SUMMARY:Wine Liberated book launch with Adam Huss
DESCRIPTION:Autumn Leaves is proud to welcome Finger Lakes-based vintner and podcaster Adam Huss for the local book launch of Wine Liberated: The Ecological Revolution and the Vintners Inspiring Change (Chelsea Green Publishing\, 2026). \nOver the last eighty years\, wine has developed into a global monoculture—but an eclectic group of vintner rebels are redefining the culture and creation of wine. Since 2019\, Adam L. Huss\, winemaker and host of the popular podcast Beyond Organic Wine\, has been seeking out\, interviewing\, and learning from a revolutionary group of producers who are pushing wine beyond the boundaries of the industry’s hegemony. Wine Liberated explores the big questions about what wine is and what it can become when it’s ecologically minded\, diverse\, and even more delicious. \n“This book gets at something I think about constantly—that wine is agriculture\, culture\, and place before it’s ever a commodity with a score. It’s a refreshing\, clear-eyed read that made me think differently about wine\, even after a lifetime in it. A revolutionary point of view\, and something we all need to read these days.” —Rajat Parr\, James Beard Award–winning sommelier; winemaker\, Phelan Farm \nThis event is free. Join us upstairs on the mezzanine. Keep in mind\, seating is limited. Yes\, there will be wine. \nAbout the author:\nAdam Huss is a wine grower\, winery owner\, and the host the Beyond Organic Wine Podcast. He has interviewed over 180 wine producers\, scientists\, and farmers from around the world. Adam is the founder of Crenshaw Cru Winegarden and Centralas\, a winery headquartered in South Los Angeles. He recently relocated to the Finger Lakes region of New York State\, where he plans to develop an experimentation site for married vines\, which are co-planted perennial polycultures made of vines growing on living trees supported by an understory of other beneficial plants. Follow him on Instagram at @organicwinepodcast.

SUMMARY:A History of The Old Stone Heap
DESCRIPTION:Author Jean Cochrane will tell stories from her research about The Old Stone Heap\, the oldest standing home in Ithaca.  \nThe many lives of this home\, also known as Davenport’s Tavern\, have engaged a full arc of community life across more than two centuries. From the Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫʔ to pioneer settlers on a farm that wrapped around the Cayuga Inlet to West Hill; from village presidents to professors; from tenant farmers to an Arts and Crafts acolyte; from the Voice of Cornell Football to a grumpy old man whose deathbed testament left the Heap in limbo for years. Images of this New World Dutch stone house will illustrate its architectural uniqueness and multiple transformations across time\, including rare scenes from a Wharton Brothers silent film. Sparked by curiosity about Cochrane’s ancestors’ interlude here as dairy farmers\, her research weaves together social and architectural history to reveal a home with “one of the finest views in Tompkins County.” \nThis presentation will include a powerpoint and Q&A

SUMMARY:Chile In Their Hearts with John Dinges
DESCRIPTION:Autumn Leaves is proud to welcome award-winning reporter John Dinges\, author of The Condor Years: How Pinochet and His Allies Brought Terrorism to Three Continents. He’ll be here to discuss his new book Chile in Their Hearts: The Untold Story of Two Americans Who Went Missing After the Coup (University of California Press\, 2025). \nSet against the romance of revolution and the terror of a military coup\, this arresting mystery is also a reckoning with the callousness of U.S. foreign policy … John Dinges scoured U.S. and Chilean archives and interviewed new witnesses to reveal the true story of the 1973 killings of Charles Horman and Frank Teruggi. Chile in Their Hearts is a compelling adventure of the two Americans’ lives against the backdrop of U.S. intervention in Chile. \nRaymond B. Craib\, Professor of History at Cornell University and author of Adventure Capitalism (PM Press\, 2022)\, will moderate. \nThis event is free. Join us upstairs on the mezzanine. Keep in mind\, seating is limited.

