The background features a whimsical, patterned design with floral and leafy motifs. Centered on the right, an illustration shows a Regency-era woman lounging on an ornate, red-patterned chair, gazing at herself in an antique, oval mirror. The dates, December 13–15, and venue, Elayne P. Bernstein Theatre, are highlighted in bold yellow and white text, with a red 'Get Tickets' button below.

Ambitious plans are now in the works to develop the the arts identity of the (roughly) Mohawk Trail, turning the area into a seriously juiced-up cultural destination. The Mohawk Theater, Western Gateway Heritage State Park, and Harriman Airport are all part of the calculus of bringing people to North County for weekends, rather than just day trips.

Tammy and I were both at an unveiling / press conference Saturday, December 5, at the Western Gateway Heritage State Park that featured former Governors Mike Dukakis and Bill Weld, as well as architect Frank Gehry. We kick around some thoughts about this early stage of the process, and after you listen to this episode (or maybe before, even…) head on over to iBerkshires.com to read her story on the press event/unveiling.
