SUMMARY:Non-NYMS Event:  Curious Allies: Mutualism in Fungi\, Parasites\, and Carnivores
DESCRIPTION:One of New York Mycological Society’s very own members\, Katy Wang (katywangstudio.com) has some of their original art work featured in the fifth New York Botanical Garden triennial\, which starts on May 18th and runs up and through October 27th. \nCurious Allies: Mutualism in Fungi\, Parasites and Carnivores\, will open at the New York Botanical Garden on May 18\, alongside the garden-wide exhibition Wonderland: Curious Nature. Artworks have been selected for this Fifth Triennial by a jury team of Joanna Groarke\, Robin Jess\, Patricia Jonas\, and Susan Mintun. Chosen are 48 artworks from artists in the US\, Brazil\, Canada\, India\, Indonesia\, Ireland\, Japan\, South Africa\, and the UK. The artworks included illustrate various elements of the theme\, examining important and often unobserved relationships fungi\, lichens\, mycotrophic\, parasitic\, and carnivorous plants have with other plants and animals. Mushrooms and fungi serve as decomposers\, form networks between plants\, and can clean up environmental toxins. Lichens are themselves relationships between fungi and a chlorophyll-containing bacteria or algae. Parasitic plants attach directly to a host and draw nutrients from the host\, sometimes harming the host. And carnivorous plants supplement nutrients from soil and water with a diet of insects\, consuming them for additional nutrients. \nAll of these organisms develop relationships that are critical to functioning ecosystems\, but many times their impact is not fully appreciated. This exhibition hopes to shine a light on the many environmental benefits derived from these mutualistic relationships and new discoveries being made about their impacts. \nArtists with work included are: Susan Benjamin\, Margaret Best\, Jessica Daigle\, Rebecca Davies\, Maria Alice deRezende\, Ronda Dick\, Shevaun Doherty\, Jean Emmons\, Akiko Enokido\, Christiane Fashek\, Lara Gastinger\, Janet Goltz\, Prerna Gupta\, Yoko Harada\, Erika Hargesheimer\, Albina P. Herron\, Asuka Hishiki\, Ann Hoffenberg\, Mariko Ikeda\, Mieko Ishikawa\, Karen Kluglein\, Patricia Luppino\, Lucy Martin\, Tammy S. McEntee\, Sarah Morrish\, Eunike Nugroho\, Barbara Oozeerally\, Nina Petrochko\, Sengmany Phommachakr\, Linda Powers\, Theresa Ream\, Gillian Rice\, Betsy Rogers-Knox\, Daleen Roodt\, Elaine Searle\, Beverly Simone\, Kim Spink\, Jane Sturgeon\, Rose Torres\, Donnett Vanek\, Janene Walkky\, Yuan Yuan Wang\, Carol Woodin\, and Fatima Zagonel.\nIn I have two paintings in the show. The show is located in Ross Gallery\, which is located on the side entrance of the Mertz Library building.

SUMMARY:Learn how to do fungal DNA sequencing October 13!
DESCRIPTION:NYMS member Sally Kong is running another one of our ever popular DNA barcoding workshops where participants will learn how to extract fungal DNA\, amplify it\, perform gel electrophoresis and learn about how to interpret a sequence. \nSally is a software engineer\, artist\, and hobby biologist based in Brooklyn\, New York. For the past six years she’s built software for feature animation and games. Outside of work\, she spends most of her time at the community biology lab Genspace and is currently the lead of the community project Microbial Reef\, exploring the impact of oyster reefs on microbial communities and the biogeochemical cycling in local waterways. \nRecently\, in collaboration with NYMS she led the Roots of Renewal internship program teaching science\, art\, and sustainability practices to AAPI youth in Sunset Park through the lens of mycelium. \nShe’s excited to welcome other members to her home for the barcoding workshop! \nThe 3 hour workshop will take place on Sunday October 13 at 3pm in Red Hook Brooklyn. \nCost is $10 to cover pipette tips\, tubes\, reagents and Sanger sequencing. \nThis is a hands-on workshops so attendance is very limited. No prior knowledge is required. \nIf you are interested please email president@newyorkmyc.org with a short description of why you are interested in doing this workshop.

SUMMARY:COMA 2024 Clark Rogerson Foray
DESCRIPTION:For 2024\, we will be at the Berkshire Hills Eisenberg Camp\, an accessible 460-acre facility in Copake\, NY. The secluded site features a private lake and comfortable (“motel-style”) accommodations. Foraging on campus and in nearby parks is reliably outstanding. We usually identify and record close to 400 species and will have a team of mycologists and expert identifiers on hand throughout the event. \nThe Ursula Hoffmann scholarship is intended to support the recipient’s attendance at COMA’s annual Clark Rogerson Foray. \nRegister Here\nOur roster of invited mycologists includes: \n\nDr. Roz Lowen\, ascomycete expert\, and professor of mycology\nBill Yule\, Connecticut River naturalist\, and bolete expert\nJohn Plischke III\, author of Good Mushroom\, Bad Mushroom\nRick Van de Poll\, nationally recognized mycologist and instructor.\nDianna Smith\, past president of NEMF and founder of PVMA\n\nFeaturing Julie O’Grady\, Chief Mycophagy Chef. \nOvernight Accommodations\nThe 4-day fee includes 3 nights’ lodging and 8 meals\, from dinner on Friday to breakfast on Monday. (Please bring your lunch on Friday.) All rooms will be double-occupancy unless you elect to pay for the entire room yourself*. If you do not have a roommate chosen\, we will select one for you. \n\nMushroom Walks\nHunt mushrooms to your heart’s content\, both right on the property at nearby state parks. Learn in the field from expert mycologists. At the end of the Foray\, the mycologists will give “table talks\,” pointing out the weekend’s most interesting and exciting finds. \nEducational Programs\nAfternoon and evening programs will expand your fungal knowledge. Previous programs have covered a wide variety of topics. \nLive Auction\nDonate anything mushroom or outdoor-related\, including books\, magazines\, posters\, artwork\, houseware\, clothing\, and games. Keep your eyes peeled on your next stop at a yard sale. Self-made artwork\, t-shirts\, jewelry\, crafts\, jams\, jellies\, or dried mushrooms also make for sought-after prizes. \nScholarships\nWe strongly encourage members to apply for funding through COMA’s Scholarship Programs.
