It will feature works of art in oils, acrylics, watercolor, photography and multi-media, all focusing on the rural life theme, according to Ellen Gieniewicz, the Utica Art Association’s chairwo man for the event _ “This is our way of showing an appreciation for rural life and for the farmers who work so hard to produce our food supply,” she said. Tony Schlesier, membership manager for Eastern, said he hoped the show would “encourage an understanding of the farming community, especially dairy farming.” ‘The average citizen may not realize it but agriculture is the number one industry in New York,” said Schlesier, who him- self lives on a farm in the Otsego County hamlet of Hartwick. “And dairying is the leading segment of New York agriculture.” In fact he added. New York State is third in the country in milk production, even though “the decade of the 1980 s has seen over 3,000 New York dairy farmers go out of business”.