SUMMARY:Max Childs & Louistin
DESCRIPTION:Max Childs and his band bring an energetic and intimate performance that pushes the boundaries of live pop music. Raised in Upstate\, NY\, Max has been performing across the upper east coast since 2015 headlining and supporting artists such as Danielle Ponder\, Juice\, and Nahko and Medicine for the People. Having performed at The Great Blue Heron Music Festival\, Finger Lakes Grassroots\, and Finger Lakes Thaw Max’s music has touched audiences far and wide. \nLouiston is based in Ithaca and Trumansburg\, NY\, in the heart of Upstate New York’s Finger Lakes region\, Louiston’s acoustic-centered Americana isn’t exclusively folk\, indie\, rock n’ roll\, country\, bluegrass-ish nor ragtime; it’s all of those genres – and more – mixed into the pot and simmered over medium heat\, with dashes of melodic skate punk and bebop jazz to taste.

SUMMARY:It Depends: An Author's Practical Guide to Debut Year - Conversation & Signing
DESCRIPTION:Join local author M. Stevenson to celebrate the release of her latest book\, of It Depends: An Author’s Practical Guide to Debut Year in conversation with Jennifer Savran Kelly! \nAbout the author: M. Stevenson is the author of Behooved\, This Treacherous Night\, and other novels for adults and teens. A graduate of Brown University (BA\, Geology-Biology) and the University of Idaho (MEd\, Environmental Education)\, she has worked as an outdoor educator\, wilderness skills instructor\, and science teacher. She is based in the Finger Lakes region of New York\, where she can often be spotted wandering the woods talking to birds and plants. Find her online at mstevensonbooks.com. \nAbout the book: What happens after I accept an offer? When can I announce my book? What if I need more time on my edits? How do I run a preorder campaign?Getting a book deal is the achievement of a lifelong dream. But after the champagne pops\, the questions pour in. Even after all your research\, navigating the publishing landscape can quickly feel overwhelming. Most existing resources focus on writing your manuscript and getting an agent\, not on the nuts and bolts of what happens between receiving an offer and releasing your debut.This book answers all the most common questions you have—or didn’t know you’d have—about your debut year. With examples and templates\, logistical tips\, walk-throughs of editorial processes\, and more\, It Depends is your practical guide to not just surviving your debut year\, but putting your book out into the world as an informed and empowered author. \nAbout the conversation partner: Jennifer Savran Kelly lives in upstate New York\, where she writes\, bind books\, and works as a production editor at Cornell University Press. Jennifer’s debut novel Endpapers (Algonquin\, 2023) was a finalist for a 2024 Lambda Literary Award and a fall/winter 2023 Indies Introduce pick. It won a grant from the Barbara Deming Memorial Foundation and was selected as a finalist for the James Jones First Novel Fellowship. \nJennifer’s short work has been published in Short Story\, Long; Potomac Review; Black Warrior Review; Trampset; Green Mountains Review; and elsewhere.

SUMMARY:"We Survived the Night" - Gayogohó:nǫˀ Learning Project Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join the Gayogohó:nǫˀ Learning Project for discussion of Julian Brave NoiseCat’s We Survived the Night. \nAbout the Book: Julian Brave NoiseCat’s childhood was rich with culture and contradictions. When his Secwépemc and St’at’imc father\, an artist haunted by a turbulent past\, abandoned the family\, NoiseCat and his non-Native mother were embraced by the urban Native community in Oakland\, California\, as well as by family on the Canim Lake Indian Reserve in British Columbia. In his father’s absence\, NoiseCat immersed himself in Native history and culture to understand the man he seldom saw—his past\, his story\, where he came from—and\, by extension\, himself. \nDrawing from five years of on-the-ground reporting\, We Survived the Night paints a profound and unforgettable portrait of contemporary Indigenous life\, alongside an intimate and deeply powerful reckoning between a father and a son. A soulful\, formally daring\, and indelible work from an important new voice.
