.
